It looked like half of them were playing for offside and the other half weren't. Complete disorganization and miscommunication.

The moment Benitez brought on Ba on like 92nd minute was the moment I lost all faith in him, what an absolute joke of a manager. Now I actually miss AVB's subs, although often they were baffling too, but at least he wasn't completely braindead.

You prefer them younger or older?

Did Drogs give up on learning Chinese? Can't blame him.

The commentator speculated that it was to provide better crosses from the wing. Almost worked too if Bertrand had scored from his cross.

Games like this are torture. You see your superstars worth millions and millions struggle against a team worth Torres' one week salary. Abysmal.

Only 2 hour difference here, the games are always at perfect times

Well he hasn't scored against Barcelona or won a corner that would get us back on the road to winning the Champions League, so no.

I think it's beyond doubt that this is the case. Something happened during the summer which made him fall out with the top hierarchy. I don't expect Rafa to have enough power to bring him back. I don't know if I even want him to, he sucks plus he hasn't played a single game with the new players, and his motivation is in great doubt. Leave Malouda where he is, I believe there are genuine reasons why he's getting the Bogarde treatment, it's highly unlikely two managers would completely overlook him if there weren't.

All good points, but I would like to add that I also hate him because he can't dribble like Ronaldinho used to, he can't finish like Fat Ronaldo used to, he can't constantly run through tight places like Messi, he can't defend like Maldini used to, he can't bend it like Beckham and he hasn't scored an overhead kick like the mighty bald ogre has. All in all I absolutely feel disgusted by him for not being the greatest player of all time.

This guy is still here?

"In most of the big teams in Europe, where the big players are, some of them think a bit more about themselves and less about the team. "It's important to choose not only the players but also their characters. In big teams, you sometimes make mistakes and get the wrong personalities. "But we have the right ones here and it's amazing to see how my players are fighting in every match. That's why no one has been able to beat us for nine matches." Probably the problem we have now

Lmao... I didn't see the game but this description painted the picture for me Genius subs

What is the problem with betting?

Disputable. Although even if Carlo pushed him to sign him, I don't think Roman minded much... he's the kind of player who represents Roman's power, but turned out to be another flop. I like to think that Torres was a unanimous signing by Carlo and Roman.

Lmao, the title says "Hazard on Arsenal" yet he says nothing about Arsenal whatsoever.

So the Modric saga is back on? Oh lord...

Top player, hasn't disappointed in the slightest. A rarity as he can defend and attack well.

I bet more than half the people posting RIP have no idea who he was

Lol, wasn't trying to be funny though. Sure he looks like George Clooney and all, but I'm just not sure how somebody can know that he trains hard everyday and has a brilliant influence on youngsters unless they are there to see him regularly. Maybe he's actually a silent cunt behind the scenes?

Fair enough, I can see where you're coming from. But at some point we need to start thinking about the present, not the future. Our last 2 season buys have been aimed at only for the future. I have a genuine concern of becoming a chaotic version of Arsenal - once threatening to dominate, then fading away into a team which serves as a platform for players to jump to better places. All we need for that downward spiral to kickstart is miss out on CL for one season and start being content with top 4 finishes season after season. I admit I know nothing about this Shaw guy, but if he is genuinely a talent with good work ethic and mentality and not just another English hype who will fade into obscurity, and if the price is right, then why not get him.

Yeah, a young inexperienced no mental strength player is exactly what we need now.

If the club wanted to shit on its reputation even more and erase every chance of getting a top full time manager, then sacking rafa would be the right choice.

They don't look young at all, what are you on about? Where did this picture come from anyway? I doubt Oscar would upload pictures of girls he'd just fucked, he doesn't seem like that kind of guy, plus he's married (I think? or at least has a girlfriend that much I remember). What's the legal age in England anyway? In Estonia it's 14.
