Ban the buck-toothed!!

Very impressed by Lukaku's speed, he's really quick for a big man. Why did we give him away on loan, he's better than Torres and Sturridge.

Why does Lampard doesn't receive the criticism that other players get? Toure ate him and Mikel for breakfast.

Ulises Davila is from Mexico isn't it? Also Mexico is actually in North America: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/North_America

I don't understand why people say we need to be cautious and play on the counter. It's a glorified friendly people, there's no need for a strict tactical aproach. The players should go out to enjoy themselves, nothing more.

Benny was good against the MLS team though.

You got it wrong my friend. Neither De Bruyne nor Sturridge nor Ramires are wingers. Mata is definitely not a winger. Thorgen at this point is an uncertainty, and Kakuta is probably in his way out and is also not a winger (he's more of a playmaker really). So by my account we only have Hazard (who for some reason doesn't want to play in the wing), Marin, Malouda and Benayoun (last two in the last year of their contracts). So the Moses buy makes a lot of sense as we need someone who can make the RW place his own. A true right winger. And the guy isn't bad as a goalscorer too. He played as a forward for Crystal Palace and scored some pretty predatory poacher style goals there.

Sturridge or maybe Benayoun.

Getting a little bit ahead of yourself maybe.

To be honest there's no much difference between that 4-3-3 and a 4-2-3-1 with Hazard-Mata-Marin up top and Ramires in double pivot. Also Mata isn't a CM.

Actually Meireles isn't that old, he's just rubbish.

That is just sad.

I agree, we're not defending properly. Is still early days though.

I agree, he needs to remember that we are playing two in midfield now. It's important that he maintains position.

You need to relax a little Kojo. No need to get all this agitated, it's only just a game. I disagree regarding Mikel, the guy is talented but he can be lackadaisical and erratic at times.

I liked the Mikel-Essien combo we did against PSG. I believe this pairing is good enough to boss most games in midfield.

We are doomed people, dooooomed I tell ya.

Sell Hazard!!!! Buy Drogba back!!!!

Hulk is the final piece of the puzzle. Getting him is a must. :blue scalf:

I'd like to see this too. I don't think he's going to start though as he already started the last two games and played something like an hour in both.

You're into something here. I believe Josh is of course capable of much more but he's now scared to f**k it up like the other night so he's trying to keep it as simple as posible. Maybe RDM had a word with him too. Either way I believe we should be patient with him as he's still very young and mistakes are going to abound. No need to put too much pressure into him.

On the contrary, he has shown he has good technique and he likes to pick his passes. Secondly he has shown that he's not a winger but a CM and that is where he should be played.

I don't understand, if that is the way you feel about Essien, why do you have him as your avatar?

I doubt it as you can't get a proper view of the game from that position, specially if you're in the 'yankees' bench.

Yeah, but where is the bench?
