The College Dropout

Rafa Benitez has managed teams in the CL for the last decade. The last 2 jobs he has taken have been the European Champions. Is Newcastle United under Mike Ashley the logical next step? Martinez? More likely. But didn't he turn down Liverpool?

I believe we'll need to go for someone from abroad or unproven from the lower divisions. The next Moyes, the next Martinez, even the next Lambert. Anyone with any stock will think they can go to a more stable/better situation. As a club, we either challenge for Europe or the manager is likely to get the chop imminently.

A lot of delusions here. I highly doubt either Rafa or Martinez would consider us.

SAF levels of delusion.

Lambert reminds me of Fergie with his delusional spiel.

Torres can't and won't score like. But his overall game is much better than Ba's.

Hazard's probably ran himself out of the EL final

Yes. Mostly due to experience at this level.

Villa absolutely cannot play on the back foot.

Enough with sweeping statements. This is Hazard's first season in a really top league. He's 3 years younger than Mata at 22. Give the lad some time.

Erm, if by basically the type of player you really mean "basically the same tone of brown" then yes. If it was the original, then hell no.

Congratulations Frank Lampard. Great left foot shot, deflected obviously. 202 Chelsea goals. Record breaker.

With the season they've had and the manager Lambert is. They'll want to end the season as strong as possible will Villa. EVERYONE wrote them off 3 months ago. Too young etc. they have a chance to finish on a true high note.

I've watched a lot of them in the second part of the season. They can't defend like. But the way they go for the win is admirable. Scoring goals.

I know what you mean, they actually look like they want to beat a side. Yep. And not by small margins either.

I quite like Moses. He's raw, but injects a lot of energy and pace into their attacks. That is true. But his touch, passing, crossing, final ball etc. leagues behind Oscar, Mata and co. I guess his directness makes him unique.

It's not an agenda. The whole team has played poorly this season and Cisse is one of them. Really like the look of Villa. Just the mentality. Lambert's a brave manager ala KK and SBR. That mentality buys him a lot of credit.

Been saying this for months. Cisse is our joint top chance creator with Cabaye..... What Cisse creates his own chances? Chance creator? What does that even mean? He could create even more chances if he could link-up consistently. He creates chances for others which is my point... He doesn't really does he? I mean, we have both watched the same player.

Chelsea are over reliant on Ramires and Mata. Both look knackered. The others don't care.

Been saying this for months. Cisse is our joint top chance creator with Cabaye..... What Cisse creates his own chances? Chance creator? What does that even mean? He could create even more chances if he could link-up consistently.

Is it me or is Victor Moses consistently Chelsea's poorest attacking midfielder? I'm sure Marin must be at least, as good.

Been saying this for months.

He's doesn't look like an athlete.

The last couple pages are terrible. Appalling.

Injuries happen. AVB's slightly below par if they don't finish 4th.
