    Pretty desperate all round from you mate considering having a rookie manager and 5 of our best players out injured. Of course the mighty pipsqueaks of North London who value their team well above £600 million lost at home against lowly Newcastle. Your feeble attempts at winning begging rights are about as successful as your team. Our manger will improve from his mistakes today. 6 years in yours can't past Argyrophobia (fear of silver)

    If only mate...I was at WHL for both our home games and apart from 20 mins against Villa we were crap!
    No way are we top 4 material.

    On a serious note...it'll be interestimg to see how long the Chelsea fans stick with them. Some fans get frustrated (once they become accustomed to success) with things not going their way.
    Even having a "hero" as a manager can wear thin if results don't go their way...look at united for that. You get the idea that OGS is on borrowed time.

    I think Lampard could well be a good msnsger but do wonder if he has taken the Chelsea job too soon but time will tell.

    For someone happy with such a great result yesterday you don't half seem rattled... and obsessed.

    Tell you what ... when we get battered by your beloved gooners you'll feel much better <ok>

    I'm off to the airport...got a business meeting to by a property Moscow ... see you after the international break. <whistle>

    I was fully expecting a bang average season mate. Our fans have to be patient and we'll be fine
    Good players to come back and only 1 window left to serve. Yeah Frank's inexperienced but we all knew that.

    Nice goal but it's a bit cringe that everytime a goal like that's scored Pep gets a mention.

    Liverpool scored goals like that for fun in the 80's. United scored them for fun in the 90's. Wenger's Arsenal also scored them for fun in the early 00's.

    Fergie's United didn't score many goals like that. Arsenal did. To be honest, I don't recall Liverpool doing that very often either. It just wasn't the English way back then. I can remember the press going mental because the Holland 88 team scored a passing goal against England. I think there were something like 22 passes in the move which wouldn't be considered epic nowadays.

    Those of us old enough will remember Revie's Leeds side stringing something like 30 passes together against Southampton on Match of the Day in the 1970s ... not sure whether there was a goal at the end of it ...

    Pep didn't invent it ... the Dutch national side in the 70s and the Brazil side that won the world cup in 1970 ... look no further than the 4th goal in the final Carlos Alberto ...

    ... but Pep has been an influence to young coaches coming through, there is no doubt <cheers>
