i know he is not as good as alexis sanchez , but the lad has got bags of potential ... i haven't watch the Touluse game , and i have only watched him for full 90 min. once but then again i have watched his videos on youtube against liverpool and many others where it shows all of his touches not only good ones . from what i have seen he can easily turn out to be a great Central Wingeras he likes to drift inside, what i like most about him is that he is not selfish at all , and his passing is superb also his 1st touch is very impressive . and that is exactly why i think he should be our 2nd winger , he is a great winger who is skillful and pacy as well as Sanchez but he is so different in his game , he likes to pass the ball around more than sanchez who likes to play the killer pass or prefers to take on defenders, you can't have 2 wingers who like to take on defenders and score goals like sanchez , the team can cope with only one selfish player other than the striker but no more or else you will be facing a team work problem like what we are having now with torres , malouda , anelka , Drogba and kalou . i am not saying all of them are selfish but that is what their game evolves around , they always look to shoot or go for the goal if not then they try to find another player who can score and play him the killer pass . they don't have the patience and ability to pass the ball around untill they find a gap in the oppositions defense .

Seriously guys , what does luiz need to do to prove that he is on another level than alex and ivanovic ??? he was MOTM in most of the games he started !!! and correct me if i am wrong but against teams who parks the bus and uses counter attacks , you need your defenders to be ball playing defenders who can support the attack when you need them , and you need a defender who has pace to not be caught on the counter specially with fast and agile players like teves , balotelli and silva . i think this is exactly the kind of games when you need a LUIZ defender .(Remember when Man utd parked the bus at the bridge )

Sturridge has a great chance to win all the chelsea fans this weekend .

let's just imagine this : (Quarter-finals) Chelsea vs Shalka >>>> Chelsea Tottenham vs Shakhtar >>>>Tottenham Man utd vs inter >>>>>Man utd Barca vs Real >>>> Barca (semi-finals) Man utd vs Barca >>>> Man utd (can't see this one happening , not even in my dreams ) Chelsea vs Totenham >> Chelsea FINAL: Chelsea vs Manutd (or) Barca >>>> Chelsea (since it's gonna be in our favorite stadium) ah oh wait ....!!! WHO ARE WE KIDDING !! WE ARE FACING REAL OR BARCA .

any good stream ??

we can all see that and we all know how vital it is for torres to score his 1st goal but carlo doesn't think 1st goal is much needed , it usually takes carlo some time before he realizes things like that . remember when we all were crying for carlo to change his tactics and starting 11 during our "bad moment" , it took carlo around 4 months to know that he should revert to 4-4-2 formation and use different players . so i guess in 3 or 4 months carlo will get how important it is for torres to score his 1st goal

what a great move carlo , let's keep live harder for torres to score his 1st goal ...!!! carlo's tactics - Pathetic .

finally some info i found about him : "Piazon can be deployed in various attacking positions. He is comfortable playing as a striker but can also slot into just about any position across the offensive midfield. His preferred position, and the one where is arguably most dangerous, is right behind the strikers, where he has got the space to weave his magic, a la Kaka. In fact, he has been compared with Kaka due to several similarities with the Brazil star, in that they both started at Sao Paulo and can be likened in their style of play. Piazon possesses tremendous ball control, dribbling ability, creativity and flair to make for an explosive attacking player with a bag of tricks to bamboozle opposition defenders."

More info ?? what is his greatest strengths ?? is he worth 12 millions ??

am i the only one who is not interested in the price but for the player's abilities and skills !!! i know nothing about lucas paizon and i would like to get some idea about our new boy

if we are looking to buy 2 wingers then Alexis Sanchez and Eden Hazard will be my choice . i have just finished watched the full marsielle vs lille game . and this eden hazard has really impressed me , this 20 years old boy has got bags of potential , his 1st touch is superb , his passing game is Barcelona's level !! he has some good pace and his ball control and dribbling is very impressive . i have only watched him once in a full match but then i followed some videos of him on youtube , not those compilations that can make any player looks like messi , but i have actually watched videos for his games vs liverpool , germany ,sporting and others . those videos show all of his touches in those games (good ones & bad ones). and i can tell you he looks like a great deal . go and check him out .

