Damn i missed the plenaty shoot out

[JohnDoe]

Chelsea are a big club challenging for trophies. It's just a blip. They'll crash out of the CL soon enough, finish 5th and go for the Yooropa next season. Torres made the right call.

Win the Champions League or you're out on your ear Carlo, son.

[Mark79]

Chelsea's 7th penalty shoot-out defeat in a row

Theres a proud Chelsea record we don't hear about very often!
I had no idea they were so wretched in shoot-outs!

[JohnDoe]

Win the Champions League or you're out on your ear Carlo, son.

Most overrated manager, ever.

[McDermotX]

Every now and again? he has 9 assists to his name this season alone.

Rudo.......keep in mind that statistics can sometimes cloud/confirm what we want to see in a player.

Glen from 09/10

Glen Johnson, Liverpool
More successful crosses per 90 mins than any other defender
Created more goalscoring chances per 90 mins than any other defender in open play
2.19 completed dribbles per 90 mins is 0.83 more than any other defender

Now we all have an opinion on Johnson's value to the squad, but I'm sure we all interpret the above in different ways.
All I know is "breaking the bank" for average players like Baines ain't the way forward.

Talking about the present and how many assists does Johnson have to his name?

Baines is a player i've rated for years, going back to his Wigan days, and now he's probably in the prime of his career, 26 years old and producing quality displays on a regular basis. You think a European Giant, like Bayern Munich would be interested in an "average player", he's far from average, he's a class player.

Is that so hard for you to accept?

In your opinion

Most would accept he has had a decent season this year but he has not produced quality on a regular basis, unless u count half a season as regular?

Haha, your logic is so cringeworthy. Are you saying big clubs have never signed average or **** players?

10 assists last season too, this is a player who plays full back in a mediocre side like Everton and playing in a back 4.

Poulsen, the PFK..............but then again, we are not a big side

[TheStig]

****, I left the bar after Chelsea scored thinking that would be that for penalties, which is what I was hoping for!!

Oh well.

[Rudo]

That's not what i'm saying at all, and i'm not basing it on Bayern Munich rating him but he must be doing something right if he's attracted their interest.

As i said, i've rated Baines for years and years. No knee-jerking about it.

[Vermilion]

I'd just like to add....
