Registered 9 years agoHe could just wait till and summer to go to another top 4 club, like spurs. Everton could then use the money to buy a world class striker from a mid-table club, like Suarez off Liverpool. -

Registered 8 years agoHaving watched Lopez play for Atletico Madrid on a number of occasions, I haven't seen anything to suggest that the Spain international could be the spark Arsenal need as they battle to stay in the top four this season. The 24-year-old forward has scored just two goals in 16 appearances this campaign and has notched only 25 strikes and ten assists in 172 La Liga matches. Considering Adrian is also often deployed on the left - a position for which Arsene Wenger signed Lukas Podolski in the summer - it would be a waste of the Gunners' savings to spend on the Atletico man in January.

Registered 3 years agoHeres a question for the Chelsea fans - your team have a double gameweek on the fantasy football this week, so im loading up on your players.
Ivanovic and Mata are already in, but i want to pick a striker too. Will Rafa do the sensible thing and pick the form striker (Ba) or will he pick the Spanish turd Mr Torres??
Cheers."Look at banner Michael!"

Registered 9 years ago@THFourteen I've said I would be suitably underwhelmed by a Lopez signing, especially compared to Hotlby.
Lopez is IMO far mroe likely to turn to a Gervinho/Chamakh (career of inconsistency before a purple-patch) than the next Villa.
The whole "next villa" type-casting really pisses me off. -

Rafa has only been at the club a short time so its hard to guess what he is thinking and Torres seems to have Abramovichs ear so I am interested to see how this will all pan out. Ba is cup tied tonight so if Rafa chooses to simply rotate them he would start against Stoke (hard team to score against) and then Torres will start against Southampton (could score a couple, could be shit and taken off after 60mins). I am keeping Ba in my team, I think there has never been a better time to be a striker at Chelsea with all the creativity in midfield and if he keeps getting in the right positions like he did at the weekend he will get plenty of goals.

Tempted to bring Joe Cole in, hes quite a cheap price.

Registered 10 years agoThis whole City returning tickets thing can only be good and hopefully will kick off a wider debate about ticket pricing. At the moment, it's being painted as just Arsenal, but City themselves charged us £56, Reading and QPR over £50 and Chelsea £59 (I think). -

Registered 10 years agoThe whole thing needs a huge rethink. First of all they need to rethink this whole "not televising 3:00 Saturday games" thing. It's such a load of bollocks. Then they need to rethink all-seater stadiums which is also a load of bollocks.
The really stupid thing is readressing both of these things would equal more money for everyone involved, making it even more astonishing they don't happen. -

Registered 7 years agoTicket prices are appalling. If you think you are paying a lot in the premiership, try going down a division. The price we pay to watch some proper shite is just appalling.
All the ex-premiership teams come down and dont take their ticket prices with them, so the leagues are littered with teams that havent adjusted for the fact that they are playing the likes of bristol and not chelsea.
In fact (soapbox) I recently filled in a lengthy questionnaire about the cost of attending football matches, canvassing a number of opinions on why you thought football was expensive and the things you they could do to help you get back through the gates (im a lapsed season ticket holder).
The idea they seemed most keen to push were kind of 'demi-season tickets' where you committed to attend a certain number of games (six seemed the most likely amount) and each game was discounted.
But it would have to be severely discounted for it to be anything like worth the money they are asking. If you think financial doping is bad to keep up with city, try the incentive of getting into the premier league.---------------------------------------------------------

Registered 10 years agoAs per my point above, I'd have less problem with the ticket prices if every game was televised. Then at least going to games would be for the elite, Sky or whatever for the moderately wealthy, and then pubs for everyone else. That way at least everyone has some way of seeing the football.
Just baffles me that most people simply can't watch the majority of their team's games. That's nuts. -

That's a bit harsh. The Championship is pretty decent league and prices are more competitive than the Premier League and probably about right for what people should pay for a football.

I pay £270 a season for my ticket and that price is frozen for 5 years and if you want to purchase a single ticket then you pay £25 a game which are pretty decent prices for a decent league.
We've also setup deals where you can buy half season tickets, offers with other teams where away fans from both clubs pay £10 and offer reduced rates for families etc.
However, some clubs do charge a bit over the top such as Leeds who are charging away fans £40-£45 a ticket which is just daylight robbery. -

Registered 7 years agoThe stupid thing is that you can actually watch most games online.
But its a double edged sword. They want the grounds to appear full for the tvs. I remember around a third of the ground being kids when they were forced to do kids for a quid on the day when we played west brom on telly a few years ago.---------------------------------------------------------
