4-3-3 is just not cutting it anymore, we've looked better almost every time we switched to 4-2-3-1 . Sure we don't have the right players atm, but i think we can 'cope' with Kalou/Malouda on the left.

Meireles was good at Liverpool last season because they played him in a more forward role, but at Chelsea or even Portugal he's asked to play more defensive - which is quite stupid really since he doesn't like to get "stuck in" Now to your question, Lampard has been crap for most of this season, except for that period after everyone were saying he's done. He slows down everything and i think our midfield looks better without him there - with the exception of the last couple games, where the vast majority of the team have just been rubbish.

Better option than Lampard atm imo.

Not over till the fat lady sings but i am in a very good position

He needs to freaking start with 4-2-3-1 instead of changing to it every time we're losing.

Drogba and Torres are always in good positions to be slipped in but instead the midfielder with the ball just passes it sideways. I like Meireles at least he tries to get the ball to them, he just doesn't get enough power on it most times.

Would be nice for a change to see Mata/ST/Sturridge slipped in behind the defence by one of our midfielders....

Draw against Own Goals FC. I set-up for the draw so i'm pretty happy, plus i had a man sent off.

Even when the team is changed still the same shit lol.

Get the fuck in!!!

Sturridgeeeeeeeeeeeeee

Drogba will start on tuesday, that's almost a certainty. There are some players starting that i wanted to be rested, but this is also a big game for us, so i can understand why AVB is playing a strong team.

If Lukaku isn't even on the bench then maybe he's not fit? just a thought... and stupid line-up? smh.

Very good to hear that.

So was Kalou

Lmao, just need Jose to say he isn't leaving Madrid anytime soon

Awesome!

Nope, and i was referring to this quote: "There was a meeting of technical staff and players, nothing dramatic" But on the Sun "Players fight with AVB, IN FRONT OF ROMAN" lol.

Blown out of proportion by the media, as usual.

Going to bet on us getting a pen

Haha i actually felt sorry for him after reading this..

Most likely yes.

Fair enough, but the question is why did AVB select him to train with the first team ahead of the many players you and many others seem to think are on the same level or even better than him? He was going to get this oppurtunity sooner rather than later, before we bought him. I'm not calling for him to start, but surely 10-20 minutes in cup games can't be too much to ask?

Because they've been here longer means fuck all. Just saying. And if they really are as good, then why have they not gotten called up to the first team?
