there are quotes... but obviously, it's madness.

as I understand it, he's surely off to milan.

lippi is great. the most able to play attacking and defensively. but hiddink is obviously quality as well. I'm split on ruud.... great for us, but susequently not so good anywhere else. who knows- definately would bring quality attacking football.

(sarcasm intended) and a ? wow that's subtle. can you guess what's equally subtle?

never put cashley in the same bracket as paulo, please.

so far this thread does not deserve a giant picture of ballack's face. you are doing well at the moment, in other words.

and building the spine of the valencia and chelsea sides that went on to become league champions. while being a bloody nice bloke.

I heard affleck was very good in hollywoodland. I haven't seen it. damon is good, and you know it.

it was for you, really. I hear he'll be working at the peel soon.

he inherited an ageing side, and gave us one with players still playing and winning for us now. p.s.

ha. he isn't too concerned.

I thought it was impressive, but it becomes slightly fomulaic towards the end, but honsou and di caprio were great. I think di caprio was better in the departed, but honsou is very very good.

it was three, flat in front of maka.

sigh.

okay, barak, you've done it now. and there's no one to blame but yourself.

ha. why did lampard peak, why was zola rejuenvanated? coaching possibly? certainly in lamps' case. gronkjaer was a good player for us despite not being the same after his injury, petit, also did a good job and played through injury a lot. then there was the bringing through and developing of JT, the rise of cudicini into the side, the signings of lamps, gallas, maka, joe cole, johnson, duff, robben, cech... I think steve clarke also returned to chelsea under ranieri. but anyone who says we qualified for the CL in spite of ranieri is absolutely wrong and giving an opinion diamatrically opposite of the truth.

meanwhile, darius vassel is a great player. but back on topic-sheva's goals yesterday. both from short passes. okay, one from the other team, but there is the difference.

people who say that IMO take winning trophies for granted. CR got us into the CL, remember? and brought in so many important players. a flop he certainly was not.

we never had what would have been the horror show of a huth playing without terry (or without gallas doing all his work), but it would have been terrible. I think boulahrouz has done enough to have confidence in him as the third choice... his form obviously will pick up, but I'd like to not see him at right back again.

CR flopped for four seasons? nonsense.

boulahrouz is definately a lot better than huth. he had a particularly poor game against everton, but that was his first bad game in the middle IMO, and came off the back of being subbed as a sub at spurs (at rightback)- his confidence was shot to bits.

oh dear. you brought this on yourself.

all of you remember this thread as a suggestion of my power. more stupidity will see more giant faces of popular chelsea heroes. you have been warned.

what, with 20 goals a season and millions of assists?

heh. I advocated signing pirlo or xavi. it would have been fantastic in the old 433. so anyway, martin o'neill... he's sh*t, and is proving that, and I laughed as he signed john carew... I thought he was only a long ball idiot because of a lack of funds. discuss.
