  1. Alonso has been very shaky despite a decent few mins at the end.
  2. How is Muller completely free. All CBs ball watching
  3. He's having to defend a lot today. Not looking good.
  4. Everytime Alonso has tried to play his way out, he's just run into trouble. Barkley and Alonso down the left need to wake up
  5. Giroud has their number. Bringing most balls down so far
  6. Off we go. Super nervous everytime Muller or Lewandowski have the ball in shooting range. This will be a long 90 mins
  7. Hope the Bridge is rocking tonight. Like Napoli in 12, PSG in 14. Need a European big game feel to kick in early and differentiate this from any other league game.
  8. Won't happen but Hazard and Ziyech together would be magic
  9. Use Mount like Fergie used Ji Sung Park. The 'loyal soldier' for pressing in bigger games.
  10. I disagree. I think this is the game where Kepa has to return. Caballero's decision making is very suspect. It is a disaster waiting to happen I think. The team won vs Spurs but his decision to rush out when Bergwijn was through and his positioning for the own goal were both shaky in a game where Spurs had few chances. In the game vs Bayern, the keeper will surely be busier
  11. United were so poor but Foster's gifted them a lead
  12. I cant believe we made this United side look like world beaters thrice this season
  13. Good start to the weekend. Many did well. Pretty much spot on selection too. Against a weak Spurs side but I'll take it. Bring on Bayern!
  14. I am really scared about Caballero's decision making. Seems to be rushing out for everything
  15. That loss feels so stupid even now
  16. I am still wary. We've had plenty of bright starts before fading. Leicester, City, etc come to mind. Need to keep this intensity up
  17. This is the worst sort of game. Spurs are parking it and we are jittery when we lose the ball
  18. Tomori is not even on the bench. Kind of surprised by his repeated omission. Zouma is ahead of him in the order?
  19. As much as other managers would manage the current situation better, it is important to remember we got ourselves into a good position because of Lampard's faith in the youth and the fact he began using them right away at the start of the season.. The youngsters' inexperience has showed, a bit too much at times, but I would be okay missing out on top 4 with a number of young players blooded in the first team than secure top 4 with the likes of Luiz, Willian, Pedro, Alonso as starting players.
  20. @Henrique Mount, Abraham, Tomori, Reece James, Hudson Odoi. Out of these - Abraham, James, and CHO are starting quality players. Tomori has had impressive performances, and even Mount initially. I don't think they are ultra hyped players at all. Also, I can't imagine sitting at 4th this season with any other manager. If it was Sarri or Allegri or Enrique in charge, we would be starting the season with Pedro Willian and Batshuayi as the attackers, would not see Abraham and James get as much action as they are getting. The team has tailed off pretty shockingly over the last couple of months but I really doubt Lampard was a short term appointment and he will stay on another year even if the team fails to make top 4
