Chelsea recently smashed the British transfer record with their 50 million deal to sign Fernando Torres from Liverpool. There is no doubt that Torres is a world cla s striker, arguably the best in the world, but I just feel as if it is going to highlight Chelseas desperate need to spend elsewhere.I believe Chelsea have gone from winning back to back championships in 2005 and 2006 to winning only one in the past four years because they have never really replaced one man, no not Jose Mourinho, no not Claude Makelele but Arjen Robben. Until they find a suitable replacement for the explosive winger I fear they may never win the Champions League.Chelsea mi s that spark that
Derek Sanderson Men Jersey all great teams have. That one player who is a magician on the ball, who can dribble it around one, two even three players and produce that killer pa s at the end. The player that sells tickets on his own and gets them ticket holders off their feet. Arjen Robben was that player at Chelsea and to their own detriment I dont believe they have found an acceptable replacement.Robbens time at Chelsea was an injury plagued one, but for the few months he was fully fit he lit up premier league grounds acro s the country with his delightful dribbling and lightning quick pace. He scored 15 goals in 67 appearances for The Blues which does not seem like a lot, but many of them were critical such as the opener in a 2-0 win at Highbury in 2005. However, it is not the goals that were Robbens most e sential attribute to the Chelsea team; it was his ability to open up defences with his quick, direct dribbling or his inch perfect cro sing from the byline. He would scare the life out of full backs and centre halfs alike. This not only puts them on the back foot but also keeps them so preoccupied with trying to tie down Robben that it allows space and time for other players to work their magic. Robben was imperative to the way Chelsea played. He gave them that cutting edge and attacking
Danton Heinen Men Jersey flair that the great Gianfranco Zola used to bring. When defenders looked at the team sheet prior to the game and saw that Robben was starting they knew they had a tough afternoon ahead of them, I dont believe many of the Chelsea players since then, excluding a certain Didier Drogba, have given defenders such nightmares before a game. It is this cutting edge, this pace, this flair, this ability to open a defence which Chelsea have been lacking in recent years. The year since Arjen Robben was sold to Real Madrid.
Now I hear some of you shouting about Joe Cole and Frank Lampard and Florent Malouda. But as good as each of these guys are, none of them can bring what Arjen Robben did. Joe Cole did have the ability to open up defences with a sublime flick or incisive through ball, but he never delivered week in week out. Joe was never ble sed with pace so if his tricks
Steven Kampfer Women Jersey and turns didnt work he never had a plan B. Robben on the other hand could beat players with bare pace if all else failed. Of course Joe Cole brought other qualities, especially under Jose Mourinho where he became a more rounded player, learning the importance of tracking back. But this is the exact opposite to what Chelsea currently need. The club has numerous ball winners in the side such as Michael E sien and John Obi Mikel. Mourinho should have allowed these players to do just that and this would have released Cole to provide the bit of flair needed. Instead Mourinho made Joe into a more conservative, team player which was the opposite of
Torey Krug Jersey his natural game. As a defender I would much prefer to play against Joe Cole the conservative team player than Joe Cole the tricky, skilful man beater he once was. On top of this Mourinho fell out with Robben and sold him to Madrid. In the space of 6 months Mourinho had managed to rid Chelsea of all its attacking flair and replace it with yet another industrious winger in Florent Malouda. Something which I believe cost them the next three Championships.The obvious caveat to this argument is that Chelsea brought in Deco who is that special playmaker I have been crying out for. However, Deco never really looked like he had the hunger to play for the club, I mean he had already won 2 La Liga titles and 2 Champions Leagues; he had come for the payday. Someone young and exciting is what was needed.There are numerous example of how such a creative player is needed to win trophies. If we look at some of the great teams of recent times we can see that they won major trophies with a world beating creative player in their side, whether playing in the hole behind the strikers or on the wing. The obvious examples are Lionel Me si for Barcelona and Cristiano Ronaldo for Manchester United/Real Madrid. Both of these have played the starring roles as their clubs won their respective leagues and the Champions League. So much so that when Ronaldo left United they lost the league title for the first time in three years. Its safe to say that without Me sis amazing goal record Barcelona too would struggle to retain their championship. Looking at other examples we can see that Inter Milan won the treble last season with Wesley Sneijder at the heart of that team. Sneijder also won the Champions Leagues MVP for that season. Their opponents in that final were Bayern Munich who
