  1. Lukaku was the worst man on the pitch. Slow as a barge, undeservedly scored the tap in.
  2. I don't fancy we would have liked to annoy the emirs after all the hospitality: Pilafs, kebap, shish taouk ... But are Palmeiras any good ? They are supposed to be the best Brazilian team. Back in the days when the intercontinental championship was alive, the likes of Real Madrid of Di Stefano and Pushkas and Eusebio's Benfica had no chance against the South Americans. The South Americans were winning 5-1, 3-0, 6-2 ... The competition died in the early 70s when Man. United players were clobbered over there and also AC Milan (il notte del fuoco). Ajax refused to play and in 1971 Panathinaikos took their place to play against National Montevideo. The results were 2-1 to National and 1-1 so National won the trophy but they also managed to break the leg of one of the Greek players (Tomaras). After that the competion died but now that we are all nice peoples -even Luis Suarez- the emirs brought it back to life. With which European team would you equate Palmeiras ? In my opinion Porto or Sporting Lisbon.
  3. Zouma is clearly pushing the cat with his foot and not kicking it. Obviously he thought it was a game (and the cat probably thought it was a game) so he published the video. The cats don't have memory to remember their masters, like the dogs. If you give milk to a cat she will stay at your house and if you let her out she will come back to the house. But if you leave her at some faraway place and go, it won't make her unhappy - she forgets.
  4. It's only a cat game. He is pushing the cat with his foot, not kicking. But even if you kick a cat like this it does n't hurt - because it's a cat ! If you call this ... terrorising cats you should come to Ikaria in the sumer. Last summer when I want there I could see no cats - very strange. But that was because the holiday makers had not come yet. Then in was again cats all over the place and we had to chase them out of the kitchen. But I 'd like to have a cat because they eat the roaches and roaches are horrible.
  5. He's playing with the cat. It does n't hurt.
  6. I told you, only Norwich are worse than Spurs.
  7. In my opinion only Norwich were below them from the teams that visited the bridge this season. Also Malmo.
  8. Maybe Lukaku is no better than Demba Ba but he needs a playmaker.
  9. We beat them easily in the EFL cup recently so in theory this should present no difficulties. But apart from the issue of the two missing wing backs, this team is tired. Rotation is difficult and what happened to us is really what happens to all the small teams that seem to win the "winter title" and then crash bang. Saw Brentford yesterday, nothing like the lions they were early in the season. Utd had an easy afternoon.
  10. Our attack is static. You thinks Chil and James too were lucky coincidences (to which I do not agree). Then what is the solution ?
  11. Chil does. Against Porto last year for ex.
  12. Ok so you think Chil and James if alive and well today we 'd still have these problems. It's a point of view.
  13. Look we have Ziyech and Alonso who are trying to copy these moves. Ziyech was lucky yesterday to score one but the rest of the time he was losing the ball or losing control and thus delaying the action. As for Alonso he does n't have the penetration he used to have. Other types of move we use can be described as charge of the light brigade.
  14. Chil and James were scoring regularly. It was not chancey like with Christensen and Chalobar when they score sometimes. Unfortunately we lost both for some time and Alonso-Azpi are not as good. Then our attackers are locked in a permanent Lampard wall mode and the "weapon" Lukaku is useless without a Cesc around.
  15. In the cl we beat City while the other teams we beat were good teams but not so great (and RM were undergoing a depression period). Kai is evidenltly not 100% ok after he was infected by the "O". Werner and Ziyetch are dedinitely not Chelsea material. If we had them here in Greece perhaps they would make statues of both in the public squares but the level of football is what matters.
  16. Full price no. But Newcastle paid 33 mil for Hazard (while we think he could n't be of use back in Chelsea).
  17. Kai is definitely tired. I think Ziyetch is preferred because despite his overall predicament he sometimes scores goals, whereas from Werner we 've seen only tap ins. Saul is a midfielder and Tuchel's real problem is up front really. Btw Giorginio was awful. He made two Man United like fluffs that could have costed goals. Lukaku is lonely and useless. He needs somebody like a super Cesc or an Archie Gemmil to make things up for him and we ain't got such. Only way he can score is if one of Azpi's crosses gets through one day.
  18. When we had Hazard even entities like Remy, Bats and Morata were scoring goals. After him there was chaos as far as goal scoring is concerned.
