    He was hugged and pulled away by team mates.. like most players who celebrate are...

    I've spoken to several Chelsea fans because I had no clue what he was on about and that's what they've all said.

    I think they're wrong- after all they are Chelsea fans.

    The Eto'o celebration was targetted at someone sat behind Lampard somewhere... that's why Lampard was looking backwards and smiling at someone whilst this was going on.

    Every goal scored against Hull City is personally offensive to me, yes.

    Anelka is sporting a very Muslim-esque beard at the moment too.. is this related to the anti-semitic tendencies of Dieudonné and his ilk?

    Are we turning this thread into a discussion of the WBA-Everton match?

    Been a decent game so far. Good goal from Mirallas, 1-0 at the moment.

    Jerry Rice wide receiver for the San Fransisco 49ers said it best. When he scored a touchdown he just went and sat down. When the press asked him about it he said that's not the first one I have scored and it wont be the last I'm just doing my job.
    Most you got off Jerry was a wave and smile, class act was that fella and he is the record scorer for the 49ers I believe. Now I know a lot of you lot back home don't care for American football but you can't fault his attitude

    Or....Anelka did it in support of the French comedian who he rated/liked.

    They demanded Anelka be dropped tonight, and if he wasn't said that they'd remove their logo from the clubs shirts. Anelka started the game so....?

    It strikes me as being an easy way to get out of a contract to me.

    I think they'd gain more exposure from withdrawing their sponsorship than from keeping the name on the shirt. I also think, considering the owner is Jewish, its the right thing to do.

    is that what all the fuss is about??
    for ****s sake!
    imagine how upset people would be if West Brom would have changed their name?
