Chel$ki have started Anelka on the bench i hope not too many people moved him to the dream team
Oh for fucks sake. Why did we have to let Rossi go? 12 goals in all competitions so far for Villareal, that is outstanding for a 19 year old playing in a league that is totally new to him.
Corran i was speaking to Cockdax some time ago and iirc he mentioned it was a first refusal clause.
im glad i have Tevez and Adebayor now And im glad Ronaldo is my captain since all the other players sucked! Lets hope James saves 5 penalty shots and dont allow any goals tomoz!
heh,
I was hoping that anelka would done well. had him in my team for most the season but he let me down yesterday.
Even though I am up in about 7th it is still embarrasing due to the other half being in 3rd and rapidly closing in on the lead it seems. Everybody needs to be embarrased. The way to win is to pick people you fancy, like the look of, know the name, or just like the name.. in that order! apparently that gets you a good team
My worst fears have happened. Saha is injured and the local media is reporting he won't be back till March at the earliest with the national media saying he won't even be back this season. Fucking disaster.
woah - your worst fear? atleast he got injured while the transfer window is open.
doesn't man utd have some young chinese striker?

Dong. Utterly useless bud, can't even score regularly for the reserves.
The Angolan guy we recently bought Manucho can't play until we get his work permit sorted and the Africian Nations tornament is finished. That leaves us with 2 recognised strikers and iirc we are due to lose Tevez for 10 days when he goes on international duty in a few weeks. That just leaves us thread bare upfront so we will be playing people out of postition again, we should have learnt by now that you cannot win the Champions League without 4 recognised strikers and buying an untried Angolan doesn't count in my opinion.
Elmander!
Jones is not good enough for a top team..
as a 3rd or 4th striker? he's definately a good player, and still young. Drogba wasn't exactly "the shit" at his first year in Chelsea either
Just my opinion, and I can't see him being happy with going from 1st choice stiker, to 3rd or 4th sitting on the bench.
As for Drogba saw him play for Marseille a lot before he moved to Chelsea, he was class then. Many players have been crap in first year in the EPL.
1) It's amazing what money can do to some people
2) Lots of players are good before they're coming to england, but the majority of them doesn't get a second chance if they've been shit for a year.
Drogba was basically forced to come to England by Marseille... is it a surprise he had a shit first season?
that's not my point - It was just another way of saying, that some players can develope alot under the right circumstances
Aye but he didnt need to develop, he was a class act anyways before coming. Had a bad season because his mind wasnt on th job, then he just returned to what he previously was.
Seems a trend though for class strikers to turn shite at Chelsea... just look at shevchenko
