  1. In practice the front three will likely be isolated from midfield with no one who can link midfield with attack either by passing or carrying the ball forward. We'd get easily penned back if they decide to press us high.
  2. Luiz loves scoring against this lot, hopefully he'll be able to add to his tally. Really hope JT starts. He's perfect to deal with Ibra while Cahill has had nightmares in the past when facing Ibra with England.
  3. If you have to, definitely give yup the right one. You basically don't need it!
  4. There are several body parts that I would gladly give up for us to win this match!
  5. I'll punch in the face anyone who says he didn't mean that backheel! Absolutely world-class assist.
  6. Didn't have much to deal with yesterday, but it was good to see him having a solid game with no mistakes (high bar, I know). But I was watching the post match analysis on Sky and it really made me laugh when they were discussing our CB options. There was no mention of any of Gary's horrendous recent mistakes, instead they actually said that Luiz's return has made him look 'nervous'!!
  7. Just saw the match, and although Kante was undoubtedly the MOTM for me, I thought Luiz wasn't far behind. In general since coming back he's been consistently one of our best players despite the inconsistency in the team's performances.
  8. Just stumbled across the league table....despite all that has been talked about regarding a crisis and sacking Conte and all that, we're just 3 points off the top of the table! I get we haven't had the toughest starting fixtures, but points are counted exactly the same against any opposition. For me, win against united next week and it's fantastic start to the campaign.
  9. Obviously the best performance of the season since it was the first I had to miss! Any ideas when downloads of the full match will be available?
  10. I don't know how betting works and I've never put a bet in my life, but I know that this is a ploy so that someone with power somewhere would make a lot of money...
  11. Thoughts with him and his family today. Was so gutted to read the news. Can't even begin to understand what he must be going through at the moment. May she rest in peace
  12. But will we stick to this system? We've only played it for a match and a half till now. I think it's a real issue that we've changed from 4-4-2, to 4-1-4-1 and now to 3-4-3 and it's still just October! Don't get me wrong, I'm happy to see us move away from 4-1-4-1 which imo has very glaring weaknesses, but each of those formations have completely different requirements. We need some tactical stability and for the players to start getting familiar with their roles or we won't get the best out of any formation.
  13. Never thought about it, but this just can't score and ugly goal, can he?
  14. Yeah, he's never even played outside of England.
  15. Sensational goal. Reminded me of Hazard's against United in the epic 2-2 draw in the FA cup in 2013. He's exceptionally good at that little movement of the ball just before he takes the shot.
  16. I'm one of his biggest critics, but I'll be the first to admit that the main reason we're still close to the top this season is his 'bullying' of smaller teams. Absolutely indispensable for us at the moment.
  17. Was very good AGAIN yesterday. This is what taking your chances looks like. Very happy for Vic. Shame about that hamstring, though. Hope he's fit after the break because he deserves to be in that XI against Leicester.
  18. Yup, you get the feeling that he definitely voted 'Yes' for Brexit
  19. Actually had a 'debate' with him about it and he went on to explain that they can be fans just not supporters who can only be from England and that only the opinions of supporters matter. Also, he 'debates' like an eight year old.
  20. Much needed 3 points. The fact that we grew into the system as the match went on fills me with hope. Just need for the attacking players to build better chemistry with each other so we can create more chances. Kante my motm, Costa a close second and Moses very good again. Happy days Also, clean sheet!
  21. Alonso' crossing is a breathe of fresh air.
