  1. Playing Torres would be stupid I think.
  2. Very happy with the goal, well done Terry so far, but it changes nothing If he is still defending bad.
  3. I would never ever put Kalou on the team, even if we were in a crises like we are now, I wouldn't do it. He will only make things worse.
  4. JT is not getting the blame because he's old, and Luiz was our best player in defence against Liverpool. Terry couldn't tackle, pass or handle the pressure, he had a bad game, Luiz did well and he doesn't deserve punishment.
  5. Unfortunately Josh won't get a game at all, because we don't play young players it's against the Chelsea rules. And i don't mean John Terry will be playing a full game, i usually always mention David Luiz to come on in half time, let them have a half each, but forgot too!.
  6. For some strange reason, i just feel we will win this one, yes our defence is dog shite, but i think we can pull it off.
  7. Gary Cahill is a big risk, but he's quite cheap isn't he?, mayaswell go for it, he's not worldclass Cahill but he's a good defender.
  8. I want to say thank you to everyone, great debate going here and good points about it. I thought i would be into arguements but many have surprised me. It's obvious what we need is drive in the midfield, and we have to accept players like Lampard will not make our midfield world class. The only way Lampard could play in our midfield and for it to be world class in my opinion, he would be playing as he used to, centre attacking basically, roaming behind the defenders making his sneaky runs, and there would have to be a very good DM, with a lot of drive and an engine in midfield, also Ramires would have to be putting in top games like he does now and again, but be more consistent.
  9. To be honest he hasnt had a mention because of all the bad stuff what went on. I agree he played well, his tackling was good for once and his passing was good too, he has the ability to move the game forward, but he can't do it by himself.
  10. He is past it, he can't play highline defending. He will never fit in the system. However AVB will probably get sacked and then some other manager will come in and Terry will probably just fit in that.
  11. Cech Bosingwa-Alex-Terry-Ferriera Meireles-Romeu-McEachran Sturridge-Torres-Anelka Can see us winning this one 2-1.
  12. It's scary the fact Spurs are level with us and have two games in hand, i'm being completely honest here, but i think it will be impossible for us to reach champions league football this season. Because i know we wont do anything in January, we will probably end up finishing 5th, 6th if it goes really bad.
  13. I don't give a shit if we get banned from the CL, money needs to be spent!.
  14. We've got great additions coming in to replace players too, such as Nathaniel Chalobah for Terry might take a while but i think he can be a future Chelsea centre back, and McEachran for Lampard, McEachran is a different midfielder however.
  15. Brilliant post!, infact i wish you did create the thread instead of me, because that was a much better explanation. I agree we lack keyplayers, but we lack keyplayers that create, for example wingers and midfielders who create, we might just have the strikers, such as in Torres but i'm not sure. and of course if we are to play the new system John Terry must be replaced, he cannot play there. But yes brilliant post, i'm happy people have took a liking to my thread, i thought i would be getting slated for my words against the squad.
  16. False!, it's not a fact that the players aren't doing it, it's the fact they can't, many of them are too slow, Mikel is not a fast DM, Terry isn't fast, we have no playmaker, or no wingers. AVB has to do what's best for the club and change his style now!, which ever is best for the players, holdout till January, then sort it out.
  17. People may think i'm very selfish asking for all these players, but you need to be realistic, it's evident we need these new players. But it's also evident we should of had them seasons ago when we were building a team so we can still apply them to teh same 'chemistry' (jesus im overusing this world lately). I think a overhaul will have to happen, we can't keep going on liket his and expect us to win trophies and be title contenders.
  18. Sometimes we need to be realistic, it seems to be only few are concerned about these losses, and when i mean concerned i mean very concerned, were ruining our reputation, and we also ruined the chance to be title contenders this season, this will be another pointless season. And it could also be another AVB sacking, and then another manager comes in and probably makes the same mistake of buying no players. And then that manager wants to play his chemistry and way of football, and then he gets sacked. And yeah you know the cycle.
  19. I agree, i also think he's unfit for a 4-3-3 formation, i would play meireles there for now.
  20. Bertrand has experience, i don't know why we arent playing him, AVB acts like we have no other left backs, playing cole for 90 minutes 2 times a week.
