I'd found a stream for Chelsea.tv, to watch the game, but it seems to be gone. Anyone else got a link?

EDIT: Never mind, apparently they're just broadcasting the radio commentary..

I had the same for the City game. There's a distinct lack of streams for these games.

Denis Suarez looked good in the ressies, interested to see how he does.

I agree. I've watched him a few times in U-21 and Reserve games, he's always looked a cut-above the others of his age. Looking forward to seeing what he can against good opposition.

Aye it's really out of hand in places. There was a piece in the new World Soccer about the dodgy way transfers are carried out in Argentina (using a 3rd, "bridging club" from Uruguay to avoid tax payments) and it seems Independiente are bucking the trend and actually releasing accurate information on their transfer deals and player ownerships, turns out they have a few players where they own nothing and their entire rights are split between 3rd parties. I'd imagine that'll be quite common at other clubs too.

They're also one of the few clubs in Argentina to properly stand up against the barra bravas.

In all seriousness, does he have any chance of ever making a serious impact in the first-team? Does he have any real chance of getting a shot ahead of Aguero, Tevez, Balotelli and Dzeko, or any other £30m striker you'll inevitably buy in the coming seasons?

Yes, he does. For one thing, Mancini rates him (he was actually released at the end 2011, and signed a pre-contract with Twente, before Mancini intervened to get him re-signed) and as we've seen with Mario, if he likes somebody he'll find a way to fit him in. Secondly, Aguero's our only striker that is pretty much nailed-on to stay (if we get our way, that is) - loveable though he is, Dzeko has struggled to properly establish himself; Tevez' contract runs out in 2014 and it seems unlikely we'd offer him a new long-term contract to take him into his thirties, especially with how unpredictable he can be, and then there's Mario, who could end up as a City legend but could just as easily end up being turfed out to Italy.

Lastly, there's also the very practical reason that we have to start giving some of these prospects opportunities. Guidetti's probably the best to come through our academy in the last 10, 15 years. It would send a terrible message to the other players in the academy that if we weren't to give Guidetti (he scored 20 in 23 appearances in his first season of top-flight football, ffs) a chance.

So, yeah, I'd say, he stands a very good chance of establishing himself in our first team in the couple of years. I think he'll spend a while out on-loan after he's recovered from that virus he had, but after that, I see no reason why he wouldn't be given the chance to come back and make an impact at City.

Already read that. Not a bad piece, though.

Anyway, apparently John Guidetti's signed/about to sign a new 4-year contract.

Buffon

Lichtsteiner----Chiellini-----Cannavaro-----De Ceglie

Camoranesi-----Pirlo-----Marchisio-----Nedved

Trezeguet----Ibra

Could've gone with a different formation, but I'm too lazy. We also had no decent left backs so I just picked De Ceglie.

No Del Piero?! Are you fucking kidding me?

What about Kinkladze?

Bit before my time, to be honest. Not sure he'd get in this team anyway, he was never the most consistent of players.

Shut up peasant. Only a Wanchope/Goater combination would suffice.

I was actually going to go with Goater - imagine how many he'd score with David Silva supplying him - but figured that'd be too much of a sentimental choice.

I don't understand say they won't miss him... Sure, he did some of the most retarded things off the pitch but on it he's been the best defender in recent years for England.

Show me another player that will jump in front of the ball, risking himself for both country and club. Show me another English player willing to do something like this:

Seriously, give some respect to the things he's done on field!

Captain. Leader. Legend!

Are you high?
