He's turning 25 in a month, he's not a child anymore. He's been below average more often than not. How often do you say he has a good performance vs a bad one? He's been with us for a long time now, he's had plenty of chances to show that he belongs here. Simply, he does not. I wanted him to...

They both have had time. They played a bit last year and featured a lot this year due to injuries. They got more consistent time than Roberto ever did. They are both just stinking the place up. They have been bad, very bad. Roberto showed glimpses, so did Rafinhs...so did Thiago before then...

Real madrid will be in great shape to get replacements. They know they can sell Benzema to someone for at least 35mil despite turning 28 this month. 35mil towards 60mil for lewa is only 25mil loss. Same for Ronaldo. They can sell him to p$g for 40-50mil and psg won't blink to pay that either...

He was born in Germany, yes. Turkish parents though :D

People are also saying that we should pay ridiculous money to sign Laporte, when he's been nothing but average at best for a LONG time now. Stones has shown way more potential than Laporte and is more comfortable on the ball.

I don't see Bojan coming back to sit the bench. He looks truly happy at Stoke to be honest, he knows he's playing his best football ever there and he knows the fans not only love him, they appreciate him. And I'm not saying we treated Bojan poor either, just sayin' if he leaves Stoke it will be...

We need fullbacks who have pace; they need to be able to get back quickly and help the CBs after pressing foward.

Nice to hear both Bojan and Afellay are doing well at Stoke. I caught a few games in the past and Bojan looked great; have to admit I haven't watched Stoke yet this season. A few friends saw the game vs Citeh though and said they both played well too. Afellay always oozed quality, it's a shame...

Do you realize how young he was then...?! People give Munir and Sandro passes (on bad performances) now and they are 20, Gerard was much younger than that. He does suit the EPL and specifically Everton nicely, with Lukaku as a great target. He'd also be great for Liverpool, Beneteke being...

A lot of our players had good games- Alves, Iniesta, Sergio and I think Pique were great for the most part- Pique dribbled out of some tight situations and didn't make any big mistakes, despite them countering us hard. The midfield left the defense with their pants down for the goal, Pique had...

Fatigue is an excuse later in the game. His workrate was great as always, but he made some really sloppy passes early on and later in game and his touch has been off too. Shame he is off form, because Iniesta has been fantastic since coming back from injury.

Great young player, however, his agent is a tool and not only is his price AND wage demand outrageous, we couldn't afford it if we wanted to...which might be a good thing.

Nolito is a good player but I really don't see what he will actually bring to the table? Good liga experience, good squad player, but 18+ million? Why? He's almost 30...I rather just keep giving munir and Sandro time, if they don't pan out give the time to the next Masia player.

For the lack of better words, people are pulling these assumptions out of their asses. Mathieu is 32 already and he has shown no notable decrease in physical ability compared to last season. The guy is like 6'2 or 6'3 and is STILL faster than the vast majority of our team. I don't know about...

All the comments you're making are actually giving me a good laugh :D The people who said those things only watched him on youtube, if you followed him in Brazil you knew he was the real deal and had all the potential in the world to become what he is now.

When you really look at midfield there isn't much of a need either. The only way we can bring in a midfielder, especially a high profile one, will be if someone leaves. Iniesta, Rakitic, Rafinha, Arda and even Roberto has proven he can play CM. Even if we don't include Roberto- who is going to...

Neymar and Messi need to learn from Suarez how to take a penalty. Pick a spot, run up to it and kick it. No stutter step, no run in place and jog up to it from far away....no one step and kick it :lol:

People are very touchy here, including Thwix below. Sometimes I wonder if people start reading a paragraph, see something and fixate on it, and then fail to process everything else that was included in the paragraph. You don't simply lose a footballing brain, that is common sense. The sharpness...

Sell Hazard and keep Mourinho :lol: This is Mourinho's 3rd year there and he has an owner that will provide him with plenty of youth talent AND buy him star talent if he wants it. There is no reason for him to have Chelsea in this sort of predicament. You can blame Hazard, or half the team if...

It's amazing how some of these players can be rich beyond belief but still manage to mess up their lives, usually involved in the dumbest shit.