John Moore Women Jersey also won the Bundesliga last year. Is it a coincidence that Arjen Robben scored important goals in the quarter and semi finals of the Champions League for Bayern as well as winning the German Player of the Year in his first season at the club? Kaka was fundamental when Milan won the Champions League in 2007. Tottenhams Champions League qualification push last season was down to the form of their pacey, creative winger Gareth Bale. They have now found an even more creative player in Rafael Van Der Vaart who has propelled them into the Champions League knockout stage for the first time. Athletico Madrid won the Europa League last season with Sergio Aguero in stunning form and even le s noticeable teams such as Blackpool have that one creative player that can run past players or pull the strings from midfield in Charlie Adam.Now I dont believe it is a coincidence that each of the players I have mentioned above
David Backes Women Jersey are arguably the best players at their club. I think it takes a special type of player to be succe sful in the role I am talking about and those players that are world cla s in that position are a rare breed and cost an awful lot of money to obtain. These players are the best players at their club because they are so important as to whether that club is succe sful or not. When each of the above clubs won their respective trophies it was largely down to the players mentioned. Without them, they probably would never have won them trophies. On the back of this it is fair to say that any of the above would walk into the current Chelsea team. Thats because Chelsea do not have any player of that type. If Arjen Robben was still in the squad would it be so ea
Due to time constraints the normal style of match report on here has not been po sible. Here is a few reactions from the Southampton game
Morgan Rielly Women Jersey though:1. Were fantastically entertaining. When match day tickets, and season ticket prices, were announced to be on the increase at the start of the season many felt that they had been priced out of visiting London Road.Yet, even after dropping down a level, few could complain about the amount of entertainment at London Road this season and weve certainly got value for money. A ma sive 77 goals have been scored here in just 15 games. And with ma ses being scored and conceded under Johnson, since Ferguson has returned the average has increased further. 20 goals have been in seen in just 3 games at London Road, since Fergusons re-appointment. In-fact we are still to see a homegame, in league or cup,which has had le s than 3 goals! And we have the cheapest ticket price per goal ratio in the Football League!2. Lee Tomlin, Craig Mackail-Smith and George Boyd are the best attacking line-up in the division. Whilst Southamptons strike-force is lauded, and rightly so, they have some excellent players, this trio has the makings of being even better than the previous trinity and is, beyond doubt, the best attacking line-up in this league. Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain has been tipped for a ma sive move from the Saints but if any scouts were there then they may well have reported back that they should be looking at Lee Tomlin instead. Tomlin is an incredible player; the ability he has to make something out of nothing is outstanding and rarely found outside the top division in this country. Hehas already become a key player in this side and will continue to develop further he only made the step up from the Conference in the summer. 125,000 for him
Tyler Ennis Jersey is an absolute bargain and he is already worth over 10 times this amount, in my opinion. It is no surprise that Kevin Ru sell has said that Tomlin is the best player that he has ever worked with this week. Moving onto Mackail-Smith, who had one of his best appearances in a Posh shirt on Saturday. Whilst we see his tirele s effort week after week he never ceases to amaze me. His first goal showed all his good qualities and as soon as the ball bounced beyond Seaborne there was only ever going to be one player who got to the ball. The finish wassuperb and whilst Mackail-Smith has been a tad wasteful in previous seasons he has now added a predatory instinct to his game. Make sure to register your votes for him to be 2010 player of the year here: 3. The return of Darren Ferguson has brought London Road back to life. After weeks of having lifele sne s around Peterborough United Football Club all of a sudden there is a buzz again. A buzz that hasnt been there since last time he was at the club. London Road was rocking at times on Saturday and it
Mats Sundin Jersey is a credit to the style of football we are playing under him too were looking to pa s the ball when attacking rather than smashing it aimle sly down the channels for Mackail-Smith
Borje Salming Kids Jersey to chase after as we had a tendency to do under Johnsons reign. Personally, I was beginning to find it hard to gather the motivation to continue to travel to away games on a regular basis towards the end of Johnsons reign. Dare I say it following Posh was starting to become more of a chore than something enjoyable. Now, its how I remember it before and its a question of counting the days until the next game Posh feels special again. The players seem to have realised it too. Weve taken 7 points (out of a po sible 15) since Fergusons return in what have been a tricky set of fixtures against Hartlepool, Brighton and Southampton under Johnson wedidnt gain apoint. And whilst the points tally has not been ma sive we have remained competitivein every fixture since Ferguson has returned andprobablyhave deserved more points than the amount of points we have got.There is also a noticeable fighting spiritin the team, something that was pivotal when Fergie JNR was here before
Lanny Mcdonald Men Jersey , and this side just doesnt give up. No longer do we roll over for big clubs. We stood toe to toe with the biggest, and arguably the best, team at this level and matched them for 90 minutes.
