Danny Rose "I do not always try to overrun opposite defenders, but when I do I make sure they are faster and stronger than me"

now that was lucky. Oscar once again wasteful. Commentator "poor touch by Oscar - suprising" - No not really
-
I'd give so much to have Drogba back for this game. We are going to Wembley without its king. I feel we really need some luck and individual brilliance from one of our more physical players like Lampard or Ba, cos Mata, Hazard, Oscar will be subdued due to their lack of size.

lol. what does Melvin Platje do on this list? Honestly, I'd have Torres over him. But true excpet of Falcao, Cavani, Messi, ronaldo, suarez it is not a season of prolific big name strikers.

Raphael Honigstein, a reliable German Premier League journalist tweeted it will be 20m€ for Schürrle + Kevin de Bruyne as a season long loan without buying option. Sounds like nice business to me, even though 20m is a little too much for Schürrle. he is fine, but not class yet. He has a bit of acceleration but no real speed just like Hazard. The good thing about him is his versatility. he probably is an inside forward most of all, but can also play second striker and right wing and if necessary certainly an option as lone striker. He is similar to sturridge, but more intelligent&mature, good attitude, better decisions probably not as talented and pacy. I feel de Bruyne needs another year to be ready for us, he has been rather inconsistent for Werder even though prolific, but we do not need a no.10 or an offensive no 8 like him here right now. When we want to continue with that bloody 4-2-3-1 he should rather be converted into a DLP, for which he has not the experience yet. As a no.10 he will never make it here anyway There is no way we will ever get rid of Marin. His injuries have hurt him more than expected and he has yet to find his form. It has always been a gamble bu he was not overly expensive so let's wait. Considering we will probably not be able to sell him, he will have 4 more years to prove himself. His best is yet to come. In his first season in the BuLi he was the best young player and had better dribbling stats than Franck Ribery and Arjen Robben. he cost the same as Yossi Benayoun, who actually is a joke but so much younger more talented and can still come good

good performance, okay result but much less than we deserved. We completely cominated them but our counters and finishing were once again wasteful as they were against Utd. They did not really had any chance and the penalty was a fluke. This could easily have been 5-0 to us. Now we still have to put a decent squad on in Moscow to ensure we do not get beaten 2-0 there. Nonetheless I think we are through. The opponents are decent but far from frightening. I'd like to get Basel, who have a chance to qualify now Bale is injured ( but i still think Tottenham go through) or Fenerbahce
-
Hope we give that Moussolini-loving di Cuntio the welcome he deserves. We can play the 2nd team in Moscow and the first in our next two league games.

lol shrugs are about the most useless exercise ever. deadlift has nothing to do with traps. Deadlift makes you bigger overall, it is THE compound lift. Everyone who can do deadlifts should do them. It is simply one of the most natural and basic movement of the human bio mechanism I've been around bb scene, forums, websites&stuff for almost 2 years + I have been competitive sprinter,too. Sprint + deadlifts are totally different. You can't compare that. You can workt with progressive overload in a sprint workout, which is THE basic principle in bb. Some people might get bigger by sprint but that is rather the exception than the rule. When I started sprinting not even my quads&hams got any bigger. They did when i started with squat and leg press. Deadlifts are also great cos deadlift+ only bench press, squat and maybe also pull up, schoulder press and bent over row are everything you have to do to work your entire body effectively. Forget your shrugs∨ other isolation bullshit.

Seems it's become a fashion that supporters of our opponents join the forum and spam around.

England has the 5th strongest pool or so which surely should be enough to easily qualify and reach the quarter finals of a WC. Also in terms of individuals only England regularly fielded some of the strongest national teams ever 2004-2010 The problem is not the quality but the selection and the fatigue they got due to their schedule. A german international has on average 12 games fewer per season. That makes a huge difference. Germany surely does not have the best team top to bottom. We got literally no strikers except of an ageing Klose and an average Gomez. Özil is fine, we got a lot of talents and young players who are okay tho nothing more, but we do not have one single player with pace, not a single winger and only overrated or average fullbacks. Neuer is also overrated, much worse than Hart. Schweinsteiger is probably the most overrated player of all times. he as any German players suck in big games. I mean the really crucial ones. Once they get 1-0 down they are only hoofing the ball around in panic. Since Ballack was chased out of the NT, Germany has not seen a true leader again. No idea what is your problem with Lampard or since when you watch football, but if one has seen the Lampard who was a top 10 player of the world 2004-2010 one knows what a midfield master is.
-
thx tho. IMO deadlifts are necessary at some point. they are the exercise that stress the most muscles. Squats&deadlifts are unevitable to get bigger, cos u can move big weights by using you whole back&leg. I've gone a certain distance without doing them too systematically but I am planning to do a a WKM workout to get the most out of my 2nd year in bb and want to get that sorted out. I'm gonna try to find a good physio
-
I actually do not get why I actually do not get why FA Cup is so important. We already won it sooo often but won't win it this season cos we do not stand a chance against City. We should rather win the Euroe league where we are the best club left and have a great chance of completing the european quadruple.
-
the higher the weight the greater the pain, usually when i bend my back. each once a week i do a split of two workouts each every 3 days, and the end each is either deadlift or squat i have the pain always i do the exercises it is symetrical i do a 5min ab at the end of every workout Yes i also got a little arch in my back but it has never been a problem and physios in germany are regularly overpaid twaddler and my smartphone usually can do a better diagnosis.

