Matic is the best pure DM in the world, so he should be top 10 by your logic. Unless you were creating a best starting 11 in the world. But pure top 10 players, no way is Luis on there. I can't believe I'm arguing whether luis is top 10 in the WORLD! He's barely top 10 in Chelsea. I know he was great last year but its not like he was setting the world on fire before that. Luiz is barely top 10 in our team. He's gotten a few games here and hasn't been anything special either Eden Hazard Cesc Terry Tibo C. Cech Costa Terry Luis
lol, no he doesn't. But I wouldn't have an anger attack if i saw him in one. Regarding Lahm, its a matter of opinion, but Luis is not top 10 messi ronaldo Robben Yaya Toure Suarez Ibra Nuer Cesc Di Maria Eden H Bale are all better than Lahm imo
being top in your position doesn't make you top 10. the 2nd list of guys are all better than Luis. there are probably 3 more lists you can do that wont include Luis.
Couldn't do it to City, doubt we can do it to Madrid RIGHT NOW. But regardless of Rues, I'm pretty sure Jose will play defensively against most of the bigger clubs. I just want our guys to get to the point where they are able to be more effective like Atletico or Real (under Mourinho's 2nd year)
reduce the expectations and you'll be so much happier with eden. No player should be expected to be a future balon' dor winner (maybe 1 or 2) but Just look at Eden as a Iniesta hybrid and you'll realize goals aren't really that important to his game. His lack of scoring is the reason I like to see Schurrler starting game though. Only Costa as a goal threat is not ideal
I see your point. But even in the CL Madrid still played attacking football and I think that's partly due to the squad he had. Our squad this year will be better off attacking than defending. Going forward I think we should be more attacking focused in bigger games as it serves as our best chance to win.
do you guys see us ever playing like Madrid did under Jose? I don't remember them defending like we do against bigger clubs. Or are we gonna just get better and eventually play like Atletico?
I don't think we can be successful in the CL playing this defensive. I think the strength in this team is attacking. I can see us going for 0-0 draws away and and trying to win it at home. But mourinho has won it twice with lesser sqauds so Idk.
location is irrelevant to your love of chelsea. flying to a million games doesn't make one a better fan than anyone else. I personally think it's ok to call lampard a 'traitor', just like its ok to call Chelsea disloyal for letting him leave. I'm actually quite indefferent about all this. just pissed we didn't win
