The last time they played.....

It was a friendly, so obviously they don't take it as seriously. Is it a sign of things to come? Or are the Red Devils going to tear Inter apart like Liverpool (hopefully we can keep 11 on the field this time). What do you guys think?

Maybe Scolari was Right......

So...... I totally got sucked in to watching the 1st half of the Brazil Italy friendly today, and I must say, it has been a while since I have seen such joga bonita displayed on the pitch...... by Brazil that is. The goal posted here may be an insight into why people say Robinho is the best striker out there. He absolutely schools 3 defenders, all of high callibur. Insane. Maybe Phil was right, he wouldn't have gotten dumped if he had roped in Robinho.

Good enough for Brazil, but not good enough for Chelsea



HOLY CRAP. Sim... maybe you saw this coming, but i'm shocked. So what's next? Mourinho reunion and reclaimed glory? or is this the beginning of chelsea's slide back to mid-table...

roman, your move.

Not Good Enough for Inter, but Good Enough for Chelsea


Rob Bell in many of his books gives a description many times of "The Kingdom" where the peace, or 'Shalom' of God is present in certain situations in life, where things are how they should be, how God intended for them to be. Well...... as far as where Chelsea, and Inter are respectively to each other, I feel like the Kingdom is near.

Ricardo Quaresma just didn't seem to be able to cut it with the calibur and prestige that is Inter Milan. So, to let him off to a place where he would be a fit (a lower calibur team) Inter briefly has off-loaded Quaresma to Chelsea. Now..... there was a time when things were different. When, in fact, Chelsea was offloading players to other teams when those said players were not reaching their potential. That is what Rob Bell would describe as Anti-Kingdom, the sadness and darkness of humanity has pulled things away from how they should be and something is terribly, terribly wrong. Fortunately, things were redeemed. Jose, the best coach in football is where he should be, with the best team, and now we are offloading the underacheivers to the Blues.

Thank the Lord. Everything is heading in the right Direction.
