  1. I noticed that Andy Carroll didnt play today. Wonder if he'll play against us. If not, both he and Antonio would be out who are their only real goal threats. Same team as today, please!
  2. I believe we have 3 matches remaining against what I would consider good sides: City, United, and Everton. Cesc should start all but those 3. We look a completely different side going forward with him on the pitch as the playmaking general. With Kante behind him just destroying everything in his sights we can afford using Fabregas against every "small" side.
  3. Diego's touch and control in tight situations is indeed awful. The strange thing is that some games it's superb and others like this it can be shocking and Lukaku-like. He needs to sharpen up big time if we want to hold on to win the title.
  4. Need to smother them again just like we did in the first 45 and press the hell out of them again, too. They get a couple chances on goal and we'll get sucker punched again.
  5. I was just starting to type how the only negative that first half was that we didn't add another goal or two to our dominant football and then we concede in the only possible way they're scoring there. Unbelievable. Now they'll come out with belief that they can get something here when we should be out of sight.
  6. Let's fucking go. High energy, dominate the ball. Strange to say with our 8 point lead, but this is a must win game. Come on, boys!
  7. At home, everyone fit and well rested, and playing a side near the bottom of the table. Normally I'd be very confident but we have to be very weary of Swansea and not think we can just breeze by them. I think we'd be in real danger of the wheels coming off if we lose this and give everyone behind us belief that we can be caught. Just please don't give away any stupid free kicks around our box, ffs. Sigurdson is such a huge threat both going for goal or aiming for the head of Llorente. We must be machine-like killers here and put them away. Hopefully Hazard and Costa can return to form.
  8. Exactly the sort of player we need to be targeting this summer. Extremely technical, great in tight areas, and eye for the killer ball. He and Hazard on either side of Diego would be unreal.
  9. Raid Monaco for Silva + Bakayoko and that's a good bit of our business in the summer done.
  10. Whatever. Sorry, but if we win it "yay," nice to add another trophy. If we don't it's not like the PL or CL or even a CL place where I'd be super disappointed. If you're Arsenal or Spuds who haven't won shit in ages or United last season who went years and years without winning an FA Cup then it's a huge deal, but I'm personally pretty indifferent to the competition. The "magic" of the FA Cup is lost on me I suppose. Guess what I'm saying is the only two competition that matter to me are the PL and CL. FA Cup is nice and League Cup is meaningless.
  11. Since I'm not English the FA Cup doesn't hold much significance for me so thankfully I won't be too bothered or devastated if we were to lose this. I care only about the PL title so even if we do go out we'd have only 1 competition to focus on. Saying all that, I hope we humiliate Mourinho at the Bridge again.
  12. Awwww, damn. Was hoping this would be the matchup for the final and Conte could win the trophy over José at Wembley.
  13. Yes, please. There'll be loads of big clubs fighting for this guy, but he's the sort of attacking player that Hazard deserves to play alongside.
  14. Think I recall this lad being heavily linked with Liverpool and was highly sought after by Klopp. This tells me that he's the type of player who would excell in the PL.
  15. He looks dangerous almost every time he gets forward but there must be something strange about the right side of our attack...some sort of voodoo or black magic stuff. He and Willian are the same on that side. Get to the final ball and the move falls apart.
  16. Moses transformed into Antonio Valencia that match. Smacked about 30 crosses into the man marking him.
  17. Terry is past it completely, sadly, Zouma has almost zero composure or technical ability on the ball, and Aké just isn't quite up to speed yet. Pedro playing like a fish out of water as a wingback. This game just goes to show you how dependent we are on Luiz and Azpi. Also shows we 100% need to target another CB with ability in the summer.
  18. That we look poor at the back is understandable since there's no cohesion or understanding between that back line and keeper. That we look absolutely abysmal in attack with all of our best players out there is concerning. If they can't handle this shit Wolves side and couldn't break down Burnley it's got to be a worry for Swansea who are in great form and have been a bogey side for us for the past couple of years. Hazard and Diego in particular look dreadful.
  19. Thought initially that we were going with trusty old 4-2-3-1 but then remembered that Pedro can play as a wingback. Not surprised or upset that Costa starts instead of Bats. He's been rusty these past couple of matches and needs to play himself back into form in time for Swansea. We need him back to his best with City creeping up on us.
  20. What's most impressive is tha Bayern barely broke a sweat and still utterly dominated Arsenal. To have what felt like 80% possession against one of the best possession sides in Europe just shows how many levels above Arsenal they are. Also, man am I jealous of Bayern's midfield trio. Vidal and Thiago are so fucking good and Xabi still runs the show effortlessly at his age.
  21. A bit harsh I think because he's been a solid 7 out of 10 player for most of this season with a few really good games and a few stinkers. He hasn't been so poor that he deserves to be sold ASAP but if we have aspirations of winning the CL and going for what will be an even tougher PL next season then we need an upgrade. Vidal, Matuidi, Verratti... We'll have an insane amount of cash to spend this summer and more importantly, the lessons we learned last season about not strengthening after a successful season. We need some statement of intent type signings.
  22. Luiz, Matic, and Hazard should be nowhere near the starting XI for this. Luiz and Hazard because they're tired/injured and Cesc deserves to start in place of Matic in order to get in rythm. We play about 5 straight fixtures against small clubs who will play just like Burnley just did. Frustrate the hell out of us, park the bus, hit it long over and over again, and play for knock-downs and set pieces. We need Fabregas to get minutes because we'll need him.
  23. After seeing that result from us and with the form City and Bournemouth are I I think City will annihilate them.
