bluesed and confused

Another one slips away. For free.

Sporting highlights rarely linger in my memory but one that may survive the test of time was Hernan Crespo's last-minute wicked goal against Wigan in the Premiership opener last season.

The Argentine never reached his peak in our beloved blue jersey and looks like he never will. Now that the smileybaby's back in the loving arms of Internazionale, I shed another tear for another transfer gone wrong.

Not so long ago, an UEFA suit called us the enemy of football. Looks like the club is on an expensive mission to prove that he was dead wrong.

Throwing money around like a drunk at an LA stripclub, Chelsea has been busy stuffing the pockets of Jean-Michel Aulas, Adriano Galliani etc. And donating Duff and Crespo, making many wonder if Christmas has kicked in earlier.

Aulas taught the world that taking Chelsea for a ride was kid's play and the soap opera goes on. Andriy Shevchenko is somebody I very much admire... in fact revere. But £30m for somebody aged 30!?!

It looks like the protracted Ashley Cole saga's going to end in similar fashion. I wouldn't be surprised if we make Wenger go nuts by shelling out £25m AND William Gallas for snapping up Tweedy's hubby.

I bet Karl-Heinz Rummenigge is busy cursing cats and dogs for letting Ballack slip away for nothing.

Sheva's creaking limbs may be more than enough to stuff the likes of Watford and Reading and we might win another league title but this utter lack of logic in our business dealings will come back to haunt us someday.
