My favorite quote is this one:

(about scolari)I don't think he speaks English, does he?

Essien hits back:

didn't fergie say that last year, we seemed to have had a good run :D I'm excited for next season Fergie's just upset cause his boyfriend won't say if he's staying or going.

It's funny that essien says manchester isnt our real competition, and fergie says were not his, but clearly the only 2 teams really competing the last few years has been us two. So we are the only competition they should be scared of.

Lay off the whiskey Fergie.

This might not be a bad thing, because he's deluded enough to think that we won't compete against them, we'll just creep up behind then and steal the glory :D

And aswell, we play the mancs pretty early in the season, if he's saying we won't be a threat, he'll field a poor side and we'll kick the hell out of them!

Probably won't happen, but you never know...

He's an idiot, and if you read between the lines, its obvious he doesnt really believe this drivel he's spouting:

"He doesnt speak English, does he?"

Yeah, he definitely doesnt. He only shocked the British press with his linguistic skills in the most highly billed press conference of the summer. Moron.

I think it says it all that Manc fans are all taking this as a big joke rather than a real statement of intent. And Essien shouldve kept his mouth shut. Let them do the talking, focus on the winning

im delighted with fergies comments cause its so obvious that we are the biggest test for them that it can only be ol man fergies 'mind games' (which are sh*t by the way)to try and get us all wound up and and the team wound up,which in his mind equates to us stumbling and havin a bad start cause his wonderful mind tactics have got us so annoyed. let him keep talkin all he wants but lets not forget scholes,giggs,van dersar,neville! just a couple of old timers of the top of my head :D

[Lofty]

Mind games indeed. And demonstrably meaningless sh*te if you look at the Manc team compared by Sky Sports, consisting as it did mostly of reserve and junior players, to a far more experienced looking Chelsea XI.

[Modueke]

Saying this sh*t will make him look even more of a c**t at the end of the season.

Maybe Rafa should let him know saying this sort of thing, only makes us fight more! He learnt the lesson with Drogba a few months back!

[Scottish-Chelsea]

Wouldnt it be great when we win the league that Essien came out and said "Told You So" you manure twat.

It's funny he thinks Liverpool will be a main threat? :D :D
