Don't get too excited. Just like your team's foray into the CL, it's surely a one-off

 

Bitterest rivals have to be the scum.Yes Chelsea i'm talking about you.

 

I think that that's probably a highly selective view of things. Without digging into the ages of the respective squads (ours would obviously be raised by the inclusion of players such as Friedl) I am sure that, what we would regard as our starting eleven, still has a far lower average age, than Chelsea's. As you, yourself have pointed out, you have many players over 30 in key positions.

 

And your visits will soon be nothing more than a distant memory. You are in rapid decline, and being led by someone whose grip on reality is becoming extrmely tenous.

 

when the poll was done spurs were not rivaling you!!!! Now they are, in fact they are going to be better than you this year

 

Going forward yes, defensively he doesn't offer anywhere near as much as Mikel though

 

Cech (29), Luiz (24), Ivanovic (27), Ramires (24), Essien (28), Mikel (24), Kalou (25) and Torres (27) are now Old?

 

Who do you support?

 

What about Cole (30), Lampard (33), Benayoun (31), Drogba (33), Malouda (31), Ferreira (32), Terry (30), Anelka (32) and Hilario (35) then, DL?

Mikel is better than Lampard defensively?
And Lampard is still more influential.
I'm not sure why anyone would argue otherwise, to be honest.

Don't flatter yourself, SNIOM!
Fulham and QPR are now your rivals, ta!

 

Oh fair enough, to be honest most teams hate Chelsea anyway so I wouldn't gave guessed

 

PNP He said the starting XI. Of those players you have listed only Cole, Malouda, Lampard and Terry are regular starters. With Alex, Sturridge, Romeu, Lukaku and Kakuta pushing for places that would soon change.

As far as I know Fulham and QPR have a fairly intense rivalry but then again I'm not the best person to ask

 

I take it that you're not going by last season's appearances then, DL?
Anelka started 27 league games and featured in another 5 and Drogba started 30 and featured in 6 more.
Ferreira played in 29 games for you, too.

Assuming that you're not going to argue against the inclusion of Anelka and Drogba with the four that you accepted, that's over half of your team and 60% of the outfield players.

 

PAST!

PRESENT!

NAME CHANGE?

 

Just realised that this is a cross-board thread.
I apologise if my banter with SNIOM has offended anyone.

 

Disloyal bastard!
He's not only going to leave us to join Chelsea, but he's going to leave them, too?!

 

I'm pretty new here but thought I'd drop in with tuppence worth ; Gooners and Spuds have always been he main rivals, while West Ham had more hooligans and was there claim to fame as the pitch performance went away after the good ole days of mervyn day, Frank Sr, Thompson etc. ( they were a class act to be fair) .. ManU and Liverpool were always rivals but only because they were always winning things.....not a local/true rivalry, and remain along with Barca for company after we were robbed in the CL.. . QPR who are they??? Fulham always were more of a friendly neighbor down the street and not very noisy...

Age is just a number and does'nt really matter if you are fit and ready for action, we have plenty of young talent emerging right now , more so this year than others so I'm not worried about nit picking who's birthday it is this week to prove a statistic. Drogba's 33 but is still number 1 threat on his day while suffering from malaria! who else can match the beast for that? his understudy in place for the future and we are looking great for a team in transition and need only a few more understudies/replacements for lamps-Modric? who knows and right wing back... the future is brighter blue than Man City..

 

It doesn't matter I'm talking about a full strength team, with the signings we've made and the players coming back from injury Anelka wouldn't even make the bench, and Drogba wouldn't bea guaranteed starter

 

Didn't you write an article called **** off Modric you Croatian C*nt

 

This is the problem with these threads, now we've got Spurs and Chelsea Wumming each other on the R's board!
Next time you feel the feel the urge District Line, leave us out. Cheers