  21. Okay i am sorry for any of my stupid comments lately, i am angry and i think we could agree it's understandable. Now AVB, Grame Souness has just said it, that AVB hasn't got the players for the football he wants to play, but i think we all knew that. But lets have a look at the team... Cech-Hasn't had the best of games in my opinion, but i don't blame him, because he must have lost some confidence with his defence at the moment, however i don't think he needs a change. Ivanovic/Bosingwa-Ivanovic is a good defender and one we should keep definitely i have no problems about him, Bosingwa isn't as bad as people go on about, he's a good player, with good pace, and his crossing is fifty fifty, they can be great or terrible, but at least he adds something. My only concern with him is the fact he's stupid, i think he's very unintelligent, he runs offside a lot, not the best at marking or keeping onside, he has some games where he's good at jockeying but to inconsistent at it, he's a good tackler. But i think we need a replacement for him and get ourself a fresh new rightwing back and add a bit more option and a reliable option. David Luiz/Alex-Alex is a brilliant defender when he's in form, this season he's been very bad, great in stoke game, good in blackburn game besides the exposure by Yakubu, however he's meant to be our strong defender and he's doing a mertesacker, acting like hes a yorkshire terrior, he got too easily pushed over by Shane Long, when he was chasing him on the ball, and the Yakubu thing was very poor when he was going to win the ball. As for David Luiz, forget about what people said in that game, i thought he was very good, i don't know what Neville was on about when he was stupid dribbling through them players, he had no options and could barely clear the ball. Still i thought he was solid. Terry-For me i might get slated here but i think he's becoming a huge worry in our back 4, i don't think he's put a solid game in since the Bolton match, it could be that he's off form, because he's showing it with his terrible passing, but also his decision making has been awful. He's been going into tackles and not winning one of them, he made a vital interception just before Johnson scored that goal, but that's the only moment what impressed me. Cole-Ashley Cole for me has always been overrated, i think he's a good player, but i've always seen him as overrated. And even now he has been pretty poor this season, his passing was good in todays game, but his defending has been quite worrying if you ask me, however he definitely needs a rest and we should start playing Bertrand more!. Mikel/Romeu-Mikel is a good player, but i really don't know what to do with him... he's slowing our team down and it's evident, he maybe too safe but i think we have to take risks now, i take back what i said about Mikel's safety is for the best, because it isn't. He also lacks pace, i think Romeu should start playing because he has pace, unfortunately, Romeu is young and we should be careful with his developement. So yes i don't think Mikel will ever work in that 4-3-3 formation. Ramires/Meireles-Good squad players, but neither are world class, could Ramires end up world class?, who knows, i think Ramires needs to play in a better team, i think that will help him get better and show signs. Lampard-He's a legend, and please don't think i'm disrepsectful, but he's holding the team back, he had a good game yes, but we need a better player, we need more confidence, Lampard isn't consistent enough or good enough for us to be considered world class in midfield, perhaps if we got a world class DM with a lot of drive and vision Lampard could go back to making a lot of runs and his sneaky movement outside the box, but as for now Lampard needs to be replaced with a creative player. Mata/Malouda-Malouda is deadwood, he needs to go, the sooner the better, we should replace him with a fresh new player, someone like De Bruyne, yes he had a decent game today but don't let it fool you, he is very inconsistent and he isn't back to his form. Good game or not i think he has to go. As for Mata, probably the only world class player in our squad, or who can be considered world class. I don't think i need to go on about Mata, we've all seen him. Drogba/Torres-Torres, i don't know, i really don't. Will he play good if we get a better team?, or is he finished?. It's our gamble, as for now i don't want him playing anymore games till we get a better team, Drogba is a great technical player who comes and helps out, good work rate, really impressed today he came back and helped, glad he got chosen over Torres, but Drogba is another one who has to go, i would keep him, but i can't see him sitting on the bench and playing the odd game a season, he will want football elsewere, and it's understandable. Anelka/Sturridge-This side is lacking options, i personally think we should buy a new player for this position, Anelka is a great squad player, i hope he stays, he's a good benchman and can offer a lot, Sturridge i really don't get, he's got a lot of determination but i don't think he can stick to that position, i think a new player is needed there. Now what i think of it, we need to stop playing highline defending, and as Graeme Souness said, AVB should ask the players if he's asking them for too much, because i think he is. We should start over again and hold out till we can buy new players, i think we need two wingers, not starting wingers, a new fresh player like De Bruyne who offers options and pace and some magic in the game, and a very good rightwinger a starting one, i don't know who. A playmaker surely, in Lampards position, a DM might be needed if we are playing this new system, if Romeu can fit in it and play well, then fair enough. And i might get blasted here, but if were to play this new AVB's method, we need a new centre back in replacement for Terry, Terry will never be able to play in that formation, it wont work. I think we lack world class players, and because we've just left the same old squad for too long, we are going to have to rush developement and chemistry by having an overhaul, however it's going to have to be done, the sooner the better. But this is my opinion of what's going on now and what we should do, please feel free to share your opinion.
  22. 4 defeats in 12 games, that is pathetic, and how many goals he's conceded is unforgivable. I once remember someone on this forum saying, if you want rid of carlo, be careful what you wish for.
  23. Guys what have we done?, we've got a curse, Torres is a fucking curse, i was dreading it when we put him on!. Can't we just sell him and get a new striker?, i just want to forget about the whole Torres thing.
