How was his gial?? any link

LOL

Cech Iva Gc Jt azpi Matic lamps/dl Schurrle willian hazard Etoo Oscar simoly has not warranted a place in the startimg eleven for such a big match. He has been pior and we simply can't have out of form players for such a game. The reat of the team picks itself. Cant dexide between lamps and dl though.

Dead average.

So arsenal won't self destruct. ... LOL

What a win!!!! People here on need to cool down their asses and understand that its a 90minute game. The amonut of stick schurrle was getting was RIDICULOUS. Some of the posters need to be ashamed. Now we are 4 points above arse-anal and simply right into it. Our main compwtition is city but if we keep doing what we are then we are no doubt going to be champs. As for the game, it was a game of 2 halves. Fulham were surely up for it. I think they deaerve a lot of credit to the first half display. We were below par but they were brilliant too. Cech- should have kept a clean sheet. And he was rightly pissed that he dint. Made a couole of good stops and his distribution was brilliant as with our 3rd goal. 8/10 Azpi- one of his pooreat performance this season. Dejagah gave him a nightnare even during the end. If dejagah was good in his decision making we could have been in for a hard time. 5/10 Jt - good dispkay. His and gcs partwnership is looking just brilliant. Was caused a little problem by bent though.7/10 Gc- briliant. Another awesome performance. Covered jt brilliantly. Covered iva brilliantly. Except for one momwnt where he misjudged the flight of the ball and let bent chest it down, he was flawless. 9/10 Iva- very average. Seemed very tired. Let kasami run outside of him in thw dfirst minuted itself. 6/10 Matic - average performancr. His over the top passing is not good enough though he tries it sometimes. Not one of his best natches. 7/10 Rambo- horrendous first half. But brilliant sexond half. That ball to schurrle from thw corner was kust brilliant. Broke a lot of attacks and was really lethal on counters in the xloaing minutea. 7/10 Oscar- another very average perdormance. No sprk. No momeny of magic. 6/10 Hazard - very average first half but MOTM. Ehat a ball to schutrle for the first goal. What a ball for the second goal. That RABONA gave me a fucking ORGASM. To all the people who saod that he is only as good as the team TAKE THAT. 9/10 Schurrle- horrendoua first half. Loa t the ball almost with his every touch I thibk. But what a brilliant sexond half. The ball from eden was brilliant but so was the run and the finish. His other 2 finiahes were also quite good but what is even more suprosing were the runs. Spexially for the sexond goals. That should have been a strikers run. Good gamr. 9/10 Torres- I'd qe had dropped pointa today it wouldbhave been his mistake. At this level u simply can not let such an easy chance. People say our problems won't be solved by a dw cwnt striker and I say rhat is bullahit. 6/10 Subs- Mikel- decwnt. Covered azpi a couple of times when he was get pounded. Slowed the gamr down. 6/10 Ba - decent. Looked hungry. Shoukd be ahead of torres for auch physical matchea. Luiz- na.

I love STOKE

Hahahaha... awkward???

I like it cos it means jose will defo light a fire under every1's ass before the next half.

Hahahagaga.... the moyes, tan and spurs part is hilarious But nothing beats your blackman vs hilario in one of the previous ones.

I dint critisize luiz. On the other hand u seem to have an agenda against rambo. Plus he is tired??? He has started1 game in 10 ddays now. Plus I purposely waited till the team sheet was out and u know I am shocked to see jt-cahill. Plus I did say I went a little overboard in critisizing NOT DL, but people who wanted to disrupt a well established back 4. Imfact I wanted luiz to start in mid. But u don't leave an oppurtunity to ridicule rambo and moat of the time without cause.

Expected line up

Want that co tract renewal to take place. Simply don't think he is good enough to lead our line ans defo not worth 32mil and 40mil is a joke. Mandzukic is a much better option.

