Remy playing like an idiot. It was a relatively even match, Ox with a great goal.

I'm surprised Willian was starting considering he def couldn't have already be match fit. But great start for him. Good start for us overall as well.

Don't like Walcott as striker for them. None of our CBs would want to face him.

Yes, agree. I was almost in love with Davidson by the end of the match. Reminded me our own LB, Azpi. Gave it her all.

I don't think Pogba is suited for a two man midfield either. Very few are. Even Cesc isn't. Pogba would def do better than Veratti though.

I'm sorry if these were posted before, but great little interview with Jose: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zdJcxd35wV4 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Cx8-O8MJs44 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kc8PrdgCCIw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7T0X7SaXWB4

I said xPetrCechx because he does a great job for TC already by posting all the up to date news stories. That effort should be rewarded. Plus on top he never gets into arguments with anyone, mainly cause he doesn't get into any heated discussions but a mod doesn't have to be a football analyst. Easy for him to mod cause no one can argue that he's being biased, cause he never puts himself in this position. The perfect mod imo, someone who is impossible to criticise because he never posts any such thing and he'll be able to do the dirty work too for the same reason. No one could ever say he's abusing his power etc. Edit - the other nominees are also worthy but I just wanted to support my nomination instead of just throwing a name out there without a reason.

xPetrCechx gets my nomination.

Because against PSG he actually played in midfield and looked good. No dropping deep, actually playing deep. Against Barca was just the regular Oscar dropping deep, still looking good though. I don't think he'd be a regular option for the midfield though, especially if it's just a 2 man midfield. Reckon PSG was just forced to give minutes to everyone.

Jose wants a left footed right winger. If you have that you'll get a chance. Obv he looks very raw but physically he looks great and has very good work rate, which is half the battle won as far getting into a Jose team.

Falcao is a sexy man.

Might go to Penalties again, haha. I love this "competition"

Hahahaha Cahill What a goal!! WORLD CLASS!!!!!!!!!!!!! MAJESTERIAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! THE BALL AND HIS NOSE IN THE GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! YES SON!!!

Awww Rami, shoulda chipped it!

You just labelled our entire last season as lazy and loose pressing? You really think our pressing was that bad last season?

Lol wow what a miss by Rakitic

LMAO COSTA hahahahah wtf was that.

Azpi seems to be gambling a lot when he's exposed 2 on 1. Almost always allowing the through ball for the runner.

Kennedy > Messi Hazard > Kennedy OMFG HAZARD WHAT A FUCKING GOAL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is this for real? Jose is even in the head of Benitez's wife? That's fucked up haha.

Tbh Hazard doesn't really get in the box as much as you'd want him to either. He plays pretty far away from the scoring positions.

We should have been in for him. Fucked up imo, he's worth it, even at 50M.

Good squad player, never going to be good enough to start imo. Has similar deficiencies as Schurrle as he's not that great of a passer. He's a better dribbler than Schurrle though. I don't see any of the bench options beating out Willian for the RW though, not even close. Willian may not score a lot but his all around play (passing, defending, etc.) is miles better. On par with Hazard, if not better.

He did look very good in the midfield. Very comfortable to be exact, like he's born to play there. However, it'd have to be a 4-3-3 type of midfield, can't expect him to succeed in a 2-man pivot. Really it's the same case for Cesc as well.
