ake WILL get some playtime with the senior team specially with the fixture congestion during that time. the others will be playing european competitions (U-19) which is better than playing in the championship.

why "thud"? seems fair!!!

dont have a good feeling about this one. plus that warnock is anyways annoying with his cribbings.

belgium decision making in the final third has been shocking. origi is worse the kalou in that aspect. had 10 pounds on them. gonna lose it.

I think reus is better than ribery but I don't think that u can use injuries to prove that. Reus is as injury prone as ribery if not more. Dont forget that ribery is 30 and is bound to get some injuries while reus is supposed to be in the prime of his physical fitness.

nothing "unlucky" there. he did a TORRES.

first things first, when i said that these players would walk into any team, i meant it to show that their CLASS sets them apart so much that if they are available, they start, something which is not the case with LUIS right now. secondly, i have read your posts about CR and now u called him a "stat whore". any person who has such opinions of a 2 time ballon dor winner, is not worth having an argument against. also, a lot of people thought that robben would not start for a pep team. as much as i so bayern, i think robben was one of the main players in pep's bayern last season, so their goes your cr wont start for pep team argument.

How does suarez fit the barca philosophy? Having messi play second fiddle to suarez is a far bigger challenge than having CR adjust his game style specially considering the fact that messi continued playing thru the center despite someone like aguero in argentina and zlatan in barca. The arrogance and high headedness of that one is just unreal.Ribery and robben had a very bad relationship. Both had wanted to leave bayern cos of the other. 2012 cl final is proof of that spat. Agree about bastian. Injury wise he won't make it. But like the WC showed, he is still the best CM around.

for me bastian is the best and the most complete CM in the world. maybe vidal can compete for that but except for that NONE. why wont CR start barca? if ribery and robben can co-exist, so can CR and robben.

Your personality type: "Harmony-seeking Idealist" Quietly forceful, original and sensitive. Tend to stick to things until they are done. Extremely intuitive about people and concerned for their feelings. Well-developed value systems which they strictly adhere to. Well-respected for their perserverence in doing the right thing. Likely to be individualistic, rather than leading or following. makes sense.

i miss PL. bloody international break.

the FACT that our manager is playing a RB in the LB position ahead of a player who supposedly is the best LB in the world should tell people something. also, when you talk about the best players in the world, you have it as a GIVEN that they would WALK into any team. CR messi suarez ADM lahm robben neuer t silva yaya bastian kompany vidal bale iniesta these guys will be a part of their first 11 irrespective of whichever club they are playing for

makes sense blackman, GC, ake, 4th CB, zouma/JT, cesc, 6th AM (boga), 5th CM (baker). but still think costa, remy, benteke is overkill. in an ideal world, costa, benteke and bamford will be perfect.

Agree with almost everything except for the striker. Costa, remy and mr. X is overkill. Someone like bamford will be a good 3rd option and most importantly HG. We will be losing JT next year (probably) and gwtting someone who is not HG since I can't think of any WC HG option. Also, if we sell cech, we might have to buy a back up GK too. Mark will be 42 next year. Ins - reus, pogba, CB, GK OUTS- salah, mikel, cech, moses, marin, bertrand, romeu, kakuta.

was not his book supposed to release today? its still not on AMAZON.

true. but sometimes u have to look at the bigger picture. he might improve us next season, but would become a "problem" in 2/3 seasons' time. also, in our "system", a top defender becomes a WC defender.

another stop gap. we would have a 31 year old chiellini, 31 year old iva, 29 year old GC, 30 year old luis if we buy chiellini (i can only think that we would buy him to replace JT). which means a defensive overhaul in a couple of season which is never good. i would rather that we get a long time solution.

i heard that there will be no action against wenger!!! seriously???

Did people actually say thay cesc dint do anything except for the pass? the guy BOSSED the first half. Personally have never seen him so good defensively as he was in the first half. He was EVERYWHERE. The cribbers will always find a way to crib. We were very complete. Saying that we DOMINATED the game would be wrong but we definitely CONTROLLED the game throughout. Defended and soaked up the pressure when necessary, attacked and counter attacked as needed. Also credit where its due, arsenal were decent defensively. I really thought that they would capitulate after conceding the first but they held on.

The clean sheet goes to cech? What's the criteria for the CS going to one or the other GK.

So where are thw people who wanted us to play attacking football in a big game? Are they not entertained?

WILL be tougher than today. Specially with watnock crying for everything.

Cesc's vision is so good that he probably could have found ozil today. (If u know what I mean)

MOTM. WHAT A BRILLIANT PERFORMANCE. how many clearances, tackles and interceptions did he have in our own 3rd. Unreal. Just fabulous from oscar. Linked up well in attack but the sheer running, will and workrate was a beauty to watch.

Has a role in the squad, and he plays tjat role to perfection. Brilliant squad player to have to close down the ganes.
