Remy's face lolololol

It's inconcievable imo that some clubs in the Spanish top flight have lower attendances than League One clubs... Having said that though they know how to knock up a midfielder!

Feel sorry for the geezer. Has to play central right back and then when he has to back off because he can't cover so much ground he gets completely slaughtered for it. Yeah, he's not the best centre half Terry has partnered (surely Ricky) but he's not shite either. If Dave played next to him I guarantee he would look so much more solid. Zouma does well there because of his pace and impeccable timing/technique of the tackle, and that'll be the cross on which Cahill will be crucified. And rightly - if Zouma is better in the role he should be played there.

Ahh, but now comes the question of replacement or supplement of/to Fabregas?

I thought he was good against Stoke...

Burnley win or draw. Considering they've done outstandingly well against big teams you could perform daylight robbery with the right stake!

and a wild Barbara appears you coming back?

You seem to have caused quite a stir

lol tbh it's not like he has a position really... he just goes where the space is or where his vision tells him to go.

Also alternatively to Messi Max Meyer of Schalke I'd like to see. If he can play RW with Willian at CAM it would be ideal, but otherwise Willian can stay RW and Meyer in the middle. Seriously, the guy looks exceptional for his age, and with that we can afford Gundogan/Koke, Butland and Varane more easily than with Messi.

Always admired Gundogan. He's a complete midfielder imo. Otherwise see Koke.

Please no. The midfield will be crippled by his lack of pace. 4-4-2 might be good though

I don't have complete confidence in Oscar but all I can say is that our scouts must have been impressed. They know better than me.

I'd like: Courtois /Butland (3rd keeper = Blackman) Azpi Varane Terry (subj to perf) Luis /Iva /Iva /Zouma /Azpi (3rd for back 4 = Ake) Gundogan Matic /Fabregas /MVG/Ake (3rd for DMs: Zouma/Ake) Messi Fabregas Hazard /Cuadrado /Willian /Willian (3rd for CAM/CM: RLC, RW 3rd: Fabregas, LW 3rd: Messi Diego /Remy(maybe Icardi) (3rd for ST: Fabregas, Messi) Only reason Cahill is out is because Iva can play more positions, despite the fact I regard Cahill as a better defender)

I can't bear the gerrard wankfest now, let alone if he wins the FA cup. Fuck that, at least Arse are a southern team.

At least it wasn't a knee injury(ies). They ended Essien's career.

...Unless he gets injured too. He did his groin in when he took a heavy shot, I think. Fingers crossed he holds out.

That's Willian starting in his place next match then... I'd like to see Oscar on the wing and Willian in the middle for once.

Nobody seems to like him round here. Not anymore, anyway...

Good, they're gonna be knackered when we visit us then.

wrong thread

I'm pretty sure just a few months ago Barcelona's board was in crisis talks over the sale of Cesc Fabregas, Messi being angered to the point of being within an inch of handing in a transfer request and following Chelsea on social media, and all the other players angered that nearly every game Enrique would rotate the entire squad. Oh and when he lost 1-0 after the Christmas break while leaving over £500m worth of players on the bench. Never rule out anything, we can afford him.

If he leaves Matic out I fully expect to see Zouma-Ramires...

Butland would be good for 2nd GK, as would Green. Icardi we should only go after if Remy leaves imo, he's not gonna dig being 3rd choice next season.

Crucial a win as any. Risk Cesc, press him up so he doesn't need to tackle as much. Zouma for Matic, once we win against Arsenal I think the title is ours.
