Can you hear the drums Fernando!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! GET IN !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Hamstring strains, sprains that result from over-extension and trips and falls I can understand but 'torn muscles' are invaribly intentional over-exertion injuries.'Thigh anxiety' - cos here comes Henderson. Would much have preferred Adam Johnson.

The question I'm asking myself is why he's getting so badly injured so close to a major tournament (and Barry!)? What are Roy Hodgson's training methods? Torn muscles are at best avoidable at this stage of the prep. (including friendlies in regard to Gary Barry.) I agree with a previous poster, torn quads and hamstrings can take months to mend.

Evidence? What do you mean by 'evidence'? So it's all a fabrication is it? Really? It's not just this forum that has alluded top his questionable attitude on various levels.Firstly, 'No-one at Lille will mention his attitude....of course they won't; he's their number 1 asset and they'll want top dollar for him. Secondly, he has been known to to do an 'Adel Taarbet' and exit the stadium after being subbed and not just the once. His cryptic self-important tweets belie an ego the size of Belgium. The 'I will be playing in blue or maybe red next season BS!! Will I be in London or living in Manchester?? He will be a huge success wherever he ends up we know that.; but how many of the other 'elite players' have conducted their business in this way?? Show some class and respect for the clubs that are interested in you. He's basically saying I'll be the main man I will play exactly in 'this position' and regularly and build around me cos you're lucky to have me......cos I will bring you the UCL trophy......oh, wait a minute............This is the best & toughest league in the world. He's been a big fish in a small pond thus far........

There's nothing more dangerous and unpalatable than a young footballer who believes his own hype. We have a class number 10 in Juan Mata - lets spend our cash elsewhere and leave him to the Mancs. Nothing would please me more if were to publicly pull out of this proposed deal and telling this little ego maniac the precise reasons why. Jog on Hazard, we don't need you.....

We need to protect our left side - Robben. I'm not overly worried about Ribery. This? Cech Bosingwa - Luiz -- Cahill -- Bertrand Mikel Lampard Cole Kalou Drogba Mata

I hear Mascherano will be in central defense.......things looking a little brighter.

Cech, Bosingwa, Luiz, Terry, Cole, Lampard, Romeu, Meireles, Ramires, Torres, Mata. Subs: Turnbull, Essien, Malouda, Lukaku, Sturridge, Hutchinson, Bertrand.

If anyone can get you a goal.......really quite surprised at this

Lampard dropped for tonight's game........

I hope someone someone sticks one on Kalou in the dressing room. Handling it on the line as the ball's goal bound I can understand - but from 12 yards out? I hope this demonstrates to AVB that this lad has to go....

Boomshanka? Looooool. Check your bad self. I couldn't care less who younger Gers fans follow - they should be following Rangers FFS. I choose to opt out on certain elements you've eluded to there, does that make me less of a fan? My Mrs is Jewish - should I be supportin the Spuds? Any doubts about my previous 'generalisations' have gone. I feel vindicated now.

I think we're maybe looking at that article from different perspectives. I understand your (and probably many other Chelsea fans) rationale for having the Gers as a second team. I grew up with sectarianism in Glasgow & it was part of my life, - it was and still is endemic and it is part of the fabric of the city. I have to disagree with you but that article is full of sectarian rhetoric - trust me I know, I could paraphrase but I can't be @rsed. As a teenager at Ibrox I was as bad as the rest. It wasn't until I removed myself from that environment and changed my mind set that I woke up to it all. Do I still have that insatiable hatred towards Celtic? No, not anymore. It just rekindled some uncomfortable memories for me that's all..........this is just a personal opinion grounded in experience. Football should be about football.

Sorry but this article makes me feel very uncomfortable. It's peppered with sectarian nonsense that has no place in British football. I'm Glaswegian (Govan) - left in 87 to pursue a career in London (west). Rangers fan and regular supporter. Like me, anyone who who has been to an Old Firm match in Ibrox or Parkhead can testify to the palpable hatred, antagonism, and ensuing violence - even now. I never got that at the Bridge and I loved that......... It wasn't until I'd been away for a while and returned home that I realised what pathetic, pointless and parochial behaviour this truly was. I understand the history, affiliations and camaraderie but society has moved on hasn't it? There is no place for racism so there should equally be no place for sectarianism. Yes we have a 'relationship' with Rangers but what is it truly based on; and are we all comfortable with that? The general footballing populous in London couldn't give a monkeys' about the SPL and any of the teams in it - as I'm frequently informed. I'm glad the younger supporters don't 'appreciate' the history This is a great site. I love it - I don't usually contribute but I felt I had to. Sorry if I've upset anyone *ducks*
