:laugh:

Would be fantastic if QPR could take down Villa tomorrow.

Been a crazy few hours really. Amped for the second half of the season. City vs United. Spurs vs themselves. And Arsenal vs Chelsea vs Liverpool. Spots 7-10 very open now too.

Terry's standing trial for being a racist on July 9th, apparently. That'll be a nice dark cloud for the Euros.

Why?

You got a good fee for an average player, saves your shower from administration.

How bad were City last night? Dreadful performance.
Er, no it doesn't.

If we lose this tax case and get hit with a bill for £50m, getting £5.5m for Jelavic won't matter a jot.

It is amazing how badly Chelsea are being managed. It would be incredible not to make the Top Four with their squad, but I can't see them getting there atm.

You think? I reckon their squad's pretty crap. Definitely not as good as the three teams above them, anyway.

Yeah, nowt wrong with the management for mine. Is a case of just having a squad that is old/under-performing/not very good.

Their squad's great on paper, but sport isn't played on paper. They're like the Indian batting lineup , living on past glories.

Find it ironic that the do-gooders who grassed Captain Racist up to the Met have ended up doing him and the Chavs a favour.

If there was no criminal case he'd have been before the FA and copped a Suarezesque ban. As it is he's available for the rest of their season, no questions asked.

The whole thing can't have done wonders for his relationship with his potential CH partner either, what with Anton being Rio's kid bro and all.

Any chance of Rio making a "him or me" stand?

Hope so. Surely two of those would be enough for the management to realise how much of a **** Terry is?
You'd like to think so, but I have me doubts.

Find it staggering that Terry got the gig back at all. Not in the top two centre-halves anymore for my money and seems to have got it because he shouts the loudest in the dressing room.

Bloke's a ****, tbh.

Problem is that Rio is showing more alarming signs of decline as a player than Terry, what with his injury problems I'm not totally convinced he will make the squad anyway.

As for Chelsea agree their squad and definetly the first team is behind the top 3 and probably on a level with Arsenal. I actually think Ancelloti did a great job holding that declining side together but It is now clearly needs to break up and they think Vilas Boas is the man to build a new side, think if he gets 4th and gets to the last 4 of Champions League then that will go down as a reasonable start to long term project.

Reckon Rio's showing more signs of decline because he had a higher level of ability. Still reckon he's a better defender than Captain ****face.

Agree there, I wouldn't take either. Rio on fitness grounds and Terry because he is Terry and an absolute arsehole.

Given the choice now i'd take Cahill, Jagielka, Lescott, Smalling and Jones. They may not be as accomplished as the other 2 but they are fitter and haven't got issues hanging over them.

Make Hart captain too, but i very biased there.:D
