I think we were pretty lucky not to get a penalty called on the Frank handball.
Understatement of the young season. Very clearly a hand ball, not even a discussion.

So Willian is official (holding up the shirt on CFC). Wonder if he'll get a run out Friday?

Do we send Moses or any of the other 200 midfielders we have out on loan now?

BTW, selling Sturridge looks pretty stupid right about now.

Meh, he's great when he's on form, but he didn't work hard here and he's very injury prone. He didn't want to be here anymore.

Well it's been about 4 years since we've had someone like that.

Being played out of position and/or not played at all probably wasn't too motivating for him.

Right, see above.

This I'll grant you.

I'm not really that upset we sold Sturridge but it's frustrating to let him go and see him banging in goals all the time when our strikers can't find the net to save their lives.

I agree. We went with our 50 mil striker, and he hasn't worked out. I don't blame Sturridge for not wanting to be out of position either though. It definitely wouldn't hurt to still have him.

So Chelsea are looking to sign another attacking mid/winger?

Atsu in advanced talks with Chelsea?

ETA: And Ba may be leaving...

Why are you hating on my countryman?
He's still deadly.
Hate him as a person though.

He's lazy, he's seemingly a douche, huge ego, and he's old.

Eto'o move to'o Chelsea confirmed

I think I like it, he can be a great stop gap while Lukaku develops for another year.

Yeah I saw the picture. Is he supposed to be our first choice at striker?

You guys now have Eto'o, Lukaka, Torres, and Ba. Wow. Ba should have stayed at Newcastle. Cisse and Ba were fun to watch.

When is the last time he scored a meaningful goal?

The dude has been rotting away not giving a shite in Russia for like three years.

I hope I'm wrong but I doubt he still has much left to give.
