Baltar

Looks like he's off to Villa. A shame that it's ending so quickly for Rickie, I'd rather we get rid of Balotelli.

Played brilliantly again yesterday. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NsqasOVTFps

Don't like Novak but he's a hell of a player. Demolished Murray in those final 2 sets.

That lad Adams has scored twice for Sheff United to bring them back into the tie. He's been highly rated for a while now and Premiership clubs were after him too. He's going to be a top player.

Harsh comments here. Apart from that terrible miss, I thought he had a fine game and is only going to get better.

Brendan is just a Daniel Sturridge away from having a good season. He can be criticised for failing to deal with Sturridge's absence, he fucked up there but I think he'll learn from that. Assuming Sturridge returns and remains fit until the end of the season, I think Brendan is capable of steering us to a top 4 finish, which would be a miracle considering the way we started the season.

A really good performance, deserved the win. Play like that with Sturridge in the team and we'd easily have won that game. Promising signs of late, we could be in for a more enjoyable second half of the season.

Confirmed teams. Looks like Chelsea want to win this one, no fielding their reserve players malarkey here. Courtois, Ivanovic, Cahill, Terry, Filipe Luis; Matic, Mikel; Willian, Fabregas, Hazard; Diego Costa Mignolet, Can, Skrtel, Sakho, Lucas, Henderson, Gerrard, Moreno, Markovic, Coutinho, Sterling

He's a little star, brilliant footballer. He'll perform even better once Sturridge is back.

Pardew doing the business. Palace come back from 2 down to lead 3-2 at Burnley.

Every single fucking game this season we give the opponents 15 mins or so to absolutely batter us. What the fuck is that about?

It was a square pass really, Coutinho was practically level with him.

Argh Borini you idiot, a simple pass and Coutinho would have been clear through on goal.

I'm loving Coutinho's performance. He's been excellent for a while now. If we get the best out of him this season, and with Sturridge coming back, he'll be amazing for us.

Oh Raheem....

Get in! Well done Borini, excellent timing to finish that off.

This team is Sturridge + a new good striker away from hammering teams like Villa. Frustrating watching games like this.

Lino bit of a twat. Why not flag right away?

The one game where Agbonlahor's dream of playing as brilliantly as Brazlian Ronaldo at his peak comes true every time.

Bullshit, Mr Ham man.

Haha, great pen shootout.

Really hope the rumour about Delph is untrue. He's totally brainless on the pitch. Good engine but that's about it. Stevie is irreplaceable but we should at least try and get someone in who borders world class.

How does one define freedom of expression? France has a few laws that makes it illegal to publicly state certain things, such as holocaust denial, and denying the Turks deliberately caused a genocide of Armenians. Hell, in the UK people have been done for trolling people on Twitter. Why is it illegal to do these things but it's okay to mock Islam? I'm not taking sides in this argument, just curious as to how far freedom of expression really goes.

Chips with gravy are fucking delicious. Chips with curry? Never tried it, doesn't sound too appetising though.

Just watched the Rodiguez goal on the BBC, with Columbian commentary. South American commentators are annoying cunts. The whole screaming "goal" as loud as you can and for as long as you can has long lost its novelty. Now it's just fucking annoying. Worse than those vuvuzelas.
