shouldve had two pens so far tbf

 

That was a dive by Drogba imo. Look at it again and you'll clearly see Drogba lose possession of the ball, then throw himself on the floor like he usually does. His touch took the ball away from him.

 

 

Alves didn't deserve a yellow for that 'foul' but he's a cunt too, so i can't say i care much.

Easy to say in hindsight.

 

I think even at the time it was well documented that Souness wanted Anelka & Boa Morte, but someone else in the club wanted Owen & Luque. To be fair I don't remember too many complaints at the time.

On paper those two probably looked better options, Luque in La Liga was a top player period, ignore what happened when he joined. Owen was still a top striker with good pedigree, where as Anelka was the trouble making goalscorer, hindsight being the wonderful thing it is, Anelka and Boa Morte would have been better.

Nowhere near as good as Zidane's volley in the CL final. Talk about talking bollocks.

 

Remember though, this is Andy Gray so and English team will always be better than any other.

just because a player dives doesnt mean a foul hasn't been committed. these days the two are far from mutually exclusive.

"It was more difficult 'cos we knew Zidane could do that"

all the talent on the pitch and the best player so far is florent malouda. wouldve struggled to believe that a year, or even a few months, ago.

 

some on here would rather have Damien Duff going by the summer comments

 

or what was it? A poor man's Jonas  :lol:

I see the Arsenal of Spain are getting mullered, despite their prancing and 5 billion % possession.

Malouda was playing gash when we were linked with him. Did you fancy him to pick UP form here? I didn't. :lol:

I'm not sure if you were around at the time or not Nixon but most around these parts wanted Anelka at the time.

Both Chelsea full backs are struggling. Would have fancied Cole to do better against Messi too.

can't believe so many people dislike Duff

 

he's a top, top pro, great attitude, humble, full of good positive comments, obviously a very positive influence in the dressing room, on the pitch and around the club and on top of that, he could very well still be a great player. We need more Damien Duffs

Please nobody bite tonight. Last night was awful.

 

Are you accusing me of posting to get a reaction?

 

I post my opinions, I couldn't give a toss if a few upstarts can't handle it and react with abuse.

An off form Malouda would have still been our best attacking player this season by an absolute mile

Messi dominating another big game...

 

Yeah, because he was s*** against Real Madrid at the weekend.

 

Bless, another jumped up little tosser to bat off.

 

I said 'big game'. La Liga is like the SPL these days.
