rewatched The Departed. clinical adaptation with strokes of Scorsese. very accomplished technically and well adapted to Boston, but still jarring. Hong Kong film tropes just don't work here. it's one film that however Western critics praise, will never be on par with the original. check out Black Mass for a more frightening Irish Mob.

Chelsea vs 2005 Chelsea
16/17: Courtois, Luiz, Cahill, Azpilicueta, Alonso, Moses, Kante, Matic, Hazard, Pedro, Costa
04/05: Cech, Ferreira, Terry, Carvalho, Gallas, Makelele, Tiago, Lampard, Duff, Gudjohnsen, Drogba
Chelsea could win a record 30th game this weekend but i suspect Mourinho's 11 would beat the current crop. Lampard, Drogba and Makelele would neutralise 2017's stars and that defence was simply unbreachable. to Conte's credit, his 3-4-3 would be difficult for any team.
