Such an ignorant comment.
We have a chance of winning 3 domestic trophies.
And not a hope in **** of the EL.

We are favourite to win the SPL, League Cup and Scottish Cup.
Chelsea are 3rd choice for most trophies they are competing for.

Most pedantic post ever.

If you're favourites why haven't you won the league in 3 seasons, the league cup in 2 and the first Scottish Cup in 4 years?

Oh, and no one cares about Scottish trophies.
 
Just a little bit of research, since 1997 when Chelsea started winning trophies:

Celtic: 17 trophies
Chelsea: 16 trophies

Not bad considering only 2 sides win honours in Scotland compared to England where i would say atleast 4-5 clubs have been competitive over that same period.

Not to mention Chelsea have been consistently getting deep into the CL in that time. It's a complete no-brainer. Given the choice between Celtic and Chelsea anyone sane and unbiased would choose Chelsea any time.
 
Oh, I'm sorry, did I miss another trophy? Makes absolutely zero difference.
Not a hope in **** of either the EL OR the CL.
I does as it shows you like many no nothing about Scottish football yet can criticise it.
I'm sure any player would be dying to win a couple Scottish cups. He has the chance to train with the best and maybe win the big boy trophies once, why not?

Yea how dare I bring up trophies that are not part of the EPL, they cant be won by the premiershit so they are ****?
The big boys lol

Just stop. Why must he stay at Celtic? you've saved him from a horrific life and made him into a promising footballer, reading articles he's clearly appreciative of Celtic and what they've done for him. If Chelsea wouldn't of got him, then one of the other reported top clubs would have.

What realistic chance do Celtic have of winning the UCL? Chelsea have always been past the group stages, whereas Celtic got into the Europa League after winning an appeal, after the team they lost to for fielding ineligible players.

We also had Heart and Aberdeen competing. Shows our average years are more successful than your best.....

We are favourites with the bookies etc. Last season has no relevance.
You dont care yet you took the time to try and wind me up?

Given the choice between playing for a club that have probably saved your life or a club that will give you a bit more money most decent human beings will choose the one that saved you....

Hearts and Abderdeen were competing in the league but not with honours lol. No-one else has a chance hence why your league is poor amoungts other reasons.

His agent saying he thanks Celtic? Appreciating what Celtic done would be trying to pay them back. Not running down to London to meet with Chelsea when he is meant to be training.

They provided competition so yes they where competing, they also won a few trophies during that point so your point about less competition is stupid.

Yet about 3 of their trophies bring more revenue than yours, uber success.

I was making a point about why he'd want to go to Chelsea.

It's not just money, it's one of the biggest clubs in the biggest league in the world. It's not difficult to work out. If you actually cared about his life you'd be happy with him going up in his career
 
Seems both Manchester club, among others, missed out on him too. Gutted, he looks a class prospect
 
Celtic was a great team, but no where near Chelsea today. Ask any non Celtic fan they will tell the same thing. It not even up for debate.

Celtic were a great club, no one is disputing that, but at this point of time Chelsea are bigger and better club.

Quality players, Very good young manager, from past decade performing consistently well in Champions league and also far better prospect for any foreign player.
 
The football is better in the PL than in the SPL.
The football is better in the CL than the EL.
The quality of players at Chelsea is better than at Celtic.
The quality of his peers is higher at Chelsea than at Celtic.

If he was moving purely for money, then you might have a point. As it is, Chelsea is an incredible step up for the guy in terms of quality. We vilify mercenaries like Nasri because of their greed yet this young lad probably just wants a chance to play with the best (who wouldn't?) and you slate him too. Good on him I say.

Have they competed the same way the likes of Arsenal and Liverpool have in England??? In England its normally a top 4 who challenge for honours but only a top 2 in Scotland with less money and less recognition.

Football isnt about money, if it was we would be beating Rangers right now.

I was making a point about why he'd want to go to Chelsea.
You researched when we last won each trophy to show we where not favourites. When we last had won a trophy has no bearing on if we are favourites or not. So you where either trolling or you care about Scottish football.

It's not just money, it's one of the biggest clubs in the biggest league in the world. It's not difficult to work out. If you actually cared about his life you'd be happy with him going up in his career

Okay so money and fame above the club that helped you, he probably could have helped the club and then still made enough money if he wanted to.

Not as competitive but they have still competed and won silverware. You said Celtic only competed with Rangers, which is wrong.
 
OK this is getting pointless now, since people arent gonna agree. We are literally going round in circles

Football might not be soley about money but life is. Just face it mate this is a massive step up for him. Its ok to be ****** off but dont be bitter about it.

Chelsea team to play Leverkusen:
Cech
Bosingwa
Cole
Luiz
Ivanovic
Mikel
Meireles
Malouda
Mata
Torres
Sturridge

As predicted no Lamps, Anelka and JT
 
So Malouda is playing left and Mata in the middle? Are we lining up in our normal 4-3-3/4-5-1 with Mata in Lampard's role or is it going to be a 4-2-3-1?

Only AVB knows.... This is the best bit about it, Chelsea are now finally versatile in formations. In the past it was always going to be a 4-3-3 but now we have options to keep the opponents guessing.
 
Liking the line-up, seen that Ballack will be in Leverkusen's squad, least he gets a game for them.
