  1. I'm not so sure the striker was the massive priority we all think it is. Last season, our strikers didn't score as many as we'd have liked them to, but also, how many of those chances were nailed on finishes and how many were made harder by our slow, laboured and uncertain build up and poor decision making in the final third? We seem to be quicker and better at picking the right pass this seasin so far with the new look midfield and having ball playing defenders. We're already better off points and spectacle wise this season, and while a top end striker would have been amazing, I think what we have will be improved with the other changes. Not buying into this replacing Broja either. He had half a good season but seemed to change and became a fairly selfish player to the detriment of many if our attacks. A striker needs a bit of that, but i felt he would rather go for personal glory at the cost to team glory on many occasions. Which again comes back to the poor decision making in the final third.
  2. Kind of like a Schneiderlin when he was here, you mean?
  3. Need a proper target man. No point playing long balls or playing out wide for crosses without one. You just know we won't win a header in the box when attacking
  4. It did that at first, but then I refreshed it and it worked
  5. The weakstreams one is mostly working. Buffers a bit, but it's watchable
  6. Just seen on Sky Sports app that Barclays have frozen Chelseas bank account! This could get interesting if they can't pay the players, assuming that is the bank which deals with salaries.
  7. Glad of the nowtv delay so I could prepare for it
  8. As long as they are all within playing distance if the ball, I reckon it would be ok. Maybe
  9. Sky news reporting he'd prefer to stay in the Prem. Fingers crossed
  10. Thanks for that. It clears it up in my mind a little bit.
  11. I keep seeing about how we had to play the Utd match last season with that horrific injury list, but I can't remember hearing if we actually applied to have the match postponed or whether we did literally just get in with it, as it's all part and parcel of the game?
  12. You say this, but after i caught it and recovered, despite having had the 1st vaccine 6 days before my positive test, my antibodies were surprisingly low. This was confirmed when I went to donate plasma . I didn't have enough antibodies to be able to continue donating.
  13. How in the hell can a pro keeper get beaten at the near post like that? FFS
