  1. Excellent save, but it's what he's paid to do and why he's one of the best.
  2. Schurrle went CAM/CF (or shadow striker).
  3. The opinion that he wasn't a good finisher was a myth because of that stupid clear cut chances stat that went about. He's always been a good finisher, he's just getting the opportunities to show so now.
  4. Urgh. The game is going to be all about this stupid red card now, instead of our brilliant performance. I'm annoyed.
  5. My guy Eto'o. No one can ever tell me Torres is our best striker. No one.
  6. Fantastic line up. Pretty confident now.
  7. It's the Liverpool propaganda/hype machine, ignore it.
  8. Just like we parked the bus against City at Etihad, Bayern in the Super Cup & Liverpool earlier in the season? Get over yourself man. It's going to be a very close game, to me it's a 50/50 game and it's going to be a great challenge to either squads. Stop acting like PSG are some sort of uber superior team Chelsea can't match up against, because we have matched up against better teams this season already.
  9. Not a bad shout if Mou doesn't want to risk a not fully fit Luiz.
  10. I don't mind this, should be a great challenge and if we play to our best in both legs we can beat them for sure.
  11. Yes, that is definitely the right question, MVG shouldn't come into the equation of it. I personally think that if no one experienced/reaching their prime is available then we should perhaps go for someone like Kovacic, who is already Inter's best player IMO.
  12. Van Ginkel is a different type of player to the aforementioned, we need a DLP, it doesn't make sense not sign either ust because they're young and we have Van Ginkel.
  13. His passing ability is like Lampard's, it's pretty good but he's no DLP/regista. B2B player, but technically he's good.
  14. Don't know why you're comparing Kovacic or Rabiot to MVG when they're clearly different types of players. The former two are DLPs/registas whilst Van Ginkel is a B2B midfielder.
  15. Completely different types of players...
  16. Think it'll be a three man midfield of Luiz, Matic & Lamps with Oscar and Hazard flanking Eto'o.
  17. Yes we do need a DLP and he can play as a DLP/regista, he's been used as one before and pretty successfully. That's his true role, just that the Inter manager has been moving him about a lot. Oliver Torres is more of an AM than this fella IMO.
  18. Kovacic - Matic pivot would be wonderful.
  19. That run he did when he skipped past about 4 players and made the last defender sit on his ass, he really should've shot. Way too unselfish.
  20. Tbf, half the moves he broke down were due to him not having any options in front of him. Thought he was alright today.
  21. My MOTM for today, very big reason as to why we controlled the midfield today, tackled well, pressed well, sprayed the ball excellently, made the right decisions at the right time in getting forward into the box (unlucky not to get a goal IMO). Keep it up Frank, this is exactly what I want from him in his performances.
  22. An emperor on the pitch. Julius Cesar.
