  1. What a goal scored by Messi. great layoff from Suarez.
  2. lmfaooooooooo so happy we (USA) don't have him for EPL games anymore. Only gotta deal with him for UCL matches. Edit: https://twitter.com/bbcsporf/status/642769963837714432
  3. For some reason, football doesn't make me rage that much. Think TC has helped me calmed down over the years, like a realease valve. Definately feel empty tho that this EPL season has been reduced to watching City win the league. Aaaaaaaaaaand City just scored. Fuck this Shit!
  4. As bad as JM has been right now. I want us to stick with JM through this horrible stretch of performances. I dont want to give in to the 3rd season hooplah, and start the managerial circus again. I'd set Top 4 as the minimum requirement, and look for some inspiring performances in the UCL/FA Cup/COC. We'll show up in ATLEAST one competition I feel. Maybe i'm missing the forest for the trees. Not even sure there's a perfect solution to this problem.
  5. Im a NY Jets fan, so im used to dissapointment. (Also support the Ravens.)NBA is a month and a half away... Gonna be a looooooong wait.
  6. I gotchu fam. http://espn.go.com/nfl/ This should giv u everything you need.
  7. Yeah should be within 10-15 mins of the match ending.
  8. Wrong imo. JM obviously wouldn't have them play their possession based football like Blanc does, but that team could easily transform into a lethal counter-attacking team. Just like his 2011/2012 Real Madrid team. That 2011 Madrid team and current PSG side have a lot of similarities. Verrati-Modric. Di maria-Di Maria (lol), Cavani-Benzema. Marcelo-Maxwell. Lavezzi-Callejon. Ramos-Luiz. I know we haven't seen JM's best football for ages now, (not even trying to refuting that) but I haven't lost faith that he can have us playing properly for an extended period of time just yet.
  9. Yes! Our Profits weren't touched!! Raises all around!
  10. I think that's why we were after Stones. To help usher the new CB partnership for years to come. I've honestly stopped trying to figure out if JM tells Azpi to stay back and cover for JT. Some games i see Azpi never cross the half-way line, other games he ventures out to join the attack. Think it depends on opposition. But like @KellzFresh said the main problem is our pressing. We're no longer doing it effectively. Idk how, but JM and this coaching staff was able to get our front 4 attackers to press effectively at times while maintaining a low block. It workd for a little while but not anymore. The lack of athletic, pacy defenders, who can play a high-line, to help compressthe the midfield HAS to be addressed.
  11. Have you not seen Ivanovic's 'lemme hit the first defender' crosses? Then we have an inverted RB at LB which doesn't help our wing-play at all. Azpi actually has decent crosses in him, but as long as he's forced to play LB, i can't/won't blame him. Another reason i want Baba to be trusted and starting as soon as Everton away. Let's get a natural Left-footed LB to hopefully form a partnership with Hazard on the left. Please Jose!
  12. It's so lazy to suggest that JM has lost the dressing room. Only once in his career has that happened. What happened when he left Chelsea? Drogba, JT, Essien, and Lamps were crying/shell-shocked. Players were even texting him while he was at Inter! When he left Inter, JM and Materazzi crying together, Sneijder hails him as best manager ever. Ibrahimovic after only one season with him claiming he'd die for him. Madrid happens, but even Xabi Alonso and Fiorentinon Perez loved him. He may have beef with the board, but not the players. Dont buy it for one minute. Whose the Ronaldo/Casillas/Pepe at Chelsea? No one. Hazard imo comes across as too aloof to be concered with club politics. Costa can barely speak english, and loves JM. Cesc Fabregas literally owes JM for revitalizing his career, making him a vocal point again after he was chased out of Barca. Thibo? JM had no qualms benching our 11-year Servant. Oscar? Look at what happened to KDB and Mata. Enough said. Ivan? Plays like shit, gets promoted to Vice-Captain/Captain.
  13. Word Up. Completely sabotaging our play in midfield atm. But...if this is how bad he's gonna be for the first half of this season......how will he perform once the second half arrives.....
  14. Amen. I honestly don't understand why JM is incapable of keeping some game-changers on the bench. Just seen we're giving away Moses on loan. I'd been ok with that but i know Kenedy and Traore won't get the light of day in the team. They won't come on when we're winning 3-0 in some match, maybe one of them will get 10 mins on Academy Day Matchday 6 in the UCL.
  15. I don't agree with that. Let's look at our major misses in the tranfer market since JM has arrived. Schurrle-18M, Salah-11M, Cuadrado-27M, Luis-15M. These are players that came in with sizeable expectations and JM couldn't make it work. His better buys. Zouma-12M, Matic-21M, Willian-30M, Fabregas-26M, Cosa-32M, Remy-10M. That's not including the one's we've made this season. 6/10 Isn't great, but we sold off Luis and Schurrle for same/greater price. And Salah will go for a hefty sum im certain. So no, i highly doubt that was the reason. I think the board were happy with that proft, and thought they could skimp on investing even more into the squad and we are paying the consequences as a result. (Not saying the board are responsible for this horrific start though, that falls on JM)
  16. The most clinical finisher in our squad is not trusted when we absolutely NEEDED a goal. I always loved you Remy, will understand if you leave us. #RemyCrimes.
