Fantastic compilation on his performance against Man City! Some of the tackles he made just takes any fan's breath away!!

Frank Lampard on David Luiz:

"I can only be pleased we've got him, because he would be ideal for the Arsenal. I mean, he can play anywhere, he's absolutely fantastic. And you know what, more than how he's playing, he's got such a lovely attitude about him. He's carefree, he plays with a smile on his face.

I think he's almost learned the English language in three weeks because he's such a confident boy, you know, he's not fearful of anything.

With David Luiz, you could see a look in his eye and a smile on his face the minute he walked through the door. We were having a funny time when him and Fernando turned up, and to get a striker like Torres and then this player coming, we didn't know much about him to be honest. To see the confidence and the ability he's got, it was a breath of fresh air. So he's going to be a fantastic player for a long time for us."

Lmao at Frank mentioning Arsenal, mind games already it seems.

When Luiz learns English, we'll see a much more togetherness about this squad, that's for sure!

Yeah exactly! Communication is key, so he will get a lot better with us once he starts talking English!

Mind you Robert Pires had trouble speaking English while he played for Arsenal, yet he's an Arsenal legend

True, but Luiz is 23, so he has plenty of time

Very true! The point I'm making though, is that you don't have to speak perfectly good English to do exeedingly well in a side. If he has other players around him who can speak his native language then that's a bonus. Pires had loads of French players playing alongside him at Arsenal. Henry and Viera to name a couple.

True! Not to mention his manager haha. But that's why Ferreira is a more than useful asset to the club

in fairness, most didn't know about Luiz till now.

Just realised I voted for Cahill, lmao. Although his potential price tag, and the fact he would have counted as 'home-grown' were the deciding factors.

i remember some calling me a stupid moron because i said luiz is better than alex and ivanovic back then .

[Badboy 1,526]

All the people who voted for Cahill instead of Luiz should be ashamed of themselves.

[BlueLion. 21,491]

Easy to say that in hindsight.

No-one knew we would get him for £21 million. The price quoted was closer to £30-40 million.

It was in a period of low cost targets though, nobody knew Roman would splash the cash again, well.. not like that anyway.

[Chelsea Zone 1]

Ok I love Roman over this! I thought David Luiz was just going to be a good cover up for us and our future defender. But when he came and played these 5 matches he is a legend a new legend. This guy scored the 2 most important goals against the two Manchesters! What do you want better than that from a new defender. On top of that he said you did not see the David Luiz yet as he will still perform as amazing as possible.

What a loved star! Can not wait him to see against Stoke City tomorrow if he hopefully plays.

Check this David Luiz video out I made it because I really wanted to show people how this guy is the future best defender in the world. I wanted to share this with you http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cLSxhMJTB_g
