Azpinator

My thighs are killing me, today I did 70kg barbell squats for the first time. I might need to get new pants though.. some of mine are getting too tight.

If only we still had Didier instead of this guy, if only. Goes through my mind every single time I watch him.

That's your opinion, end of discussion. Yeah because players like Draxler are what we're lacking right now!!

He played a similar role to Mata, so that's why you see Willian and Schurrle attacking more. Kevin provides good long passes and he really was doing what he was told to do. I think he did better than Schurrle overall. Schurrle who gets more minutes in other competitions.

Come on, after Azpi was subbed we continued with the worst back four possible and we played 120 mins with no striker. No surprises there.

He didn't "flop" today, he set up our only goal and had great positioning and passing all around.

I said that because he's younger than everyone else in the first team (except Kalas), and that Strootman is more ready for a tough season in the PL than him. Here's some logic for your delight:

The Van Ginkel transfer is the weirdest if you think about it. I would easily choose Strootman or Cabaye instead. *sigh*

Seriously how could anyone have a thing for this?

I'd consult a therapist.

It's like this forum needs a big gate with security guards... Can't they go to Troll Football or something?

Please create a topic for the Turkish fans or something.

What are you guys so happy about? It'll be painful watching Drogba against Cech, Lamps and JT!!

He has all the sense of humor you could ask for in a UEFA cunt.

@CHOULO19 hahahaha this is genius!

Ya hala!

Plus, Mata is becoming an Arsenal expert, someone had to fill in for Didier. Making your European debut in a CL final and winning it is unlucky. Maybe he ran out of luck after that game.

That would be hands down logical if City had actually scored 3+ goals in our net. You never know, mostly with Arsenal but facing Suarezpool could be a disaster.

It's a natural feeling ever since this happened:

The way I see it is that Hazard+Mata has been a great combo for us in the last year or so, great linkup and understanding between them.. so If each of them was playing without the other we'd struggle more in attack. Willian was great today, we looked composed with those 3 and if they continued playing together we probably would have scored more. Side note: the double season was exceptional, we can't score 103 goals in the league every fucking season. Even Real Madrid can't do it despite all that money.

Oh yes, let's blame Mata for all the problems that has ever existed at Chelsea Football Club or elsewhere! GENIUS! Really? You know, it could also be: Schwarzer doesnt play two matches and we concede 6 goals. Statistics can be a bitch sometimes Ashley doesnt play two matches and we concede 6 goals. Statistics can be a bitch sometimes Kalas doesnt play two matches and we concede 6 goals. Statistics can be a bitch sometimes De Bruyne doesnt play two matches and we concede 6 goals. Statistics can be a bitch sometimes Give me a break!

Double post.

But you must say that he can make some dreadful mistakes sometimes as well. We talk a lot about "squad depth" but what the hell are De Bruyne, Bertrand, Schwarzer, Kalas and Ashley doing right now? We have them just to cover up injuries? Bravo!

That's what you get when you play the same back 4 for too long, it's not about Luiz being better, it's about rotation and fatigue.
