  Like this is going to change the fact that Essien is hurt, Drogba is a whiny pouter, Ashley Cole is massively overrated, and Ballack just plain stinks. 8-)

  How about Harry Redknapp for Chelsea manager NP?

  Better Rednapp than Deadnap, as Roman would say.
  
  Actually I got free tickets to see Spurs v Arsenal on Sunday. It was a draw, against Arsenal's 10 men. Good, spirited game but Spurs just lacked that forward attack, a keen striker to get through, despite all their chances. At games, you always get people leaving 10 minutes from the end to get to the car park to avoid the rush, but they sometimes miss late goals.
  
  Of course, Spurs aren't doing too well at the moment, despite Harry's fine start.

  Here's a little snippet from the above article.
  
  
  'The Brazilian had been denied the resources of his predecessors, yet still carries the can for the disappointing results, making him the Timothy Dalton of the Chelsea dugout.
  
  ED is so pleased with that hackneyed James Bond analogy that, for the sake of completion, it will brand Jose Mourinho as Sean Connery (suave, uncompromising and, ultimately, the best), Claudio Ranieri as Roger Moore (using his affable wit and charm to distract onlookers from his other shortcomings) and Avram Grant as George Lazenby (not invited back despite a decent first effort that looks even better with the passing of time).'
  
  
  As a Liverpool supporter I'm not really bothered what goes on at Chelsea but the more confusion the better

  Guus Hiddink will be managing Chelsea until the end of the season. I think that it's a brilliant move, although I wonder why it isn't permanent. Yes, I know he coaches Russia, but, and correct me if I'm wrong, aren't there other national managers who also coach clubs?
