  1. He will never be anywhere near Messi's level.
  2. We weren't tbh. If it wasnt a goal then it would of been a penalty with Cech going off after his challenge against Garcia.
  3. Not really. His character shows a lot. He lacks grit which ultimately sets him apart from the rest of successful captains. Not to mention he carry's an emotionless aurora around him.
  4. We have absolutely no right to criticize any side parking the bus.
  5. I disagree. Their 2011 squad in some sense was quality and they weren't big game bottlers like this current one is. During that season, they had a chance to take a massive lead in the title race come February but Wenger's stubbornness and injuries cost them yet again. -------------RVP-------------- Nasri-------------------Walcott -------------Cesc---------------- ----Song------------Diaby------
  6. I'd give my left bollock for this to happen, but no where near 200mill.
  7. Duff > Robben Without a shadow of a doubt. Anyone who's watched us pre - 2006 wouldn't hesitate to put Duff ahead of Robben who in all reality is on there merely on name alone.
  8. This. Different leagues being different environments. Mata was quality as a LW at Valencia but outmuscled and excluded with his time with us.
  9. He was LW. Turan was RW
  10. If this club even had a 'main man', it would be Cesc. Everything runs through him.
  11. I find it very odd many people included Robben in their team. I really do.
  12. I would absolutely despise Aguero if I was an Argentine. The lad is bloody world class at club level but absolute wank of the highest order on the national team, even with him taking over Messi's position and Messi having to play a deeper role.
  13. Erm.. In the last 15 years Paolo Maldini was the only footballer to intercept more passes than Claude. And you are seriously undermining Makelele never mind comparing two players who's roles are completely different. But carry on.
  14. Yet Matic couldn't dream of being able to read the game as Claude could. Both are different players with different abilities and we should be blessed we are getting their best out of them whilst they were/are here.
  15. They'll get knocked out the first round anyway
  16. Would be really disappointing if Baker and Ake don't start next CL game.
  17. Was more of a fantasy than an actual hypothetical. And Messi's overall style of play has him as a free flowing attacking midfielder, to a deep play maker, to a striker, and a false 9. The lad could literally adapt anywhere and still produce outstanding performances. We aren't even a club with a 'main man' to be honest as all of our individuals work with one another to benefit the squad. If Messi were to come here, (hypothetically now), we would see him and the team function like the Barca of 2008 and 2010. Playing on the wing whilst the likes of Henry (Costa), Eto'o (Hazard), Xavi, (Cesc) Iniesta (Oscar), Zlatan (Schurrle), etc, big club names who still work well for the team whilst Messi performing his free flowing game.
  18. Didn't George Best say something along the lines that Chopper was the toughest defender he's come up against?
