To be honest all of Cesc's tackles this season have been shit; wouldn't be surprised if he fucked up and mistimed it

That's because it's bollocks.

Quite a good LB then?

Courtois Azpi Zouma Terry Kenedy Cesc Matic Willian Oscar Pedro Costa

If Hiddink gets us winning and brings through some youth I'm happy. I really, really, really, really want RLC, Aina, Kenedy, Ake, Christensen to come through. Got to be Simeone post Hiddink. I hope he brings his scouting network with him too, Atleti would be a fucking powerhouse if they'd kept their players.

I still can't believe we let Vidal slip through our fingers when he was available.

Never say never. I think Fabregas was on the same number before crimbo 2014! Ah yes, but I think what they mean is deep lying. Pundits about this time last year were wondering why Mourinho didn't play Fabregas in an advanced position, as it would seemingly magnify his presence. As we found out, it's because he's fucking shit there because he's not mobile and he can't deal with being pressured like Oscar can (on his day). Obviously Yaya is not the same player but it's not as it sounds.

I know it was "only Norwich (that beat Man U 2-1)", but I was really impressed with the overlapping runs. I was in the Shed that game so first half I could see him defend (near the left corner flag) So confident. I think once he actually rainbow flicked the ball over the attacking winger's head at his own corner flag. Baba hasn't really impressed me tbh. I'm not writing him off but I really think Kenedy has potential, I hope he gets a run there. Also Aina is waiting for a chance and it's rumoured if he doesn't get playing time he may look to leave. A lot of competition for 2 spots. 5 players for those 2 spots. Let's also not forget that Ake will probably come back in the summer (likely an indirect replacement for Ivanovic, who will either get released or become a CB), and between him and Baba Ake will start every time, if we don't Watford will snap our hands off to buy him.

No thanks, he drove me mad and I don't ever remember him posting something positive. Literally I think he actually pumped his fist in the air and went down the pub when we lost and when he was drunk later he could spew his repetitive nonsense.

Well tbh it's not the best thing to say on R4 in the middle of jose's sacking

I was expecting a general booing, rather than singling out of players on Saturday. Hopefully it acts as a final kick up the arse. Costa is improving, nowhere near where he needs to be though. If he can't handle a little stick then maybe he needs to focus on mental rather than physical strength.

That's a wanker sign fella... Would prolonging the inevitable really make it any better? I don't think it's like that mate anyway even if LvG gets sacked after their next match (whatever that is) Mourinho will not take over in tme for our game. At the very most he will watch from the stands.

It's the club's fucking fault for sacking him - what do you expect him to do, go and manage Walsall so we never hear of him again? Not one of the world's top 3.

yeah, I was expecting him never to get a managerial job ever again too, what a bastard

Oh, sorry. I could've sworn I've read Ligue 2 before. Even so, he's not better than Cahill, Terry, Zouma or Matic so he doesn't play.

He was signed from Ligue 2. I'm surprised he's not been loaned.

He will have to; he has a playing contract with Impact to fulfill.

Ake?

Sorry, no, using the term Nazi is provocative, it's automatically negative connotations and much less offensive examples can be used, and usually used to guilt people into packing in their argument so they do't get labelled or grouped to bad things.

The type of football that Leicester are playing and walking the league with is counterattacking 4-4-2 football with ortho fullbacks. Watford who are encroaching on the CL places do the same. The traditional big clubs in the Prem are doing possession based football but it seems an unsustainable way to play, neither Arsenal or City in recent seasons have kept up their title challenges in recent years; Barcelona can do it because they're all in and have so many quality technical players that they can do like for like substitutions when their 11 is knackered, a winter break and a slower, less challenge tolerating league. Even their centre halves can probably dribble better than Diego Costa and many of his counterparts. Possession based football can mean many things. Man Utd play possession football...with their back 4.

The balance is swinging back towards traditional 4-4-2, counterattacking football - tiki taka is reaching its life expiry very quickly. I want Simeone.By he way if we replace Jose Mourinho with Pelligrini I will find Emenalo and break his face, utter madness.

Ah yes; Summer 2015, when people began to think they knew what Jose wanted more than Jose did.

Nice one! Just what a fragile club needs; support from legends.

Not a fan of there anymore... last time I went in there with my dad this ginger prick behind told me to sit down and stop singing and my dad got sent out for having a fag at the back!

Don'tt participate then? we still sing all the general songs...
