Btw everyone, Chelsea beat Seattle today in a friendly (*cough money making *cough) game. Hazard scored 2 and so did Lukaku. They won 4-2.

I thought Marin scored 1?  ???

MTTY is right.

Lukaku, Hazard, Marin, Lukaku i believe.

Was particularly excited by My Man Marin! A goal and an assist to Lukaku in a performance that saw him compliment Hazard in the linking of defence and attack. Love it!!

Although Marin was good, i thought he seemed a bit too wasteful. Still a very good player though. (grabbed an assist as well)

Yeah not sure, haven't seen highlights yet bit at least he's getting into positions where he can be provided opportunities?

Definitly. Do you see him starting at Chelsea on a regular basis, ele?

Well it entirely depends on whether we sign another winger. We've been linked with many but I'd be much happier to add a right back and use Marin on the wing.
In short yes at this stage but not if we sign another world class winger :)

"Manchester United believe that they have won the £20 million race to sign Robin van Persie. United boss Sir Alex Ferguson is confident the Arsenal captain will team up with Wayne Rooney to form a formidable strike-force in a rebuilt side he hopes can win back the title.

Ferguson is understood to have told footballing friends he believes van Persie will be moving to Old Trafford, despite the interest of money-bags Premier League champions Manchester City and Italian champions Juventus.

City are committed to off-loading players before sanctioning more big spending and, despite the champions' vastly superior financial clout, van Persie is believed to have been most tempted by a move to Old Trafford.

That's the one I copy pasted from, I know bleacher report has loads of bollocks on it and is very bias, but have read it a few times on other sites and over fb.

>Highest position Liverpool will get all season.

Three rumours I'd love to happen from today;
1) RVP to United.
2) Michael Owen to Melbourne Heart (not because I'm a heart fan, just would love to have such a massive player in our league who isn't extremely old like Fowler and Yorke.
3) Harry Kewell to Swindon Town.

Found a full set of 161 Merlin cards from the 1996/97 EPL season under my bed, all in mint condition, featuring loads of ex-stars like Schmeichel, Pallister, Keown, McManaman, Giggs, Redknapp, Barnes, Becks, Solskjaer, Fowler, Bergkamp, Cantona, Seaman, Keane, Neville, Di Matteo, Le Tissier, Rush, Hughes, Les Ferdinand, Sheringham, Yorke, Beardsley, Shearer, Dixon, Southall, Neil Lennon and, best of all, Emile Heskey!

Should fetch a fair bit for that I'd imagine.

[tbagrocks]

hmm LeTissier and Rush would be nice!

I've still got a bunch of Jordan cards from the early ninties

[tbagrocks]

looks like Chelsea have signed Oscar but I haven't heard anything official, apparently he played well in Brazil's 2-0 defeat of Great Britan last night!
