oh my what what the chicken was anelka and the whole defence looking at? another set piece another goal? let me guess, that should be drogba fault right?

Oh please . . . what is this?

Goodness. . . I thot Kalou did not slip . . he did . .

and that is the result from marking space instead of man. . . .

Still Zonal marking from set pieces. . . LPS is never going to change this. . .

What was Alex thinking?

Corner kick. . .

What a shot by Lampard. . . no where near goal . . .

Rubbish cross from bosingwa. . .

I thot Joe should have squared instead of shooting . .but game on . . .

Common guys. . .

Line Up

-------------------------------Cech------------------------------

---Bossy------------Alex----------Terry--------------Cole--

--------------------------Mikel--------------------------

---------Ballack--- ---Lampard--------

---Joe -------Anelka------- ---Kalou----



Strong Line-up . . No messing around. . . . . Let's go guys and disperse these toys. .

MatchDay Live. . .

SSN just reporting that Drogba's relationship with LPS has completely broken down.

dayokanu:
All chelsea players have lost interest in the Chelsea project.

Ballack, carvalho, Drogba, Joe Cole are tired and not motivated again.

Except Drogba . . all others are fine. . . Ballack is 31 and Carvalho is 31. . Simple. . Joe Cole needs a junior player to keep him on his heels. . .

@Vicade

To be fair I was just going to ask where on Sky did you see that. . . ? but then I heard the game is on. . .

@Debo,

Attitude? Does DD complain more than Ronaldo or Berbatov?  Shocked Grin
If he doesn't need motivation, then why is there a coach? Why did Scolari hire a 'mind doctor' to put Chelski in the right frame of mind?  Cheesy
A good coach can whip players in line, why can't Scolari do that? Is he not the boss?

Ronaldo and Berbatov really?
Like saying a gazillion times they want to leave. . .
Like saying they are tired of football. . . .
Like saying something left them . . .
Like throwing a coin into the crowd. . and getting yourself banned for 3 games. .
Like criticizing the tactics of your manager. . .
Like accusing your club of not supporting you when your grandma died. . . and getting yourself fined a £100,000
Like listening to music and chewing gum, lost in the crowd, when your team is a goal down. . . .

all inside a year, and I haven't even talked about on-field attitudes. . . you mean Ronaldo and Berba do all this. . . ? Debo do we watch the same premiership?


A coach is there to do half the job. . . the players do half. . . . what can a coach do to stop a player from throwing a coin into the crowd or talking about his grand ma's death ?

@Dr Kit. .

Are you alive? Welcome. . . Leave us with our Drogba wahala. .


@Debo. .

please don't give me that Ryan Giggs thing. . . Ryan will play for ManU because his got the right attitude. . . even his team mates say he takes care of himself. . his diet, and compulsion to always stay fit is envious and exemplary to junior team members. . .

This guy is paid phocking £100,000 a week. . he don't need no idiot to motivate him. . . . and I told you several times over, but you only pick what you want to say. . . I am not condemning Drogba because he lost form I am condemning him because his attitude now sucks . . .now I know you are going to pass this over and come back here with rubbish . . sO i am going to do this. . .


[size=16pt]I am not condemning Drogba because he  lost form. . . I am condemning him because his attitude sucks[/size]

get it straight. . . LPS not motivating members of the team is a different story. .
Drogba is no the cause of Chelsea's problems. . this guy right now is bloody excess luggage. . .name one player in the PL that's got worse attitude. . . even Drogba makes this Gallas look like Jesus. . .


Nothing bloody player is bigger than the club. . . and when it's time to go. . . . shed him . . and quickly. . .
Drogba is the most important person in our team my foot. . . . We weren't winning big games b4 Drogba came back. . but we beat the small teams silly. . it's better than not winning at all . . . small teams or big teams. . and that has been the case since he came back from Injury. . not winning at all. . . and he still gets fielded. . .

Drogba OUT!. . . Simple as!

@Debosky,

Abeg free this yeye yarns jare. . . . No one is blaming Drogba for our loss. . . We are blaming him for his attitude. . Is Drogba the only player in the squad? Why must he go hay-wire because LPS lost the dressing room? Why do we not hear that from Lampard and Terry. When his team is a goal down . . he has his hear phone glued to his ear and he's listening to music. . what better way to feel unconcerned.

Every time Terry misses a game for suspension or Injury. . . when he's pictured in the crowd, the look on his face tells you everything the match means to him. He is on the edge of his seat for the entire match.

