This New Chelsea Owner

[El Rojo]

 

[an tha]

Our players play enough shite for others in international games....risking our highly paid, expensively acquired employees in shite like PL v La Liga or North v fucking south is about as stupid an idea as i have ever fucking heard.

I wouldn’t say it was a stupid idea. Similar ideas work well in America and Australia. 
 

It is certainly impractical.

It's not even a new stupid idea. It's an old stupid idea. Lukaku of all people suggested it four years ago.

It is ridiculously stupid IMO.

 

There are too many games already - not to mention the risk of injuries - it is bad enough sending players off all over the place for shite international friendlies, having them fucking off to this shite on top even if it is just once is for me beyond laughable.

 

An absolute non starter.

Have you heard Liz Truss is our PM now.

....and f**** stupid. Football's got something the yanks could never understand, passion!

 

If ever played and I was forced into the stadium to watch against my will I supopose I'd have to support the combined ManC, ManU, Lpool team against the Spurs; Arse, Chelsea team.

 

1-1 89 mns, then Fernandes finds Foden, goal!!! What an explosion of happy feelings that would be!  

 

.....or not!

I agree on the passion, I don’t think that’s the point. It’s an exhibition, a glorified friendly like Soccer Aid or something. 
 

I bet a preseason friendly like that would prove massively popular in America or Far East. Actually, I bet it would be hugely popular everywhere apart from Europe.

 

I don’t agree with the idea of it, it obviously is a reasonably prestigious fixture in US & Australian Sports.

John Henry definitely received a text from Bohely last night telling him Klopps disrespect needs to be dealt with.

Call me cynical but I have a sneaking suspicion its more about shaking out a few more greenbacks from the soccerball money tree.

 

Personally I have zero interest in seeing our lads line up with players from clubs I dislike more than the opposition.

It's bad enough seeing them running around in England shirts together.

I'm sure it just a slip due to the seemingly unexpected question but I love how he's thinking out loud with saying something along the lines of 'So we would have a team of Utd, Liverpool and Everton players playing ateam made up of London clubs? Oh, it's north versus south teams? So Newcastle also for us?'

 

That will add some fuel to City's obsessive paranoia.

[an tha]

His face is just a picture - he can barely hide his contempt for the idea!

 

Love it.

I think your cynicism is well placed…

 

 

I get we (me included) have no desire to see it, doesn’t mean there isn’t a market for it. 
 

I don’t agree with playoffs to be relegated, then again, I don’t agree with playoffs to be promoted either - you can’t deny they are exciting.

Remember that clown who took over at Chester and he appointed 'off-ence' and 'dee-fence' captains?

 

Fucking hell. 

 

Look fucko, we were kicking pigskin down the streets while you were getting scalped by Navajo types, back the fuck off.

We have a throw in coach. 

 

(Didn't Rush or Fowler have short stint as a striker coach as well?)

Daft. Yank. Twat.

He's there to pay the bills.

Inter City Fair's Cup was almost a similar idea,in it's original form. Luckily it was sacked off for the practical idea of the UEFA Cup.

Fowler should still be our striker coach. Forever.

You just know that Chelsea owner is bored shitless by the actual football as he has no appreciation of the sport. Can't wait for him to suggest quarters and helmets for the goaltenders.

Can we have John Arne Riise as left back captain please.

 

North vs South? It would take a large number of Liverpool players not to support the Souths

And something has to be done with the goalless draws. Let's just have the two managers in the inner circle with their pants down. Whoever pisses the longest stream wins it.