4. If we could defend we would be top of this league. It is, of course, a basic thing to say. You dont need to have watched Posh to realise where the problems lie. The table shows you all you need to know. 55 goals conceded in 27 games. Indeed, only second bottom Bristol Rovers have conceded more. And, although we simply cannotrevert fromour strategy of trying to out-score the opposition our strengths lies in attack we must improve at the back. The return of Gabriel Zakuani should improve things but considering we have a defence that cost over a 1,000,000 to put together this tally should be far better than it currently is.5. Incompetent officials plague this division. Whilst both sides canbeunsatisfiedwith the referee on Saturday he awarded both teams a dubious penalty we have the most right to complain. Not only did he mi s a number of blatant fouls on Mackail-Smith throughout the game. Richard Chaplows dive should have resulted in a yellow card, his second of the match, and then we would have had almost a half playing against ten men of Southampton with the scoreline at 2-2. Would we have won the game? Who knows. But it would have certainly been an easier prospect than having to fight back from two goals behind against 11 men for the second time in the game. The fact the penalty awarded to us at the end, for hand-ball, which appeared to strike Oxlade-Chamberlain on the rib-cage, may have gone some way to
Cody Ceci Kids Jersey making amends but his decision to award a second penalty to Southampton may well have cost us three points.Up The Posh
Three days after the dust begins
Timothy Liljegren Kids Jersey to settle from the outcry at Old Trafford on Saturday, there has been adequate time to reflect on the situation. Luis Suarez, the man at the centre of all the controversy, refused to shake Patrice Evras hand before the match kicked off, opening a whole new can of worms in the latest twist to the seemingly never ending saga. Whether Suarez was rightly or wrongly charged with using racist language to Evra, in his own mind he feels he is innocent so you can see why he would not want to shake hands with the United left back. However Suarez had told the club and his manager Dalglish that he would indeed shake Evras hand before the game so he put the club, and mainly the manager who has supported him unequivocally, in a
Doug Gilmour Men Jersey very awkward situation.Liverpool and Dalglish had released comments prior to the match, that Suarez would take part in the handshake so the refusal to do so meant Suarez had deceived his manager and Liverpool
Cody Ceci Women Jersey football club. Reportedly due to the American owners of Liverpool, firstly Suarez via twitter i sued a public apology for not shaking hands, followed by statements from Kenny Dalglish apologising for his post match comments after being told, contrary to what he thought and what was agreed with Suarez, had happened. Club C.E.O Ian Ayre also released a statement explaining that Suarez actions were unacceptable and he had been made clear that it will not be tolerated by Liverpool FC.However, my main gripe is with Manchester United manager Sir Alex. Here lies one of the greatest managers of all time but his comments regarding Suarez were hypocritical and just plain wrong. Ferguson stated that Suarez should never play for LFC
Darcy Tucker Kids Jersey again and is a disgrace to LFC. These comments coming from the man who watched Eric Cantona kung fu kick a fan in the crowd, Rio Ferdinand
Nikita Zaitsev Women Jersey mi sing a drugs test and subsequently banned, Wayne Rooney cheating on his pregnant girlfriend and then holding the club to ransom over their ambition and the whole Ryan Giggs injunction affair. Did we see Sir Alex saying either of them players should never play for Manchester United again? No, and all them actions were far worse than a non handshake.There is no doubt that Suarez and Liverpool FC were right to apologise over the whole i sue as they were in the wrong re: what had been agreed beforehand, but it doesnt make Fergusons comments right in the slightest. Managers naturally will defend their own players to the hilt, especially Kenny Dalglish who remains fiercely loyal to his players so no one will feel more let down than him by the Uruguayan, but Sir Alex had no need to display those comments after the goings on in the past at his own club.