I said Drogba will not fit into the LPS system. . was I wrong? Did you watch time after time on Sunday the way he constantly broke down potential goal scoring counter-attacks. . He can't trap and his ball control is painful to watch and you can't play a player like that when you are passing . . it simply won't work.


Beckham et al were punished by Fergie I know. . . but one thing you failed to note was they were all eventually shipped out even in their prime. . . and that's the difference between ManU and most teams. . knowing just when to sell. . . .

We stopped scoring heavily, even against the small sides like Westham, Fulham, ever since Drogba came back from Injury. . I could take him back because I know he can score goals in good positions but I hate that arm-waving rubbish and talking about leaving everytime. . . He came back against Cluj and you, Somze and other men worshiping mammals came out saying he saved Scolari's job. . . What's changed since then?. . . he's managed only one goal.

He does not want to be here again and above all his attitude sucks bitterly. . If he wants to bloody go . . let him go. . . Di Santo will take over. . . believe the small boy has a better attitude. . .


Ronaldo scores 42 goals last season. . . but during the madrid drama at the beginning of the season, ManU fans asked him to phuck off to madrid. . they are ManU and they'l always find a new Ronaldo. . . that's the attitude. . . not preaching to me about what Drogba did in Gaza and what he did in 1900. . . I bloody do not care. . .

That's why ManU wins more trophies than most teams. . because no one is bigger than the club. . .

@FBS

Antics in terms of of attitude is what Eastbay is talking about. . . Ballack like Drogba is out of form but no one blames him because we all know he is getting old. With Drogba, it is insulting attitude. . . . You guys deliberately ignore obvious things. Drogba was fined £100,000 . . tell me one player in your history of supporting Chelsea that was fined that much. Do you what you must have done to be fined £100,000 by a court or the FA. . . something really ridiculous is that answer!. . . I will say, going by the amount of the fine, Drogba has done a lot worse things that the Club has suppressed.


How to guys fail to notice these things beats my imagination. Like Ibime said, Joe Cole has had very bad performances than his JM days. . . No one criticizes him. . . . but you guys worship a player who listens to his ipod on the bench when his team are a goal down. . . and you see him chewing gum in a way that shows discontent written all over his face. . .


Zola had bad games as well but he attitude did not suck and that's the reason he remains a legend. Legends are remembered not only about what they did but how they carried everyone along.

Drogba is no hero. .

@Invisible,

I cannot call for Terry to be sold because he shows remorse. . . Lampard shook his head after the ManU game in disbelief. . . He cared. . Drogba does not anymore. I will repeat again I am not calling for Drogba to be sold because he's lost form but because he does not care that he's lost form. . They are entirely two different issues. . .



@FBS

It's clear to me now that you are saying all this because of your love for Drogba not because of the club. Let me explain. . .

Your love for the club will tell you that Anelka will feel dissatisfied with LPS for fielding Drogba match after match even though he has said it and it is evident to see that he is no longer interested. . another unhappy player. Anelka will sit there thinking I can do better than this. . . and we stopped scoring many goals ever since Drogba came back from Injury. . .


Your love for the club will tel you that Di Santo will be on the bench thinking . . I can do better than this if I am given the chance. . . if only LPS can try me for 60mins and see what I can do. . . . That is slowly building up unhappiness in a young player that might be finding himself another club very soon because we won't trust his raw talent over the clear inadequacies of a 30-year old.

Your love for the club the club will tell you that Kalou will keep thinking I was a regular member of the starting line-up until Drogba came back from injury. . . I can't play anymore and Drogba is clearly doing nothing up there. . .

Your love for the club will tell you that midfielders and defenders feel very angry when they chase down the ball and run all day, get the ball to start and attack and it is eventually passed to a player who wastes the chance because of his clear disinterest . . . and won't go run back to get the ball except when we have a corner kick. . . They really feel angry!


Your love for the club will tell you that Drogba's continual inclusion in team above others that are ready to fight is slowly causing a disaster. . . only waiting to burst. . . .

I thank him for what he has done in the past . . but this is now. . and if he ain't feeling it no more. . he has to go. . .
If we meet JM's Inter in the CL are you going to ask us not to play mind games, not to call him names, not to win and disgrace his team all because of what he has done for us. . . ?
Gianfranco Zola, a Chelsea great and we respect as an all time legend, came to bridge and did not hesitate to prove a point. He took a point from his beloved club. . . and that started the poor run we've faced since. . .

This is business man, one time it is great, if it's bad the next. . you have to do what you have to do and get on!. . No time for emotions. . or hanging unto the past. . .

@FBS.

