Oh barak, I agree with all you say, but it is ironic that you complain about WUM but go on to use the acronym STD, which a long long long time ago used to mean Subscriber Trunk Dialing, but of course, now means Sexually Transmitted Disease!

1) I have no idea other Chelsea forums actually exist

 

2) I don't care if some one's a long time lurker or what... Nothing in the last page I have read from Las is wind up... you don't come on here as a newby as start accusing long timers of being WUM's... and while i'm at it ... what the f**k with this WUM stuff.... its sounds like an STD ,,,, can't we just type our words out so that those of us not up to date with text slang no what's going on!

 

Agreed. I had to google what WUM meant and found it's meaning on 'urban dictionary'

 

I guess to 'google' is also a recent addition to the Oxford dictionary

Does the term wind up merchant make more sense? He always tries to get a reaction from posters (negative one).

Anyway enough of that, I was just warning the guy not to get too fussed with Las7 as he is known to poach in convos and stir things up. (A bit hypocritical on my part as today I did the same to Las7) but if its helping someone out then oh well, I dont mind being a hypocrite.

Must have winded you up quite a bit for you to stalk me across forums. Unlike you though I don't hide behind a new nickname.

Stalking you? Hold onto your horses there cowboy.

I am not the only one you have wound up, you are an opportunist with whomever you can bait in. You havent changed I see.

Much as I like your name, Semper Fi, Barak is right.  It doesn't leave a good impression when you launch into battle the minute you arrive.  Las7 has been here a long time and I don't remember anyone else having a problem with him.

 

So why the name?  There is a thread somewhere in the Shed Lounge where we explain our names. Or you could start a newbie thread to introduce yourself.

Him getting injured in the warm up yesterday may have been a blessing in disguise rally cause Eto'o put in a great performance. Not to say Nando wouldn't have butnI have far more faith in Eto'o than Torres.

was a blessing for my fantasy team! had eto'o in assuming he would start as he is generally our 'home' striker. goal and an assist was very well received!

The real blessing was Ba's double.

It's just an old wives tale mate.

I gave you the forum, go look at his posts in there. Not an "old wives tales mate".

Not sure if the word battle was intended as a pun, but the name is fairly obvious, no?

Well, I did ask you earlier if you'd been in the marines, but maybe you didn't see that one.

It was muscular, a big surprise because he didn't go to the national team, he stayed with us and had his rest and training. Sometimes these things happen. In the warm-up he felt something in his groin, with muscles even with a little thing you are out for a couple of weeks. We lost him but the other two scored goals today, that's the reason we want to have three strikers in the squad. For strikers, a goal is always a vitamin. - Mourinho

The daily mail,(also known as daily fail) and ESPN report Torres could be sold to Inter in the summer for 24 million euro.

Definitely sounds too good to be true...

 

Oh, I see I missed a few pages. I'm sorry!

Any comments?

Anyone still prepared to argue that Torres is our no:1 striker?

Can't we give him away to a Spanish team for free while paying 95% of his wages? Just take him off.

I'd play Ba ahead of him now.

 

Granted Torres was coming back from an injury but how bad must Ba be in training not to get a start ahead of him.  

 

Pity. One decent striker and we'd walk this league.

We have one, Grandpa

I thought he was better yesterday than he normally is, not his fault he kept being called offside incorrectly.

 

He didn't lose the ball as often as he does and didn't fall over that often, which is certainly improvement.

 

Where was Eto'o though?

Being saved for Gala and Arsenal imo.

Here is a comment for you Just.

 

Fernando Torres should never start another game for Chelsea again.

 

At least not if the club want to compete with 11x11 players anyway.

 

It was a pitiful effort yesterday, perhaps even his lowest yet. Certainly the worst ive seen him when actually at the game where you tend to notice his 'runs' and effort just that little bit more. Every aspect of his game was utterly sub-standard, that is of course when he actually got involved. You cant win football matches when you have no centre forward, let alone League titles.

 

It needs to be put to bed at the end of the season. The club needs to accept the disaster once and for all and take the hit and swallow the losses. He needs to be removed from the playing staff and if that means he is sent on loan to Spain until the end of his contract with Chelsea paying 90% of his wages then so be it. It would still be far less damaging than having him at the club as an active squad member.

 

Just overwhelmingly sick and tired of it now,and utterly sick and tired of seeing Chelsea attempt to compete in football matches with a man down -  its like a bad joke that has long since outlived its punchline and it cant be allowed to continue any longer.

150% agree.... it's time to ditch, he should never play for us again. I'd rather see Eva strip of and have a go up front.
