come on, its hilarious, the only downside is that no one is talking about how shit chelski played through the two legs... letting that fat bastard, rafa benitez off lightly

im reading now that hes a heir to 42 million pounds...

he's the son of one of the owner and he is such a little cunt. i also hate chelsea beyond anything, but i can't believe how unfairly they've been treated through this. while hazard kicking the dude was borderline stupid, the reaction is out of this world with talks of further suspension and potential criminal indictment!!! wtf has the world come to.... if anything, it's swansea who should be fined

this

the ridiculous thing is that the ballboy wasted all of 20 seconds which was going to be added back on to extra time anyway. I understand Hazard's frustration but the extra few seconds he might have gained clearly were not going to matter based on their play over the two legs.

you would think that this small event was the deciding factor. the deciding factor was Swansea walking out of Stamford Bridge 2 goals to the good.

polishmike you still browse this thread? nice squad change

Anelka to Juve and Super Mario to Milan? nessun amore per Drogba

[digitalmountain]

I guess Shanghai Shenhua realized they can easily let Anelka go but should hold on to Drogba. He scored about a million goals in the 10 or so games he was there and almost got them to the Asian Champions League. Went to one of their games, and he's still got class.

[joeyod007]

^ what do you mean? drogbas off to galatasaray for the next 18 months.

[digitalmountain]

Wow, missed that completely!

[hhenryhhh]

Damn. Leroy Fer is an excellent acquisition by Everton.

Kinda jealous to be honest (as an Arsenal supporter). No, I wasn't expecting any incoming transfers on Arsenal's front this window, but man, at the very least, a more competent backup for Gibbs would have been nice.

[eequalsmcbrill]

Yea he will help them make a strong push for top 4. Shore up the defense. I really like fellaini, want to see him continue his awesome form from the first half. i could see tottenham falling a few spots, how long can they really go on with only defoe scoring?

i thought that wasn't finalized yet? all the same, sneijder and drogba in five days. good week to be turkish

[aso2004]

Fer ?? Are you serious, the tosser hasn't done good with Feyenoord and never lived up to the hype at Twente..

[joeyod007]

IDK, a dutch international, 10 goals in 29 matches, a mobile player with a big physical presence. He'll add numbers to a midfield which lacks any depth centrally, while allowing Fellaini to move forward and play the position he has done so well this season. Need more consistent performances from Jelavic, 1 in 12 or whatever it is, hopefully Mirallas can make a good comeback.

I dont watch Everton too often, but I'm a huge fan of Sylvain Distin, quck and so powerful, him and Jags make a good partnership. While Leighton Baines is one of the better left backs in England. I guess thats the thing w/ Everton though, talented 11, but unfortunately w/ their financial position there hands are somewhat tied. Hopefully a CL spot can change that though!

Only Defoe scoring? I can't remember the last time Defoe bagged a goal--maybe December. He had a nice start to the season but hasn't done much of anything recently despite shooting every time he touches the ball. Dempsey, on the other hand, has five goals in his last five games. I don't disagree with the general point that Spurs have some issues, but for me there are two sets of issues far larger than anything related to their front line: 1) Sandro's injury really hurt them and their midfield hasn't been the same since (and despite all his fans Parker has had some really poor outings recently); and 2) The back line play has been really poor. Again, in the last five matches they've let in some horrible goals, with Caulker, Naughton, and Assou-Ekotto (who I've always liked but he's looked horrible) looking particularly bad.

"10 goals in 29 matches"

"only defoe scoring"

the shallowness makes me cringe... it's ok not to claim authority on every knowledge you know

[joeyod007]

I understand, its just a number without any reflection on where they came from, against who, or in what competition. All I was trying to say is that he has the capacity of doing so, a quality lacking from from Evertons midfield, whether its Phil Neville, Darron Gibson, Leon Osman, or whoever.

[digitalmountain]

Excited for the Real - ManU match. Juve and PSG looked good, red for Ibrahimovic was a joke though..

[eequalsmcbrill]

red for ibra was so iffy. PSG should be alright tho with the 2 away goals going back home.

[SuE]

Brilliant game this

[joeyod007]

ya gripping would be an understatement!

[Vicarious]

I feel like Liverpool deserved to win that one. But, have you ever seen a more perfect free kick?

[eequalsmcbrill]

yea almost another all time liverpool comeback. hazard was so crucial for chelsea today tho. rafa's subs in both games paid off too.

Bale is sure staking a claim for World Class status this season. Player of the Year for me if he can push Spurs to the Europa League final & qualification for the CL. Fingers crossed he doesn't get injured and cut short this splendid run of form.