I imagine you calling the customer care office of Glo, demanding to know why the N1,000 credit you loaded on your phone yesterday varnished into thin air. . . and you getting a response from them saying "Na only you dey buy credit". . .

That's exactly what you mean by asking me, na only me dey subscribe. . . It's not just me . . and while one or two pounds of my money goes towards Drogba's salaries, I have a right to demand anything. . . and don't start that you don't own the club thing. . . if fans come together and demand Roman to leave the club protesting everyday like they did in Newcastle, he will leave!!!. . now who phocking owns the club?


And nobody is asking Drogba to be sold because  of his under-performance but because of his lack of intelligence to even show remorse, when was the last time you did not hear Drogba saying something about he wanting to leave? . . . Have you heard Terry in the news saying things about the club, fellow players and he not being happy at the club? Have you heard Lampard, Kalou, Ashley Cole anyone in particular. . . They keep their head and apologize after a bad performance. . but Drogba goes about shouting about how the club did not help him when his grand ma died. . .

The point is players have more commitment to the club than one another. . . and I do not want to harbour any player who does not want to pplay for Chelsea. . . 

LPS has been under-performing, but he does not come out every week talking about how Kenyon did not give him money to sign players is affecting him, rather he supports the club by constantly saying he does not need players and he is ok. . even when we all see that this is not the case. . .


We all know players go out of form sometimes. .  but at least show us that you care. . Drogba has not lost form because it's normal, he's lost form because he does not care anymore and he has stated  that many times. .

And wait a minute. . why do you care about talking about the match tonight? why do you care about winning ?. . . You don't phocking own the club. . .  do ya?

@FBS. .

I do not understand your stance on this. . are you saying it is not right for Ibime to request for the club to sell Drogba? or are you saying the club should not sell Drogba?

Also I do not understand the part where you talk about Drogba rescuing us before. . Are you that is grace enough for him to continue with his appalling attitude. Do you really like the Drogba you see now?

If Drogba has come out to again (btw Saturday and now) that he wants to leave. . . I won't say sell him . . . . I will phucking throw him. . Drogba is not doing us a favour. . . and while I can't trap a still object. . . Drogba won't be pleased if the network at the bridge all went down and nothing can work. . I know what his type can say. . .

Imagine working in a bank and earning about £90,000 a week and telling your CEO that you are under performing because you need motivation. . . we should treat footballing like any profession, I pay hard earned money to subscribe to Sky, Chelsea TV and Online, Merchandise and stand for 90mins when Chelsea is playing and I am not being paid . . .

I say once again phucking sell the rubbish to Stoke. . . What nonsense. .

Hey Debosky,

All that Discredit thing is a joke . . .


The way I see it is . . Roman is only acting like a normal human being in a recessing economy . . . You and I have had to make some cuts . . hence the cuts at Chelsea. . . That he is "tired" of spending on Chelsea is a claim that can't be substantiated. . .

No matter how little he lost, it's billions of pounds . . . that's money way bigger than the annual budgets of many poor countries in the world put together. . . So belts have to be tightened, heads have to roll and all non-contractual deals have to be terminated at least until the early signs of growth start to show again. . . . This you are right about. . and they are all Roman-driven. . .

For now, there is no proof that Roman will sell Chelsea, I actually think If he wanted to, he would have.

Things will get better though. . . we all have interest in several commodities that have suffered some kind of loss. . and are hanging on to time for a turn around in the global. . . The approval of the Russian government's $1.8bn bail-out plan for Evraz is already in the pipe-line. . . It's only a matter of time though. . .

Meanwhile we are buying heavily in the summer. . . .






@Niyoo. .

To be fair I do not see how football and finance do not go hand in hand. . . All the clubs borrow money from banks for to operate. . If banks collapse like they did in Iceland. . . shikena!!!. . end of premiership. . . Lampard and Rooney will be playing monkey post at our backyard . .

Tickets fares, Merchandise, Players' transfer Values, Wages, etc are all finance. . . and to be truthful . . the good state of Roman is the health of Chelsea. . If Roman did not lose a penny in the recession, we'l probably be spending £50m now and that will save our season and will definitely liven this place up. . . So we have to discuss money "matas". .




@Akola,

I watched the interview on SSN. . . and I did not hear him say anything like that. . .

@Debo,


Sometimes I think you really enjoy being on the other side of what I say. I think it'l be nice to ask exactly what I meant. Roman bought 42% of Evraz, in 2006. However as at Dec 2008, Abramov’s owned 24.29%; Frolov 12.15%; Privat group 9.72%; and over 17% trading on the london stock exchange. .

