You were here when you were s%*t- Former Players and Youngsters

This is just sad, as by all accounts Essien is a tremendously nice guy. As toxic as our changing room was at the first part of last season, it had nothing on Jose's time at Madrid.

Forgot that Kenedy went to Watford. Come on at about 75 when they were two down and did very little.

 

Salah with a hat trick today. Part of me wonders what he could do in this system.

 

20 years ago, this man joined Chelsea. he was the reason I became a Chelsea fan.

 

At right back nonetheless. Needs more matches. If they intend on using him there that could greatly benefit us with his versatility.

 

Speaking of shit when they were here. Jeffrey Bruma moved to Wolfsburg over the summer and he's really done well. Granted they've been poor, but he's done pretty well. He's actually starting centrally next to Ricardo Rodriguez who is also playing center back....

Baba Rahman is on the bench for Schalke who they're playing.

 

Did I laugh? Yes.

Don't know if discussed, but JT, Zouma, Michy and Van Ginkel all featured in a recent U23 game (under the new rules we're allowed to play 3 overage players, Eduardo our backup backup keeper was the third). Michy scored twice with MVG scoring the winner.

 

Fabergas also featured.

 

Yesss, knew I was missing someone lol.

 

That the scoreline ended up being a tight 3-2 was due to some great misses. If we would have put away all our chances it could have ended up being a more comfortable win.

 

Unfortunate. It would have been awesome if we resigned him on the free next summer. How epic would his theoretical return be? Wishful thinking anyhow on my part.

The joy of Malouda.

 

Lol, I guess even a heel would get a loud pop. How are you my man?

 

Miazga recently scored against some 15th division team in the Cup. He's done well, but unfortunately his presence has coincided with a bad run of form. The regular starting CB is back.

I'll be surprised if Miazga ever plays for Chelsea again. He's a solid defender and as an American, I hope he finds playing time for the sake of the American backline.

Claude Makelele joins the coaching staff at Swansea City.

 

Was he still coaching youth at PSG?

 

Lampard's top 3 goals is that one against Bayern in 05? Underrated goal.

Man, we had an amazing midfielder. Others will disagree but he's an all time great. He really is.

 

Van Aanholt moves from Sunderland to Palace for a cool 14m. Good player, bad clubs.
