I'm sure I wasn't the only one who got to the Amex and, on seeing the team, felt just slightly deflated.
I mean, I knew Gruda wouldn't play, that Kadıoğlu and O'Riley are yet to sign, and fully expected to see Rutter on the bench, but I had hoped for Wieffer in there, so that felt marginally...
I mean, Ansu Fati was an incredibly exciting signing, let's not beat around the bush here. But the current crop are very different, in that they're up and coming or established young players as opposed to fallen stars.
I remember being quite excited about Glenn Murray signing (the first time)...
Foreign government flights, military flights, I don't think some of the royal flights show up either, that sort of thing?
They do use Biggin Hill. I remember the Polish government used to use it for their extradition flights: every few weeks they'd set one up to take home Polish nationals who...
I hope they pull the blinds down when the aircraft descends over Gillingham and the Medway Towns: we don't want him to look out the window and change his mind.
Yikes! They've all been sucked into a cosmic void! A void which will mysteriously become ten times more powerful if it gets to 75 minutes and it's still 2-0 to The RB Leeds United.
Hardly. They buy players just to stop other clubs them, and they don't need to care if they succeed or fail. We buy prospects with a view to developing them and either them being brilliant for us or selling them on. Chelsea cannot possibly be planning to play or sell on 42 players.
I don't know if this is true but I like it very much as a concept. I really could not be less bothered by KDH. He's going to be squad fodder at the Bridge: I just don't see how he fits in with their proposed style of play or expensive midfield galacticos.
Even though O'Riley has only really...
I think Ayari stays as back up after a very good pre season. Yalcouye is widely rumoured to be going on loan, potentially to The Massive. Igor could be sold, and I can't say I'd be particularly bothered. Turns will be released whenever his contract is up, I'd expect. Will end up at a League Two...
Absolutely NOT. Ferguson was one of the brightest young stars in the Premier League two seasons ago, and started last season well also (have we forgotten that hat trick against the Saudis?). He got injured and then picked up an illness which it's taken him a long time to recover. from. Anyone...
