Her after Stanny having a thousand pops at Arsenal not being able to win trophies seems to have forgot the Cup Final last season
LOL
Be keeping a close eye on the League Cup Semi final 2nd leg
Arsenal being in the box seat at home and scores level and with a show of knocking Chelsea out
He’s a Chelsea supporter...thinks every player that comes there comes for their rich history and stable coaching regimes......nothing to do with dodgy Russian cash.Quote:

Before the EPL started Chelsea were a nothing top flight second division club
Won a cup and a league but had really done **** all
Cash got you to where you are
Go have a look at the line ups Chelsea had when the EPL started . Some rank and file shit **** players
Cash changed this
Just like Man City cash got them to where they are
We were the 1st English side to win a European cup and held the highest attendance in English football for a single game for a long time to name but a few records. Weve always been a decent side but now where one of the best in the world and long may it continueQuote:

So considering that you were the 12th side to win it you are taking the piss
Wrong we won the cup winners cup in the 1970/71 season ergo first English club to win a European cup. Maybe look at some facts before rambling to make a point MemberQuote:

Another clueless plastic fan who thinks the league started in 2003
Your the only one talking like the league started in 2003 and I didnt look into other clubs besides liverpool for European successQuote:

Back in those days Chelsea were shit
Make no mistake about it
Just like all these Man City fans nowadays who have NFI what they were like 15-20 years ago playing in the 3rd tier
#MoneyTalks
It also you bringing up the European Cup thing
Which you clearly wrong about
The fact you only checked on Liverpool shows you only a new dawn plastic EPL fan anyway
where's that convention?Quote:

Agree.
How do Arsenal fans feel about the swap deal? Is Mkhitaryan what you feel is needed in the team?
Sanchez needed to go. Amazing talent but wasn't helping the team dynamic. If we get Mkhi and Auba then we would have strengthened our forward line.Quote:

Monreal is very effective LCB in a back three.
I think we have plenty of depth at CB.
We need to defend better as a team (especially in transition)... and probably drop Cech at the end of the year.
Mustafi looks to me like he doesnt want to be there at times. Kos is overrated by alot. Mertresacker retiring, Chambers Holding young. I agree on Cech hasnt been the same WC goalie the last few yearsQuote:

City have such a good defense because their opposition doesn't have enough time with the ball to score against them, but I wouldn't say their defenders are world class. United play with 10 defenders so it's hard to critique their CBs. Liverpool defenders are in awe of what their forwards are doing to teams and get caught napping. Chelsea have been relatively tight at the back but can't score goals, their defenders have to help out in attack and get caught out sometimes. Tottenham can't get their best 4 out on the park and have an unbalanced midfield and give constantly foul too much.
None of the clubs above you in the league would buy Kos nor would he get in their teams as a starter. A world class defender or someone as good as you lot think Kos is lifts the team ten fold and earns you points with their defending but you look no better defensively when he is or out of the teamQuote:

FFS they have John Stones back there hes almost slow enough to play for Chelsea.
Chelsea/Spurs/United with relatively stagnant traditional centre forwards dont match up well with City. A full strength Arsenal probably would.............right up until Sanchez left.
Its interesting hearing the Sanchez comments about his attitude. The dude from Dortmund youre trying to bring in is every bit the same diva isnt he?
Different sort of Diva. He didn't like Mourinho's tactics (same as martial, mata, shaw, etc) however he didn't stay long enough to give in and play Mou's way. Not sure if that's a good thing or a bad thing.Quote:

If we replace Sanchez with Aubumeyang I will be comfortable up top against big teams like City.Quote:
