  1. Kante, Chilwell, puli and Mendy are completely off their game...
  2. So thankful for the decline of Portuguese and Spanish footy. Their cheating and diving is unwatchable
  3. Stupid Kante, Mount was free as a fiddle
  4. Porto cheaters and divers pope still catholic
  5. Stupid ref corrupted again falling for their cheating sure mendy is not fasting? Lol
  6. Relieved to hear that. Charity is always a good idea. Always remember how Liverpool shat away the CL final 2018 partly due to fasting.
  7. Today is the first day of Ramadan. So if Mendy or Kante make stupid errors and have concentration issues we know its bc they have torched some brain cells by needlessly dedydrating themselves. Darwin would have rejoiced.
  8. This. The last we need is to go all out shopping and buy a host of centrebacks when there are scarcely any worldclass ones available. If we sold Zouma, we would only have 3 senior out and out centrebacks, one of which is 37 year old. I do not count Azpi cos he should not be operating all over the backline anymore.
  9. -----------------Mendy-------------- -----Zouma----Chris----Rudi------ CHO-----Kante----Jorginho---Emerson ----------Ziyech--------Werner--------- -----------------Tammy----------------- Rest as many players as possible. We still can win it with this team and hit them on the break with the bags of pace this lineup has. We have a deep squad and should take advantage of it. Azpi, Chilwell, Puli, Kai, Kovacic are extremely vital and should be saved at any rate. The rest I am not that picky.
  10. I agree. Strikers his age or older are still performing at very good level in every top league. Benzema, Messi, Suarez, Ronaldo, Cavani, Ibra, Lewa. If we can keep him fit and get one great season out of him it could make us title contenders. Reminds me of how ManUre signed RvP. Admittedly they signed him on the top of his game and maybe I am stuck in 2014 still thinking he is the best striker in the premier league. Obviously I'd rahte rhave signed him 10 years ago. But looking only at this season who has really stood out striker wise in PL? In the goalscoring charts no one has hit 20 goals yet and most guys up there have had like 10 pens. Only calvert lewin has a decent record of non-pen goals this season. Unlike some fantasy signings like Haaland, Agüero knows the league. Also he is maybe the best striker at creating goals on his own and scoring from half chances in big games the league has seen in the past few seasons. His fitness is obviously crucial and I have not seen him for weeks so no insight on this but I refuse to believe he has suddenly regressed this much that we should not be all over this. He complements our style of play well trying to move the ball swiftly on the ground. He reads space well and can pass. He also is not afraid to take a shot on from not-optimal positions. Pep has forcefully kept him small for 2 years now in order to push his crown prince Gabriel who is not even fit to tie Agüero's laces. But in CL Pep has paid the price for it and might well do so again in PL next season.
  11. Zouma has the same number of goals as "goalscoring midfielders" KDB and Pogba. Let that sink in
  12. I actually think he is just above average bc of the lack of intensity and consistency in his games. He is capable of sublime moments once in a while but those are the exception. He is also already 28 and still plays like the promsiing youngster he was 10 years ago.
  13. that's bc they are cheats and got gifted 11 pens and several other weird decisions
  14. Dafuq is wham doing. They have been playing out of their skins for weeks now. Every one of their bang average joes turns to world class all of a sudden
  15. If he can indeed stay fit (which is nigh on impossible) he will undoubtedly become a major factor for us again. When onn form probably our best player. Last season he carried us after the restart now we have quality alongside him. Was unlucky not to score vs Porto with that brilliant shot. In general very unlucky this season with his finishing but today he was spot on. I really like how he does not make fuzz and tries to place it like havertz but just puts his foot through it when he is in a good position. Also one of our few players who can hit a ball at full pace. My MOTM today because of how vital his goals were at the time they came and how he kept their right side pinned back all game.
  16. Great overall win. Pulisic was super clinical, Kai sadly not but it feels like this is our best attacking 3 on current form. i particularly liked how Puli’s first was almost identical to the one he scored in the same fixture last season. Similar position same end of the pitch, same technique
  17. Kais Finishing was terrible today apart from the goal
  18. Not even Gazza’s big guns can stop Kurts mighty bounce
  19. Finally a third and finally a goal for zouma again
  20. Can’t believe I am saying this but even fkin Jorginho struts around like a boss. huge gap in intensity levels between the teams
  21. Best 10mins of football for quite a while so far.
