any link to the goal?? also people who are being snotty and be-littling lukaku's goals, why dont u just stay away from the thread. this is the LUKAKU THREAD, people will talk about him when he scores. if it bothers u so much, stay away.

the trend of the weekend has been disappointment. 1. arsenal going 10 men against a palace side which was looking deangerous and looking like scoring a goal. end 2-0 to arsenal 2. united looking so hopeless. yet somehow won the match 3-2. 3. barca beating real. lets hope chelsea can break this trend and give me something to cheer this weekend.

oh really?? in that case lamps>>>>>>iniesta+xavi+zidane and so on and so forth. your agenda against mata is becoming quite patheitc dude. lamps is a great player in every sense of the word. he has a SPECIAL knack for scoring goals which make and break matches. but that does not belittle mata creativity which is as SPECIAL.

i just hope he comes to the bridge for a loan spell or something. he definitely deserved a send off and an ovation worthy of his performances and all that he has done.

is that jose behind and in between schurrle and bert? whoever it is look so creepy.

should start against city over azpi. no doubt in my mind about it.

seriously?? moyes seems like a decent man.

people who are expecting lamps not to play and for mata to play, will be in for a BIG suprise,

dint expect THAT.

since i did not see any updates being posted about our youth team and since i dont know exactly where to post it, i will just post it here our youth team too won against schalke in the youth CL. 2-0 with goals from baker (pen) and ake. we are the only team (except for barca) to have a perfect start (9 points out of 3 games) in the youth CL. cheers from our youth team!!!

how the fuck did honda miss that. shot it straight at hart. but with this defense, our attack should be having a field day against city.

dont we have oscar already for that role plus kdb too? what we need is a DM. a proper DM.

rotation is needed if there is some instability, or u need to rest a player. u dont rotate your squad against the likes of man city. so far this season cahill-JT have been SOLID. absolutely brilliant. the only goal which we have conceded when cahill-JT have played is against villa which was scored by benteke and that goal in itself was unstoppable (off the post and in).if any1 gets a blame for that goal, it has to be iva who let agbanlahor run easily past him. moreover we look comfortable when playing with cahill-JT which is something that none of us can say for any of the games that luiz has started in so far this season. as for holding a line, cahill-jt are better at that then any1 playing with luiz who is found out of position so many times in just one match. moreover against good-foxy strikers like negredo we need some stabilty which cahill-JT provide rather than luiz's dynamism. so for me cahill-JT is a must start pair for the next game.

not even going to try to argue with such coments dude.

i feel the back 4 needs consistency. just like in 2004-05, when ferrera-carvalho-terry-gallas was our back 4 unless the rotation was needed or injury forced mou's hand.

arsenal group after round 3 arsenal - 6 points napoli - 6 points bvb - 6 points after round 4 (expectations) arsenal - 6 points bvb - 9 points napoli - 9 points after round 5 (expectations) arsenal - 9 points bvb - 12 points napoli - 9 points so in the end according to me, it would all come down to the napoli-arsenal fixture. napoli will have to win it as a draw would send arsenal to 2nd on head to head. the best thing would be napoli is able to get a point off bvb (away) in round 5 (improbable) or arsenal drop points to marseille at emirates (can happen after seeing arsenal's fixtures palace (away) - PL chelsea (home) - COC liverpool (home) - PL dortmund (away) - CL united (away) - PL southampton (home) - PL marseille (home) - CL. really tough fixtures and as we all know, once they start fucking over, arsenal dont stop. lets all hope for the best and hope that arsenal fuck up big time!!!

he realy IS the special one.

NOW, he is playing like EDEN - fucking - HAZARD should. brilliant in both the games (against cardiff, schalke). hope he can make clichy/kolarov his bitch and score a couple.