That happens when u trust Steve G instead of Lamps. I know Hodgson is former liverpool and in general in England everyone loves the Scousers but face it Liverpool is only a mid-table team with predominantly average players. Why should the boss of that bunch of idiots, who wins about 30% of his games be the leader of players who have not only outscored him every year, won 10 times more titles and actually know how to lead a team to titles? I know Lamps is older and Gerrard runs more but just look at how much better lamps is technically, how much better his finishing is. lamps's corners are better, his through-balls are more precise, Lamps can control a midfield. he might not be the player he once was but Gerrard has declined more and against a side so average as Montenegro Lamps would not have had any problems. Montenegro's defending in the 1st half was awful allowing Gerrard so much space but he could do nothing with the ball. Such an inconsistent, ineffective player the same as Milner, Welbeck or Cleverley. Actually most of England's problems are self-constructed. This country has one of the best pool of players to choose from, the strongest league in the world with English players playing major roles in each of the top teams. Yet they always play some shitty scousers and overrated ManCs. They overload their teams schedule with a useless competition called carling cup and a ridiculous replay system. And still everyone cries when they as always exit an international tournament in the first knock-out round. Also they like to completely exclude some of their players (Terry as so often, Lamps today, Young who surely is a much better winger than milner or Welbeck) . Our German national team usually beats you in important matches with average tactics and a bunch of overrated fair weather players only because we are fresher. We can only dream of midfield master like Lamps, a striker like Rooney or a speeder like Walcott, such a depth of classy fullbacks and wingers. A team of ---------------Hart--------- Walker--Terry-Cahill-Cole/Baines ---------------Parker--------------- -------Wilshere----Lampard-------- Walcott------Rooney-------Young minues the bloody Carling Cup matches and with some tactics that are not from the Stone Age could beat anyone.

It's not. If i only use 50kg I can fully concentrate on my form but it still causes pain. Btw as you live in the US u probably mean 400lbs which is only 180kg. (I recommend to use the metric system in general) The leg press at my gym only goes to 325kg (which is 718lbs). After this got too easy for me I started with 100kgs (squats. For my legs it was no problem, but my form was not correct (knees extending over toes), so I decreased it to 50kg, so I could concentrate on my form but it still does not feel good.
-
i did not generalize. it is simply highly probable that if u are black and a good sprinter u are also a good leaper. Lukaku is a good sprinter. I do not argue that Carroll is the better header, but i doubt he is the better leaper. It is also common knowledge that Western and Central African genepool is superior to other regional genepools in terms of sprint and even more in terms of leap.
-
Hey guys, I got a problem with my squat and deadlift. Everytime I do it, no matter how much I decrease the weight, my lower back hurts as hell the following day. I've gone so far to only squat&lift 50kgs which is less than a sixth of the weight I do on the leg press. During the exercise there is no problem, I just feel it the next day. Btw. the doctors in Germany are rather useless.
-
I don't think so. Carroll might be the better header of the ball cos his timing and technique are better, but I am pretty sure Lukaku has at least an equal vertical leap. He can do a sommersault which requires a good leap for such a big guy and he is also way faster than Carrol. There might be white men that are explosive and can't jump becaue of they do not have the same density of ft-fibres around the knee that they got in the quads/hams. Black people do not have that dysbalance, cos they do not only got more ft-fibres overall in general but those are also more consistently spread over the whole body.
-
Isn't Lewis Carroll only a loanee? Maybe Bony is aimed to be his replacement. Btw I do not get why lukaku is less of an aerial threat than Carroll. They are the same height + white men can't jump. It is rather a matter of playing style, WBA play more of a passing game, whereas we all know what Allardyce's teams play like.

8. Pride. Mourinho's display as self-confident arrogant boss just fits the traditional Chelsea attitude and he knows that. Our time 2004-2007 was an extraordinary manager leading an extraordinary prject to great success which was a kick in the face of the established elite as Arsenal, ManU, Barca and Bayern. the media, most of england, all of Germany and literally thewhole football world hated us, envying our success. That made us get closer together and behind our manager, which is probably one of the reasons why we are Mou's favourite club. We could give a shit about the world cos we were better than them all. With him that swagger will return to Chelsea.
-
Yilmaz is on fire, but he is so similar to Ba and Lukaku in stature and playing style.
-
Demanded his signing 3 years ago, when he left Barca, but City paid him higher wages. he is a mercenary no more than that and he will perform if we pay him enough, but i do not think he is worth it.
-
LOL. Zouma's first name is "Kurt", which is about THE name for 80+ years old Germans. 2ndly I would strongly advise against buying players like this Armenian guy from Sakthar. One of our biggest mistakes has been buying squad players instead of promoting our own youth player. I mean what does this guy do KDB does not. The Belgian is even more versatile
-
Still Torres has not done anything of value since january 2011 and has been declining since 2010.

what an inadequate captain lescott is. good it is only san marino.
