Guys, it's a daily round-up we do of newspaper stories and is totally separate from our own news content. We try to make this as clear as possible. The Pochetinno story is from the Sunday Times and nothing to do with us. Cheers.
Haha this is actually true, he doesn't use agents. "Westlondonsport.com"... Can't see you having a biased view on anything... As Christ said above, you are a joke.
Cheap gutter press reporting. Where are the facts ????
Mention the Chavs of Chelski and the notion is there that everything can be bought on blood money..
Poch doesn't have representatives. He does all the negotiating himself. You're an absolute joke
