The Onuoha challenge on Sinclair? Never a penalty, he got a touch on the ball, it was a great challenge. I'm not convinced Remy's was a foul neither to be fair.
fair enough .. but i felt there was a touch in Remy one tbh .. but agree can't confirm it.. so refs sure can't give it unless 100% .. the Sinclair one did looked like a penalty though.. but i admit i seen the replay from one angle only
The Chavs are ****ing morons for turning on Benitez. Morons and cowards. Benitez is on 120k a week, supposedly. He knows he's not going to be the Chav manager next season. He's got thousands of Chavs hurling absue at him at every match because he dared to accept a lucrative, no downside, job. The players don't want him at the club and it's been obvious to everyone, including Rafa, for years that a select group of players run Chelsea. True, Roman has got rid of a few but the ringleaders remain in situ. So why should Rafa give a **** about how well the team are doing? Of course they won't hurl abuse at Roman because the potential consequences are a bit scary for a small London club that thinks it won the lottery but is in fact a lottery winner's bitch.
The chavs are sick to the back teeth of Roman's shenanigans and nonsense sacking and recruiting of managers and players. Players like Schev...ko and Torres. Interference with team selection. But no-one has the balls to utter a word. Pussies. They are sh1t scared that he might go away from football or even worse to Spurs or even West Ham. What is his challenge? he has won the premiership and the champions league (even if it was a damned lucky and undeserved one! )
hhh .. indeed .. that was liverpool plans since day one to get back to top4 again sending both to chelsea
Chavs will finish top 4 but they really are a **** team when you consider how much money has been spent pulling that squad together.
agree, but you only have to look at how the club is ran and who is managing to see why we're not challenging for titles.
How quickly things change in football! Not so long ago, there were some smugness about how the American sleaze balls were dragging United into debt and into the brown stuff and how Chelsea was a model of solidity underpinned by unlimited resources... Not saying that United are now out of trouble....
sounds like it. we are CURRENTLY being badly ran, as in post Ancelotti. Don't forget, the only team anywhere near you in terms of trophies won over the past 10 or so years is us.
What Chavski have won over the past decade is arguably below par when you take into account how financially doped the team has been. Outside of the Chav fraternity do you really know anyone who is impressed by what Chavski have "achieved"?
what, everything? I couldn't care less who thinks what to be honest, still goes in the record books. You lot ain't exactly held the purse strings tightly, so whether we earned the right to spend or not doesn't matter.
True, United have only managed to achieve what they have under Fergie by spunking money gifted to them by a benefactor. I stand corrected! Brilliant.
This. Tbh, I think Chelsea have now reached the stage where they are no better off now than they would have been without Abramovich. Given how well you'd been growing as a fairly well run club over the decade before he took over, it's not impossible to assume you'd have been in the same situation you are this season, particularly if you'd still managed to attract Mourinho, Drogba, Cech and Cole. To be honest those four and Makalele are pretty much the only really great things Abramovich brought to the club, and Cech and Cole were well within your previous spending range. You probably wouldn't have the same number of trophies, but I reckon you'd have competed for a fair few titles along the way, and if Liverpool managed to win a CL under Rafa I reckon you could still have picked up one without Abramovich. Heck, if you hadn't been forced to trade Gudjohnsen for Shevchenko, Drogba for Torres, Hasselbaink for Mutu etc you might even be in a stronger position now.
