  1. He hasn't been grafting in any way that's been effective of useful to the team. He's looked exhausted from the start.
  2. Our biggest variable going into next season. If he plays like has from the ACN on (inlcuding his games with Senegal), then he is nowhere good enough to be in our first team and is an injury prone player on high wages. I wish he would show something in the last two and a half games to make me think he'll continue to produce next season. His performances have been sluggish and inept.
  3. This is disgraceful. Genuinely. If we went to the Nou Camp and were eviscerated like this, I would be furious. To have this happen in front of ten people at fucking Wigan is an embarrassment.
  4. What? Do you think we're getting CL when we can't even beat wigan athletic? Haha. Today is a reality check, we being brought back down to earth today. Yeah, we've been riding on nothing but confidence for the first 35 GAMES. What a ridiculous line of thought.
  5. Do you often talk bad about people when they are stripping you and beating you senseless?
  6. :lol: Wolves have absolutely no interest in these last games. I actually feel quite terrible for their manager.
  7. Watch QPR and you will ask the same questions. Everyone wakes up when they look at the table in April. We haven't settled at all, yet.
  8. I like some of their players, but Wigan are essentially a waste of time and space. Let's relegate them.
  9. I don't think Marin fits in well with Chelsea. Di Matteo (who will get the job unless Guardiola asks for it) plays 4-2-3-1 almost always, and I don't believe he is good enough to replace Mata from the centre or athletic/hard-working enough to perform the yeoman duties this formation requires of wide players. Anyway, he is undoubtedly talented and better than the likes of Sturridge, so I am sure the 933 million Chelsea supporters in Africa will enjoy him.
  10. People forget that he's younger than the likes of Perch and Gary Cahill and plays a position that is dominated by older players throughout Europe. He's just entering his prime now and should be a fixture in our team for a very long time. However, he has also proven himself to be very susceptible to injury in his short career and that has to be considered. It's three consecutive seasons now that he's missed the majority of our matches and our transfer policy should reflect his inability to stay on the pitch.
  11. Will the Americans be showing it on a channel that exists in my realm of existence? (we spent 30 minutes yesterday in the television room trying to find this "FX") I'm not sure if I'll still be over here by that time, but I'd like to be able to watch it on television if so.
  12. The amount of people who have been "gutted" about the results the past two days has been ridiculous, imo. Let us finish 3rd or 4th before even thinking about how Chelsea affects us. The London team have a decent chance against either side because they are quite good and extremely experienced. Still, Bayern will be massive favourites.
  13. Mourinho simply left seconds after the goal.
  14. Players missing a final because of accumulative yellow cards. I've never understood it.
  15. This Alaba looks a fantastic prospect. Shame he chose Austria.
  16. Pepe is genuinely a disgrace to the game. Completely ridiculous.
  17. What has been earnt? Man U should be allowed to dominate ad infinitum because they have dominated in the past, and therefore built up more money than anyone else? They earn more money because their past success have given them more fans, more prestige, allowed them to construct some of the best facilities in the world, and given them a position of power and influence over all aspects of the game. It is a self-perpetuating cycle of dominance. The massive financial upheaval is an attempt to upset the position of such entities. There is no right way, there are only means and ends. At the end of things, we have still achieved our position by using our predatory financial position to remove the best assets from other clubs. We've played our part now and in the past. From my view, either input false equivalency measures (such as those in the American sports) or deal with the consequences of free spending. I don't particularly care where it has come from, frankly. Just last season, OM purchased two forwards for upwards of 30 million euro, why can I complain if someone comes in with even more money.
  18. The money being in the hands of different clubs than it was before isn't the end of anything. It is the change and progression that is indicative of all areas of life. Inevitably, in all leagues and tournaments, the teams that spend the most money generally win. I can accept this regardless of which club happens to be the one doing it. I cannot understand why people think things are different if Manchester United (who have a net spend of 40 million pound this year) win the league or one of the traditional giants win the Champions League. Is it because the names are different? Clubs will always rise and fall, and with the free market system of European football, massive investment is the most likely way for this to occur.
  19. Ishmael Miller. I still would have liked us to sign him, actually. He is an amazing talent. However, the players we've brought to the club in the last few seasons have performed to a level above what he is currently achieving, and I am quite pleased with the choices the club made.
  20. Gameiro is top class player, despite his struggles in the capital. I think he'll do well wherever he goes, which is likely to be one of the top clubs in Spain or Italy, in the opinion of myself.