Tiger Williams Women Jersey Insurance Cup after a fine 7-2 victory over First Division Dunfermline.The SPL Champions made 7 changes to the side who beat Dundee United 4-0 on Saturday with Neil Alexander, Andrew Little, Kirk Broadfoot, Andy Webster, Steven Naismith, Kyle Hutton and Kyle Lafferty coming into the starting line-up. But it was 4m signing Nikica Jelavic who opened the scoring for Rangers after 21 minutes when the Croatian International poked the ball past Chris Smith from Broadfoots cro s.After a slack start, Kyle Lafferty burst into action just two minutes later when weaved into

Steven Naismith got the other with a looping header which ended a great night for Rangers in the League Cup and send them into the next round.
Its great to see the premiership with another superstar in the shape of Luis Suarez. Superstars have been in abundance over the premiership years with the likes of Zola, Henry, Bergkamp, Ronaldo, etc but Suarez is the next on that prestigious list. Yes vast
Darryl Sittler Women Jersey quantities of money have been spent this season but apart from perhaps Aguero their were no new superstars brought to
Ben Harpur Men Jersey the premiership.Aguero is cla s and finishes well but does he have the magic of Suarez. Aguero also has the luxury of the other new superstar of the premiership to gift wrap most of his goals David Silva and boy can he play but
Andreas Borgman Women Jersey when youve been brought through the ranks withe like of Xavi and Iniesta is this no suprise.So back to Suarez who has that je ne sais quoi or as the latest interpretation spells it out the Swagger. This is a player who has it all to become the biggest star in the premiership and
Jake Gardiner Men Jersey potentially the next in line to Me si/Ronaldo, I still find it hard to split these two.He has the drive, selfishne s, desire and
Jake Muzzin Jersey most of the technical ability to succeed anywhere. Liverpool got him at a snip at 22m and already he is double that value. If they spent 35m on Carroll then by that comparison hes worth 100m but then how much would Me si be worth?
So were ble sed
Tyson Barrie Men Jersey to have the pleasure to watch this player week in week out and with Kenny at the helm Im sure this combination will make Liverpool a force to be reckoned with again.
Im now onto my third Npower Championship preview of Leicester Citys opponents 2011/2012. This time I set my focus on Blackpool, the Seasiders set the Premier League alight last season, but unfortunately for Ian Holloways side they tailed off towards the end of the campaign and eventually felt the force of the deadly drop, as they were relegated back to the Championship at the first attempt, can Holloway conquer the Championship this season or
Adam Cracknell Jersey will the Seasiders settle for a mid-table finishBlackpool PreviewAfter a memorable season in the Premier League Blackpool sadly said goodbye to the first tier, as despite a cracking start in 10/11 the Seasiders failed to match the promise they showed in the first half of the season, as they eventually felt the force of deadly relegation. This now means that Blackpool will take part in the Npower Championship after a season away from the second tier; pundits may well claim that Blackpool will be the weakest of the three relegated sides; however manager Ian Holloway has resulted in some superior
