capriccioso 2,545 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 SALOMON KALOU was warned by Andre Villas-Boas that he would not play for Chelsea again unless he signed a new deal.http://www.thesun.co...elsea-deal.htmlIt was on mirrorfootball yesterday. It's either bollocks or Sala is even more of a gentleman than I believe him to be. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLion. 21,491 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 It's because he usually scores the last goal in 4-0 games after coming on as a sub.It's amazing how one tap-in screws with people's minds. The antichrist of Chelsea FC suddenly turns into an unsung hero. But I must admit, he didn't disappoint against Benfica, he played slightly above his standards. But his standard is something I don't want to see in Chelsea, or 80% of the squad for that matter.Come on mate, don't be so sour. If even I can congratulate him on a good game then so can you He played well (for once) and took his goal well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zolayes 14,489 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 Yeah he screw that up.Oh well at the moment I am happy with RDM.Hope he continues doing good, so the club give him a try.And hey, if after one season he turns out to be mediocre we will still have a descent squad! :blue scalf:sorry the word you want is "decent" ...although descent means going down ,,,who knows which you meant? capriccioso, CHOULO19 and Justin_3d 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted March 29, 2012 Share Posted March 29, 2012 I did give him credit by saying "he didn't disappoint".Which is something we rarely say about Kalou - and, in fairness, rarely have we said that about most of our players this season. manpe and LDN Blue 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And a goal is a goal, whether you score it when you're 31-0 up (thanks, Archie Thompson ) or drawing 0-0 in the 120th minute of the World Cup Final.

Tomo 21,751 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I didn't get to see the game, but Steve Bruce said Ryan was solid and always looking to get forward and ping crosses in, was he right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 I didn't get to see the game, but Steve Bruce said Ryan was solid and always looking to get forward and ping crosses in, was he right?Yup. He did very well in his PL start. On today's evidence, he certainly put in better crosses than Cole!And speaking of crosses, not sure if anyone notices this but Cole seem to specialize in drilling low crosses into the penalty box but with Bertrand, he can put in high accurate crosses into the box. Can we mould them together or something?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ja1 1,166 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 He has deserved more than the amount of appearances he's got this season. He's clearly a very capable young player, played well AGAIN tonight. Cole is getting old, and while he has improved recently he still needs rests every now and again, and hopefully next season well see Bertrand starting to start most games with Cole filling out when we need experience, as we can't keep relying on Cole, quite simply.

Because Bertrand i think will be like 25 by then... and it's best to start giving him games now. Infact it's kind of his last chance where he's in his remaining potential years (well so scientists say), i mean you could say that to Scott Parker, he would just laugh in your face.

Naked Mole Rat 437 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Finally, a fullback who can cross. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 9,937 Posted April 7, 2012 Share Posted April 7, 2012 Ryan was very good today easily our best player along with Mata! Impressed me a lot, he is basically a younger Cole with better crossing accuracy! SWEET! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
