RLC made Garth Crooks' team of the week, but this was what he had to say about RLC:
"Ruben Loftus-Cheek: This is a lad I thought was better off staying at Crystal Palace on loan, playing every week and continuing his international development as a consequence of playing regularly. However the player decided to return to Chelsea - or more to the point, the club insisted he returned.
Immediately his game time dropped, he lost all the momentum he gained from his time at Palace and he struggled to be the star his performances suggest he might be.
It's time Ruben Loftus-Cheek made some serious decisions about his career at Chelsea. The lad can play, as was clearly evident against Watford.
Did you know? Loftus-Cheek has averaged a goal or assist every 112 minutes in the Premier League this term - only Eden Hazard (94) has a better ratio among Chelsea players."
His clear anti-Chelsea bias is infuriating. On the one hand he says RLC lost all momentum he had from playing with Palace where he should have stayed - and then he goes on to say he has averaged a goal or assist every 112 minutes. So clearly he has been doing really well lately. And no mention of his lack of game time due to injury, or the fact that he is now the clear first team choice when fit. It can't be just me who hates Crooks.
Garth Crooks is a D!ck

As his Dad said, had he been playing under Poch he would have progressed much better. Shame Chelsea haven't developed him as they should have, he could be top class.

Have you tried walking round the headland at Bronte to the right? There's a couple of lovely beaches round there, Tamarama and Bronte.
Much nicer than Bondi IMO and far less crowded..

Yeah been to few parties around there.
Nicest beaches are in Manly for me though in Sydney area.
Best beaches in Australia are in Queensland.

Unless King's Cross has changed since I was there it's a bit of a dive. Definitely right about the best beaches in Sydney being in Manly.
Blarms you been to Noosa beach in Queensland ? Lush.
