  1. You can see just how happy the move to such an amazing club has made T'Boa. Hes sitting just grinding his teeth happy at the thought of being so close to his children! And luckily for him he might have the chance to sit there for awhile as Nevas isn't just going to go away! Makes you feel all warm and happy for him! Thibaut Courtois told by Real Madrid fans to get used to sitting on bench as they praise Keylor Navas The Belgian goalkeeper has still to make his debut after arriving at the club from Chelsea this summer https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/football/news/real-madrid-fans-tell-thibaut-13145440
  2. Who do we want to win tonight? Which would be the better for us? While I would dearly love Manure to get slaughtered I really dont want Spuds to win neither. So I suppose a 0-0 with loads of fights and bookings would be best lol
  3. I think that we are getting bogged down in the middle of the pitch. Both Eden and Kovacic are used to be the ball carriers but for a Sarri team to work proper it revolves around off the ball movements to release those third player runs. And its not as important for Eden to do his long dribbles. Its quicker to do a pass. Both Eden and Kovacic can do the same job but they are going to run into each other specially with Eden and his cutting into the center of the pitch. But because we have been a continuous team that counter attacks and we have relied heavily on Edens dribbling to get past men but when we are having so much posession Edens got to change his game too He has to remember we aren’t a defensive team anymore and play on his left side like he did with Mou’s first half of the season’s 2014/2015.
  4. Maybe now some peeps will realize why Sarri was looking at CBs What have we done to make you even consider us swapping him out for Cahill? That would put evolution back years! What surprises me is why so many of us ARE surprised about his brainfarts. Hes always done exactly the same thing defense wise. He loses all sense of where hes at and loses all sight of the guy hes supposed to be marking. And this is the normal outcome. Hes just what we need going forward but hes going to fuck up like this and the question is can Andreas step up now?
  5. All these 'pundits' and articles comparing him to Pirlo
  6. I'm feeling like I did when Diego and Cescy joined us and the Don changed us to a 3 man back. This isn't just a team changing strategy its a club changing evolution.
  7. Or if we go with her evaluating players strategy it makes us worth @ £3 Bill
  8. And thats after Pep and Klopp have been building and working with their teams now for ages. The longer we keep at it the better we will get all over the pitch. Those numbers will get higher!!
  9. Apparently hes going to carry on with the rebuild!! FFS make yer minds up. He cant be selling the place and rebuild us. Unless of course hes just a really nice chap wanting to do us a favor and that wouldnt keep his money long! Sources pointed out that the Sunday Times has claimed that Abramovich rejected an offer for a minority stake from an American private equity firm called Silver Lake Partners.
  10. I'm totally positive that the wee baldy man will be excellent higher up and have said so often since we bought him. And once the team learn how to press/defend together and get their passes off quicker I personally think that he could be used as a B2B and not just keep him on the right side up top. We know that our defense could be stronger and against teams that are quicker will be causing us a ton of grief. Its in the teams best interest to give them some help when needed. Not to stay there.
  11. I think that MAYBE Eden is just confused. We went thru Mou playing his defend at all cost first policy which absolutley took all of the attackers primal instincts from them then a year of the Don who said come on lets take it to them then a year of hmmm lets think twice before we go for goal. And now we have a manager who says we need to score loads goals because we might let a few in and its the way we are goimg to win I just think he needs to be taking more shots and doesn't always need to dribble into the box or cut inside. But its good just seeing him not moping around with his hands om his hips. Sarris giving him his swag back
  12. I know that once we are defending and pressing as ome and our passing becomes quicker we shall mot look as bad in defense but right now I think the wee baldy man is being used wrong. Up on the right wing most of the time just isn;t working right now. Whether Pedro or Willians there he still didn;t fit.
  13. Thought Edem was taking flying lessons when Gayle cropped him. Must have gone 4 foot in the air!
  14. We weren't playing at dirty bastards at the same time to mate. But it did show the spirit in the lads right now. They have it in them to beat these teams even at this early stage. We have to take the best out of these results
  15. They took lessons from us in the Mou years!
  16. It was obvious they were going to be the neighborhood bully today with their 3 men not playing. And we got it. I dont know whats up with Eden. He seems to have not got the trust in himself to shoot Could have had a handful The teams speed will come with time I'm not worried about that but you cant teach players to be goal hungry not at Edens age. Its time we gave Andreas some time. Was pleased with both strikers for the most part today, It will get easier or my heart will explode! Wheres the tequila!
  17. No Lascelles or Shelvey. This should be a good day out for the lads
  18. I/m only sad not to see CHO in the bench Sarri must see Pedro on for 90mins as Willian will obviously be in for Eden at 70 mins
  19. Does he deserve it or lead the lads? He doesn;t really have the personality to do it.# Needs to put pen to paper!
  20. Our strongest lineup. This SHOULD be fun! t
