YOU HAVE BEING WARNED ANTIFOOTBALL FANS!(im looking at you chelsea fans)


passing the ball 5 yards 1 million times before you decide to shoot isn't good football, it may look impressive on your fucking huge cheat pitch but there is a reason a sub-par Chelsea side done you last season


Oh there we go again.

yea the reason is called knockout football, hell its called competitive sport. And the same team cant and shouldnt win all the time, otherwise who would watch ?

Hazard is really looking like he and his agent were right about his value. I'm so insanely glad he chose Chelsea. If he stays fit he'll be such an asset for the team, he really links the offence and defence up nicely. I also want to see Oscar playing, I think he could be just as useful. Also, Moses. Holy shit there's a lot of quality xD


I'm still not convinced by Oscar...What have Chelsea brought him in for? As a CM he didn't look that good even in the Brazil Squad and I rate Mereilles - Ramires - Mikel partnership over Oscar - X - X chelsea midfielder...


He hasn't had a chance to play yet, I can still see him being effective especially as a replacement for Mata when he's tired.

Funny that we can now field two almost completely different teams (including loaned players) which would still be good:

-------------------------Cech-------------------------
--Ivanovic---Terry---------Cahill------Cole---
-----------Lampard--------Mikel------------------
-Moses-------------Mata---------------Hazard-
---------------------Torres---------------------------


-----------------------Courtois----------------------
--Azpilicueta--Luiz-----Cahill-----Bertrand-
-----------Ramires----------Meireles------------
--De Bruyne-------Oscar--------------Marin--
----------------------Lukaku------------------------

lololololol seriously??? QPR trying to be the next PSG xD?

Definitely a step up from Rob Green.

Also in terms of Scott Sinclair, they have been saying Man City are trying to buy him for 5.6 mill. What a joke, I can understand why Swansea do not want to sell him for that much. He's been great for the Swans, they should hold out for 10-15 mill.

Anyone else watching the Man U game this weekend think Rooney looked fucking awful? I mean physically, just out of shape. The gash in his leg could be a blessing in disguise for Man U.

Rooney's shape in both games has been awful. Must have completely taken the summer off...

Only game i heard he lined up for was the 4-2 win against Hannover in which he scored 2. He had been jet setting with his wife though, they went to Vegas, Italy, Dubai and Maritias all in like 2 week break.

I also can't believe the retardedness of Tottenham making a 11.7mill bid for Willian. Are you kidding me??? That's literally the stupidest bid I've seen all transfer window.

Rooney most of the time looks quite shoddy, I have to say, he pulls goals and wonder moves out of his ass but he is no way near as visually exciting as an aguero or a van persie.

Football management, with QPR – Here’s how the running of QPR football club seems to work:

The quality of any potential signings is then gauged purely on whether or not they used to play for a big team. For example, a player who once played for Chelsea would be deemed better than a player of much younger age and better ability currently playing for West Brom. As a result QPR now have a squad of outcasted reject players who are too old, and either defend or attack a lot, with some people randomly stuck in the middle of the pitch who don’t really know which of the two they’re supposed to be doing, since QPR’s squad management method doesn’t take into account the middle third of the pitch actually existing. This is in reality the needlessly expensive method of buying a ticket on the relegation train, while pundits spend all season remarking that you’re “too good to be relegated” (then changing their mind to “no one’s too good to be relegated” around March time).


sums up my thoughts about QPR signings this season Source

Except Barton was a free transfer. Was more like QPR convincning themselves they are a smart club that sign top professionals and pay good money for them, all the while making savvy "steals" taking troubled players and fixing them.
