That would be @CaitlinCFC

That would be such a happy ending if you met up and struck up a bromance.

I’d love to dive into Oblivion again but I just can’t work out where I’m getting 100+ free hours from to commit to it.

I like Sancho.

Kovacic is starting for Man City. Not that anybody else cares.

At least tonight someone will have to do us a favour.
A draw would be nice though.

Have to train this goal scoring lark out of him if he wants to make it here

Nice! Fantastic trip....
September. Initially I was going on my tod (which I love), but when my sister lost her partner, I invited her to come along. We've been to NYC and Boston together 15 years ago, and also a couple of other trips with my brother in law too, and got along fine, so I thought she might enjoy it. It's hard to lose your love, after all. She had some time to think about it and she said yes. We do have separate hotel rooms, ten days would be a long time to spend together 24/7, but she's looking forward to it (and after admittedly some adjustment) so do I.

To be honest I’d take him for 20m. Hes a decent squad player at very best and we’re not going to find a squad player for that price, unless they’re 12 years old.

I don’t see much else pop up these days….not been able to see it for years.

I'm a respectable woman sort of when you do not know me, so I'm not going to ask for enlightenment here.


@nonotnowjim PM me 😁

I've been thinking about mediocrity lately. I started to support Chelsea in 1994, when we weren't setting the world on fire in the league. And I didn't care about that at all, I loved Chelsea even if the football was a bit rough around the edges. I didn't go over for a match until the 2000s, but when I did and we drew or lost, I still was excited and considered myself to be lucky to be a Blue. The occasional FA Cup made me jump up and down with excitement, I even flew over for a final (can't recall the year, perhaps the Villa final) just to watch it on a big screen in the So Bar.
That excitement for our club and our football has disappeared. I feel no connection to our players. If I can get that feeling back, that nothing else matters but Chelsea, even if we are mediocre with no chance of European football and only the occasional cup quarter final to look forward to, I would be ecstatic.

Great post mate.
I might add too , that our style of football is never going to produce an excited, emotional reaction from fans.
Fans never demand that players pass the ball a couple of yards sideways. We don't get excited at back passes and we don't passionately respond the way we play. And we don't demand that the team should slow the bloody tempo down if we look like we might inject a bit of pace .
Before Maresca got the team all playing his rigid system we were a joy to watch

Ok guys give it a rest now. It's getting so tedious I fear people may watch reruns of our performance against Legia Warsaw rather than read this twaddle.

This is a weird thread.

I must be in the minority here as one who actually likes Neto. I base this on what I see as opposed to “stats and data” which I think is load of b****** (the data has Sanchez in the top 10 keepers in Europe for f**** sake)!
He always puts a shift in and has a bit of attitude which I like and is direct. If we have to look at stats, without Pep-Lite’s anti football, his numbers would be better and in term of goals would be around 10 as opposed to 6 which I think is a decent return for a winger.
I think some of the younger crowd only compare wingers against Hazard which is unfair. In my experience of been going to the Bridge since 82, wingers can be the most exciting and equally the most frustrating as one week a world beater and the next they can’t do anything right. It’s a unique position where expectation is high. Where do I place Neto? I’ve seen a lot worse wingers and better over the years. Put Neto in the Mourinho’s mark 1 team (Duff/Robben) or Conte’s team (Hazard with either Willian or Pedro) I think he would look good in a system that fit his strengths. I’m not saying he is better than the names above but I think he would have been a good fit. Looking at Willian and Pedro are examples of what I mean about wingers always being hot and cold. Willian most of the time I thought was more farts than s*** and in his early years his goals returns were poor, if you only look at stats. Pedro could score a goal, work hard, however a lot of the time ran around like a headless chicken. Point being both Pedro and Willian can be great one week and rubbish the next, if your name is not Hazard, who wasn’t great all the time, then that is basically par for a winger….

He was looking sharp at Cobham earlier today 😁

My days as a sexual predator? We swore we would never talk of that again!

The take away thing here is that I'm lovely.
That's everybody's take, right?
