zouma in mid, oscar on the wings.

and thats the saddest part.

wanna bet on it? did not u bet your account on something!!! seems like all of it wont be of any use.

that is a poor line up against an injury ridden united.

line ups?

koke - top class!!! really?? if u believe gilvorak.. all he can do is cross. :lol:

trololololololol... did i hit a nerve. by the way, you ass, cesc played as a false 9 or a CAM for barca. yet we have played him the majority of his season as a DLP. koke has played games even this season as a DLP and he was brilliant. he played there last season and was brilliant. there are certain characteristics which are apparent when you actually see a player rather than just keep trolling u jackass. "nothing special about him", why even bother with a person with such an asenine opinion.

Xavi in his "PEAK". Koke is 22. Just 22 and already an almost WC player. As for koke's passing speed, I think that is very good. Infact something that we need. Too many ball dwellers right now in cesc, hazard and willian.I compared koke-matic-cesc to xavi-biscuits-iniesta to just show that physical speed is only so important specially if the team has a style. I do agree that it night not work, but honestly how different would it be from the current situation. If we are able to get pogba, that would be ultimate. If not koke is a definite uograde on Oscar. Ps- did u read gilvorak's comment. Koke is closr to milner. Now u tell me how exactly one should deal with a moron like that who compares koke to milner while just last weel called oscar a GOAT!!!! PROPER TROLL. According to gilvorak the great, all koke has got is a great crosa, nothing more.

honestly hope that happens. would drive up his price massively...

koke wont come as a backup. he will definitely be the starter. and then is the point of resale value. oscar will go for 20+mil. rambo wont. and lets be realistic, jose wont replace rambo with RLC. zouma after performing so awesomely has still somehow lost his place to GC. RLC will not make the cut next year. maybe mvg can do that squad role. lastly, is the point of having 3 similar players like oscar/cesc/koke while selling the one who gives us something very different.

i would never call xavi a dribbling king. iniesta is a different story but definitely not xavi. koke is a decent dribbler himself and his holding onto the ball under pressure is something of his USP i feel.

carrick is already out!!!

i feel u have got koke all wrong here. he is as good as oscar if not better than oscar defensively. and i am not only talking about the workrate but overall defensive intelligence of koke is very good. as for "slowest" midfield, an awesome example comes to mind - xavi-busquets-iniesta. that midfield on paper has got to be the slowest midfield in the world (no exaggeration). but its not just about the pace of the players but actually how quickly those players move the ball. also, why should we keep dreaming. we did play that free flowing football for 4 months at the start of the season, did not we? as for the backline, buying varane or the atleast promoting zouma as the 2nd CB ahead of GC has to be a priority next season too. i honestly think, all of the problems u posed (definitely valid) have a very definite solutions.

no blind, no carrick, no rojo, no jones. evans is still suspended. fuck yeah!!!!

we dont want to sell - is like jose's code word for hahah sucker, u r out!!!

i like this guy and he is truly a very technically brilliant player. but we can get koke for half the price and koke is better suited to our needs.

oh great!! now we will have 2 threads where people will keep cribbing.

does not rambo have an awesome record against united?

i absolutely love the WAGNH article. eye opener. when i started reading that article, i had a niggling feeling that i had indeed read it somewhere. just did not know where. as i kept on reading, it dawned on me, FERNANDO TORRES. have not we all read 100s of such articles on torres and how it was all our fault that he did not play well. it started with "its drogba's fault", then "its sturridge's fault", its mata's fault as he keeps to be getting into torres' position, no its the midfield's fault for no service. it was every fucking thing's fault on this god's green earth except for torres' fault. and now reading this article, its the same thing, is not it. it starts with "we bought cesc but we knew he was defensively blah blah blah". then it makes it seem like oscar is actually playing as a DM and working so damn hard to cover all of cesc's faults (by the way, is not it oscar who loses the ball the most and it is him that we end up covering for!!!), then its the fault of the system and the way he is being used and my favourite part of the article, the cherry on the top, "we should buy a midfielder to partner matic, so that it frees oscar up". so drop cesc!!!!!!!!???? one of our players of the season? 5 goals and 22 assists not enough from a deep position? i mean are oscar and cesc even comparable when discussing about vision, passing, through-balls etc etc. whats even more baffling is the fact that the article makes it seem that there has been no drop of form from oscar, no lowering of his intensity (when was his last trademark tackle?) and that all of it is "others" fault. its deja vu. we have made a mistake once, hopefully we dont repeat it.

totally agree with almost everything. but disagree that koke is the only one that improves us. koke would be the ultimate buy which would solve our mid problems. but if we dont get him and make reus our no.1 buy, a midfield 3 of hazard-cesc/willian-reus would be mind blowing too.

CB should be higher on the priority list than sterling. for me no.1 priority - koke/pogba no.2 priority - varane/hummels no.3 - second gk no.4 - sterling/reus (luxury buy) i would probably put "get a proper matic back up" higher than a RW.

we could sell oscar and replace him with reus. hazard-willian/cesc-reus as our 3 behind the striker.

pogba? koke? there are 2 players in our current squad who seem to be as good if not better (cesc, willian) and then there is the point of hazard who has looked his best when in the center. if we buy reus/bale/sterling, we can easily shift hazard as CAM> but please dont say there are no better available players or options.

whats weird is that costa went through the "patch" and no one "bashed" him, cesc went through the patch and people commented on his late season syndrome but i did not see any "bashing". same goes with matic for a certain extent and i dont see any bashing. the problem is the posters like "suckmypsg" really like to generalize stuff and keep on posting stupid things just to protect their favourite player. so no, i dont think any one will "bash" koke if we get him and he goes through a bad spell. we ll stick behind him till he finds his form or if he keeps giving his 100% on the field (and there are a few players who might not be anywhere near the best players in the world or even in that position like GC, iva, willian and rambo but people do give them their due respect cos they give their 100% for the team and dont take their place for guaranteed). but somehow all of this is ignored by posters like "suckmydickpsg" just so that they can defend their oscar.
