I think my only issue with that would be that Chelsea trying to recreate Barcelona is what they brought AVB in for, and that failed spectacularly because of the old guard. I can see what they're trying to do, though, so I assume that Terry / Drogba will be moving on this summer. With Torres suddenly finding a pair of shooting boots somewhere in Stamford Bridge, it might actually work. But the egos must be kept in check.

I don't think Chelsea has the rear guard settled yet. Luiz is still comical at times, Cahill is...an oddity. That one will be interesting to watch, and Chelsea could do with an up and coming left back to take over for Cashley, and augment Bosingwa (lol).

Sturridge, to me, needs to play central, he's an idiot on the wings because he doesn't look up enough.

Di Matteo should, based on his body of work, get the job, but knowing Roman he won't give it to him. He needs a sexy name leading his team lol.


Anybody else watching Serie A right now? Roma are just in shambles right now. BarceRoma my arse!

Poor, poor Blackburn.

Watched the match vs. Wigan the other day. Like the announcer was saying, it's never nice to see a team relegated from the Premier league.

I'm glad Wigan will come back next year. maybe more consistency can put them higher up the table next season.


It's not too far-fetched to think of any team being relegated. After that 8-2 loss to Man U last year, Arsenal were looking like relegation material...

Go Gunners (!) Victory gives us 3rd place ======

thanks fulop!

Congrats Man City (!) Nasri and Clichy got what they were looking for . . .

Speaking of Samir Nasri...

Samir Nasri mocks Arsenal's third-place finish following Manchester City's Premier League title - Telegraph

A few excerpts:


Followed with:


What a class act.

Sami ur a c*nt, ur a c*nt, saaamiii ur a c*nt
nanananananananana

for what it's worth, Nasri & Arshavin were my favorite Arsenal players last season.

You can't really blame him for moving on, but at the end of the day: Samir is a c*nt (!_.)

CL final prediction time!:happydance: I predict Chelsea win!:tup: Why? Coz...

As a Gooner, it's basically choosing the lesser poison.

If Chelsea win, I have to suffer watching JT and Lamps lift the trophy and claim the first London side to win the UCL. But then I get to watch Sp*rs toil in misery every Thursday in the Europa League, sans Bale and Modric :icon17:

If Bayern win, I get to watch JT cry, and save the chance for the Arsenal to lift it for the Londoners first time. Then I'm banking on Sp*rs bottling it in the qualifiers.

...

Yeah, I'm going for Bayern on this one :icon17:

:(

:rofl2: I'm an Arsenal fan Jon, I can't bring myself to cheer for Chelsea in the CL final :icon17:

my 2nd favorite team is Chelsea :ugh2:

it would be nice to see Spurs out of the competition...

either way, i'm not cheering for either team - - :)

Fawk Chelsea!!!!!!




You're a br0 Jon but tomorrow I want Bayern to absolutely tear Chelsea apart. With that said, good luck :D
