Don't know much about this guy but I do agree that it is quite worrying how different as an attacking force we are without Mata. Somebody needs to step up.
'Mou's preference for Benzema' isn't by mistake. It's because Higuain isn't as clinical as he was once, yea he is a class striker but Benzema delivers in the big games when called upon. Higuain wastes too many chances, you only have to look at RM's season last year to see it happening.
Could say a lot about BA's excellent debut and for the simple fact that he has made a million and one Chelsea fans happy today, I gave him my vote. Having said that today's game belonged to Frank for reaching the 193 goals landmark, the second highest goalscorer in Chelsea history and all from midfield. Legendary status forever more.
Fantastic début BA. It's amazing how much difference a striker can make when they make runs of the shoulders of defenders. I was watching Premier League Years 10/11 last night and it was showing Torres doing the same for Liverpool and he was running at the same pace as he does now, God knows why he doesn't do it any more. Anyway now BA should be our starting striker without a shadow of a doubt for every game possible until the end of the season. If we do then maybe, just maybe we might grab some trophies at the end of the season.
Everybody over analyzing football again. Just give the striker the ball and he should put it in the net weather he takes 10,000 touches or 2. A strikers job is to score, end of, something both Falcao and Lewandowski do very well.
Sorry Hutcho but this post is far too serious and actually about BA. Can't you see the title of the thread says, 'Enter and abuse Torres then make a shocking song up with BA's name in it on the way out' ??
I agree mate. Use to think Higuain was an absolute beast and prayed to the God of Blue to bring him to The Bridge but after watching a fair few of his performances for RM, I was left unimpressed. He isn't as prolific as he was once and does need too many chances to score especially in big games. Having said that though, he is one cool cat and you never know how he could react to a new start at the Champions of Europe (I will refer to us as that for as long as i live). Is there actually any substance to the rumours at all?
I think it's more to do with Roman simply not giving a shit, either that or his advisors are just out and out sharks who understand the power of the pound note before they see the power of the player.
To be totally honest mate, I wouldn't travel to St Mary's on the off chance you might grab a ticket outside. Keep your eyes peeled on here because fans often advertise spare tickets. Other than that I wouldn't know what to suggest!
I put my reaction to that penalty on here I think the Admins would ban me for indecent exposure! It involved a lot of lube, sky + remote and a box of cleanex!
Oscar has gone of the boil a little bit with his contribution on the ball but that was to be expected after such a great start for us in all competative competitions. We can all agree that he is obviously an immense talent and after a few more sessions in gym I reckon we can expect a beast for next season.
