The thing about these transfers though is yes they could go either way but lets say he leaves and joins a bigger side or league if we try to get him after that the fee is way too much to gamble on .. If we could offload players like Ramires , Oscar and Willian and bring in a player like this and Scheiderlin I can only see it improving our team

This is his first season on form to be honest when looking at statistics but it was also is first season in europe coming over from Brazil he had to settle in.. I was speaking with my older brother who is an avid Serie A watcher and this is what he said of him quality pass technipue and long shooting direct and tricky, but he also feels he probably needs another season like this one before he makes the jump to a more competitive league

Anyone who watches Serie A could tell us more about this player other than what I've seen in youtube videos? what is is work rate like? watching the videos I see sometimes he chooses to shoot and or dribble a second too long instead of passing for better opportunity the only real downside to his game I've witnessed

Well it makes sense why we are looking to steal Varane from Madrid because Cahill is a man on borrowed time.. great when its a big strong CF but if the player is fast and/or technical struggles heavily

I agree. There was 3 mistakes on that play 1 was Iva not dealing with it playing it out for throw and taking extra touch 2 was weak pass back to close to centre of the net and 3 was Tibo not sticking his foot through the ball and launching it up field.. I also agree 100% on your subs because they keep launching the ball long for pace through the channels and Cahill and Terry clearly can't deal with that tactic

Bad error by Tibo but Ivan left that pass short.. Needs to be subbed play Cesar on right hand side to protect Cahill and our right flank

Ivanovic has been sooo poor for the first half

I really enjoy your posts

another stamp by liverpool player lets see if they get bans

I disagree he was put off by skrtel not intent in that

nice goal mata!

irony at its best

was on for 36 second slippy G my word

Does anyone else believe that the team is just tired due to lack of rotation?.. Like everyone has been looking very lethargic in recent weeks and due to this our results have suffered.. Jose needs to change things up in the next few league games play a few youngsters rest some of the stars give them a weekend off.. I feel the game accumulation is getting to us.. and I know a lot will say they are professionals and should be able to deal with the demands but our style of play will lead to extreme fatigue at the end of every season if we continue to play the high pressing game.. Even in recent weeks we haven't pressed as much as we did at the beginning of the season when we were very successful probably say since the newcastle game our pressing has been very hit and miss.. Here's to some fringe players playing against Hull and getting a result

The fake shot on the first goal completely fooled the keeper .. what a classy striker hope he gets a shot next season

Which has kinda happened no? I dunno the kid has class and if we can through a CB in our midfield and get overrun I'm sure by him in it wouldn't change the way this game was played

I thought I was the only one seeing this

That's on Jose cause Zouma has been a passenger this game Fabregas has been playing in there by himself our back four hold the ball longer when he presents himself as a passing option that's no good

Actually it does not but he's not the scapegoat for our performance today but hey its the cool thing to do so have a go

I think Zouma in midfield is hurting us.. He's good in the air but can't play with the ball at his feet for a CM we should have played RLC in the middle has the potential to influence a game

How are you really blaming Oscar for our failure to convert chances come off it

Take him off before someone kills him..

No shield in front of back four to be honest

anyone with MOTD commentary on the game?

tidy finish by him as well ... Happy for Thorgan