Its absolutelt different. I might have gone a little overboard when someone suggested DL in defense but I was not ridiculing DL in anyway. This is what I wrote to robguima in my last repky to him. If u ask me, we need dl's legs in the mid for tomorrow. Him n matic to carry our pressing game forwars along with oscar. On the other hand, people bash one of our players saying things like In that case I'd play Rami and pray for God to help us. (It can be found in one of the long essays on this page itself) but in the same breath say its ridiculous to say something about DL.

well what is one supposed to say when inxluding DL woyld mean changing a perfectly fine back 4. Also the comments were pertaining to this match. (Read my discussion with robguima)Ps- some people are such hypocrites (not u skipper). Saying something about luiz is RIDICULOUS. But comments like if "ramires plays then god help us" is perfectly fine. LOL.

Fair enough. But as u said, the most important thing here is balance. Throwing n commiting bodies ahead works if u have good cover. For us, if dl plays the free Cb role then we are open to counters with JT being our last man. Simply not a good situation especially against soneone like bent. Plus I think we are massively underating fulham. They have good players, a new manager ( which mormalky works well for a team), their first home match under him , that too a derby against their closest rivals. They will be up for it, add to that our tiredness and fatigue, it has a look of a difficult outing rather than a walk in the park/attack till they crack u expect.Arsenal play a certain way whike we play another. Not fair to compare these 2 and expect one of tge teams to go the way of the itger one. If u ask me, we need dl's legs in the mid for tomorrow. Him n matic to carry our pressing game forwars along with oscar.

What points?? The point that we will change our whole system to break the great wall of fulham ( who by the way havr conceded the most no. Of goals this season). Sorry but simply don't think we need to be that desperate.Yes, we need solidity against any team to win the natch. This is a fulham team that scored 2 against both pool n United in the last month. infact our USP has been concedinf the least no. Of goals and playing as a unit in a particular system. So I massively diaagree with even the possilbility of US playing in yiur said manner. So u think one point means nothing? (This does not mean that I would like a draw or be happy with it). But in a title race where 4 points separate 1st and 4th, every point is crucial. One point is the difference between us beong on top of the table rather than arsenal. Every point here is CRUCIAL.

Is scolari our coach? Oh wait!!! That ego maniac got his ass fired 5 years ago. Anyways when a person writes something in a "talkchelsea" forum and moreover in a match thread, it becones quite ovvious that he would be talking about chelsea. But I can see why you would bring brazil into the mix, since that is the ONLY defence left to luiz in defence. Let me enlighten u here. We are not brazil. We don't play this way AT ALL. Jose likes solidity at the back and well to think he ll tactically ask luiz to break rank is a laughable idea to me. I don't know how u got the idea of us playing this way but I can wager ANYTHING that this won't be it. Also considering the fact that we are top of the table, I would say we do know how to beat lower teams. Also I really wanna know who we should drop to incoprate luiz. Our captain, without whom we did drop points at wba and looked like a fish out of water against city or one of our defender of the season who well has been consistently brilliant for 2 and a half months now.

Anyone who wants DL in defenxe should be tested for mental stability

What was said in the PC??? ANY TEAM NEWS?

city play Sunderland in the final of COC. Not thesuspended game.

I hope u r wrong in this cos it would mean that torres will be here for another season.

Agreed about the kolarov tactic but it should also come down to city being 10men and absolutely knaxkered towards the end.Plus I would rather that someone like nasri havr played on the wing thus keeping alves busy om the other end of the pitxh. Anyways, I still gove city a xhamce especially since they have nothing to lose.

Great spirot shown by tottenham. Brilliant performanxe by the swans too. Deserved so much more. Ps- vertonghen is a disgrace.

What I find funny is, the people who are being called as "mikel lovers" have never once brought up the point of mikel vs matic. Infact since all of us are xhelsea fans, I sincerely douby that any sane fan would. But some are just so eager to (can't use scapegoat, bash, hatr or critisize) pin point (easy out) mikels flaws and limitations that they themselves will start with the comparision.
