Considering Azpi played against schalke, fact that players need rest; Mou should definately pick Luis for the game ahead of Azpi. Game would be more lively and Luis is still good defender, its not like we would be more vulnerable if Mou picked Luis over Azpi for sunland game...

Funny how everyone was wanking over BVB when they were good and are now laughing at them as they are in bottom. Fickle people... Anyway I was and am Chelsea fan by heart but I liked how BVB become so good with such low budget. And their football was amazing year ago, I never liked tikitaka anyway, but dortmund had efficient, fast, balanced football combined with physical and technical abilities. Seeing them rock bottom is kinda sad, they werent the same since Gotze and then Lewa left, but its weird to see them play THIS bad. Can the real bvb please stand up... But looking at this again, the reason for their bad results isnt just in Gotze and Lewa departure. Even the likes of Kagawa, Sahin, Schmelzer, Gundogan, Subotic, Hummels, Pizcek are nowhere near their top form, that said they had shitload of injuries and could be just me, but every time BVB player gets injured for more than month, he comes back fatter and physicaly nowhere near ready to play their high pressing football.

Still if we get complacent, they will catch us. Its too soon to call who will win title, but if we let it go from our hands, I will be quite pissed. 20 games to go, but fuck that, we have team and 6 point lead. Question is if we have mentality.

Im still uncertain by that ''we didnt want him anymore''. Im sure we offered him smaller fee and less games (legend, but understandable because of his age), and he refused it. He wanted money, he wanted play time ELSEWHERE instead of helping our team as much as he could. I like him for what he did to us, but proper legend stays loyal. Im sure if I was playing for Chelsea for past 10 years, earned shitload of money, and had my career built by Chelsea like Lamps, I couldnt have heart to join another rival team at age 36. You fucking retire around that age or help the team as much as you can. You accept lower payment because you would 100% work in the board sooner or later and got paid for that too. Im sure money wouldnt be reason to go away. He also won every fucking thing he could here. And this season, it was known that we are team to win title, so he doesnt have more chance to win it at City, than he would have here. Stop this bullshit around us not wanting him here anymore. Mou brought 36 yo Drogba who has world class Costa who plays ahead and he still accepted the job. Im sure Mou would offer Lamps some role here, smaller definately, with paycut, but honestly its what Lamps is nowdays. He couldnt play starter here anymore tbh. And Lamps said no. If he went to fucking spain, france, china, turkey or wherever, I would understand it. But not city and trying to play better for them than he did for us last season. Make whatever excuse to feel bit better about Lamps, but he will still play for city. Nedved played in fucking 2nd league and probably would do it for free. Lamps is another professional. He was top player for us, but he isnt chelsea fan. This is harsh, but I dare you tell me of a true chelsea fan who would go to play for city if he had chance to play for Chelsea?

Clean sheet lads clean sheet Just hope Mou rests few players, we looked tired as fuck. No movement at all, few created chances and individual errors.

How is Cesc in both arsenal teams? He was with Arsenal in 2011, but now he isnt there because he plays for us...And they had RVP, Nasri, fit Diaby etc... Besides Ozil is terrible and I cant see how could Ramsey in this season form play ahead of Cesc, Diaby and Song in 2011, when they were all in good form. Ramsey is overrated as fuck. I thought he got his shit together last season, but in fact it was just exception of good form back then, while now he returned to being average. Clichy was also better than Gibbs, Nasri was better than Cazorla. Their CBs though are better now.

Had a dream we won 7:0 against united and couldnt stop laughing...

I dont buy into this adidas rumour, but if true, then ok.

Reus would cost 25m. Messi would cost 200m and we would probably have to sell at least Hazard. Also I dont think Messi would come here to play Rw, do the hard work,track back and feed balls to Costa. I seriously hope we dont spend money on Messi, but invest it in good CB, Rw and back up striker after Drogba goes.

Just look at Gundogan, smeltzer, subotic who look like they had a mcdonalds diet for past year. Add Immobile, Grosskreutz, Ginter, Auba, Mkhitaryan who are nowhere near quality of Hummels, Kuba, Reus, Gotze and Lewa. Imo, Bvb made quite terrible transfer decisions over past two years. They should push for players like Eriksen, Kdb, Draxler, Martinez from Porto etc. And more importantly, they should monitor their injured players because like I said Gundogan and co look bit fat and slow...

