Makes stuff happen in the box.

Quite. Posturing that will piss off some of their fans when he is in a jolly little welcome-to-Chelsea video thing in three days time.

Someone needs to give you a medal

Not really. I would've spent the first 200 or so telling you this angle is utter horseshit. Its only in the last, say, four years I've had to resort to just berating you for saying the same piss weak argument over and over and over again.

Congratulations to you on the 450th time you have posted a variant on this observation on this forum 👏 👏 👏 👏

He's never going to be a regular goal machine but he is a pretty decent player for us. He's clearly reached his level - Che us either staying with us or moving sideways. He ain't going to a top 8 team. We'd need two really rather good strikers in for this to feel like the right move right now.

Agree. Such a shame that is Hummel producing such rubbish. The blue away, yes, fine, get it. Aways can be a bit nuts, I don't like it but its not for me. But the home kit shouldn't be that difficult and it is dreadful, just far too much white. Awful on TV. The club did a better version of that style of kit when we had our own-brand kit 20 years ago, so it is laughable that a major brand can't do it.

I don't remember mentioning Leeds at all but yeah whatever. There is a significant difference between Risdale Leeds and Leicester in that Ridsdale spent huge sums to win the league/regularly compete in the Champions League, and it collapsed when they failed to qualify. But they went out to spend their way to the top 4. It was a clear, demonstrable aim. Leicester did not set out to win the league, they did not invest to win the league, but they did anyway. In a complete freak season. Their FA Cup season and Euro qualifications are more by design and intent, but its interesting that that is turning out to not be sustainable either.

It's not enough to succeed. Others must fail.

Leicester is odd, in that if you look on twitter only a few months back there is loads of stuff about them being a "debt-free" club. It's nonsense of course - it's all being covered by the Thai family but it's still debt and in the world of Financial Fair Play they clearly can't spend any more. They are expanding the stadium as well so that might also be holding them back as it did for Arsenal a few years ago. Will be lovely to see them down a peg or two.

I'm a bit lost as to what bubble has burst exactly? Premier League TV deal currently £5.1bn until 2025. For UK broadcast only. Honestly they did great but right now this is up there with "everyone loves cricket now" (Flintoff Ashes) "everyone loves Rugby now" (World Cup) and only slightly bigger than "everyone loves Curling/Cycling/Pokemon Go/Pentathlon/Hockey now".

All I know is that I have cracked one out to your avatar about three times this month already. In fact I'm doing it right n

For one this is just absolute horseshit. Secondly, "against the odds"? They were second favourites after Spain before the tournament started, and got to the semi finals in the last four tournaments they've played. Against what odds? They've done great, but there was an expectation that they would do well. I expected them to get to at least the semis and with home advantage and their hand picked high-class manager it was always a very likely they would make the final. You should be ashamed of yourself if you didn't think they could do that and this is all some massive out-of-the-blue shock to you. Are you some kind of misogynist or something?

Looking like our strike force is going to be formidable, especially with Timo Werner giving us an alternative option coming off the bench. Get it done Saints ✊

I've never put a bet on anything whatsoever for my entire life. Does that mean I can't express an opinion about an upcoming football match on this forum? I think not. I think you've ben influenced by two many gambling company adverts, sweetheart. Some of us just go about our lives without ever putting a fucking "acca" on. I fully expect us to lose on Saturday.

To be fair it was all Ralph’s team when we were winning and beat Tottenham and look he's proved you all wrong. Then as the rest of the season played out it turned out it wasn't Ralph’s team at all after all and Les Reed and Claude Puel and its all their fault and what chance does Ralph have with that shower?

People will come from miles around to see Werner play. Its an absolute no brainer to fill the stadium and will pay for itself in months.

They are basically exactly the same level and grade of European team that we play every single pre season. It's not like in other years we are playing Barcelona or Juventus. We never play anyone that the "casual fan" would fall over themselves to see because of their star players. The only reason a casual fan would ever go is to see our new players.

Is this the one that goes right into the rectum?

First time I've seen it in a match situation - that kit is far too white. Poor. Highlights fine but very very much a friendly. We won't get six bites of the cherry in front of goal like that once we get into the season.

Stop messing about.

Is that the actual Palace kit?
