Because that's Mourinho's idea of defending a lead i.e. camp inside your own defensive third and let the opposition have the ball. This is the guy we're led to believe is some sort of tactical genius.
Might as well play Azpi RB so he can give Young a much harder game and Ivanovic LB to combat Fellani. It's not as if we'd be losing anything by making them switch sides; they're both black holes offensively.
I love coming in this thread and seeing the picture in the opening post because I was there that day! Paid a fiver to watch the kids batter Wolves I think it was. Good times.
Give Oscar credit for nudging the ball literally a yard into Hazard's path? A pass that any number of players can and do make? I know the bar has been set incredibly low for him but please, have a word with yourself ffs.
Fair play to Cahill, he made a great clearing header today at 0-0. I voted for Hazard simply because even on a relatively quiet day he will make a game winning contribution. An absolute legend in the making.
I used to think the benefit of getting knocked out the Champions League would be longer rests between games and as a result better performances. It hasn't made any difference whatsoever. We play bad with 2 days rest or 7.
