Chelsea - Swansea, capital one cup semi final

Postby Cocacolajojo1 » Wed Jan 09, 2013 8:26 pm

Michu!!!!

0-1 to Swansea.
"I used to be 6 foot 2 with curly hair, look what it's done to me"

"In my career so far it's the most important goal. You score the goal in the last minute to win the title. You're not sure if that's ever going to happen in your career again. I wish I could tell you how I did it but I can't. I thought for all the world that Mario was going to have a go himself but he just moved it on one more and it fell at my feet and I just thought: 'Hit the target, hit it as hard as you can and hit the target.' And it went in."

I agree. I mean, the goal was preceded by a fuck up of epic proportions from Chelsea but there was still many ways left for him to fluff it. I liked his finish, cool and calculated.

Michu price anybody?

If Benitez picked Torres before Ba he is a total joke. A blind ,deaf and dumb person knows Torres should not be playing in a top prem side and maybe not any side.

And you remember what happened to the last Chelsea manager who had the audacity to drop Torres...

What happens if it's a Bradford v Swans final, and Bradford win? AFAIK, a team outside of the top 2 divisions can't represent England in UEFA competitions, and neither can the LC runner-up. Would one of the two clauses be waived in this case, or would the position simply be pushed back into the league?

(This is going on the assumption that I'm right in thinking Welsh clubs can represent England in Europe since a couple of years ago...)

So Arsenal might still get into Europe by coming 7th/8th? ;)

It's a FA decision. I can't see a way that they could deny Bradford a place.

But really can Bradford afford to go around playing in Europa League? or would they want to?

Of course they would want to go surely for revenue they have a big stadium .. Think of the attendances they could get and the revenue from being Europa ... Specially for a league 2 side that's millions !!! Also they could sign any player they wanted in their leagues cause every player wants to be in europe

Swans fans must be absolutely gutted at the state of their club since The Man With The Dossier left for the biggest job in world football.

If a dossier is a work-shy girlfriend then yes
