  1. Can't believe Di Santo's had 2 caps for Argentina?
  2. If Marin leaves, Isco signing would be good. KDB will not play in the attacking three IMO. He's being streamlined to play as the distributor in the pivot - so no problem there. Basically we'd have Isco, Mata, Hazard, Oscar, Moses for the attacking three with KDB as back up as he is able to play there and for the pivot we'd have something like Mikel, KDB, Lampard (hopefully), Ramires with Luiz and Oscar also being able to play there. That's the way I'd manage the team anyway.
  3. @WhoScored: Chelsea vs Wigan: Chelsea have won only 3 of their last 9 PL games against teams currently in the bottom half of the table Guess how many of the non wins were under Benitez? Poor.
  4. Fellaini tells CFC to come sign him. http://www1.skysports.com/football/news/11668/8482929/?utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter
  5. Really do not understand his loan deal.
  6. It's not even that. It's just that he plays a different role for Nigeria - at CFC he's instructed to play the way he does here.
  7. Yeah, definitely the Man City trio of Aguero, Silva and Toure. Imagine if we had those three. Also Modric.
  8. No I wasn't jumping down your throat mate, I was on about the guy who said Oscar is the new Kalou sorry if you thought I did!
  9. A bit unfair?! Absolutely ludicrous statement to make in the first place. Kalou was never as naturally talented as Oscar is right now. Oscar needs a manager that'll develop him properly. He will turn into a beast of a player that way.
  10. Wouldn't mind either. Both would be indefinitely better than Tubby.
  11. Terry and Luiz were better under RDM this season.
  12. He always could but the way Chelsea use him does not allow him to utilise his full passing range.
  13. Balotelli with the winner! Brilliant, he's going to be a star at Milan.
  14. I think Hutcho's been good this month, tbh everyone on the list are consistently good posters. Muzchap hasn't won it before (I think) so I'll be voting for him just for that reason!
  15. Nothing wrong with drifting out wide at all IMO. Doesn't mean you're a winger. 1) It allows and creates space for the likes of Suarez and Gerrard who are lethal around the box. 2) It's a trademark move of a famous Arsenal legend. Didn't make him any less of a striker!
  16. Ghana - Nigeria in the final hopefully. Should be fantastic.
  17. I feel we bought Oscar after Porto priced us out of a move for Hulk. I think the initial plan for the season was for us to have Torres Hazard - Mata - Hulk As the front four but that obviously didn't happen. That's why we pursued Moses and Oscar instead - I think the plan is to move Oscar into the pivot later on in his development though.
  18. He did. Suarez played behind him, with Gerrard in the middle alongside Lucas. He was Liverpool's furthest man up. Moving into channels is just part of his game.
  19. He's never been quick or agile. This isn't something new, it's one of Terry's few limitations as a player, everyone knows that.
  20. Liability? This is the first game he's played 90 minutes in for months. Are you completely forgetting that we were at our best defensively this season when JT was playing week in week out? Disgusting how club legends get treated on here.
