Signs for Chelsea.

£30 million quid. That's next season's premiership wrapped up already then!

Dynamo Kiev.  I think I read that he's made it back from injury to get into the World Cup squad.

   Be interesting to see if Shevchenko does the business...I get the feeling that Eastern Europeans don't have a great record in England.

 Apart from the fact that neither are Eastern Europeans.....no...Rebrov came with a big reputation to Spurs did fuck all....Kasmierz Deyna came with a big reputation to Man City and fuck all...Sergei Yuran came with a big reputatuion to Millwall and did a lot of shopping and drinking.

all had semi big reps from home countries, shevchenko is a proven goalscorer in seria a and in champs league, missing piece in chelseas jigsaw. wot do people think, good for prem or not?

Chelsea have pissed on the league in last two seasons without a goal scorer, imagine what will happen this season. Thank god for league 2 and the likes of big trev

Sheva, Chena, Wanko, twat
Came over here, to score goals and that
Grab the cash down Stamford way
Where girls are men, and men are gay
Consult the wife, then leave Milan
Watch them and Juve go down the pan
No doubt you'll score goals on the pitch
Whilst Kenyon sucks off Abrahmovich
But it's Reds who win European Cups
You fucked it up from 3-0 up

Best attempt at some late night poetry, really fucking hate anything to do with chelsea

I think he won't be very good. Sure, he'll bag a couple like Mutu did, but I can't see him producing the results that Van Nistelrooy did in his first couple of seasons, and definitely not like Henry does.

Fair point Kanchelskis was reasonable....no just struck me that eastern Europeans so far haven't seemed to impose themselves on English Football....suppose Cech has done well.


Title: Shevchenko
Post by: Simon Pieman on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 10:08:47
Kanchelskis was a class act, he was probably the best winger in the country for a while, but definitely had problems and couldn't sustain his good form. So I think that makes Reg's argument just as sound.

Post by: Reg Smeeton on Thursday, June 1, 2006, 10:16:27
Our Eastern Europeans haven't been up to much.....Miklos Nagy, a Hungarian from the 50's and Petr Mikolanda....

  I'm assuming Lukas to be English?

 The Sh**ty got in a few,  Vilmos Sebok, who was in the Hungarian squad, but crap in the second tier, and Ion Testimatanu.   Jackie Djakanovski (sp)

  Suppose Dan Pet Rescue wasn't bad.

Rovers had that Astafjevs fella for a few seasons didn't they. I think he was one of their better players if I remember rightly.

Gulp. I hope Berbatov is a bit good then.

Karel Poborsky was another who was dodgy, and then there was Gica Popescu, Ilie Dumitrescu, and i think West Ham had a couple who were shite too...

Shevchenko was the 2004 world player of they year so in theory he should be much better than Crespo or Morientes.

Chelsea seem to be getting in a lot of old highly paid players though and it remains to be seen if it'll work or they'll just have a team full of overpaid overrated big names like Real Madrid. Shevchenko and Ballack are fair enough but fuck knows why they want Carlos.

I will never foget or ignore our history. I know that we are punching well above our weight at the moment but that doesnt stop me remembering old 3rd and 4th division games at Elm Park. My opinion on the Madejski is that it will never replace Elm Park in my heart. Atmospheres just not the same - i dont like seating full stop.
I am just going to enjoy the Premership next season because i know our visit may be a brief one - I am sure you would do the same :wink:

We did a few years ago !

Remember going to Elm Park for Boxing Day 1987. All I remember was being bloody cold and the loos being disgusting ! Didn't remember the score until I just looked it up (1-0 Quinn). Remember we had a goalkeeper on loan - was it Dearden ? (Edit: No it was Paul Crichton)

I remember going to the County Ground the same season! Dad took me to my first away game and we lost 4-0 in think! :(  It was only about 4 games into the season and for an 11 year old it was hard to take :cry:

I think Carlos is a smokescreen for Cole who seems to be doing his damndest to get out of the Arse.

Better out than in as his mobile would say.
