Do not think Roman meddling is the major problem here tbh.

then what is? Hes been doing that since his arrival. Yes, he is the man with the cash, but he acts like he is a manager.


He is the one who bought several players and keep buying whoever he wants. He is the one who questions tactics and formations of the manager(s). He just doesnt understand that there is no immediate success in modern football, unless you are Guardiola and you're managing Barca.

He buys players that the current or, in this case, the next manager may not want. De bruyne? Lukaku? (not saying they dont ave the potential and all that jazz, but he cannot buy whoever he wants) I'm sure AVB didnt need them. The only transfers AVB made himself, were Romeu, Mata and Meireles. How is it not the major problem?

We will never have a long term manager, thats for sure.
 
Lukaku is poor. very poor. He needs PL experience at a club, like Alcaraz said.

I wouldn't be that harsh I've watched the reserves and he looks quality and of course he needs experience but he's not learning anything on the bench, I'd give him the odd chance here and there maybe a loan is something he needs. Oh and have you seen Courtois! He looks quality, he can step up next year for me but another loan looks possible for Courtois

Thats right, the key word is reserves. A lot of work needs to be done before he is able to be a regular starter for the first team. Just loaning him out to a top 10 club will do. Sunderland, Everton, Norwich and even Swansea are good places for him to grow. One of those 4 managers; O'Neill , Moyes, Lambert and Rodgers could help him a lot.


Thibaut is immense. I have big hopes for him.
 
LOL..



Because you are blue and white not blue and gold.. I'd be annoyed if Liverpool randomly made a red and gold kit instead of red a white. It just seems stupid.

And the reason I associate it with those things is because usually gold is used on kits because of those things.. For example, In 2006-07 [I think] Chelsea had a blue and gold kit to celebrate their centenary.

Anyway, was just wondering, just glad we aren't with Adidas anymore.

I don't see your point? Gold is on our badge, and has been used as a colour of the home shirt in the past. And like people have already said, it is also to do with London 2012.

It's the same situation with Real Madrid and Bayern Munich this year; they hadn't won anything (well, Real won the Copa del Rey, but that's no reason to have gold) and didn't have a significant anniversary, but they had their primary colour with gold as the trim.

Lol. Adidas makes arguably the best kits. Not sure why you are happy.

I agree, but TBF, they haven't done many nice ones for Liverpool.
 
needs to improve on his technical ability though. Would rather see Lukaku on loan next season at a club like Everton together with Kevin De Bruyne.

.
This is why i was banging on that he should have stayed at Anderlecht. Wasted year.
 
Why is everyone so defensive.. I think changing your secondary colour to gold looks tacky, that's just my opinion.. Jeez, chill out.
 
Apparently a lot of pathetic people went to the Torres signing today just to give him abuse and call him **** to his face. Can't believe some sad wankers would actually wait in line for 4 hours just to do this and they also prevented actual Torres and Chelsea fans meeting him by taking up space in the queue.
 
Must be FC Barcelona trying to weaken Chelsea before their match.

He is only banned for English games, will be able to play against Barca.

Lukaku is poor. very poor. He needs PL experience at a club, like Alcaraz said.

No way is he very poor, he needs to work on his finishing and technique but he is a decent young player. People seem to forget the lad is 18.

It was a strange one because we couldn't send him on loan once we signed him because he had already played for Anderlecht and us straight away so he wouldn't be allowed to play for another club. And when we had a chance in January Drogba and Kalou was out on International duty so he was 2nd choice behind Torres. He has torn up the reserve league as you would expect and even training with the first team will help him but a loan to a Premier League side and 20 games minimum is what is needed for the lad next season. Maybe with a side like Swansea, Bolton, Norwich etc.

If its true then that is absolutely shocking and just shows what low lifes are around. They don't deserve to breathe oxygen in my eyes, ******* shocking but expected.
 
nothing tacky about it! especially if JT and Frank are modelling them! :)

Well apparently according to the daily mail yesterday because Drogba isen't modelling it he is definatly leaving. Suppose that means Ivanovic, Cole, Mikel, Ramires, Cahill so on and so forth are leaving too. Mugs!

staying at Anderlecht would hardly have done him any good. They were using him as a battering ram. At chelsea we have been focuisng a lot on his techinical abilities and he has improved tremendously. Plus he has learned a lot from the likes of Diddy Drogba.

In Fact, staying at Anderlecht would have been a wasted year for him in my opinion

I agree, but BTW, Cahill and Ivanovic were modelling the new kit.
 
Another fa youth cup final appearence for us, its annoying that our acadamy has been doing so well for years now but because the club changes manager every year no one gets a chance to break through. Lucas Piazon was magnificent tonight, the lad has all the tools to succeed in english football without a doubt. He is very strong but has a great deal of pace too with very close control, my one criticism of him tonight was he was a tad greedy but he took his goal very well.
 
Delighted we're through to the final of the Youth Cup. Didn't play our best this game (though in the 2nd half we were a lot better) we've played a lot better in some other games, but we deserved to go through. If Piazon, Chalobah, Feruz and Ake don't get a chance to break through to the first team, then we may as well not have an academy, U18s, or reserve team. There are other top players within the U18s, but for me, those are the best; if they don't become top players I will be very surprised, and disappointed.

Although its very early, Piazon really does remind me of a young Kaka with his attributes.

He is mate. He is poor. He needs to work on his first touch, positioning, technique, finishing and even keeping the ball without losing it. If I have to compare Feruz to him, I'd probably say Feruz. But thats my opinion.

I didnt forget he was 18, thats why I said he needs a PL first team experience at another club, before he can make himself available for us. He is young, thats why thats not a big problem still. He has time on his side.

Lukaku is miles infront of Feruz in terms of experience and ability without a doubt.