the main problem with carlo is that he is not utilizing the abilities of his players , and that is because he is playing them based on how he would like his team to look like , not how they can actually play !!. (in other words he is not playing on his players strengths but he is actually trying to force them to play the way he thinks his players should play .) it was mentioned a lot that he likes to set Drogba , malouda , anelka and kalou free , and just let them be creative .... imo that is not the way those very functional players should be used ... they lack creativity , so they need to have some game plans , they need to be told what to do once they get the ball and that is why we were very successful with mourinho . well , i can't argue against the fact that carlo has disappointed all of us this season and may i say last season for me ... but as long as there is no better coach to replace him , then he should stay . Mourinho has been linked with a return to chelsea since the day he was shown the exit door and when an arrogant man is shown the boot he will never return , and hiddink has stressed many time that he won't be back again . so may be on the long run , if carlo gets the time and the support/players he needs , he will be able to get his players to actually play the way he likes.

i would definitely choose aguero over neymar and here are my reasons : 1- both are still young and there best years are still to come , but for aguero i think it will be the next 4 or 5 years as his peak but with neymar he will need at least 2 years to be ready for EPL , i mean the boy is so skinny that he will have no chance of outplaying a player as Samba for instance . 2- Aguero's work rate is much better than neymar's , neymar looks like most Brazilians who one day will be brilliant and the other will just sulk . 3-Aguero has always impressed in big matches against barca , real and chelsea he had superb games and has scored against all of them more than once. 4- Neymar seems to be too proud of himself , and he is definitely a trouble guy .. while aguero on the other hand a more hard worker who will not get into troubles. 5- Aguero knows actually that football is a team game , unlike neymar who seems to like to dribble against 7 oppositions players and then shoot , well that is not gonna happen in EPL. More importantly we need some attacking flair now , not someone who we will try to develop and make him better.

we have played our best football in a 4-3-3 formation , but that formation relies heavily on our ACM (Lamps) .... and we have to be honest , lamps is not the same ... he is still the best attacking CM in the world but he is not the same player he once was ..... so if we are to play 4-3-3 again then hamsik is needed , a midfield trio of essien , lamps and hamsik will be needed . if so then we need 2 proper wingers as you have said and hamsik , in that case i guess Alexis Sanchez just picks himself as one of the two but who should be the other winger , and will roman be willing to pay for 3 top class players?

they can all feel free to leave , except essien who doesn't look that close to DD as kalou and malouda .... but for kalou , malouda , anelka , they are all very average players right now and i hope they leave this summer with Drogba.

Well , i know this will sound crazy but i have been fantasizing about it for a while now ..... what would you think about this : in the summer : Buy : Alexis Sanchez - 27 millions Sergio Aguero - 40 millions Total - 67 millions Sell : Didier Drogba - 12 millions ( i know he is old but he is worth that much.) Salamon Kalou - 14 millions (that is actually his estimated value) Flourent Malouda - 10 millions Nicolas Anelka - 8 millions Total - 44 millions so that is actually gonna cost (23 millions ) which can easily be won back by good Marketing , also keep in mind that there is a huge difference between the salaries to our favor . if that is to take place next summer , then our team will be : 4-4-2 ....................................cech........................................... iva/bos.......luiz/alex/iva....terry/alex/iva.....cole/PVA/zhirkov ..............Essien/Mikel/Ramires.................................... ......................................Lamps/Essien/Ramires........

i am 100% sure that united will lose at least 7 points . and 100% sure that arsenal will lose 8 points or more. but i am 100% sure as well that chelsea will lose at least 3 points , which means we won't be able to catch Man utd .

