Ivanovic is a beast!

No thats Kylian. Ethan is the youngest, he's wearing the Chelsea shirt, I think he's around 12-14. EDIT: Nevermind, I was talking about the link.

Ramires and Mikel midfield, placed 100€ Unibet, bet City WIN... I win.. yey

He's not realy explaining it. He is just saying, what if the leftback has the ball and the 10 decide to pressure, how are the others going to react.. etc.

He's talking about some training exercises he organised at the start of the season on how to pressure the opponent.

isn't he just trolling a bit? (Morgan)

Not 5 minutes, rather 1h ,but you can say that to everyone living in the south of Belgium.

Amongst others!

Ok, but it's time to let it go

I disagree, apart from Eto'o header, a cross behind the defence, we didn't create any chances. Howard tried to help us a bit too.

I can't see a team yet tbh. And what exactly did you see that was better than last year? All I see is the same slow buildup and sloppy passing.

Do you? Naysmith scored against us btw, a free transfer!

The buildup was way to slow. I don't understand why Mikel was on the pitch all of a sudden. He doesn't add anything if you want to play fast and dominant. Ramires is imo not able to play the role he's given. Way too sloppy in his passing and too panicking when in possession. Luiz's poor passing, using the long ball or just shooting it away like a headless chicken more than once is something I can't comprehend. You can't EVER play a long ball when playing how Chelsea plays and with the players who are on the pitch. The game left me frustrated and I didn't feel any improvements over last year when the team went through a bad period. Ivanovic on the flank is just asking for bad football. I can go on.

all streams down?

you sleep half a day? :tophat:

I realy like him and I like it how Chelsea bought him under "the radar". He has nice balance and a good passing game. He needs games and he'll be more confident in the other half of the pitch creating and taking chances I'm sure.

I can summarize it for you:

blasphemy!! xD

Oh man, loled so hard

Should he just shut up and pretend everything was good? If he felt like there was too much respect shown to the opponent or that there wasn't enough fighting spirit, isn't he allowed to say so? You're going to have standard interviews when players can't say what they feel anymore. I don't even look at the football interviews anymore because it's always the same prechewed bullshit they are telling us. If he speaks his mind, it means he's ready to try and improve that part of his game. I think it's a good thing coming from him because he looks complacent at times.

I'm not saying he didn't already have it in him or anything. I'm just saying, him asking the ball after moving away from the sideline, inbetween the lines is something he started doing more efficiently. Something I think is due to the boring positioning training they went trough in the past weeks. I've watched every game of him at Lille, he has been spectacular don't get me wrong, but he didn't have Mata or other worldclass players to play with. And if you think players don't evolve due to managers I think the"Lol" is on you. With a team like this you want pressure on the ball, you want to push forward, you want fast football. And Chelsea under Di Mateo was too slow and predictable. I don't say he wouldn't get there either, that's something we'll never know. I think also he's not a guy who wants to impose himself and he want to make his feet talk so it's a natural process to evolve and make himself more important game by game. I don't like Benitez that much either but you got to tip your hat for that manager being in the position and pressure he is.
