Liverpool are plain and simply not good enough. Alonso and Garcia are the most overrated uninfluencial players ever.
They are nothing more than a very expensive Wimbledon.

news of the world paper btw
Liverpool played right into Chelsea's hands by pushin forward and leavin them space to get in behind. But on sayin that the score-line wasn't a fair reflection in my opinion...
Still, the table doesn't lie and Liverpool are really struggling at the moment...
:lol:
Do you think Alan Hansen is on the Chelsea pay roll? If teams weren't scared stupid of them before they would be if they watched him hype them up every week on motd. No-one else stands a chance with all the hype about the money they spent and strength of the squad, 90% of the prem were beaten as soon as they saw when they'll be playing Chelsea this season.
It's not even as if they have many world class players, there's only Cech and maybe Cudicini who can't play at the same time anyway.
It's funny how Chelsea's fans think everyone's jealous and they do play good football, dunno why a real legend like Johan Cruyf would be jealous mind!
Plus you'd need to have your head stuck up Mourinho's arse not to see how boring they are of course.
Says it all :lol:Quote:

world class individuals throughout the team yeah,but a world class team? world class football?? nope.
I sort of agree. Mourinho is very good at his job he has them organized into a very tight unit. It isn’t pretty allot of the time but it works. Shame really though because they have some wonderful players who don’t show it all the time due to they way they play. I wouldn’t even say that they were that amazing against us in our last game. Was evenly matched going into the 2nd half, wasn’t until we fell asleep that they looked that good.
exactly.anywayz i cant be arsed whingeing about the game anymore,whats done is done.
I'd say they were a world class team look at how many goals they have scored for ****s sake.They just have patient build up play which is what the Italians have been doing for years.People like you lot have been moaning for ages saying we should be more like the Italians and when people finally do become more like em they get slated.
The British mentality is to moan about what we are jealous of.
thats a very fair comment.... clearly you watched the game, unlike nick...Quote:

And most of Chelsea's goals come from long balls and set pieces where useless lumps like Drogba can be quite effective, plus most teams are scared shitless of them anyway and were never going to get a result.

duff-already mentioned
Robben-already mentioned
Crespo-if he was still at Milan you'd be wanking over him.
It's simple you are just jealous of the Chelsea team.
You made out it was a british thing, and that Chelsea's detractors were jealous, plus it was clear you weren't just referring to me. Anyway, Robben and Duff aren't world class for a start, whenever they're up against decent full backs they're ineffective. Even if the full backs in question were world class, they should be giving them some problems if they too are world class, but that's not the case.
As for Lampard, Gerrard is world class, he's as good as Lampard in every respect, but a much better tackler, dribbler and leader, so if Gerrard is the benchmark, Lampard falls short, good though he may be. Terry - lacks pace and looks a bit dodgy for England where he's much more exposed. Makele - he's so disciplined and workmanlike it's hard to say he's world class, plus his defending is quite cynical at times, though he could maybe be considered world class.
Crespo - can't even get in the team ahead of Drogba and until he proves himself in the premiership he can't be considered truly world class. And I said Cech is world class, probably the best in the world. You can say I'm jealous all you want, but that doesn't make it so. It's not like I'm saying Arsenal are full of world class players and Chelsea have none. I just don't throw the term 'world class' around like confetti, like some people seem to do.
There's only 3 players in the Premiership who are undoubtedly world class (now) in my book - Henry, Gerrard and Cech. If I was just jealous of Chelsea I wouldn't include Cech in that would I?
i have got to agree with will...the confetti analogy is quite right... lampard falls very short and in another team would be your average joe or a big fish in a little pond... the chelsea system works and they are good at what they do, but they are not 'world class' in the sense that all their players would get into any team on the planet. the point is not made out of jealousy, but simply to bring down all those hyper-inflated hosanas of that blue team from the south. quite a lot of perspective has been lost since the financial machine took the limelight
Cheers Dan. :cool: Needless to say I agree with what you said on the matter also.
I was on about you but yeah most of Chelseas detractors are purely jealous of them,even Barcalona(who are still bitter about being arse raped by them).
It's so obvious that you are blinded by jealousey so i wont even continue this argument.One thing i will say is tho,
Cech,Henry and Gerrard?
So is Rooney not world class either?
no he is not... he has the potential to be, but lets see him do it over time.... im sure we all remember michael owen and robbie fowler who at the start of their careers were awesome, robbie especially... but they faltered. having one of two good seasons is not going to put him in the realms of noticeable football history...
and he spends as much time off the pitch as on it.
but no one doubts his skill.
Niether had the same impact that Wayne Rooney has had,especially not at international level.
are you having a laugh? robbie could not stop scoring and his skill was awesome. after his broken leg he lost everything, but before that he could quite easily have gone on to be the best ever striker... but its all ifs and buts which is why i say the same about rooneyQuote:

oh ok then.
YOU brought up the international scene.... THAT is not the issue....Quote:

Clearly it is you that are jealous of the teams that have earned their place at the top and you're glad to see some fellow nobodies doing well instead of the teams that have earned it for a change! And Barcelona were slagging off Chelsea before the games and if thay'd kept their mouths shut they'd probably have won. So wrong again!Quote:

I'm not saying these players are crap, just they haven't quite proven they're world class yet, but clearly that means I'm jealous because I don't rate them quite as highly as you when I have the 2nd best player in the world in my team. :roll:

I think the euro champs proved Rooney is world class as he was Englands best player by a mile,his performances in the Champions league have also done the same.
Rooney is world class and as much as you dont like him you have to agree or you are just an tool to be fair.I know people have opinions on things and fair do's but saying he isnt world class is like saying Madonna hasn't had a successfull carear.
impact on the international scene? does that not have a little something to do with the players around you? the supply? and the tactics and so forth? comparing robbies england time to the one rooney was getting a while back isn't really fair... and i do not have anything against rooney, but i wont call him world class right now. no way
So you believe his performance in the Euro Champs was down to the players around him?Quote:
