Magic Lamps

we are not used to playing this high tempo no wner our players fluff their lines when applying the finish

I do not think he is ready yet. he obviously is too good for the championship but in the premier league he had really hit and miss games like any inexperienced player has and I do not see him as a fundamentally changed player since then. But I think he is already better than Solanke and Borini ever were, so if one academy graduate striker will make it its him. Can not put all the burden on his shoulders tho. If we really can not register players in summer he should be our 2nd striker, i am just not sure who should be first of michy, giroud and higuain

batshuayi just nods that one in.

or simply Batshauyi. He would be on a hattrick already. With the combined creative force of Hazard, CHO and RLC we do not need a striker who is fancy in his hold up play but simply someone who puts chances away.

i mean the control in this tight space was class but an experienced striker should know the right decision there.

just head it ffs

we should stop wasting our breaks.

dont care. when hazard is in it like that there is no way we will not win vs west ham. Emerson and CHO's pace alone causes so many more problems for oppositions. They are running scared as soon as those two go on their bikes

higuain is so unlucky great pass from hazard

that really was a prime messi style goal. unbelievable. gets the ball in no mans land and dribbles past everyone. you just could not make this up. There are only a handful of player i have ever seen score such a goal at that level

thats an extra 10m you white cunts

omg wha tgoal

lol RLC is so big, clearances just hit him

jsut shoot ffs

agree with you guys, Sarri has miraculously come to senses with his lineup. watch us getting battered now^^ that might very well be our strongest lineup. not sure about jorginho.

It is not gonna happen. Even though it would be fun if the club were to sell him just to spite Cuntois. But Zidane rejected Kepa already once and has reinstated his beloved Keylor Navas. No way he will sanction to sign a third class goal keeper.

everything is falling into place for City once again... cant beleive how pep teams are always so lucky

OMG i watched that like a dozen times now still cant believe it. would have been a good goal-line block if he was a defender but why did he even try to tap that in with his lieft. he is right footed. just follow it thorugh with the right.... he should not even be in that position in the first place, could have been offisde and the ball was goal-bound anyway. that really is a miss morata would have been pround of

Well I strongly disagree. Apart from Messi the competition was just as good, football was different. Young Ronaldon was way better than the current old one, there were Barcas and Utds best ever teams we competed against. Sure hazarf is a big fish in a small pond here but Lamps was a big fish in a big pond. And he was clearly better than Kdb who can not even go a full season without injury or Scholes no questipn about that. Have you ever seen a video of all of Lamps assists? He could play them from all ranges left foot, right foot, outside of the boot no problem. Never seen a player as Versatile in his final pass. Lampards creativity is so underrated just because he outscores every other cm easily. I understand you are hurt by his city move as was i but he was let gone bc of fabregas so in hindsight i can understand him a bit. This should not stain his status as our greatest ever player tho. Esp with Hazard not being as loyal either thisbshozld not be an argument. As we are in the Abraham thread tho I suggest if you would like to continue this discussion please quote me in the Lampard thread.

Yeah we will see how much the ban changed..i would not mind winning fuck all a few years if it meant starting our youngsters. What i cant stand is seeing the same old average has been starting week in week out with talented young lads leaving the club in batallions. And Ampadu is 6', same as 80m cb hernandez but 18yo so still growing. When i was 18 i was not much taller, now i am about 6'4 so there is a chance he still might get a decent height.

Nice little article. But as long as we keep Sarri as a manager or do not at least lower our targets from top four to European places, he will rather flog the experienced players to death than blooding youngsters in at a pace they require to be satisfied and not leave the club.

They still got 6 games to play and the harder run in. They will win the title for sure if Lewandowski stays fit. That reveals their true vulnerability. They have decent strength in depth all over the pitch especially with signign Hernandez and Parvard. But without a proper successor or understudy to Lewandowski they will be in trouble. Without him they look a very average team. Sure Dortmund were mentally weaked and collapsed after the first goal but if DAhoud scores that first shot and Dortmund can counter it is a different story. We will see how the two teams react. I said to my brother who is a die-hard BVB fan that they only have a chance for the title if they go in for this game with a 4 point cushion. They did not and paid the price. But this Dormtund team is still in it playing with a completely inexperienced defense and wings. It is admirable how you can integrate youngsters this fast in the team and still successfull. It is really a shame for Reus tho, maybe the most gifted German player of his generation never in his life having won a big trophy.

Greatest player does not equate most skilfull player. Surely as for pure dribbling ability Hazard is probably our best ever player. But IMO greatest player is measured by achievements + individual record and Lampard beats him in both. Lampard in his peak was the the single best player in the world, only placed behind Ronaldinho bc of a goal that never was for BAlon d'Or. Hazard never reached that level. They are completely different players but Lampard was the best in his position for years, Hazard also a world class player never made it past top 5 in his position.

Bayern who were absolutely smashed by a far superior liverpool side still a country mile above the rest of Bundesliga. Really shows you how poor this league has become.
