The market bewteen English clubs is not as open as that of Italian or Spanish clubs. Clubs don't sell top class ENGLISH talent unless it is for some price.
JayNiner said:SWP is a good player, although you have to wonder if he's really making the right move here. Is he going to play all the time? You guys have Duff and Robben and I don't think SWP will supplant them anytime for first team action, which points to the fact that SWP could fade like another English player you guys sold recently in Scott Parker.
henry#14 said:Interesting point you bring up, but Mourinho must have something in mind. Anyway I'm disappointed to see him move clubs so hastily when he could've had a chance to really cement his status as a world class player at next year's World Cup or this upcoming season and THEN look to move to a club where he could really further his career.

Drvar said:funny thing, Ferguson backed up Mourinho yesterday, agreeing with all his accusations. Just some pre-season psychology i guess .
Dreath said:I've been thinking about our chances to win the title and generally about Chelsea as a whole. Now...
Chelsea have the best team in the Premiership now, undoubtadly and arguably the best in the world. However we play them twice a year in the premiership. Arsenal's attack is more than capable of scoring against them remember even though there defense is top notch. So it is not a big ask for us to beat them if we're on form. And even if we don't beat them all will not be lost because you have to remember there are 36 other games in a season and the chances are that practically all those 36 games will be against teams worse than us, so we should be able to get 90 points out of those 36 games AT LEAST.
Basically in simple terms. It doesn't matter how good Chelsea are because it is a league 99% of the points will be earnt from the other (weaker) teams in the league. And remember everyone, even Chelsea, have off days
About Chelsea, I have the greatest respect for the players of Chelsea, John Terry is a suprub example of a defender he may perhaps even reach the ability of Tony Adams (he MAY). In midfield Makelele is brilliant and Cech is amazing. Also thier atitudes are brilliant. I haven't heard a single bad comment on another team by the players, something which is admirable. Terry and Lampard often praise there opponants before a big game.
However at the start of last season I thought Mourinho was a top notch manager and a great and funny guy. I still think he's a great manager but no longer is he a great guy. His manpulation of the media is very good, but he shows his weaknesses in it. Look at his recent attack on David Dein. Now he is clever enough to KNOW that DD has nothing to do with fixture lists, he's just a premierleague represntatives, one of three who are voted in by the clubs. He knew this yet he still has the cheek and audacity to accuse Arsenal of fixture fixing. What this has done is made every gullable fool who supports aclub outside Arsenal turn on us without actually knowing what Mourinho's going about. A clever ploy but very below the belt.
I like posting long posts.

ladylover said:Haha, and still Arsenal have to beat Man U in the league, which hasn't happened for a couple of years now. And about the off-day thing, every team will have an off-day, Chelsea had an amazing season last year, but I can't see that happening again....
"The game has changed. We are possibly starting the Premier League saying we cannot afford to lose a game."
"Over the last two years, Chelsea and Arsenal have suffered an average of half a defeat a season," said Ferguson.
