Shak

Good post. None of this will happen though, sadly. Maybe scrapping the Europa League and expanding the CL. The big clubs control the power and have no interest in doing things for the good of the game.

Just seen this. Seems a bit shit, was inevitable though. Best of luck to him if he does go.

A 'no comment' would be read into and twisted I'm sure, at least if be did it now given his history of commenting on speculation. If he did it consistently over an extended period of time though I'd imagine after a while people would get the message. You'd still have some people looking to twist it every time, but I couldn't envisage them getting much traction with it. I've long given up listening to a word the man says about anything though.

Cazorla's second today is good fun to compare to Tiote last week.

I just assume nothing good will happen. It's easier this way.

If we could get any sort of decent fee for him and were willing to spend the money on a replacement I'd move him on. There's still a decent player in there somewhere but even when he's in form I don't think he's a good fit for what we need as our lone striker in the current system. We need someone who's good with his back to goal and can give us some sort of physical presence up there, which just isn't Cisse's game. The only way we'll see the best of him again is if we revert to a 4-4-2 and buy a target man to play alongside him. But with our current squad that'll require a massive overhaul of personnel which won't happen, so I'd rather we just shipped Cisse out and brought in someone who's a better fit.

Surprised we're getting anything for him to be honest. I'll be happy when he's gone, I can go back to liking him then.

A fitting finale.

Gouff has been so shit.

Rubbish from Remy. Cisse and HBA on for Gouff and Anita/Siss please, go at these cunts.

I've never seen a team actually convince the ref to change his mind before. Nice precedent to set.

What a woeful fucking decision.

You know full well this shit is all your fault by the way, Mike.

How slow is your stream? We're not the blue team, Shak. Feel stupid for celebrating the goal now.

We've looked good so far IMO.

Good think we don't have Ben Arfa starting, he'd have let Kolarov in behind there.

Run faster, jump higher. The key to success at any level.

Had a shocker today, no doubt. Made some strides this season but today was a pretty blatant reminder of some of his significant limitations/failings as a manager. Extremely disappointing.

Who came on?

Poxy fucking goal for Chelsea.

No laptop today so haven't been able to watch. Thinking I've picked a good one to miss.

Oscar man, just score the fucking goal you complete wanker.

Gouffy pls
