Apparently, he said a tackle Son made was more like martial arts than football

Heard that.

Reminded me of the World Cup when Jenas shoe horned in "Chink in their armour" when Japan played Croatia then him and his co com went waffling on with samurai puns

Draw is always a bad result in a relegation 6 pointer like this. Bet Everton and Leicester are vexed.

Osimhen gotta get back in the goals and seal the Capocannoniere. Martinez only 4 goals behind him now. Gotta win the scudetto and golden boot.

Kvara and co need to find the boy and stop with the hero ball.

Quick question fella.

Who did Liverpool lose to on the final day of the 02\03 season in a battle for the last Champions League place?

Just a one word answer will do.

And I have a follow up question.

If my memory serves me correctly we failed to beat Leeds on that final day which meant YOU got the final champions league place

Which made Abramovich change his mind on who to buy, you were not his first choice, he wanted to buy Spurs but Levy didn't want to sell the whole club

Next question please

This guy any good, my La Liga connoisseur brehs?

He's probably going to Real Madrid or some other team, but the reporters are using our name for clicks.

We did get the last Champions League place...by beating YOU on the final day. Free history lesson there for you, brother.

Next question please

Between the 96/97 - 02/03 season, Chelsea did the following:

FA Cup (1997)
League Cup (1998)
UEFA Cup Winners' Cup (1998)
UEFA Super Cup (1998)
Charity Shield (2000)
FA Cup (2000)
Qualified for the CL twice
Qualified for the Uefa Cup twice

Here's how they finished in the league table during that run:

1996-97: 6th
1997-98: 4th
1998-99: 3rd
1999-2000: 5th
2000-01: 6th
2001-02: 6th
2002-03: 4th

Now onto my question: were Chelsea in receipt of oil money during this period?

Just a simple yes or no answer, brother.

And I have a follow up question.
