    In Maureens eyes yes. I think he would hold down a place in most teams if the manager knew what he was doing.

    Well, some players like to play and want to play and some are happy to have their career shelved for $$$. Lukaku preferred to play so he left. Salah didn't seriously believe he'd be playing regular football at Chelsea, when I heard he signed I immediately thought "that's your playing career on hold" though he obviously gets better paid at Chelsea than he was at basle, but at least at basle he was garanteed CL football every year almost as well as regular starts. So money over playing = merc though to be fair to Salah, Chelsea from Basle is a huge leap, he probably couldn't believe it when they came aknocking

    Power of deduction mate. The clubs have agreed fee, the player has agreed terms, the medical has been passed. Two days have gone by without a signiture, they have either lost the pen or are waiting for funds to complete <ok>

    My friends just call me Sherlock :bandit:

    There's nothing in this world that money can't buy, try living without it.

    It was a crappy game though, I give Jose 2 out of 10 for intent. He was after a draw right from the kick off. I just don't understand why he never goes for the win, once we get a goal he always shuts up shop. It is clear that we need either another striker or to play Remy more often. Crazy putting rusty players in the firing line, and bringing on Gary Cahill what was that all about ???

    As a neutral with no f****** interest in the title race <grr>, this looked to me like a convenient draw between two ultra conservative teams who were happy to maintain the 5 point gap for their own reasons.

    When the Utd v Arsenal rivalry was at its height, neither SAF nor Wenger would have settled for a draw.

    Never.

    Ever.

    I think City actually tried, they are just not as good as people think, plus all the windows and doors were shut on the Chelsea bus <ok>

    <doh>

    Two top scoring teams in the league, Fabergas injured and hazard knackered Costa banned, City not playing well at all this season and Toure and Bony missing.

    ultra conservative? <laugh>

    Neither wanted to lose it's true but other circumstances made it a **** game to watch.

    Are Uefa planning on moving Champions League matches to a Thursday?

    Spot on. And Cahill looked utter dogs#!t in that DM role playing crucial few mins.
    We had Ake on the bench, should have played him instead of Cahill. Would have meant a lot of learning for him.

    Good to see Courtois make commit an error. It is about time. That is not a howler, but very critical at the same time. City were toothless and very defensive, but for that lucky chance.
    His inexperience showed, he was too aggressive committing for that cross when we had defenders dealing with it.
    Zouma is calm and super fast. But I am sure he has some errors within him at some stage of this season. Hope it is not as costly as Courtois'.


    You would know well about dryness of paint, having witnessed all those games at Old Toilet.

    Sure thing child.

    When you grow up and your balls drop, you will realise how silly you look using words like old toilet and manure.

    Someone said there's nothing in this world money can't buy.
    Intelligence and common sense are two off the top of my head, which are fitting given my first sentence. :bandit:

    RA with all his cash couldn't buy a reputation as a decent fellow either <laugh>
