  1. What a f*cking goal! We look amazing with Hazard on the pitch. He pulls everyone out of position.
  2. These commentators have to be having a laugh saying that is a penalty. lol...
  3. Crouch completely took Cahill out there and no call from the ref...
  4. Our wing backs have been shocking today. Willian has been dreadful two games running now. Get Hazard or Musonda on.
  5. Even while at Villa, JT says "our". <3 Also, given the fee, we're essentially at a net neutral position as far as spending goes this season. Not good enough for a club like us. Better go hard out and buy a second striker, or winger who can step into that middle role when needed.
  6. That is another thing I mentioned in pre season. He looked even more comfortable in the middle for me. His dribbling was top notch through the middle and he seemed to play more direct.
  7. Disagree. The one-two he created with Michy... The Ronaldo chop, that help him cut outside and send a runner through the middle. His goal... The ball over the top from Fabs... He turned his player inside out a few times and was greeted with more simply due to being that good. You're almost penalising him for being poised, bracing or squaring up and taking contact. He played smart. He played against team that had a lot of numbers behind the ball.
  8. A lot weren't impressed with his performance against the Spurs, but you could see the brute strength and ability to carry the ball, even if it wasn't his cleanest game. He is a weapon. Yaya Toure in his prime, plus more is his potential. I know it is pointless to dwell, but imagine having a player like KDB in front of Kante and Baka, and then having Hazard and Morata up front... All bases covered, and an extremely physical team.
  9. I think he started off a little bit in the wrong way in terms of physicality. He went down far too easily and now he is not getting any calls. More than half of what wasn't called yesterday were fouls, but he has set a standard with how easily he goes down so more are looked at as dubious. The referee yesterday was clearly incompetent, but Morata has plenty to work on.
  10. I think I'll blame the ref on this one. If he didn't have money on the game, I'd be shocked.
  11. No red for mouthing off ref? Of course. No double standard at all.
  12. That tackle is 90% the refs fault. You let niggly challenges like that go all game. There is a reason Morata is mouthing you off you prick.
  13. This ref is having a laugh. Everything is a foul for them.
  14. Can't believe he is staying on the ground pretending his face got hit. We have instant replay mate...
  15. Agreed. That little flick over the head of the defender he did, then got body checked wasn't called... I was sitting there in disbelief. It was almost an intentional take and the ref didn't call it...
  16. Cahill, Azpi and Willian have been absolute trash. Some of you will sit there and defend him given all the great performances he has put in for us, but Azpi has been shocking this whole season. Willian is useless this game for whatever reason. Bring on Hazard for him. And Fabs needs to sit on the bench the rest of the game. Getting overrun.
  17. I mentioned it when he came on last game as well. He will get there. He always does. Even with him being out of shape, he looked a different class against Leciester. You can tell immediately he is the best player on the pitch.
  18. Mindset is everything when it comes to two similar talents. Can definitely succeed in a big way where Cuadrado didn't.
  19. He was out of position several times. A lot of their better attacks came from his side. I wasn't too impressed and I was one who wanted him here. Best rb in the league? Sure after 1 game... Lol. Zappacosta had a better game in his first CL game. Best rb in the league. That how it works? Sent from my SM-G930F using Tapatalk
  20. He was pretty bad actually. Looked shocking defensively.
  21. After our Champions League game rumour has it that Conte has permanently dropped Morata to bench duties, and Michy will be starting most games from now. Reports are saying Conte is furious Morata refuses to use his feet.
  22. Would be stoked if we sent him over and possibly got Correa back along with a bunch of cash. They have some talented attacking options, so we may as well try to poach something off them. Obviously Griez would be the hardest to get over, but Correa is extremely talented and could quite easily turn out even better. Getting a young attacking gun would be an immense piece of work by the board.
  23. I have been impressed with him every time he has stepped on the pitch for us so far. At times he came on in bad situations with all the red cards we have gotten lately, and even when he was forced to play more centrally and defensively, he impressed. Obviously being a young player, I don't expect his end product to be up to scratch like some of the long standing players here, but he offers directness which someone like Willian at times can be frustrating with. He definitely has a spot in the team. Hope he gets his chance to shine tomorrow.
  24. It'd be interesting if we could get some kind of swap with Costa. I'm not his biggest fan, and I think he is a bit overrated, but him in the line up would be good to watch I think. Griezmann ------- Morata Hazard Alonso --- Baka--- Kante --- Moses Rudiger- ---- Luiz ------ Azpi Courtois Fix up the wingbacks, and I feel we'd be world class at every single position.
