Is it just me or did his work rate dropped bit. I remember at the beggining of season he was chasing the ball like mad, but he is just jogging around recently. Sure he isnt lazy or whatever but he was putting more pressure on defenders in first few months. Actualy his whole participation in play dropped slightly. I remember he wanted the ball all the time in beggining, he was chasing like mad, dribbling with it and passing more. Maybe its just me or change of our setup, but he is much less involved in play these day.

We should play Willian/Cuadrado as Rb and Iva as winger to go completely against footballing logic and piss "football experts".

If we get Tielemans...oh if only...

Brilliant player again. Him at full strenght, Matic back and both GKs in top form, we should be able to do well against PSG. We missed that energy and pace in midfield, now with Rambo, we have that. And he is born to play well in bigger games too. I would seriously consider playing Rambo-Matic-Cesc

He is less visible because last year he was the one connecting midfield to attack, now thats Cescs role. His role is something like track back, make simple passes etc nowdays...and if he is invisible it doesnt mean he is not playing well.

He could of been great. But injuries ruined him.

That tackle was quite weak actualy IMO. While he isnt injury prone, he gets injured after almost every tackle these days. Not sure how would he cope in PL if he gets fauled as much as Hazard. He would probably spend more time in hospital than on pitch. While I have different criterias for injury prone, for example injury prone for me is someone who gets injured constantly and imediately after recovering previous injury by injuring himself without any contact from others (or very mild one). In Reus case he is very unlucky with these heavy challanges (althrough as I said, recent one wasnt such a tackle at all), but injury prone or not, he is injured alot nowdays and thats something to adress before we would consider buying him.

West ham was shit for some games now. I think its time they put world class performance against us and then continue being average.

From every thing there is something positive. If we didnt lose 5:3 against spurs, Zouma wouldnt get as many chances.

They were good, i know that for few years. But not great.

Typical english overhyped talent. Maybe he proves me wrong by summer 2016 with two good seasons under his belt, but I doubt it. In spain you have such players in Negredo, soldado, llorente, aduriz,....every year.

Win win win. Even if ugly 1:0, just get back to 8 points advantage so that players can focus on psg 100%.

When you look at some posts people just try to show him like he is not as good as he actualy is because we shipped him away. They will say he isnt good instead of accepting fact that we MIGHT make mistake. IMO he needs regular play time, he wont ever succeed here though, but is good player that will play for one of better teams in europe in future.

Pardew doing brilliant with Palace so far. I lost my betting ticket thanks to him

Its just funny people try to explain everyone Salah is still shit, only because he left us and they were saying he should be sold, but now Salah is slowly proving them wrong. He plays better there than I thought, but I wont bother much until he puts such performances here.

Begovic would be great. Or Ruddy as he is homegrown.

In his first spell here, first trophy was carling cup. Second was PL title. Looks like the history repeats :blue scalf:

Great that he got his role in cup win. It will boost his confidence and experience for next season... He looks very promising, more than I expected. One or two more years with Terry and jose will do world of good for him.

Nah I wasnt tlking about today game, but overall...while its completely normal he needs time to adjust and lot moree games, someone you spend 30m on has certain level of expectations.

Where is the guy that was telling me Zouma-Ramires was never going to be CM pair?

While its waaay too soon to say anything, I hoped for slightly more from Juan so far. 30m is 30m after all.

Yeeesssss! Not too happy with performance, but trophy is trophy! First of many. :blue scalf: :blue scalf: :blue scalf: City losing, its double win for us today. Great day.

Our team has to be one of worst ball playing top teams in europe. No tempo, no control, no hold up under pressure, no creativity in attack, no link up, no runs in open spaces (and players with vision to spot them). We are bang shit in attack. But its final so I accept it. However making spurs look world class, and our poor form since january, Im not impressed at all. Cesc having another brilliant game I see...I wonder how long will people protect him. And finaly, we beaten this spurs team 3:0 not long ago. It means we can, but it seems our tactics and mentality are simply fucked up. No balls and no team action, while individualy we are crap, except for hazard who is not at best today either. Lucky we lead at least.

picture of the day: :D
