  1. He's had a lot more bad games in 2015 than good, not even arguable.
  2. Wouldn't put Sturridge in the same boat at all because he did perform here consistently when he was given a chance.
  3. Won't get any sort of media coverage, I'm sure. SSN won't be on it, BBC won't be. David Cameron surely won't make any comments.
  4. Go check his net spent at Inter and tell me he had funds there.
  5. "He's nothing like Willian" they said. "You obviously haven't watched him for Fiorentina at all if you think that" they said. Honestly wasn't happy about this signing but still, have to support and hope he comes good. As I said before as well - it'll take him some time to adapt to the PL but I automatically got shot down for being a naysayer for that as well. I do actually believe he could possibly be a valuable squad member in time but we'll have to be patient. I don't think he'll ever fully secure that RW spot ala Hazard on the left though.
  6. I'll never understand why people have short term memory like this. Before the last 4/5 games or so Oscar was playing all the time. You can't tell me someone who has clocked around 2000 minutes already this season isn't getting consistent playing time.
  7. Why should I? IF you're going to air your views on a forum, anyone can reply to it. There isn't some rule against it. I've read what you've said. Nothing wrong with saying EL is Mo's level currently, that's my point. It really isn't an insult to him because there are players better than him that play EL football.
  8. How do they? Spurs are in form, United aren't easy to beat... I'd say our run in is even slightly easier. Old Trafford away is a toughie. Spurs away is a toughie. Southampton and West Ham at home, Crystal Palace and Swansea away aren't exactly easy games either for them. Their run in is not easy.
  9. How's that an insult? Plenty of good players in the Europa League. To say Salah is much better than all of them? Must be kidding right?
  10. I'm not going to take Wikipedia or WAGNH over BBC, The Telegraph, Reuters, The Guardian etc.
  11. Please, Oscar has clocked nearly 2000 minutes this season, he's played regularly enough.The Mo Salah analogy is poor, I doubt Salah even got 2000 minutes in his whole CFC career.
  12. Almost every single source has it that we paid £25m for Oscar.Question for you. When we bought Oscar, what expectations did you have for him? Because many viewed him alongside with Hazard as our future stars. He isn't looking like he'll ever be as important as Eden to us though.
  13. Glad I wasn't the only one that commended his second half performance.
  14. It's so good seeing Jose this happy again.
  15. We didn't have the right players to go out there and dominate (No Matic, not even Mikel). I'm all for entertaining football but I can't blame Jose for being a bit more cautious on this one, especially considering we shipped 5 against this mid table team last time we did try to assert ourselves in the game. Besides, are you not entertained at all by the fact that we've won our first trophy in 2 years?
  16. Was very good defensively yesterday, must be said.
  17. Wasn't a pivot, more like an anchor in a midfield 3.
  18. I thought Cesc was really good today. Obviously restricted by our approach but still put himself about very well and his passing game was a joy to watch. He was great. MOTM has to go to either him, Azpi or JT for me.
  19. He was actually one of our best players today.
  20. That's like saying, "I like the thought of Courtois as a striker as long as he doesn't try to catch balls or prevent the opposition from scoring".