Cody Ceci Jersey signings as most notably striker Kevin Phillips and the experienced Barry Ferguson have joined the club. The Seasiders love to play a bra s of attacking football and they will certainly have threats coming from the wide flanks, they will look to score a handful of goals in the 11/12 campaign but the defence also needs to be secure. Ian Holloways side are capable of another promotion; however with the Npower Championship being a formidable division, a premature return to the Premier League may well be out of the question.Key PlayersAfter the departure of Charlie Adam to Liverpool, the Seasiders will now have to pursue a new breed of players which will be influential to their promotion challenge. With Adam being the key part of the Blackpool side, replacement candidates to be the key players for the Seasiders will be knocking on the door in the early stages of the season. Some names that have potential include wingers Matt Phillips and Gary Taylor-Fletcher, both players made an impact in the Premier League last term as highly rated Phillips caused plenty of problems. Signed from Wycombe the 20 year old tricky winger will have a big part to play, meanwhile Taylor-Fletcher is more
Jake Gardiner Jersey established than young Matt Phillips. Taylor-Fletcher can play as a winger and as striker, capable of scoring goals and causing opposition defences headaches he will also be a vital part of the Blackpool side. Finally 38 year old Super Kevin Phillips has entered the fray at Bloomfield Road, even though he is coming to the end of what has been an illustrious career, he can still score goals on a regular basis. This proves that Blackpool has plenty of attacking threats for the season ahead.Manager Ian HollowayIan Holloway is one of the most eccentric and colourful managers in English football, with his comical impre sion and his serious quotes the former Leicester City bo s has brought a vast of quality attacking football to Bloomfield Road over the past two seasons. Securing promotion via the Play-
Cody Ceci Women Jersey offs in season 2009/2010 after many pundits clearly wrote the team off at the start of that campaign, Blackpool then amazed football fans last season, by beating the likes of Liverpool and Tottenham but Holloway couldnt manage to keep the Seasiders afloat, as they were eventually relegated back to the Championship. Holloway has vast experience with numerous Championship sides, he will most likely cause conflict between the media but the 48 year old is clearly backed by Chairman Karl Oyston, this season Holloway could well manage Blackpool to another succe sful season
Nic Petan Kids Jersey whether that includes another promotion is an entirely differentmatter.

Ian Evatt and Alex
Eric Fehr Kids Jersey Baptiste in defence is a solid partnership, while the experience of Barry Ferguson will certainly help. Blackpools major threat will come from the wings; however due to the departure of Charlie Adam, and with Dj Campbell also po sibly heading out of the exit door they could lack goals. They should reach the heights of the play-offs, but staying in the top six for the majority of the season is unlikely. Prediction 9th
Under fire West Ham bo s Avram Grant is set to be preparing a shock six month loan deal for Liverpool winger Joe Cole, who Grant believes won
Billy Smith Men Jersey t fit into new Liverpool manager Kenny Dalglishs plans for the rest of the season.Cole, 29, scored ten in goals in 126 appearances for West Ham,
Nick Leddy Men Jersey his first club, between 1998 and 2003. Cole then moved to Chelsea where in the 2007-08 season, current Hammers bo s Grant was manager. When Grant was sacked after le s than a season at the Chelsea helm, Cole sent him a very touching me sage
Adam Pelech Women Jersey about how much he had enjoyed his time under the Israeli.Liverpool would be happy to see off Cole for the
Matt Martin Jersey remainder of the season, making the move beneficial for all parties involved. The struggling England winger signed for Liverpool on a free in the summer when Roy Hodgson was in charge. Cole has failed to spark life
Matt Martin Men Jersey into Liverpool though, scoring once in 11 appearances all season.Meanwhile, Former Aston Villa bo s Martin ONeill has said he wont be replacing Grant, apparently appalled at the West Ham boards treatment of their current man at the top.
Sam Allardyce, formerly of Blackburn is now the main
Valtteri Filppula Kids Jersey target for the Hammers, although exNewcastle gaffer Chris Houghton is also set to be contacted.
