The UCL Final against Manchester United was the first game I supported Chelsea and it was from there the relationship started. I remember I was in Jss 2 and the all the boys in the class backed one of the two teams to win. I think the pain of losing bonded me to the club

izzou:


I think the UCL is a common ground to compare. That's the biggest competition in Europe

Celtic have been carrying their league for the past four seasons. Going by your ideology, Ronny Deila, Brendan Rodgers and Neil Lennon are far far better than Sarri

donjazet:


Oboi, e don tay you begin watch ball oo.
1996 wey I still dey primary school.
Anyways, as everyone here knows already, na mourinho make me settle on Chelsea.
The mourinho of 2005 was a very different beast to what we have now.
There was something about his charisma and arrogance that rubbed off wrong on the establishment and to top it off, he was immensely successful. That moment the person you hate the most is winning directly in your face.
Another factor was the presence of black & African players in the team. A notable distinction between us and manunited then.

Anyways, when you say "leftie", apart from being left footed, do you also infer it politically?

sylvalord:
Are you fucking kidding me?

macjireh:

meaning u were roughly 12 then...omo we get children plenty here oo

BlueMann:

Well, i'm still a young chap so mine is relatively recent.
But I started supporting Chelsea because...


Blue is my favorite colour!

Sounds funny, but its true tho. Then I started watching the team, and i was most impressed with Lampard, Drogba, and Terry. They made me fall in love.

So the colour Blue made me start to follow Chelsea. But those guys made me fall in love.

A40:
Say what now? You were in Jss2 in 08? Omo you young gaan oh

Which Military background... he spent less than 3 months. I have got a lot of friends that have undertaken state compulsory military service and it is more like a camp nothing strenuous.

timbros:

And when I say leftie I mean I use my left hand more than my right hand.

Skimpledawg:

So, in other words, Lloris will beat him up?

Okay.

Ibime:

My younger brother who I mentioned is an Arsenal fan first chose Manure

DeadPresidents:


Lloris wey be Ajebo

Lloris and Pique came from wealthy homes.

I doubt that nigga had to struggle a day in his life compared to strong ajepako like Richarlison and Mané them

Roland17, Chic2pimp, Raumdeuter, A40, Ibime what do you make of the rumours linking Ralf Rangnick to AC Milan, will he transform Milan to European giant again given the current situation and reality?

sylvalord:
What da fucckk is an out-wide number 10?

A40:
Same. But only to write and eat really. My left hand is way stronger

Ibime:


Then you should love the Arsenal team of 2001 to 2004.

My younger brother who I mentioned is an Arsenal fan first chose Manure at the age of 10 and rocked with them for 4 or 5 years. . . until he saw Arsenal line up with 9 black men plus David Seaman and Pascal Cygan. He quickly ported to Arsenal after that and it's been tears ever since.

You are like a reckless and shameful gambler, one who hides his face in ignominy when his ticket cuts but will come out making noises when only 2 out of your 20 slips enter.
Except this time, you haven't even won and you are gallivanting around.

Rudiger is a good defender. No defender will perform optimally in a team like ours that is always been chopped and changed.
I recall him playing very well with Luiz under sarri. I usually reference sarri because, under him we played the most scintillating attacking football I have ever seen at Chelsea, especially the first half of the season. Sarri had a stable defense partnership and it worked quite well for the most part. if I recall vividly, we had the 3rd best defense in the league, after Liverpool and mancity.

Rudiger showed how good he was on the ball.
I also remember how good he was for the German national team when they won the confederations cup few years ago.

I'm not saying he is the best defender out there. I'm saying he is better than most. Unless Chelsea is buying a world class center back like vvd or varane. We can succeed with him. He just needs a very good partner.

You pointing out a random post that criticizes him is just useless, that can also be a rant after a bad game. I could just as easily dig out old posts of Chelsea fans here criticizing John Terry or Barça fans criticizing puyol and pique after bad games. Go to the beginning of this thread and see such after Barça lost to us in UCL.

People will always rant emotionally after a loss. It's down to a matured mind to calm down and accept the fact that good players will always have bad days.

Meanwhile, tell me how your Krakowiak, coquelin and bellotti are faring?

I'm dominant right hand and dominant left foot. You may be a natural leftie whose parents made him write and eat with right hand when you were too young to remember, given your strength in your left hand.

You sef see am..

I saw that final with about 5000 other students at OAU Amphitheater.... that night was the pinnacle of my time as a Uinted fan. At that point I have watched United win all possible trophies.
