Alvaro Morata
I was in the away end Saturday and it wasn't a 'small minority' singing the song - it was very loud. I personally don't have a problem with the song but if the club and Morata make it clear they don't want it sung then that's fine. What I have a problem with is the idea that people might get banned for it - fans will naturally self-censor after what Morata and the club said. I can guarantee you that if it gets started at another away there'll be loads of people shushing and trying to sing something over it, and the song will die and a new one will take its place. You can't ban thousands of people - and what about anyone singing 'Barcelona, Real Madrid, Tottenham are a load of y*ds'? What about 'there's no bacon at the Lane' while we're at it? I think we're all sensible enough to know that thousands of people in that away end are not anti-Semites. The point is they've successfully nipped it in the bud by condemning it - no need to ban an arbitrary handful of unlucky people out of 3,300. It's a complete overreaction. Say you don't want it sung - and yes, this will always be a tricky issue while Tottenham still call themselves y*ds, and move on. Up the Chels.

The John Obi Mikel Goal Scoring Thread
Ten years of service. Won everything there is to win. Colossal on so many big European nights. The man deserves great respect - good luck, and thanks for everything John.

Oscar - Little Diamond
If Oscar goes to China at the age of just 25 - when he should be right at his peak - it will confirm what lots of us thought about him. A talented player, but lacking the drive to translate that into becoming a consistent top-level performer. He just never had that ability to control a game. We could do some serious business with this £60 million (Sanchez, Verratti, Nainggolan anyone?). Thanks for the service anyway, 203 games and 38 goals is a significant contribution.

Brilliant news - will it 200 appearances tomorrow, assuming he plays. Mr Reliable, fits perfectly into our system - I can see him breaking into our top 10 highest appearance makers by the time he finally leaves.- Newbie - wanting to attend a Home match!
Also there's a pretty good chance the FA Cup match will reach general sale.- Newbie - wanting to attend a Home match!
You have to have posted a certain number of times - it's to stop touts selling tickets on here.- Kenedy officially signs for Chelsea
Potentially useful as a back up to Alonso, but it's hardly encouraging how few minutes he got at Watford.- FA Cup Draw
Leeds, Charlton (if they get past MK), Rochdale, Port Vale, Millwall Carlisle or Blackpool away please. Failing that let's have Barrow at home.- Lower league teams you'd like to see in the PL
Leeds, Sheffield United, Charlton - and having Millwall up for a couple of years again would be fun too.- Following Our Nearest & Dearest Rivals, 2016/2017

Hazard will be fine I think - according to Martinez it was 'just a knock on the calf'. - César 'Dave' Azpilicueta
