And affords crystal Pulis to only need a draw to screw Liverpool over. Palace are capable of a draw.

Ok.

Assuming we beat Newcastle at home (lol), that would give us 85 points. City would then need to win all of their remaining games, including Everton and Palace away, to win the title. A single draw and we win the league.

If they win all of their games in that run then they're just as worthy of winning the league as us. can't see it though.

Is it safe to assume he's either dead or in Colombian prison for incest with cousin?

Big black legsToure is back for City's next game, I can see them beating both Everton and Palace if he bothers to show up.

And City are more prone to dropping points than Liverpool, currently. Who also have to play Palace. Don't tie yourself in knots.
City going to steal win against Pulis this weekend and completely annoy him and he'll take it out on Liverpool.

I got it all figured out.


On a more serious note since I don't care who wins the pl as long as Mourinho doesn't win it Mirallas is out for the season for Everton. I like that.
 
Sounds very much like child trafficking to me.

I think it would be fair to say if you asked most people what trafficked children would be used for, they probably wouldn't say that it would be being taught at Europe's most elite football academy surrounded by experts with a higher standard of living than in their home country and likely a higher standard of education.

I'm not saying that the club couldn't do far far better but it's not likely that it wasn't with the parents permission and it's not like he's being pressed into slavery with no option to return to Cameroon if he so wished.

Barcelona aren't exactly coming out of this one without dirt on their hands, but there's an awful lot of people who just want to see the clubs image tarnished and will exaggerate the crimes it's committed. Barcelona deserve their punishment yes, but it doesn't need blowing out of proportion.

haha he's so weird man, I feel uncomfortable interacting with him most of the time!

I do hope he's okay though..
 
Jose Mourinho has confirmed that Petr Cech will miss the rest of the season with a dislocated shoulder

WHERE'S TURNBULL?! He can't be hard to find that fat bastard.
 
But it isn't anyone else. Of course Mourinho got more time than most other managers, also helps that unlike AVB the squad really likes him, unlike Benitez the fans really like him and unlike RDM he's actually a good manager. No offense to RDM, I love him and him winning CL for Chelsea is one of the most amazing things ever.

Yep. Mou's reputation is carrying him while he's slowly becoming a specialist in failure himself.

Child slaves though, mate.

Dangerously close to winning the league, with a side that still doesn't have a proper striker and in the semi final of CL, with a good first match to make it to the final. Eh. Enjoy AVB.


But what?

But they play bad football and should be ashamed of themselves. Play like Arsenal and be proud of never even getting close to winning it.

Here's another one: Chelsea have won more Champions League finals than Arsenal in the entire history of football.

I must say, the most impressive part of your season was getting here with the lack of a WC striker.

Next season will be pretty awesome for you guys.

Doncaster. We'll send JT over when hes not playing against Liverpool, see if his wife his home...
I assume he has a wife.

Well I remember his son scoring that great goal

If ATM gets a goal in Stamford Bridge then I think they will go through.

Me too. But still think this was the right thing to do, no way should Chelsea be too attacking when they are lacking both Hazard and Eto'o. Oscar is in terrible form and Torres is Torres. Fuck having to rely on that scoring a goal.

It is incredible how butthurt you get over this.
 
and yet... you're the one in here obsessing about Mourinho, being a jealous voyeur much like your manager.

This is boring as shit, but why would you expect Mourinho to play any other way.

If he were the manager of Bayern he would set his team up like this.

Can one of these journalists grow some balls in the next 5 minutes and ask Mourinho what century it is?

Chelsea aren't Bradford or some lower division team. They have spent an insane amount of money.

You know you can admit that your team plays shit football. It's ok. Mourinho isn't going to slap you through the tv.

and the most hilarious parts, discrediting what Mou did with Porto lol

He inherited a strong squad.

They had an easy route to the final.

One of the local papers reckons Louis Laing is on trial at Man United.

I am genuinely surprised we let him go, imo he is a real talent but he got a really bad injury. Just really surprised Man United are looking at him, though. He's 21 I think.

Yeah I'm doing great and I did enjoy my break. The negative results feel less painful when I'm not on GAF reading our club get slugged to hell and back over and over again. Top 4 and FA cup is what I hoped for at the start of the season and we're on course to deliver that.

Very satisfied.

Imagine tuning in to watch a team you don't like, headed up by a manager you despise, and then expecting to be entertained. I'd just turn off if it was me.

Hahaha people ripping into Chelsea and 'English football' again. Go ask Barca what their CL result was at the Calderon, or the plethora of Spanish clubs that have gone there this year.

Mourinho's job is to get Chelsea into the Champions League final, not to make an emaciated boy somewhere in Argentina cum a sock load all over his one remaining avocado.

So eloquently put.

I certainly am enjoying it. 100% record so far. Regardless of what you think of his time in England, AVB was a great get for a club of Zenit's stature. It's like Copenhagen getting Bendtner.

I bet he would do anything to get Jose over at Arsenal as well, unless the trophy for 4th is sufficient?

Chelsea are about to be trophy-less and played shit football.