Why the fuck do we need messi for? He is going to be 28/29 before he would come here and I wouldnt pay 200m for player of this age, no matter what. Why cant we stick to Hazard and have our own legend instead of going after barca one?

We are linked with Lucas Silva again... He matches Mou profile of player, but wre are kinda stacked in midfield and he needs to play regular football.

Nah their best after invincibles was one with Cesc, Nasri, Rvp,...they needed time and maybe a different manager and they would win PL in few years. Current one is still far from top 2.

Well he is better because he played more time there and is generaly becoming better player. But if he is given one season on RB again, he will be even better IMO. Afterall he plays RB for spain too.

Calculations are a bitch lets just wait what happens.

How come he didnt play tonight?

Still cant believe we got him from Benfica in january for 25m... I remember he was rated around 40m and we paid half less in traditionaly more expensive winter market. Unbelievable piece of bussiness.

FAPregas.

Obv we shouldnt overpay for average english players, but I hope we develop at least one player who will present our identity as english club. Despite Costa, Hazard etc can be loyal, I think its a whole new joy to see your own youth develop into top player and proudly wear (chelsea) shirt, being loyal and respcted like Terry for example. Have nothing against foreigners, but in 10 years we should at least have decent Terry replacement by now, but guess what, we dont have single english player/youth even in squad (bar Baker, but he didnt play single PL game). Kinda sad. Im sure if we put lot of trust and with Mou coaching, there must be english player out there who can become proper starter here. Lamps and Terry werent world class from beggining but they got a chance and trust and become world class. Nowdays we just buy buy if we need to instead of giving kids some chance. Price to get trophies and good results every year is high unfortunely...

The games he played at RB were great from him too. Equaly good in defence, but better going forward. Mou also brought Luis for quite some money. He sure thought Luis will play left and Azpi right sooner or later. He would never pay that big money for LB sub. But Luis didnt adjust yet and Iva got in top form. Not because Mou prefers Iva or wants Azpi on left...

Or Turan or Griezmann. Do people even know how much quality Turan is for Atletico? Better than Cuadrado or Draxler IMO, not as Reus though. I always thought we rush in attack bit too much sometimes, wasting chances. Turan is example of how not to fuck up counter attack and usualy makes proper decision, very allround. And most importantly he is consistent. Unlike Schurrle or Willian. And what I rate him most, he is the guy who wont give up. Ever. Like Vidal for Juve or Lamps in his best for us. Kind of player that fits Mou perfectly. Plus he is from very same system that we play, since Atletico has similar tactics and setup. Dunno, I get feeling since Turan is turkish and looks like fucking spartan, he isnt recognized as top winger. But he is one and also a very intelligent. More than any of our attackers, bar maybe Hazard but Hazard is not as experienced. Should Reus not come and Mou still looking for winger, Turan would be my pick.

He is doing brilliant and finaly got run where he can prove people wrong. Good player and maybe just maybe we will get him back once Luis is too old and Azpi gets back to RB. IF. But for now, I want Ryan to stay there because he is playing well and he would be benched here again, something he doesnt deserve. But kinda proves again, that we have little patience for our youth players and always need to buy more and more players when we already have decent ones here. Dunno, whenever he played for us he was more good than bad. Never realy excellent or stand out, but ffs, he got limited oportunities and even when given, his role was minimal. I love how he talks about our club, youth and Terry specificaly. I realy wish we had more youth english players in the club, but who would play important role too.

Longterm hopefuly english player. Nothing gets better to see english youth player to be captain of our club. Terry spoiled us, but I hope if we cant have many english players around, at least have english captain. That said, atm I dont see any english player having captain characteristics and football skill to get that role here. Maybe Cahill, but we will see. Baker, Stones, RLC, but those are all realy long shots.

If he got sold for 17m, he would be cerainly more rated than he is now. I think he isnt appreciated enough for what he does. Many CBs like Subotic, Hummels, Kompany make mistakes too, but they are all better rated. Cahill is maybe not on same level, but certainly not far. Considering defensive errors City and Bvb are doing this season, I dont see why people want their CBs.

Isnt Koscielny the guy who conceded most penalties in pl since 2010?He is good CB, but his timing is off time and time again.
