    Berahino is a bit average and has an awful attitude.

    From what i've seen at the Euros i'd take Witsel and Florenzi who i think are both realistic additions. I know neither are strikers but they're 2 positions we do need.

    To be fair to Berahino, he's been playing for that awful west brom side under Pulis and was benched for large periods after his strike.

    His attitude is up for debate but he obviously felt the club were screwing over his chance to move on up.

    As I say, it's more for back up and he's the right age to see improvement. But it's not going to happen anyway so it's all moot!!

  3. There's a very small handful of the usual suspects desperately trying to create something out of a nothing thread.

    It is lamentably pitiful, mate.

    Mate, you are the one providing the material. Nobody else forces you to make the **** ups, you do that all on your own <ok>

    Azpilicueta in demand according to Guillem Balague. Understandable due to how good he is, then i saw the price we're apparently looking for. 14M....

    Am i missing something? He's one of the best defensive full backs in the world and we're looking at 14M?!

    Was literally just about to post the link when I saw your post.

    Here it is anyway for anyone else.

    http://www.skysports.com/football/n...ar-azpilicueta-in-demand-says-guillem-balague

    Given what we paid for Rahman, why would we sell for only 14m?!?!

    Got to be 20 million plus, surely?

    do you think Azpilicueta could end up at Man Utd if Mourihno gets involved?

    Won't be surprised if some of our key players end up at OT.

    But - Conte should focus on building players for THE team like his current Italian team, rather than team around or for any particular star.

    We shouldn't throw money around on Griezman or Lukaku. That is never going to work. We cannot compete against money bags Manu & City.

    Need to carefully select players with less money and groom them into the team.

    Going on last season's evidence, I don't think the Chelsea players will be queuing up to play for Mourinho again.

    Last season or personal relationships mean nothing.

    Remember Cesc & Barca vs Jose?

    Players care, where they are wanted and who pays them more.

    Will not be surprised if Matic goes given the way he was treated by Gus & co after his temporary loss of form.

    Matic signing for you will be, same as you signing the title. End of.

    If Eden recreates his Euro form & last few weeks of last season form - we have a terrific new signing.

  12. @PISKIE is going to be furious that you liked my piss-taking post, Skiddy.

    Yeah, but Skiddy then read my retort and liked that instead. Cue tears and tantrums from @Hoddle Is A God

  14. I'm mildly miffed by that than furious, to be honest with you, Pixie.

    I just know that Guitar Hero controller of yours is going to take a beating Pete Townshend style after this latest like meltdown :)

  16. If you must know, Pixie, I've actually been learning sequences up and down the neck, mainly through the pentatonic scales. I'm getting pretty slick with them and am going to be incorporating them into my soloing. I'll be pure pussy-bait, Pixie, as you well know - more so than I already am, mate.

    That's not a very well disguised euphemism for you knocking one out HIAG.
     
    #1137
  18. No, mate. You're the one who likes to "finger his fretboard" after finding out that it doesn't make you gay. Mind you, fingering the fretboard of your boyfriend does make you gay. Sorry, mate.

    Again mate, a poorly disguised euphemism for you trying to tell us you've just had a ****. At least we all now know what you mean when you talk about your 'blistering solos'
