That just shows how little you expect from Rafa. He does something completely ordinary like putting Luiz in midfield after going down to 10 men and you're praising it like it's tacitical ingenuity
Pellegrini is a good tactician but I can't help but smile when I think that the Manchester clubs will have Moyes and Pellegrini at the helm. Jose will eat them alive in mindgames
But Spurs will take it as a step up and try to improve the squad. If Arsenal gets 4th, they'll celebrate the Top 4 trophy and be happy and sign an obscure young Frenchman as their 'marquee' signing in the summer
What Spike said. Nobody will try to argue that he is a charming little fellow but he went down and made changes to the way he approached games. For such an aggressive player, to go a full season with just 1 yellow card is impressive no matter what.
This is unfair. He has mellowed in recent years. There was a ridiculously long stretch of games where he didn't even pick up a yellow card or something. This 'attitude' problem is not as big as a few years ago i feel edit: http://www.mirrorfootball.co.uk/news/The-new-angel-of-Manchester-United-Former-bad-boy-Wayne-Rooney-has-just-ONE-booking-this-season-article888892.html
I don't believe it. He's done it! Frank Lampard is All-time leading Chelsea goalscorer and that too at a time when we most needed it. Top 4 secured. A Cup to win. Pumped Up for the last week of the season! And how good is this picture btw
Why not try and put freekicks into the box? There is very little chance of scoring from 40 yards. Putting it into the box for Cahill, Branna, Luiz etc could see something come from it