Adding up all these figures gives you 105% that's assuming the amount trading on the exchange is exactly 17%. . . take note, it's over 17%. .

This in effect means that Roman definitely has sold some shares. . . how much? . . It's not documented anywhere. . some even suggest he now only owns 36.2%. . . before Evraz lost 90% of it's value.

So if he sold some shares - at least as the figures prove - isn't it correct for me to say he definitely did not buy more? And since it remains a speculation about how much he still owns. . isn't correct for me to say only a few know? Where's the contradiction?

You are trying too hard to discredit me. . . . Who's paying you?



You just said Forbes' and Bloomberg's figures have been disputed, you believe that. . but you have the guts to say Roman is just tired of spending on Chelsea in the same sentence. . . how can you support that? Now who is contradictory. . . ?



And you asking what private info do I have is totally out of question . . . there's no where I have publicly quoted how much Roman has lost. . . The truth is no one knows . . but fact remains everyone's drawing conclusions because of he's a major stake holder in Evraz. . and Evraz lost 90% of it's value. .
My own assertion is if Roman bought 42% in 2006 at $3.2bn of his $13bn Sibneft sellout fortune, what are the chances that he's really down . . .and the answer is . . . . very very slim!

Hey Guys. . this is so damn funny. . . .

@Mr "Profeti"


I would have loved to reply you but my Dog needs attention . . . .

Mr. "Profet"

. .  . You are really cracking me up. So you actually dubbed everything you've pasting from Wiki. . . Do you know what Wiki means? It's a free "encyclopedia". . . more importantly, it is an open database. . . anyone can write those stories. . . I can go in there now and change the story to what I want using the edit tab. . . . then come back and paste it here.


You are such a joke. . . I thot you actually had a friend who works with Tribune Newspaper. . .   but "Wiki". . . ?  Look you need to stop this . . Your folks won't be pleased when they see you making such a massive embarrassment of yourself.

Education:
Roman bought only 41.2% of Evraz. . at $3.2b in 2006. . . one quarter of the wealth he's amassed from the sale of Sibneft and even now, only a few know how much stakes he still has. . but he definitely did not purchase more. . .   Roman is not in trouble. . . even if he lost the whole $3.2bn

Go grab some attention in the Romance section. . . .

@Ibime,

Can you imagine. . . The way he just muddles the whole thing together. . . mixes small letters and capital letters all at once. I found it easier to understand Chinese alphabets. . .
And I thot I should ask you. . . . what exactly does he mean by LOWER DIVITION?. . . . Seriously!! I didn't get it. . .

Who is this guy? What is your problem with Chelsea? if Chelsea will be sold like "cray fish" (same thing you've been saying since yesterday) how is that your problem? What achievements does that give you? You can't even seem to modify your posts. . you say the same thing over and over again.

You really sounds lie someone who just managed to get some browsing time at a local cafe, stumbling on his first ever seen blog and is in a hurry to paste news that only you can corroborate. . . give us links to the local news that is making you ejaculate around

Such a weird fella. . . You think Roman invested £12bn in only one company. . . ? You are using up useful space in here. . and we really do not appreciate that. . . . .

@Akola.

I like that spirit . . . I back you on that. . .

Chei. . . I thot my people will support me in the argument. . I am left alone


@Mykali,

After his miss-kick yesterday, we will have to convince Stoke City why they need Drogba. . .
Me reckon like £50,000. . . . jale!

@Debo,

The calibre of people who lent money to Utd are the same that run Lehman Brothers, AIG, Freddie Mac and Farnie Mae, The same guys who lent money to woolworths. . the guys who run the Icelandic banks . . the same guys who just bleeped up the whole world from their posh desks. . .

How do you think they couldn't see a billion dollar disaster. . . ? how much less Utd's debt. . . ? What is it that makes you so confident that they have not made a mistake in forecast . . . why are you so confident ?

Yes you don't need figures because you can't bloody interpret them. . .They are no use to you

For the umpteenth time . . I am going to repeat. . I did not start the argument to say Chelsea makes more money or profits than Utd. . . Neither did I argue that Chelsea is a better buy than Utd. . .

I quoted serious issues you fail to take. . Debt, interest payments, PAT, interest payment deficits, debt/value ratio. . . you taken non of that . . you are coming talking to me about net spend. . . Chac and I were not talking about net spend. . we were talking about debts.

Please discuss debts, if not, there's no point joining.

You are the most difficult person to have a debate with. . . the sides you take are incredible. . .
