  1. What the fuck, goals have nothing to do with it, especially when talking about a defensive midfielder who's job isn't to score. I said he made a mistake, didn't I? He deserves his fair share of blame for being one of the links in the chain that led to a goal, but there were many links after him. His display was such, especially in the first half, that he avoided many more chances than he caused. Praises are due, without him we would have lost and I have no doubt in my mind about it.
  2. Piss off guys, Matic was fucking butch last night. That goal, despite his mistake, could have been avoided if Azpilicueta, Courtois and our defence in general had played better. The zone where he lost the ball was not exactly under his own goal. Matic was beast and my MOTM.
  3. Remy is an absolutely brilliant backup for Costa. I couldn't imagine a better backup to be honest. And most importantly - he has goals in him. You know whenever he's playing, there is a goal in him, just create the chance. From last year to this year, our striking options have improved the most BY FAR.
  4. I respect Willian a lot despite his limitations. He has assumed the responsibility of team's work horse and it is not an easy task. He's been asked to sacrifice himself for the team and he has responded, no bitching and moaning. Being entrusted this grueling role in Jose Mourinho's system is not something to spit at, he must be very well trusted by the man.
  5. You are a very intelligent lady. You keep opening up new perspectives to me and it's such a relief to know this little bit more. I noticed everybody's touch was heavy and slow, but Oscar was missing completely now that it has been brought up, I too can't remember him at all.
  6. Come on man, he's not a B2B player. If we draw analogies with FM then he's definitely a roaming/deep-lying playmaker. He is where the ball is, a box-to-box midfielder doesn't care about that.
  7. hahahaha that's brilliant, even the shirt looks beyond crap.
  8. That's why we go through our winter slumps.
  9. It was a close call though i thought. There was a replay in post-match analysis that showed the situation from Mourinho's angle and I think just about over half of the ball had crossed the line. Was close. The linesman was far so he was guessing.
  10. Shut up Schneiderlin >>>>>>>>>>>> Pogba obviously.
  11. I blame the fact he wasn't wearing a suit. Damnit Jose!
  12. People are saying there were no boos? Then I must have some kind of hearing impairment because I definitely heard a mix of booing and clapping when he came on. And I also heard faint boos every time he touched the ball at first.
  13. I'm sure the initial plan was to nick the win on counter-attacks and we nearly did had we not had one bad moment when we conceded, but as the game progressed I think it became clearer to the team that they don't simply have enough steam (and quality without costa and cesc) left to deal with a super-aggressive City. Hence the dramatic difference between 1st and 2nd half.... we dropped so low and abandoned attacking for good, which suggests that Jose understood we would be lucky to score another one, so it was better to keep the draw.
  14. You forgot the most important "empathy".
  15. Does anybody think he has overtaken Cahill for good? Jose played him in two consecutive massive cup and title deciding games, this is something I don't believe he does very lightly. In those games he always, and I mean ALWAYS goes for his definite starters. Rotation and resting is something you do prior to the big games, not during. So, to me, that strongly hints towards Zouma doing what Azpilicueta did to Cole.
  16. We're clueless in possession without Fabregas. It's quite baffling how sometimes we just can't seem to be able to keep hold of the ball no matter what, somebody always fucks up some way somehow. Oh well, 2nd half, different story hopefully (in our advantage).
  17. There should be shitloads of them, as I heard it's televised by a record number of tv networks. livetv.sx is now my go-to place when wiziwig closed, which is such a shame because none of the sites measure up to wizi.
  18. Might just have a look in there, thanks. Though I think if I'm gonna splash some cash (which I can't do too much unfortunately), then I might wait for the new YOKOHAMA (/norwegian ) shirt.
  19. It is lol, but it means a lot to me because it was my first ever gifted to me by my father (bless him for doing his best). I have some more decent ones but this is the only one with captain, leader, legend - and his name is the only one I intend to wear tonight. In the end it has the right badge on it so I couldn't care less. My most decent one is probably Torres', but no way am I gonna wear that. Recently sports direct opened a shop here in Tallinn, I'm long overdue in going hunting for some shirts (it's located in a shit place for me and is more expensive than the online store). But in time, don't worry, I will do justice to John mo'fockin TERRY.
