John Terry has stepped down from international retirement cause the FA Chief's exit!! All he needs is to be called up by Roy Hodgson now and he's playing for the three lions again!!

I hope Wigan can take a point or two from Tottenham later today, I really want that top 4 spot!

Tbh JT is well past it. In his prime, he was arguably one of the best CB's in world football. He's no longer remotely close to that level. It's sad, but it's true.

The only thing that could make me despise the English Football team more would be JT returning

Great player, vile man.

I hate John Terry. He's a douche bag and even as a player, he fell off hard. I hate his attitude on the pitch.

In contrast, Juan Mata is pretty much universally liked by all football fans. If you don't like him, you're crazy. It's his birthday tomorrow, let's hope we grab a win to celebrate it.

Liverpool smashed Newcastle today.. crazy result. Selling Sturridge was a mistake. He may not be an excellent player, but he's certainly a good enough squad player to have around.

From today's match:




This is the Messi we need, but unfortunately, most teams (mostly from other countries) now know how to stop him.... by having 5 players around him when he gets the ball. I wish he had the chance to do this more often like he used to before.

Wigan are gonna fight for their lives & Tottenaham are usually really bad at the last part of the campaigns so it's very possible for a draw at least. I personally think Tottenham are gonna win this one though.

Chelsea better be up for a fight too 'cuz the Swans have been consistent all season & esp. 'cuz I'm sure Chelsea are gonna drop points against United next game.

Don't bet on it...

Are you ready to bet on Chelsea winning this one? I'd bet they'll definitely drop at least 2 points. Let's go if you're down!
I wouldn't bet on Arsenal dropping points tomorrow against United but I'd definitely bet on Chelsea dropping points in Manchester.

I think we'll drop points, but we've been pretty good against you lot this season.

Luckily with Spurs' draw at Wigan, we have some room for error.

I think Spurs have nearly lost it already so I don't think this game is gonna be fatal for Chelsea anyway... I'm totally sure Chelsea won't win it though.

I know what you mean but other teams can only stop him when they totally outplay Barca. He's still scored more goals than anybody in the world & only Ronaldo is close to him so to me he's still unstoppable. Barca are done in the CL already but I'm sure Bayern will have a lotta trouble stopping him in Barcelona.

we played you 4 times already this season, 1 time you robbed us, it was a 5-4 win for us, the third you escaped with a 2-2 with a miraculous save by De Gea, the fourth we won 1-0

and this game we want more than any other, first of all we're fighting for our top 4 spot, second, if you win against Arsenal, you still have the chance of breaking our record, and I'm sure the boys won't just hand it to United like that... We want it more, and when it comes to squad capability, we are more than capable of beating United again. I'm not saying it's a 100% Chelsea win, it's just the "SURE" part about us dropping points that shocked me

Had the league not been sown up, United would be favourites to win it. But I can see Chelsea winning this, purely because you have to. Although if I was to bet, I'd go for a United win because they always fucking do.

Well I only say I'm sure when that's the case, really... so I'll easily bet on this game if it's about Chelsea dropping points. You're a Chelsea fan & you'd obviously hope for a win but don't forget Chelsea has been quite mediocre in Premiership this year. You don't look at statistics the right way too.
Still... I wouldn't bet shit on Chelsea dropping points if the game was in London & I won't bet on United winning in Manchester too but if it is about 1X... I'm all in!

[Francesco]

no matter where the game is, I just can't see how you can be SURE Chelsea won't win, when it's Chelsea vs United anything can happen...

Chelsea have barely won against United in Manchester & that was with great champion teams under Mourunho & Ancelotti. I am pretty SURE a mediocre team which is still in the hunt for CL spot lead by the shittiest coach in the world won't be able to win this one.
If you think I'm not SURE enough... bet against me, I told ya I'm all in for 1x. If not leave it right there.


On another note Roma is going ham on Siena.

Goodbye QPR. Happy days!

but I don't wanna bet, cause I don't say Chelsea will win 100%, I just say Chelsea have just as much a shot to win as United do, while you say you're 100% sure Chelsea will drop points. So even if Chelsea didn't win, no one's point would've been proven, cause we still COULD'VE won.
Anyway, we beat Swansea 2-0, could've ended 15-0 with all the chances we wasted FFS!!
Arsenal 1-1 United so far, it's a good score, I hope it ends either a draw or a United win
EDIT: QPR RELEGATION PARTY 2013!!!!!!!!

Nope... if Chelsea didn't win means they'd drop points... & I'm saying I am sure they're gonna drop points.
As I said though... I think Tottenham nearly have lost it already & Arsenal drew today too so basically Chelsea have pretty much qualified already.

On another note...Congrats Mezno, Juve is just a point away from the title!

[Francesco]

Pretty excited. I hate Palermo so if we beat them at home, we win the Scudetto while spanking Palermo's chances of staying in Serie A.
Conrgats on the Siena demolition.

I hate Palermo too... all Sicily clubs in that matter. It wasn't like that before but I got fed up with all that bullshit. I'd like Genoa to stay so I really hope Juse is gonna demolish Palermo.

Roma plays Fiorentina next game & that's always tough.
I can't wait for the cup final with Lazio too... if Roma won their 10th TIM cup playing against Lazio would really be insane.

[Francesco]

I haven't watched Serie A since Mourinho left Inter tbh! ^
anyway, Aston Villa vs Sunderland today, I hope Villa win I don't want them to go down, but I don't want Wigan to go down either
I hope either Newcastle or Sunderland get relegated (but that way no more Tynewear Derby :/ ... so confusing )
So Gareth Bale got both PFA Player of the Year and PFA Young Player of the Year awards, well deserved IMO, but it's kind of unfair to give him both, maybe they should've had different contenders for both awards without common ones, but who cares really...

You've missed plenty of priceless football... well along with the boring stuff of course.

Bale truly deserved it this year... the sad thing was Tottenham didn't have the stamina to go all the way to fuck up Chelsea for that CL spot. lol I'm just kidding... I think Tottenham either have to buy some great players next year or sell Bale. It's not fair to keep him if the team stays mediocre 'cuz he definitely has extraordinary skills.