The Stoke City manager Tony Pulis has stated that his team can collect points and even win the match against Manchester United in the lunchtime encounter on Sunday. Ever since Stoke City have been in the Premier League, since the 2008/09 season, they have never collected a point against the Red
Semyon Varlamov Kids Jersey Devils in the four games played. Stoke have not even scored a goal against Manchester United in the Premier League. The matches were played on November 15th 2008 (Man Utd 5 0 Stoke), December 26th 2008 (Stoke 0 1 Man Utd), September 26th 2009 (Stoke 0
Valtteri Filppula Men Jersey 2 Man Utd) and May 9th 2010 (Man Utd 4 0
Thomas Hickey Women Jersey Stoke). This means that in the past two years, Stoke have conceded 12 goals against United and failed to score a single goal. Stoke currently rank 10th in the Premier League table with 10 points, four le s than Uniteds (5th place) 14 points. United have been somewhat disappointing away from home this season
New York Islanders Jacket , and the media spotlight being continuously on the team recently with the Rooney saga, which has now been clarified after Wayne signed a new contract, was said to be disrupting the squad harmony. Despite Rooneys drop in form, Manchester United have still found goals this season as Berbatov has re-discovered his goalscoring form, scoring 6 in 8 appearances. One key absentee for Stoke is Dean Whitehead, but United also have an
Denis Potvin Women Jersey important player mi sing about which much was said lately, Wayne Rooney. Chicharito and Berbatov are expected to start up front. The full expected line-up is goalkeeper Van der Sar, full-back Rafael and Evra, central defence partners Ferdinand and Vidic, Flether and Nani on the wings, Carrick and Scholes in the centre of midfield, and striking pair Berbatov and
Clark Gillies Women Jersey Hernandez. Prediction: In this match we are expecting Manchester United to register their first away win this season. United should be able to put two goals or more past opposition goalkeeper Sorensen.
I write to you today on the back of one of the most ludicrous transfer sagas in the history of the Premier League and indeed profe sional football itself. Wayne Rooney last week not satisfied with a meagre 90,000 a week throws his proverbial dummy out the pram, causes one big kafuffle and almost gets himself killed by a mob of United fans all for the sake of adding to his needle sly vast amount of worth.Only 90,
Jason Chimera Kids Jersey 000?! He asks? Our hearts bleed for him Im sure. Whilst working cla s folk up and down the country are struggling to afford their next meal let alone a place to live, you Wayne play the victim in this twisted football soap opera and openly insult not only your team-mates but the whole
Josh Bailey Women Jersey country in your outburst.This rant isnt reserved for just Wayne himself however and more the cretins in the FA headquarters who have let this sorry state of affairs continue. Just thirty minutes before writing this entry I check my emails and find a me sage concerning my small-time football video site liquidfootball.co.uk. Due to copyright infringement of the Premier League we ask you to take down all audio visual content immediately it read, or words to that effect anyway. I feel physically sick right now. Premier League football clubs can afford to pay people in which we have to admit (no matter how much we love the game) just kick a ball for a living. Whilst much
Tom Kuhnhackl Men Jersey le s well-off people such as students like me for example hoping to use their love of football to generate some extra cash in these tough financial times are ordered to remove a few poxy football videos from a site that barely attracts more than twenty visitors a day anyway. My site which provides Premier League highlights from 3rd party sites is apparently an urgent concern to the FA who wish to remove it ASAP because God forbid people go and watch highlights on my site instead of watching them later on the BBC of which the vast majority have a TV license for anyway.So, what the hell is the problem? This cannot go on. People cannot be paying an exce s of 50 a week and all the expenses that come with it to watch their beloved football club play whilst their players take home vast pay packets. Something needs to be done. Surely
Adam Pelech Men Jersey after all this pandemonium its about time we see a wage cap in English football? If we were to cap all English football wages at 20,000 a week, I think it would be of huge benefit to the game. Who cares if the change sees the departure of a few egotistical, greedy footballers who move abroad in search of more money? The benefits we will see as a result will more than counteract the lo s of better players.
All of a sudden the Premier League will be English again. Its not that we as fans havent enjoyed the influx of foreign players who have lit up the Premier League in recent years (Zola, Cantona and Ronaldo come to mind) but its fair to say we
Bryan Trottier Kids Jersey ve probably gone too much in the other direction.The race for the Premier League title has become excruciatingly boring recently and a wage cap would mean clubs like Manchester City with rich sheiks will no longer be able to buy the league; it will all of a sudden become competitive again with a number of clubs in the running to be Premier League champions. And whats more, the quality of young English players will improve astronomically which will work wonders for our national team. Last but not least, the idea of a club being in debt or crumbling into liquidation will be a thing of the past. Clubs will be united as one and fans will finally see their players play for the love of the game once again, not the huge pay packet that comes with it. And 20,000 a week, its worth noting, is not exactly a paltry sum by any stretch of the imagination! Top players will
Matt Martin Women Jersey still be able to live the comfortable lifestyle they are used to without the financial destruction that others have to suffer because of it.