BRILLIANT!!! and any1 who knows me remotely would fall off their chairs reading this. but credit where its due. today even his holdplay was better than decent. his general play was fabulous. what a dilemma for jose for the city match. torres or etoo??? NO IDEA!!!

big match and the our first big match at home. against all the big teams so far (united,, tottenham, bayern) we have defended and tried to counter. will be interesting to see how jose sets us up to play against the team which has been a real nightmare for us in the past seasons. also some of the selections he has to make would get him a lot of stick if it does not work. the striker position (after torres' performance tonight and etoo performance in general), the 3rd AM (mata has not set things on fire + he has not had his best games against city while schurlle and willian have been more than good and definitely better than mata for the wing spot). the CB spot in one where i have no doubt who jose plays - cahill+terry. they have been brilliant together and cahill deserves his chance. for me the starting 11 would be exactly the same as today's (schalke match) except for etoo for torres + bertrand for azpi (azpi dint reallt look comfortable to me on the left flank). hope for a good performance and a great result as city must be tired after their russian trip (and hopefully an unsuccessful one).

brilliant performance. we got an early goal, sat back and tried to counter whenever possible. brilliant tactics by jose and brilliant execution by the players. we have looked so dangerous on counters and not just against teams like norwich, cardiff , schalke but even against bayern. just goes on to show the work being put up in the team. cech - ANOTHER brilliant performance. the operational word here is ANOTHER. i mean to rate him is a little difficult cos he is never below a 8. keep it up PETR. 9/10 iva - to be honest, after his weekend antics i was a little worried of how he ll perform against draxler and i wanted azpi to start over him. but a solid performance. probably was at mistake at one point where he was dragged away so easily by aogo while he let draxler run directly at the defence. except for that dont remember any thing that he did wrong. 7.5/10 cahill + terry - i dont see the point of ranking the cbs individually when both were so good and solid. cahill+terry has been our BEST CB partnership this season. any1 who denies it must be blind. they complement each other brilliantly, both are solid at the back, good in the air. would definitely be my starting CBs against city on sunday. 8.5/10 azpi - got himself into some awkward position as his clearing today was poor by his left foot. but a good performance none the less. some great blocks. 7.5/10 ramires - THE BOSS!!! where does he get his reserves of running from. just brilliant. even though he has to work on his first touches a little. plenty of times in the first half he started the counter and was central to every counter that was happenin in the first half but due to his poor first touches, we lost the ball or the schalke defence/mid cleared. nonetheless, good game. 8/10 lamps - decent game. a proper CDM performance. played well but i feel in such matches when the long ball is not going to do the trick or is not required, mikel would be a better player. but we will need his vision and long balls against city. would be interesting how he copes with silva and toure. 7/10 hazard - what a PERFORMANCE!!! those 2 touches which led to the 2nd goal. ORGASMIC!!! overall play was fantastic, and his workrate was immense. covered aogo runs most of the times. (i feel he could and probably should have passed the ball to torres for his hat-trick) 9/10 oscar - good performance. solid. worked really hard in the mid. and was central to our counters. player of the season so far. 8/10 schurlle - decent performance. defensively was brilliant, offensively was too direct. if it works in a counter then its awesome, if not then u get critisized. nonetheless a good, work-man like performance. 8/10 torres - BRILLIANT!!! and any1 who knows me remotely would fall off their chairs reading this. but credit where its due. today even his holdplay was better than decent. his general play was fabulous. what a dilemma for jose for the city match. torres or etoo??? NO IDEA!!! 9.5/10 - MOTM subs- mikel, luiz, etoo - mere formality by the time they came in. nothing much to do or did they do.

perfect match by him. him+terry in the center of the defence has been like a wall for us.

dont think we ll buy any1 unless we offload a few first.

MUST NOT LOSE GAME. but seeing how depleted schalke is, we should be winning this.

Luiz has had the same problem since the day he came to cfc. this is not a nothing thing with luiz. this is not a worry about his "form" which i feel is perfectly alright. i dont even know what exactly to name/call luiz's problem. his problem is definitely not his attitude/passion (which in fact is great). the closest i can come to is his concentration. or simply put his brain-fart. and this problem of his was in 2011 and the all the way to the date. ps - please read my posts with "TOMO". you would know how exactly i rate luiz. infact that is the worst part of luiz. knowing how well he can play but actually watching him play the way he is doing right now.
