Deulofeu's been pretty terrible his entire first team career except for those two months Martinez convinced him it was okay to pass the ball.

£15m in todays market for Carroll is still too much.

He's barely worth half that.
I disagree on your assessment on Delafeou but I suppose buying Bolasie will serve a strict warning to him and Mirallas to up their work rate. They aren't exactly known for that.

Not wanting to be messed around with position is one of the reasons for him moving. Rumours started as soon as we signed Townsend.
We tried playing him as forward at Palace. He is not a forward.

They have been looking at too many X-Men posters.

He looked great against Spurs at the weekend I think he will have a good season.

Ramsey and Wilshere constantly getting injured at least doesn't make me feel as bad about Sturridge.
At least he's not injured right now but I do fear for him.

Despite the glaring weakness of Antonio at right-back I feel Collins & Reid with the help of Nordtveit should be able to cope tonight. If we're going to get anything out of this game we need to be solid at the back. The lack of Payet and Lanzini is going to hurt us so much creatively.

Just read that, I'd say fuck off with it.
If Sturridge was for sale then they would've been shouting to high heavens all summer. But he isn't, because the lad is damn, damn good.
I swear people have it in for him, hell, I see complaints that he 'just doesn't look like he wants to be there'. It's bullshit. He cares about his football, you can see that with his celebration for that England goal in the Euros, and his football is good, his goal in the Europa final was top class.
Season hasn't even started yet and people have it in for him. Yeah he's a little injury prone, but the club's being careful with it and he has been in better shape. Course he's frustrated with not being picked, he wants to play! Doesn't mean he wants to leave.
LEAVE DANNY ALOOOOOOONE
No question he is talented but there's no way he's worth that. Maybe at the end of the 2013/14 season but now he'd be lucky to get in any top team with his recent injury record. If he moves from Liverpool it will definitely be down. (that might actually do him some good)

Ayew and Antonio on one wing is crazy aggressive. The center mids and Reid will have to cover a huge amount of room.
Agreed. When healthy Sturridge is one of the better strikers in the PL. The problem is that he is never healthy. I am sure someone will pay a decent fee for him but £40m is a bit excessive for an often injured player.
The Guardian's Football Weekly.
I seriously can't understand why some believe Chelsea should sell Matic. Him (if he returns to his normal after the abysmal last season) and Kante in the midfield could be the best midfield in the PL. Both complement each other so well even on the physical side.
Even in each game you can see what they can offer holding, pressing and starting the attack.
EDIT - Diego Costa is going to receive a red card in the 1st half? He's probably still pissed off that Cerezo wanted Gameiro and not him.

Arsenal are in the market for a striker and their medicals consist of asking "how are you?" and if the player responds "not too bad, you?" he'll pass.
Could be a good fit.

There's a barely active one. BritGAF.
We're just shite at the moment. Chelsea's defence is still lacking.
Gonna be even worse once Payet fucks off