i would have understood what this all is about if torres 29 or older but for fuck sake he is 26 and this next 3 years are supposed to be his best . so just wait , watch and then criticize . i can understand why some people like henrique are all over torres's back , specially after the blackpool game as he was woeful in that game but against united he was great , even if he didn't score but he looked sharp and lethal . and IMO it's not just a coincidence that his worst 2 games were against liverpool and blackpool , where he partnered Drogba . so let's just analyze why torres is not at his best ? 1- El nino has always had better games with liverpool than with spain and that is mainly due to he fact that he is at his best as a lone striker and not with another striker. 2- if torres has to play alongside another striker , then it should be a SS not another CF .... that is why his better games were with anelka and his worst with Drogba . 3- either he is getting ignored by some players (malouda - Drogba - kalou ). or those players have completely forgotten how to pass the ball to a team-mate . 4- you can watch Torres's games with liverpool and spain , you will know that he is the kinda of striker that will keep making smart moves , getting the attention of defenders without actually participating in game play , leading to a teammate goal ... or he gets 2 or 3 chances in the game and he buries those chances but the problem here is that he doesn't get the needed service because we only have one player who can actually play a decent through pass (Lampard ) and he is not at his best atm.. with liverpool (Benayoun - gerrard - Alonso) have always provided torres with some killer passes . i am not too worried about the fact that he hasn't scored yet , i would have worried if he didn't play that good against Man Utd . and i will be worried if he is still no looking part of the team within the next 5 games .

Man city's Defense has real problems with high balls , and attacks from the wing .. that is why we always struggle against them and why Man utd has always got the better of them . we lacked width , and we lacked pace against them in previous matches but i hope this time it won't be the same .. yes , we still lack some width but we definitely look better and with ramires , essien , luiz and torres we have pacy players all over the pitch i think luiz will give tevez a real hard time .

i have never doubted our midfielders ability , we have the best DMs in essien and mikel , a great RCM in ramires and the greatest goalscoring midfielder of all times in Lamps ... yes we lack some creativity but that is due to the fact that we have shitty wingers in Malouda - Kalou - zhirkov - anelka . wingers are supposed to be pacy , tricky , creative with great ball control .... not one of them falls in to that category .and that is exactly why we lack creativity in our game . give a look around and you'll find that only barca has a better midfield . although i think we should get hamsik because Lamps is starting to look older and this man is his perfect replacement .

you are so dump if you don't think he could ve just rolled himself outside the pitch , instead of playing everyone inside . give a look at nani's worse injury and you will know that when a player needs to lift himself up for a couple of seconds , he will , even if he is injured . that is apart from the fact that he cried like a divorced woman but he stood up to the referee a couple of seconds and then went back to ground .and his injury was actually harder than Drogba's .. and that was just an example of the whole Drogba attitude , he thinks the world of football is revolving around him and that is his main problem , he must know that he is just one of eleven world-class players. anyway you are not worth the discussion because you think you are a smartass who knows every thing and proves others wrong by calling them idiots while actually he is the only idiot .

what about the fact that he lost us possession numerous times in the 1st half , and that torres has been making great moves in the 1st half for him but Drogba passed the ball to the opposition or went for personal glory . and what about the fact that u will never see terry falling on the ground in his own box even if he was dying in pain , because he will think about how that reflects on the team and how he is playing the opponents onside .. but Drogba doesn't care because he is just a drama queen . i loved Drogba's time here , he was always 1 of my favorite players but with torres now here, i think it's time for us part ways . if we can get 15 millions + for DD i will take them now

well , i think the Drogba and torres partnership should be just like the diamond formation , forbidden ... torres's worst 2 performances were against liverpool and blackpool , both when partnered Drogba ... whil his best two games where united and copenhagen when he partnered anelka .... that says it all . bosingwa , have fun playing the likes of blackpool because i know you will never start a game against bigger teams with your display . Drogba was abysmal .... i don't recall him making one good move/touch . zhirkov for me was not that bad as i don't expect him to be gareth bale , he was no at his best but i think he was just average . David luiz , let's just say you have had better games . Lamps and essien are back , they were great also lamps looks a little bit heavy but we missed his goals as much as we missed essien's power and drive from midfield . terry ... i love it when you score , and he is the heart , the soul and the captain of CFC

come on , help yourself out ...

Manchester united , because i hate them .... if we are not to win the league then let it be man-utd , it will cover a lot of weakness points in their squad and they might think they won't need to strengthen their squad . i hope they will stay the same team without adding a Decent CM because that will really make a difference to the united team .
