We signed another midfielder that likes to play in his position...

WOW spain are going nuts at the ref... Mata trying to stop them....

COME ON HONDURAS... WE WANT MATA BACK WE WANT MATA BACK.

Just looking for a clean sheet at the back and a coherant striking unit, that creates several chances... Being against Brighton we really should win, but the performance is still the main priority at the moment and if we do that the win should come... Torres also needs as much time as possible so surely HAS to start.

Could be the time to create a new account... , If anyone with no posts suddenly votes for you.... we will know...

His age, and fact he is that good for is age, would raise his price tag... Too early to say his true value yet, but its defiantely a good buy... And can't wait to see him.

We only have 11 players, i think Marin has been really good for us... But i am fairly certain he will not be a starter... Where will he play? He won't play in front of Hazard, or mata, and Oscar looks likely to play the middle, and therefore there are no more spots left... Not "skinny in the brain", just basic logic and mathmatics...

You sure, you wern't "accidently" aiming at those US marines...

can't wait to see him in a chelsea shirt.... shame he is not back for a while, but still.... WOW... Might have to buy the third kit now as well.

You wern't impressed in the last game? And welcome... But if you mean more than hulk, then i reject my comment, many apologies... forgot what thread i was in... lol.

I would assume its not otherwise this list is not that accurate...

like a danger... Hazard. Sounds better than, Hazaaarrr! Sounds like that uk advert for bombardier premium bitter...

oh yeah... Great goal all round.

skills...

belaurus have looked quite good in defence to be fair, but if brazil can break through once then belarus will have to attack and there should be much more space... I expect to see a better brazil in the second half, with oscar dropping a bit deeper maybe to link up with neymar and hulk etc.

He hasn't done anything wrong to have haters... It hasn't been as good a game as the previous one, but i don't think he has had a bad game... Tbf, the whole brazil team hasn't looked as good as they have previously...

I'll second that, always good posts, straight to the point...

Hondurus.

looking forward to seeing oscar play for brazil.. That should cheer everyone up a bit. I am not as concerned as many here, but definately think agaisnt brighton, we should get as full strength as possible, and try to give them at least 60 mins of real game time together, becuase some of our interplay just doesn't seem to be working.. Hazard is doing very well individually, but Lampard is the main person who is trying to spread the play atm, and we need a better connection between them. I will start to get worried if a week from now, and a week before the community shield we have a bad performance against brighton... Another week of training, back in english conditions, where the weather shouldn't be too hot, and hopefully, we can end our pre season with a bang. Also we are still missing our 4 from the olympics. In particular, Mata is a huge player for us and whilst oscar is young, if the alternative is Meireles then Oscar is someone we really need in the team... And thats not overhyping but it should be clear that Oscar is better on the ball and in his passing, which is something we have been lacking, and something that should be very good this season... And we know the qualities mata gives us...

Abramovich definately does what he wants, evident in the constant hiring and scaking of mangaers over the last 9 years...

I think if you are looking for a useful squad player, then 7 mil for demba ba, is very good, all things considered, better than any other striking options we have atm except torres, and with Lukaku going on loan, will do a good job as second choice striker... Rather that, than 40+ mil for cavani i think...

I agree, i think his best position with his range of passing has to be in the middle, but tbh i have only seen him play around 4 times before so am probably not the best to judge, but thats what it looks like to me anyway... Will be a great prospect for us wherever RDM puts him..

If you were going to do that line up i think it would be better to swap ramires with Mata, so Ram can play in his best position, though i think that is too attacking, and would require a lot of defensive work from mata and oscar...

Sorry, yeah i mean i would play Oscar ahead of ramires, but i would probably play Oscar at Cam and Hazard on the right if i was putting it in a formation, though as many has said to me, he plays there for brazil, which is good credentials, so may even play RW/RAM

I agree with Konohas, i think, providing everyone is fit, oscar has to play ahead of him if we play a 4-2-3-1.... It's a shame for one of our best players last season, but has to be done i think. One of our best box to box midfirlders, but it doesn't give us much width and isn't his best position by far.
