next week is going to be MEGA CRITICAL. everton vs pool city vs spurs arsenal vs southampton cardiff vs united (cardiff is no easy place to go to and will be very testing for united). add to that whu vs chelsea. BIG BIG BIG week.

ba will be 10 times more a threat against whu at their home compared to etoo. etoo thrives when their is link up play and the game is flowing, and i am under no illusion about how the game will actually be played. it will all come down to the no. of air balls our striker has won and his hold up play. and for me, ba is way better than etoo in that aspect.

if we can be in 5-10 points' gap off the top until JAN, then we can go on our end of the season run and try to fight for the title.

not even expecting a point off this game. its in november, away from home and against a team that is physically very strong and hence our achilles heel. cech azpi iva JT bert rambo mikel schurrle mata hazard ba. 1-2 loss.

relax... its just the november curse...

full team???

line ups?

accepted. hazard is one of the best talents around. but what message does it send to others. schurrle and willian - should not be dropped after their performances against schalke , arsenal (willian) and city (schurrle) oscar - can be "rested" though i dont think he needs to be "rested". kdb and mata - deserve a chance to prove their worth especially if the vacant spot is the CAM. after watching jose's PC, i dont doubt that hazard will start but it would simply be unfair to others to see hazard get such favouritism specially since he has been no where near his own personal best or the team's best AM.

i like him. and want him to play his best. but that does not mean to be an idiot and say hazard is better than CR in LW or mikel is better than javi martinez as a CDM. there is a difference in supporting and knowing the facts and the truth. unfortunately many great personalities (like urself) dont get that. LOL... hahahaha...lol...hahah (wow, its funny writing like u).lol..hahaha

OH MY GAWD!!! one good match in the whole season so far... deserves a ballon d'or, right? oh wait, according to you, he is anyways gonna get it... !!! lol...

oh really??? the last time i checked schurrle got a goal against city, was defending for the team playing his heart off and in general has been far more effective on the left hand side than hazard has been (offensively and defensively). i would have given hazard the benefit of doubt had he been better than schurrle atleast in attack, but "he really hasnt".

strange how we would drop 3 CAMs (oscar, mata, kdb) on the bench or from the matchday squad itself just to give hazard a look in. WHY? what is every1's deal with hazard here. we are willing to sacrifice our team's win and performance just so hazard can get more involved!!!

so what makes hazard the world's best player? the own goal from luna against villa. WWWWWWWWAAAAAAAAAAWWWWWWWWWWWW... incredible.... WWWAAAWWW...

MOTM vs RM. plus got his team a win in that match. hahahahah... lol... hahahah... lol...

schurrle is PLAYING better. really better.

really?? no one told rdm/rafa/avb/jose that. moreover for the last 2 season lamps has been winning european titles while playing in the CM/DM position. so now i am a bit confused!!!

our top players did play in the important and the core of that team will be the same against wba too. lamps and cole will not and should not start.

he takes players on. he is direct. he is not creative on the ball cos he does not need to be. he has a mind-blowing long shot (watch him play for germany). he does what a winger SHOULD be doing. provides us with width and spread the play nicely. also his workrate and closing down can simply kill the opposition.

^this. never really liked the idea of a january transfer window. i feel the only dealings that should be done in the january transfer window should be 1. if the player-board/manager relation goes sour. 2. if the team is performing reallly poor and u need some1 desperately to do damage control. 3. big,major,nuclear injury crisis.

hahahaha... what has hazard done this entire season to warrant a start over schurrle? schurrle has been more of a threat attackingly, much much more effective in defence. he has been doing what hazard should have been doing, BEING DIRECT. all in all after being dropped after the man city game where he got the ever so important first goal, i dont see why he should be dropped again after giving a good performance.

maybe u r right in defending cech there. and while i keep saying it was a moment of brilliance from aguero, i still feel cech could have done a little better had he been positioned better. anyways coming to GC's part in the goal. this clip from TOPTB is awesome. look at agueor at 6 seconds. he starts taking a run behind GC but just lingers on/ holds his run for a second (probably even takes a step back from the goal to be played on). u have to say thats a phenomenal run from a striker.

why do i feel that both of us are saying the same thing. the only difference being, i am giving iva the benefit of doubt as he has been brilliant defensively, working really hard for the team and he gives an awesome tactical advantage to mou to go 3-4-3 when in need for a goal. while u and others are , rightly, condemning him for his malfunctioning in the last 3rd.

read the post above yours from TOPTB. also please dont say aguero was 1v1 against cech. the ball was moving away from the ball with gc alongside aguero and the only outlet being cech's nearpost is barely going 1v1.

the goal also would not even have happened if cech was covering his near post which he should have been as there was nothing else on for aguero in that situation. again, not saying that GC was faultless but to blame him majorly for that goal is...

i was highlighting iva's attacking contribution in my last post. about how he helps our RW find space because of his continous runs up and down the field.
