What did Tevez's shirt message mean?

This game highlights our biggest weakness - the bottom 2 midfielders. The ref is a cretin.

Great I will be pleased if he's even remotely better than Malouda and develops more in 6 years than Kalou did. If he's an improvement over these 2, then it's an automatic win, considering the fee also. A low risk signing if you ask me. Yeah it may jeopardise his career, don't care if I'm honest Small signings like that are those who often make the difference between being good and even better. Big money signings come with a high floppage rate.

It's called having fluidity. Our recent problems have been that we have been too rigid in our formations, opposition knew exactly where our players were and could man mark them out of the game. Players didn't fancy drifting into space, except for Anelka, but he was not a playmaker. 2 seasons ago we had no players who could break away from their position and be effective, last season we had Mata and it instantly paid off, but he got tired from carrying all the load. Now we will have Oscar, who is even better in that respect because he can literally play everywhere. He is not man markable and that's a good thing. We can start out as 4-2-3-1, but with creative and intelligent players you can have as much fluidity as you want. You can change to 4-3-3 or even 4-4-2 if needed, instead of being predictable all the time. 4-2-3-1 is just a variation of 4-3-3, they are not that different and there will be multiple times in games where the formation will resemble the old 4-3-3. But this doesn't concern Moses, so I will drop it here.

Because we are not Arsenal and we need someone who can produce instantly, instead of hampering about future all the time.

This shows exactly why we need another winger. If one of them is unavailable, we will have no option but to play Ramires or Sturridge there, and we need Sturridge for CF because Lukaku is already gone. Anyway, people are using the term "park the bus" too loosely. There's a difference between playing cautious counter-attacking football and total defence. Total defence is what we did against Barca once we had the lead and against Bayern to lesser extent, we rarely park it in domestic competitions.

Even match fixing won't help liverpool

A season long campaign is something entirely else than being 3-1 or 3-0 down at half time and then coming out on top. Liverpool winning the league is more like oldham coming up from 10-0 deficit to real madrid. The guy is an idiot.

Yes, we have players who can play there, but not 7 wingers as you stated. Essien can play centre back, but you don't call him a centre back, do you? Ramires isn't a winger, Sturridge isn't a winger, Malouda isn't a footballer, Kakuta.. are you serious? Furthermore, we lack players who are comfortable playing on the right. As I understand, Moses is comfortable there.

We have only 1 true winger. Maybe 2 if you count hazard. 3 at a stretch with Mata. But 7? That's a bit random number.

Pretty sure he isn't. If you paid attention in the Seattle game, he always looked to move the ball to his right foot.

How so? For a right footed player it's much easier to cut inside and shoot from the left.

Added one more option - Spurs to qualify for Champions League

Added a few choices to the poll, choose which one is the unlikeliest. You can of course add something that in your opinion is more unlikely by posting here. I voted for the obvious - Liverpool to win the league.

I suppose Lampard wasn't confident either in his Ballon d'Or runner-up season. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Fy1NAzeiWiI Sometimes you're full of crap, cap, sorry. Rounding the goalkeeper in a 1 on 1 is the safest thing you can do. Chipping or anything else is much riskier. Lamps himself said it was the first time he ever rounded a goalie, because it was instincts of slotting it home safely.

Neymar joined us according to twitter. Won't believe until credible sources confirm it, althought there's not much to be skeptical about, I think it could well be true.

I googled aaf and found out it means Advanced Authoring Format. Now your just rambling nonsense.

What is there to believe in if you can't even differentiate between your and you're? Your a lost cause, sonn.

Nevertheless it would be embarrassing to lose to the Europa League champions. It's up to us to maintain CL's reputation, otherwise it would enforce the view from rival fans that we were fluke winners. And it's also rare to participate in it as European champions.

bullshit

Me and Henrique didn't get any votes from the staff.. Rebels

What is his history with injuries?

My expectations are simple and realistic imo. Win FIFA Club World Cup and UEFA Super Cup Finish in top 4 in the league Advance past Champions League group stage See improvement in performances by the end of the season Robbie to do well and avoid the sack in mid-season

Actually why not even bench Hazard? If we're going for a more defensive counter-attacking approach, then I wouldn't even play those two in one team. I would go for something like Marin - Mata - Ramires With Mata being subbed for Hazard in 2nd half, reasons for that being that Mata needs rest (he's not a 90 minute game player) and Hazard needs to be bedded in gradually, not be a starter automatically in every single game right off the bat. Hazard will then have the opportunity to run at tired legs. Plus being benched once in a while will do good for his complacency if he has any.
