Pizy

What are you on? Our BEST 11 without Mata alone we struggle. This lineup has no Mata, Hazard, AND Bertrand who offers nothing going forward.We're right to be worried.

Unbelievable. My confidence that we'd win has completely vanished. Won't be surprised at all if we lose this one.

Apparently he's got fever. FUCK!

Ashley Young is an absolute embarrassment and a cheat. I've seen him flop and dive 3 times this game with little to no contact. I hate watching him. If I supported United I think I would too. He does it every game he plays.

It's gonna be a nervy day for me not being able to see this one on tv and following the match via twitter. Can't watch a stream, so ill be glued to my ipad the whole time. Hope we play our strongest possible side and get the 3 points at any cost. Don't care if its the ugliest game we've played with a goal coming in the 87 minute. Just fucking win! Cannot afford to drop points against the 16th team on the table.

Great. Game isn't even televised here.

It'll be yet another match where a keeper will have the game of his career against us.Real opportunity to pad the gap potentially. Wilshere and Walcott are injured so Arse may be gimped a bit.

Hope he keeps this form up for the remainder of the season! Awesome!

Roman could just throw Jose a couple extra million and the new Ferrari La Ferrari if we don't make top 4. Then I'm sure he wouldn't mind managing through the Europa League for a year.

The Sky interview will probably be him denying all rumors and speculation and he'll say he's completely committed to Real Madrid. He'll deny meeting with Roman and he'll deny he was at the match last night. Basically, he'll get all of our hopes up and prove that the English media know fuck all. Hope I'm proven wrong!

I was really adamant about us getting him back in January, but as I've watched more and more of him recently he's fallen off quite a bit. Looked really poor in a few of Everton's matches and in Belgium's friendly the other day against Macedonia he looked downright awful at times. I can certainly see him improving our side and he himself can only get better with the class we have in our squad. I'd take him without a second thought at £25m but no more than that. A midfield pairing of either Fellaini & Ramires or Fellaini & Mikel behind our attacking mids could be insane. We'd have a ridiculous amount of options to suit the different styles of opponents. Fellaini can play all around the pitch.

Surely that isn't a legit twitter. Why's it in english?

Damn I really wish we'd have bought Dembele. So good.

It's on ESPN3.com

He and Neymar link up superbly. Great chemistry and they look like best friends. Make it happen, Oscar!

Completely hinges on whether or not we finish top 4 I'd think. Make top 4 and I think we'll splash the cash on an expensive striker. Fail and we recall Lukaku and focus on another area to invest money in.

I'm serious! He could be just as good as those two with other great players around him. He scores at will in a midtable Liverpool side that he carries. Imagine an attack with Suarez, Mata, Hazard, ect. Teams would shit bricks before the match even started.

Or Suarez.

Remember the photos of Hulk signing Chelsea shirts? Means nothing really.

I'd certainly prioritize this one over the FA Cup tie but I have a feeling we'll play our strongest lineup in both. Need 100% of the points from these poor sides before we play the likes of Spuds, United, and Everton again. We also have to hope Arse slips up in some of those games that they should be winning to give us a bit of room incase we fuck up and draw or lose a game we shouldn't.

Agree completely. I dream of having Modric in our side. He'd be immense.Isco to me actually does look effective out wide and being able to cut inside and attack. It's not his ideal position but as we've seen with Oscar, Mata, and Hazard, they can interchange and have real fluidity in midfield and are constantly switching around. He could also solve the "no Mata" problem where we look shit when he's rested or starts from the bench. Mata's workload could be reduced with Isco and we see how good Mata is when he's fresh. As you said, complete luxury signing, but one who could play a huge role for us.

I'm not so sure I buy into the reports saying that he'll go for that amount. If Isco himself said he wanted to move on I don't see why Malaga would put such a price on him that no one would touch him. I mean, they sold a player as good as Cazorla for under £20m and I know Isco is way younger, but Malaga needs the money.I think he'd go for about £25m or so if we negotiated Piazon as part of the deal. Don't think he's worth as much or even more than Hazard.

I wouldn't at all mind Isco, but that would be in ADDITION to bringing KdB back.

Yeah, me too. It wouldn't at all suprise me if our incompetent board did something like that. He reminds me a bit of Gerrard but with more technical ability. His crossing and passing is awesome and he can also dribble past players with ease and get out of trouble in tight spaces. He's just the type of player we need and if we just abandon him like we have so many other talents I'd be furious.

Now if only we could snag one of those powerhouse Belgian midfielders like Witsel or Fellaini. Would've loved to get Dembele. Such a silky and graceful player. The chemistry we'll have in our side with all of these Belgian's is gonna be sick! Just about all of our lineups in the near future will be from only 3 countries: Spain(Mata, Azpi), Brazil(Luiz, Ramires, Oscar, Piazon), and Belgium(Hazard, Lukaku, KdB, Courtois). Fine by me.
