Wow, I will be so amped if this were true- Destro is brilliant.

Don't even care if he's brilliant as long as Torres is gone I'm happy.

That and he's useless.
Nah they just signed Balotelli
I highly doubt Chelsea will get Destro... he is Roma's new Totti ain't no way Roma would take Torres over Destro

I'd prefer we take Torres then Eto off your hands
Well, Eto'o would only cost you wages, and he scores more than Torres...
But you guys have Super Mario now, so should be fine. Cracking signing.
If pool came knocking on the door for Torres, I'm sure Jose wouldn't mind giving him away for free

We made it hard for ourselves though. But the sort of performance Leicester put on, would have been enough to beat us last season. In the end, we grew into the game and saw it out comfortably. Costa is continuing with the level of consistency shown last season, but he will face much harder defences than this.
Oh, and Oscar's through ball to Ivanovic for the first goal- top class. That boy is well underrated.
This team is really good and I would imagine them getting much better as the the season progress....however, they did have quite a few wasted chances at the goal box, almost as if being over eager.....Leicester also missed an almost given goal, but hats off to Courtois with excellent goalkeeping. Looking forward to see how they develop further

Yeah, we wasted a lot of opportunities, and Leicester had a few good ones of their own (not to mention pegging us back for large spells). Which is why I felt that this is the exact sort of game that we would have lost last season.
The gap at times between defence and midfield was huge, particularly in the first half. It's a problem with the front six playing pressing football and the defence playing deep. As good as Terry is in our defence, I think he hampers the system due to his lack of mobility, and why we still look a bit suspect from direct attacks at times.
But that's OK for now, it's something that will be worked on as the season progresses.
I think this will be Terry's last season for us imo.
It's time to start looking for a replacement.

Yep, I think that Ivan should be moved back into the centre alongside Cahill in the short term- that defensive partnership was excellent under Rafa. Long term, we do have the likes of Kalas, Zouma, Christensen, Omeruo and more coming through, so I think we are fine there.
