Fabrepass

From Drogba, lampard, essien To Costa, Fabregas, Matic We've come a long way [emoji22]

I predicted we would win 3-1 because Mourinho will move into a more attacking style, our defense won't be as strong as last season. If you watched Mourinho's Madrid, the first half was just like that, fluid attack but poor defense. That Madrid though had an even crazier attack so they always had 5-2 scorelines. He also brought back courtois because he likes his keepers to grab balls in the air from corners and freekicks, which he is better than cech at now.So prepare for a lot of 3-1 scores from us.

Luis???

Starting Courtois is very important, because it shows our other loaned players that if you're good enough, you play for Chelsea. They will put in extra 10% effort to be acknowledged and get the shirt.

It's official on skysports news, courtois starts.

Thanks a lot. It's perfect

I can't still find it. If you have a direct link to the heat map of any match from last season, you can post it. I saw the one Daniel1980 posted above but it shows touches and not zones he likes occupying.

But anytime I search for "heat map" on their search bar I see no results found.

Today he'll have more space than he normally had last season, would be great to see him turn up and take advantage of fewer markers

Exactly. People have forgotten we changed our tactics because Mourinho feared we wouldn't make it into top four due to not being clinical enough. This season is about starting afresh rather than continuity which mancity have the advantage of. We will change tactics and it needs a month to settle, then I can judge the team fully.

City got 86points without aguero for half the season. With aguero fit, they will be stronger, no one can deny that. Last season in the title run-in thread, I predicted we needed 87points and it proved to be right. City have signed replacements for kompany(mangala) and jovetic is not out for a season like last season, Fernando is far better than Garcia/roswell. And City have the advantage of a continuous system from last year. We on the other hand need to blend fabregas and Costa into the team and we will change to a more attacking system from the one we used since December till may. If we blend in, and are still within touching distance of the top of the table by October, that would really stamp us as clear favorites. Until then, I'm not sure why everyone thinks we are bayern and mancity are Dortmund.

People forget city won the league with aguero and negredo missing half of the season. If aguero is fully fit this season, we will need 89points to clinch the title, that is no small feat

I hope that aguero has another injury laden season, because we would have it as tough as ever if he plays more than he did last season

Yaya toure has given two fantastic overhead passes, one lead to dzeko backheel and the other jovetic missed. Incredibly complete for an attacking cm

We will win 3-1

We need 27goals in all competitions. We need a 20goal striker in the league to land the title. The other 7goals in the Champions League and I'll call it a success

Jose is in love

Sorry, I totally didn't see this reply till now. He may not be as sound technically as we would like, but I value people with smart decision making on the pitch. And I think that for a box to box midfielder, he is smart compared to others in that position. We lacked that massively last season and would have won some matches if someone passed at the right time or shot at the right time. Muller is an example, his abilities is not supposed to put him ahead of Götze in Germany, but he is as intelligent as ever for the position he plays. Overall I think khedira's IQ overshadows his technical deficiencies.

Won't improve that wank attack I saw today. As long as they don't get Dimaria, they don't scare me
