^ppfftt, we're a big club and when everyone ruled us out of the group with Barca, Benfica & Moscow we got to the last 16. We don't have the tv money you guys do, but we still perform well considering.

We deserve automatic, co-efficient is a lot of shit.

Sick Fabregas goal! Chelsea!!!!!!!!!!(Massive lol @ Arsenal )

[ehbes]

Chelsea scored against the Chelsea B team. Yawn

swear down he looks less attractive now in that shirt

[murky21]

why lol at arsenal? barbs between competitors is expected but your 'banter' is poor and really out of context - he left us a long time ago both have moved on just enjoy your player

lot of hype about Quintero joining afc right now, doesn't really make any sense for a few reasons but would be siiick.

Would most likely be Cazorla's replacement if true.. Hope not




Fabregas means nothing to me any more, just another ex player

Still pissed we've sold Lukaku and decided to keep Torres, now being linked with Cavani

[Forum]

Sounds suspiciously like Khedira will see out his contract and move to Bayern for free next summer..

[Johoosh]

Oh dear why'd Chelsea sell Lukaku.

May have been a tad overhyped but he's surely one of the better young strikers in the world & his value wouldve only risen?

Fear not, that won't happen. I know you think he's shite but I'll be happy if he stays. In any case he can't get any worse than he's been during the second half of last season.

At least I hope so

Apparently has a massive ego, sounds like Maureenho wasn't impressed with his attitude

We hate players who aren't big names, its a curse we have cause the big names normally underperform. I thought Sturridge was great despite being shoved onto the wings and looked great at Bolton, fucked him off.. I said we'd do the same to Lukaku, despite being great at West Brom and Everton, hes not seen as big enough for us. We always prefer established big named players over potential. Lukaku may have had a big ego but ironically thats Chelseas biggest problem at times and why we fuck off Sturridge who had a great season last year, Lukaku hes always shown promise and left with players like Torres and Eto'o

[Forum]

Reports have been that he refused to stay at Chelsea unless he was guaranteed no 1 striker, pretty stupid attitude for a 21 year old if that's true

Yeah definitely but that could be fabricated, he may have just wanted some first team football.. which he deserves imo. Didn't even get a chance.

We'll no doubt do the same to Courtois.. theres only so long international players performing great at club level will take being pushed out on loan constantly before wanting to play or leave. Chelseas striking problems last year and Lukaku on form is a no brainier.. if he demanded to start over Costa, fair enough let him go. It wouldn't surprise me if he was told to earn his place on the bench we're that bad with potential talent

[murky21]

nah thats bullshit about expecting to be no.1 imo
he's got loaned out last season even though he played sick at west brom - enough to give anyone doubt about whether they are gonna get game time, fair enough tbh

[rockonin]

Lukaku can fuck off. Good riddance. He's not good enough to be a no 1 striker for Chelsea. We're Chelsea not Everton. Tnuc.

[Muncey]

He's not good enough to be a no 1 striker for Chelsea.

That mentality is why we've been stuck with Torres for so long. We see players as names and price tags too often, Torres has been with us for so long now based on his reputation initially and price tag recently (not being able to sell him as well lol). Hes probably not good enough, whos to say he won't be? Sturridge wasn't good enough at Chelsea in 2012, 2014 he finishes runner up top scorer.

This need to instantly perform is why we end up letting quality players go who haven't had time to grow and why we're left with utter shit who we can't get rid of because we overpaid for a name.

[Forum]

Torres won't go until his contract ends, any clubs that might have wanted him wouldn't be able to match his wages. The same reason we were stuck with the world's best striker for so long

[Muncey]

Yeah stuck with him but we still play him quite regularly for someone who'd have been long gone if we could flog him. Lukaku gets dumped out on loan while we're forced to play that overpriced waste of skin.
