Ramsey and Walcott have been 2 massive losses, a Attack of Flam, Ramsey, Ozil, Walcott, Ox, Any striker would have been way better than Arteta, Rosicky, Cazorla, Ox, Podolski, Giroud

Rosicky is still great for tempo, but he isn't the player he once was, and Cazorla is great, but if Ozil is fully fit and in Form he is first picked as AM, Cazorla is Wasted as a LW, so its better to play Ox there,

Dream for game one next season would be

Casillas/Szsz
Aurier.... Kos.... Per.... Gibbs
.........Bender.....
...Ramsey.... Ozil.....
Walcott.........Draxler.
.......Muriel.....

Another Liverpool win!
Weren't really at our best and I was pretty nervous for the last 20 mins after Sunderland scored but get the 3 pts in the end.

Looks like our trip to Anfield will have a real Grand Final feel about it

The title is still Citeh's to lose though, as José has been pointing out for some time

No one needs Mourinho to tell us that City are in the driving seat :lol:

I take it you were not one of the people criticising Mourinho for downplaying Chelsea's title chances then

Well done

Well no, I wasn't. There is a difference between implying you are massive underdogs and saying you are not yet ready to win the title('little horse' spring to mind?), and saying that City are the favourites. I've always maintained that City have the title in their hands, but I've also maintained that Chelsea are a far bigger chance than what Mourinho tried to con us to believe. That's the issue I had with Mourinho.
Can't believe that I was slaughtered by Chelsea fans on an espnfc.com forum one time because I was trying to dismiss Mourinho's 'little horse' garbage, while they actually believed Mourinho's lies that Chelsea weren't ready for the title :lol:

We still need Citeh to drop four points to be any chance

And yet pointing out that this is unlikely is a 'con?'

Okay...

How can you not comprehend what I was trying to argue? Mourinho was trying to con everyone that Chelsea had very little chance, were not yet ready to challenge, and were behind even Arsenal in terms of challenging for the league. He wasn't trying to 'con' people that 'Chelsea still have a chance, but it's unlikely', because yes, at the moment it is unlikely given that they are in the driving seat and have found some form.
On the flip side, City dropping 4 points though, why not? People have banged on about Madrid to win the title from here, yet they slipped up against Sevilla. Citeh can sometimes be unpredictable; Emirates (yes, they're still capable of a good performance to at least draw to City), Goodison and Anfield are massive banana skins.

I think you'll find that his remarks were far more pertinent toward Manchester City then Arsenal

Although he certainly does enjoy playing with Wenger's mind

Oh no, I wasn't trying to say he was messing with Arsenal, he just simply suggested that Arsenal were ahead of Chelsea development-wise. But yes, he's set his sights on Pellegrini ever since the season began.
