  1. No, they alternated. Lamps was B2B at times, so was Ramires. It wasn't as bad as you remember. Sure, they were awful some games but there were games where they played well. He can do a job there. If he does play there have faith.
  2. Ramires in the pivot as the destroyer is risky, but nowhere near as bad as some are trying to make it out to be on here. Remember the days of the Lampard - Ramires pivot? He's played okay there before. He can do a job.
  3. Who in what world calls Emre Can world class? He barely even starts for Liverpool. He's only been getting game time recently because Gerrard, Lucas and Henderson are injured. Posts like these are highly inaccurate and annoying.
  4. Kondogbia correct? Brilliant talent. Would be a great squad player here, also great back up to Matic.
  5. I'm trying to say, when Fabregas plays at his best - that's when we're truly an amazing team to watch. Not that when we play well he plays well.
  6. That's weird. Because we've played our best this season when Fabregas has had outstanding games. Games where he fully controls the match is where we've been at our best. It's not his fault that our manager sets up the team in a way where his best skills aren't utilised.
  7. This is absurd sorry. How does that prove the myth? He's not played a lot since Xmas, he's missed 1/3 of our games due to injury. Of course he's not going to be in top top form.
  8. Biggest and most important game of his CFC career might be up.
  9. Because Cesc and Oscar won't cost us £60-£70m each like Koke and Pogba would.
  10. If we're appealing that means he could be available for the COC final correct?
  11. He qualifies through paternal ancestory I think. His dad is Nigerian.
  12. Pogba Varane - Zouma. Strong French spine. Would love that here.
  13. I can't even fault Jose much this season, my main gripe with him was how we used to play so cowardly against the lower sides and we've pretty much rectified that this season, we've been great against the smaller teams. This season it doesn't seem to be working against the bigger teams as well as it did last season but the results have not been disastrous exactly. I agree that we could work on our play in the final third against bigger sides but the evolution of the team is coming along very nicely IMO.
  14. I'm not expecting him to be a creative genius because he isn't. His best attributes do suit that CFC number 10 role nicely though.
  15. It's okay when we have one very proactive defender (Zouma) playing. JT's positional play is world class, he can act as a sweeper/cover. It's a problem when we have two defenders that cover (Cahill and Terry). JT is smart enough to accommodate the high line as long as he has the right partner.
  16. He needs to play in the middle.
  17. This isn't true, sorry. Loads of people have massive short term memory here. Before his ban, Diego's link up and hold up play was excellent. He's just getting back into the swing of things, give him some time...
  18. Gotze looks like a video game character.
