Peace.

I think he will have to turn away from his high line defense, for the moment. I like this tactic, and I like the fact he want us to play this way. But at the moment, we haven't the personnel to allow us to play in such a fashion. Indeed, Bosingwa hasn't any defending ability, and Terry is too slow for that. And to play this way without the right personnel doesn't pardon in a pacy league as the EPL. With a new right back, and the partnership Ivanovic-Luiz (???- Ivanovic - Luiz - Cole) I think we'll be able to play the high defensive line without taking too many risks.

XD In the same topic, we could turn Danni into a defender, since he failed to score and make an easy assist.

^ Yep, I see where your coming from. But, in my honest opinion, the edit bar is too noticable and too ugly. I wouldn't mind an edit bar if it was more discreet.

Yep. Our two center backs should be Luiz-Terry for two reasons : Because we can't keep going with Bosingwa at this spot. He isn't even good enough to make the bench imo. Therefore, Ivanovic has to be our right back. Because Luiz-Terry partnership is way more better than Iva-Terry (I think a pair Ivanovic-Luiz might be better, but since the serbian has to be RB...).

Hum... We can also try to right back, or left back lol.

On a serious note. He might give away stupid foul every now and then, but he is the best defender in our squad at the moment. The only problem, it is how he makes his fouls, indeed they are quite spectacular because of his enthusiams ; while other defender's fouls are "normal", I would say... Hence, people memorize his fouls more than other defenders' fouls, since they are more noticable. But even if he is a bit clumsy, we should be ready to give away one goal because of him every now and then, in purpose to be rock solid 90% of the time. We should be ready to make some sacrifice. That's a bit similar with the stock market, you have to be ready to lose a bit of money to win more afterward.

Come on Tomo, he granted 5 goals to Arsenal today.

So far this season : - 15 games played. - Only 4 clean sheets ; against Stoke, Leverkusen, Fulham and Genk. - 17 goals conceeded. -> So, is Luiz the liability, is he clumsy ? No. The liability is our whole defense. And I still believe he is our best defender.

How typical. United gets a bloody easy team, while we get another premier league team. Though, it would be a good test for the youngster.

That is unpardonable.

What ? Yellow ? Had been Cech, it would have been a red.

Bisingwa...

Captain !!!!!

That was for sure. That's the price for missing such easy goalscoring opportunities.

...

Sturridge isn't in the game.

What's going on, Sturridge ?

Sturridge is poor so far...

And... That's for Frank.

Lampard !!!!!!

If we don't win, Sturridge will be to blame. He should have passed the ball earlier and with more power in his pass.

What the fuck Danni ???!!!

Subs: 46 Jamal Blackman, 34 Ryan Bertrand, 4 David Luiz, 6 Oriol Romeu, 16 Raul Meireles, 15 Florent Malouda, 18 Romelu Lukaku.

Agreed. Arsenal doesn't have strong players. Meireles' strength would have been enough. Plus, the latter man is way more pacy than Mikel, and, imo, it is a quality more important to stop Arsenal's attacks.

This cavemen's club is acting this way, so this affair makes a "scandale" and thus, everybody will forget how they did rob us three points.
