nateevs: You think Sheva and Torres' decline in form as happened from lack of trying?
How can you compare Sheva to Torres? How much playing time did Sheva have? Sheva was dire but I don't think he was as bad as Torres there was never a time when Sheva had sole ownership of the forward position like Torres is having now
Shevchenko 9 goals in 48 games
Torres 11 goals in 58 games

Plus Torres was 3 years younger and still was supposedly in his prime when bought

nateevs: Well in typical Chelsea style, as news about Falcao to Chelsea gathers pace, Falcao suffers a little drought.
Lol its not from lack of trying tho. Saw a bit of the game but had to switch to F1

BlueDiva: Are you serious? grin
Can't blame you though.
Lmao! Last season was the tipping point after March it was just gone really

nateevs: I am not sure I have been paying much attention. What camp are you with these days?
Google is your friend who una face for May 19?

dayokanu: Unless they bunker like they did in Munich then you can at least expect a David Luiz brainfart. Unless Ivanovic pairs Cahill when Azpilicueta plays RB

Scoring in Turin is vital and Chelsea needs to score first so they can sit back. Though Juves attack is blunt but dont think they would be as casual as Shaktar was 2 weeks ago

Azpilicueta-Ivanovic-Cahill-Bertrand

----Mikel--Ramires

-Mata--Hazard--Oscar

------Moses

Play Hazard to the middle and not on the left cos his lack of tracking back would be more costly on the left than in the center where he has ppl to cover
I expect them to go back to their police barrack system. Any other style and they would definitely be torn to shreds. It worked for Lazio over the weekend though Juve sorely missed Pirlo's creativity.
Asamoah,Giovinco,Quagliarella,Vidal and of course Pirlo are the men to watch out for here

5-17 on 3rd downs. Less than 50% pass completion and yet a punt return was the only difference. Still think Tomlin shoulda gone with Charlie Batch somewhere along the line cos Leftwich hurt his shoulder on that TD run. 2 games behind with six left! Texans should get the AFC first seed easy while the Pats or Ravens might get the 2nd tho I'm going with the Pats looking at their schedule. Making it to the wildcard game should be the immediate aim tho and it starts with beating the Browns

nateevs: Okay. My point of view on Torres.


I still believe very strongly that it isn't the inability to time runs and run on the back of the last defender that is the problem. The case will be overstated if we post that video again of the liverpool Torres again. Torres' problem is immensely "mental". A little finesse will do (like the Sturridge exhibits) but DD didn't have finesse.

I will have to be insane if I do not accept the views of the anti-Torres camp about shots per minute of play. There are many times in the past Torres could have got the shot out but he hesitates. I also believe that Torres could use a little more of the right runs.

Torres' problem can only be solved by Torres himself.
So you have finally seen the light Kunta Kinte that Torres is actually the problem grin grin

nateevs: At what point did A40 begin having sympathetic emotions towards Chelsea by the way?
I want yall to qualify so we can pay you back for May 19. I would be gutted if yall fail to advance

Need a big play from the defence this Leftwich is looking like a sitting duck

Another 3 and out! This game is like a good old barfight.
Sports › Re: A Thread For NFL Fanatics - Daily News/Results....Rep For Your Team by A40(m): 4:37am On Nov 19, 2012
A score is very much needed on this drive. This Leftwich no be am at all but the game is still winnable

This dude's 3rd down conversions are just pathetic
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by A40(m): 4:34am On Nov 19, 2012
The game in Turin cannot afford passengers abeg. Chelsea need at least a draw else it could be disaster and I think a draw is doable as Juve's attack is not that sharp they really have no consistency from either Vucinic,Asamoah,Giovinco or Matri so long as yall don't give them gifts in the defence
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by A40(m): 1:09am On Nov 19, 2012
Torres has lost it obviously he expects to be spoon-fed at every turn. Check out Shane Long the other day and tell me Torres is not a wasteman! This is someone that can't even start for Ireland and has Morrison,Mulumbu and Gera behind him. Still managed 6 goals. Torres has same number (sorry I no dey count goal wey dem score for community shield)
With two assist kings in your lineup you should be dominating the scorecharts period! There is no other striker hogging the spotlight so why can't Torres dominate
What are his strengths self?? This ninja can't jump to nod crosses,can't evade his marker (keeps running into them like a blind bat) can't hold up play,can't shoot from outside what can dis ninja do really

shymexx: However, Vick knows how to beat the teams in the NFC east - Redskin and their DL would have been a walk in the park... Two picks on the first two possessions is unacceptable... grin

The Ravens haven't been playing well of late, the game is a 50-50 game, the better defense should be able to pull it off...
But he can't even play today cos he is concussed anyway
No Ryan Clark,no Polamalu good news is Mendenhall should play. It might be down to kickoff returns and special teams play at the end of the day

Hamilton is just a spoiler had nothing to race for but its all good! 4th is good enough for the title

I'm convinced tho that Vettel's car had an issue and he just managed it till the end of the race. Luckily Alonso was too far off or he coulda taken advantage too. Whatever it is they have less than a week to fix it or 2010 could repeat itself in reverse that is

Lol like Vick don't throw picks grin

How do we navigate those Ravens tonight? Byron has to step up big or T-sizzle and Ed Reed could make it a very long night. The running game is also going to be important and of course there's Ray Rice

Roland17: Don't tell me u have high expectations of an injury prone Amare this season? besides, Amare does not fit the Knicks, he fights to get space to post up cos of Chandler and Melo thus ends up shooting a jumper which the Knicks would prefer, so am not even buying the return of Amare as something huge.
He would help. The Lakers had Gasol,Odom,Bynum and Phil Jackson made it work. Size can be an advantage if well utilized. I don't remember saying the Knicks would win the title so chill bruh


Roland17: As for the Mavs, i gave my predictions about them before the season commenced and it still remains same, they would suffer and would barely make the playoffs, Mark Cuban killed this team himself and pls no one should expect anything from Dirk when he comes back, i just feel sad for one of my favourite coaches Rick. Carlisle, he's just helpless.
Lol the team should expect nothing from the best player it has? I'm not saying the Mavs are going all the way but its Early days men!
