Peace.

For fuck sake. When people will understand that the situation 20 years ago, when Ferguson was appointed, is completly different of the situation of nowadays ? And as TermX has pointed out, stability for the sack of it.. Is just dumb.

Yep, so far he is the greatest manager in football history, no doubt on this. He is a excellent tactician and men manager. That being said, he is still a big cunt.

If Barça puts on the table a certain amount of money (£8m - not sure though) they can negociate with him. After that, everything is up to him. He can agree to go back to spain just as well he can refuse.

For the club sake, I think I would have prefered if he was to come back around March. Because since he is expected to come back in January, that will be the same ol' same ol' "we don't have to look for a player since Essien's return is like a signing".

That's why Ancelotti played Feirrera at LB instead of Van Aaholt.

Ozil.

Hum... He seems to be great at free kick... he might be good at penalty. Meireles hasn't enough shot quality, imo to do this. And don't forget Cole, he is good.

Kalou to take a penalty ? Lmao. To take a penalty, he should first feature in a game.

Okay, i didn't see this that way.

Maybe because Cole isn't a cyborg. He needs to be rested, once in a while.

Corrected ^

Referees are dicks. They should think, sometime, it won't hurt them.

He wasn't that bad, but he neither was good. To be frank, it was a typical performance of a big player playing against a weak opposition, i.e. he was arsed to make something just once in a while. He is right. As much as I think Kalou isn't good, he has actually done a lot more for the club than Torres.... Since the latter man has done fuck all for us, except to make us waste £50m and have the "Torres or Drogba" thing...

True. Once it is Bosingwa-Ivanovic-Terry ; after that it is Ivanovic-Luiz-Terry ; an other day it is Bosingwa-Alex-Luiz ; Next time it is Bosingwa-Ivanovic-Luiz...... It is hard for our defenders to create an understanding between themselves. Furthermore if they have to adapt to a whole new tactic, changing partner everytime won't help them.

Fair point. Though, he has a lot more strenght than it does look and than people give him credit. Beside, it does not excuse Villas-Boas to do not play him against the likes of Genk, Swansea and Norwich.

Neymar has a buy-out clause about 40m english pound. So how on earth Madrid is to spend £53m to buy him ?

Reactions about Luiz taking the penalty are a knee-jerk reaction, in my opinion. Had he scored, everybody would have said how good Luiz' technic is. The fact is that, in the squad we had yesterday, Luiz was the best technical gifted player alongside Anelka. Considering the recent penalty record of the latter man, it made sense that he was the one who took care of the penalty. ps : yeah, the fact that a defender is one of the two most technical players in the team is for the least worrisome.

Do you really think Josh has to make some bodybuilding to play against.... Genk, with no disrespect ?

Yep. He seems to have less speed, pace. I think the amount of time he plays has to do with it.

I bit worried about Cole. He plays too much... Disappointing for Josh. I hope he can get few minutes in the second half.

Thanks.

To be honest, I also tend to want Ryan to play... Til I realize he isn't even in the squad... Yes, He played as a left back, at some time. Though, I understood it wasn't his best position, not at all... (he played there when Porto has smashed Benfica 5-1).

Ahhh, my bad, I didn't even thought a second to Aguero, while researching argentinian players..

There's only one player in the world who would worth that £250k, and that's Messi. Pastore ?

For the umpteenth time, Bertrand isn't included in the CL squad...
