I have the ability to change it, but in all seriousness, given the bollocks posted by Goal.com it's amusing.

I'm with Yasik, simply because I hate that we're advertising such an awful source in our thread title.

So who's cringing at the thought of a Windass-Pizzaro partnership?

But those positions are entirely wrong for the respective players.
Not really. It's a little bit off but it is no where near entirely wrong. Essien is a hard tackler like Ambrosini. Ballack during his early Bayern days played the Central midfielder role alot where he would distribute the ball like Pirlo does. Seedorf is an offensive mid fielder like Deco or Lampard. In all honesty, the Gattuso one is the only position that is off. This might be a little better than the last one:
-------------------------Kaka-------------------------
Deco(Seedorf)------------------------Lampard(Gattuso)
------------------Ballack(Pirlo)-----------------------
---------------------------Essien(Ambrosini)----------------
We would overwhelm United badly in the mid field like AC Milan did two seasons ago.
The Deco hate? Well, we played Barca in the CL quite a bit and there's always been some arrogant stuff said by them in the days leading up to those matches. (Samuel Eto'o, Ronaldinho, and Valdes not keeping their mouths shut for example, or Marquez going down on a challenge from freaking Arjen Robben for instance.) IMO, Barca sort of became a Europe rival to us, mainly because of the arrogance of some of their players (Eto'o I'm looking at you) and their antics to try and beat us.
If I can add to that, the hatred runs even deeper with me personally because of the 05-06 season, first leg round of 16 match between us and them. We were down a man by the beginning of second half, we were in trouble but Arjen Robben stepped up and took that game over. He was on his game which made him virtually unstoppable against Barca. They were putting four guys on him, but they still couldn't muscle him off the ball. So what did they do? They injured him to get him off the field. After that, Barca scored two, we lost. That game showed me how he was one of the best players in the world. Even C. Ronaldo can't put in a performance like he did that game. Never in his entire career could he do that. C. Ronaldo can't put in a decent performance against any good team really.

Cole's Chelsea future in doubt as Benitez lies in wait
http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-1043689/Coles-Chelsea-future-doubt-Benitez-lies-wait.html
This baffles me. Utterly and completely. How is Joe Cole being associated with a move when a) SWP is still on the team and b) Florent Malouda is still on the team. Those are the players who should be worried about playing time/spots not Joey. Those two should have already been offloaded.

Press bollocks Bruck. Besides, any moron (Including O'Neill who I actually like) who thinks that Joe Cole is less valuable than Gareth Barry is suffering from a severe case of stupidity, even funnier is that anyone who is under the belief that Joe Cole did not play much last season really needs to get their heads examined.

To add, no direct quotes from Joey, Villa, the Spanish Penguin, or the club. Funny how this popped up.

I agree that it's probably not true, but I also know that if I were Joey, I'd be a little worried. Deco already will eat into his time some, and Robinho would do so even more. A player of Joey's quality shouldn't have to fight for his place in a team, and I'd be mad too if my manager cut my appearances in half in favor of a diving little Brazilian prima donna mercenary shit asshole who didn't deserve to wear my club's shirt.
All told, it's unlikely and I sure hope it doesn't happen, but you can see why Joey could be upset with the summer's dealings.

I like the Pizzaro title. But I don't like Keira Knightley save when she is dramatically enhanced by boning . . . you know the stuff out of which corsets are made.

Those are the players who should be worried about playing time/spots not Joey. Those two should have already been offloaded.I already said in another thread that this seems pretty ridiculous, and that is when the rumor was just Villa. There is no way Joey would go to Anfield. But as for your point A, SWP has basically said
he is content to play occasionally. I dislike his lack of competitiveness but in reality a squad as huge as Chelsea needs some players that won't flip out because they sit for a few games. Thankfully, Joey is not content to sit. So I could imagine he may be frustrated by the amount of MFs Chelsea now has. However, Deco does not seem to be a direct threat to Joey's place to me. Deco is a playmaker. His job will definitely be to create things from the center of the pitch. Joey, IN MY OPINION, plays best on the right wing or as a withdrawn forward/attacking mid. All our MFs are definitely going to be fighting for positions but IN MY OPINION if there is anywhere we are still weak it is on the wings, hence Robinho is a much smarter move IN MY OPINION than Kaka. Even with Robinho I believe Joey would still get plenty of time on the pitch and start most matches.

Regarding the hilarious Joe Cole rumors, I did a news search and here's what I found, stuff mostly insulting Arsenal. Calls their style "Harlem Globetrotters."

After that the bollocks start popping up.
Regarding Robinho, yes it's the Mirror (Cringe) but:

Pizarro isn't going anywhere.
He scored yesterday. Proof of a brilliant season to come.
