As far as I know, relocating was always the goal. We had the Battersea Power Station in mind but lost out in that. There have been other pursuits but the pitch owners did not oblige. The redevelopment on Stamford Bridge was merely adding a suite, and I think for 2023 the season ticket prices are going to rise substantially considering the cost of business now along with a stagnation on ticket pricing for several years. Match going fans are going to be upset at the rise in costs but this is all to accommodate to stay at Stamford Bridge, which is what the pitch owners want.

The long term plan is up to the owners of Stamford Bridge, not Roman Abramovich. Roman is fully invested and on board, but nothing can happen unless the pitch owners are on board for relocating. They own the rights to the Chelsea brand, so if the club were to move stadiums without their consent, they couldn't be called Chelsea Football Club. It's a mess.

Don't think any president in the coming years will be a success (be it democrat or republican) until wages match the pace of the growing inflation. This presents issues in itself with the ever increasing debt ceiling. No class fucked harder than the middle class.

Timothee Chalamet, although a good actor, is constantly wanked about as some master of the universe. Movies that are blatantly average are are seemingly rated higher because he is in it.

I think there is enough of an argument to make where we really shouldn't be focusing on building a team around Lukaku given how limited he is as a footballer. Especially at the expense of forfeiting a system that won us the Champions League. This deal was just yet another reminder how those upstairs are lightyears away from having the same footballing sense as you lot and City. We buy players merely on output and name vs whether or not they represent what we want in our football, which presents a problem in itself as the club doesn't even know what they want. I personally hope Atletico come to our rescue for the 4th time ala Kezman, Torres, and Morata.

Going off what I read as well. Their fossilised guts showed only those foods mentioned, and concluded their teeth at the time were far too soft to eat meat as opposed to H.Erectus.
-
Our earliest known ancestor is the Australopithecus Afarensis, who only ate grass, leaves, and fruits. 500,000 years later, Homo Erectus (lol) arrived where it was shown they included meat into their diets.

Lol where do you come off claiming I'm being self righteous when you've downplayed my arguments in such a condescending manner? The cheek . "I studied nutrition at Uni" I'll indulge. Never disputed that. The premise of the argument was which diet is natural to the human body. You don't have to worry about having too many vegetables on your plate. You do have to worry about having too much animal fats and protein on your plate. I'd say appeal to tradition, but that's boring. Humans only started to eat meat due a lack of vegetation, to which science has showed that cooked starches began fueling brain development well before the first humans began to eat meat. Also we've evolved since then and in Western cultures in particular there is zero biological need to continue to consume animal products. Merely a commodity. We didn't. We ate plants and starches well before we started eating meat. We don't. Our digestive system is similar to Frugivores. Human digestive tract spans approximately 10 times the length of their torsos. A natural carnivore or omnivore’s digestive tract spans about 3 times the length of their torsos, allowing for quick digestion with pH levels that can dissolve bones. Carnivores & Omnivores can properly process and digest animal protein, casein, and trans fats. Humans can't because we lack the thyroid hormone true meat eaters have.

Vitamin B12 turns homocysteine into methionine in your body. Didn't realise I had to spell that out for you and didn't take you as one to run from a healthy argument. Since so you are bent up on only me proving data, below are research articles from the National Center for Biotechnology Information undergoing studies and research where it was determined there was no evidence of protein/amino acid deficiency among vegan and vegetarian diets. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC3662288/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC6893534/ https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC8069426/ Here's research from Stanford University comparing Plant and Animal protein and determines that vegan diets provide more than sufficient protein/amino acid needs for daily intake, as well as providing enough for the elderly. https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S2212267218313972 https://sci-hub.tw/https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/31690027 More research showing the metabolic benefits of plant based diets. https://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2021/01/210121132300.htm https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/10687887/ Explain to me the reasoning behind this claim. How are humans "designed" to eat meat, when humans lack the very components to break down low-density lipoproteins? What kind of inductive reasoning is that? Animals such as Carnivores/Omnivores are able to break down lipids because their bodies are structured to. If humans were "designed" to consume meat, as you say, why does it directly result to cardiovascular disease? If an organism is designed to do something, there wouldn't be any repercussions because what they are doing is natural. We aren't fucking designed to smoke cigarettes' are we? If you want more information as to why the human body isn't naturally designed to eat meat, here are references below. Oxford Academia and The University of Oxford presenting research how LDL cholesterol is the main component of cardio vascular disease. https://academic.oup.com/eurheartj/article/38/32/2459/3745109?login=false https://www.ox.ac.uk/news/2021-07-21-red-and-processed-meat-linked-increased-risk-heart-disease-oxford-study-shows#:~:text=Overall%2C the evidence from the,coronary heart disease by 9%.

One diet has potential harmful affects, the other provides long term health benefits. I wonder which one the human race is designed for.

1. We have the same teeth as Frugivores. Since the dawn of time the human race never had canine teeth similar to true Omnivores and Carnivores. 2. Humans are not anatomically Omnivores. I repeat, anatomically. Our bodies do not have the thyroid hormone that prevents our arteries from clogging up. Natural meat eaters have this. 3. The are no essential amino acids found in meat that cannot be found in a vegan diet. Thy myth of Vitamin B12 has been debunked when its been heavily available in soy and now vegan cereals. 4. I go off the basis of what our bodies are designed to do. Our bodies aren't designed to naturally digest meat and dairy the way carnivores and true omnivores can. If this was the case there wouldn't be the cardiovascular disease epidemic within the human race because of high cholesterol depriving from fatty foods.

Club wanted Lukaku for years. Like I said in the Haaland thread. Club made their bed. Time to sleep in it.
-
Think it would be silly from both the club and Salah himself to force himself immediately back. A muscular injury just becoming an inevitability.
-
Sorry, writers. JD Payne and Patrick McKay.

They had to hire sex coaches in the LOTR series so it looks like they are going the GOT route. Also, and this is a bit concerning, the directors of the series best work was fucking Jungle Cruise with the Rock.

He didn't see Frodo until midway through the battle? Then sent the Nazgul after them? Any who, I appreciate TTT and ROTK but the Fellowship of the Ring is the only one I would genuinely call a masterpiece of film.
-
To each their own I suppose.

I was anticipating him to be awful considering some reviews but I thought Affleck was very good.
-
Thought they were both fine personally but I understand the criticism.

So let me get this straight. Arsenal, who have positioned themselves well to be in a Top 4 battle this 2nd half of the season, just paid off the remaining 8 million of Aubameyang's contract and are now relying on only Lacazette and Nketiah up top. They had a paper thin squad already before January, now they are worse off. Well done Edu. United and Spurs thank you.
