-Kaplan-

Why fix something that's not broken? I remember earlier this season he said 3-4-3 wasn't even his first or second option, but he could have easily changed his mind after seei g how it has worked out. Also, does anyone know how often he suffled his team/formation at Juve when he was in more competitions?

I agree. Isn't she the one who's behind the whole Oscar to China deal?

People only use his World Cup and Ancelotti season to justify how good he is/was.That was almost 3 years ago. His demeanor has gone down the shitter. He would almost certainly demand the same wages as Hazard or Fabregas. It would only cause discord in the locker room. Let ManUnited spend over the odds for this guy.

Eager to see what Batshuayi can do when he plays a full 90.

Arsenal has 6 very winnable EPL games coming up. With four of them at home. Cannot let them catch up to us. Hopefully their mentality is broken and they drop some points.

None of them start for Brazil anymore. I don't even think Oscar played in the last 2 qualifiers.

Also take into account the country they're going to. It's easier, and more inviting for SAmerican and African players to acclimate themselves to the european environment than it would be in China. Not to mention the competitive nature of professional athletes; I would assume most would want to play in the top competitions against the top players. Personally, I don't see this investment ever yielding fruition. Just my opinion.

Oscar is going to a league with wealthy owners who cream themselves for massively overrated south americans. Hulk,Ramires, Teixeira, Jackson Martinez, Conca. They're totally clueless. Also, I know our board has made some massive cock-ups in the past(Cuadrado, Torres), but they aren't daft enough to spend £70m on a sub-par player. At least I hope so.

So Madrid bought him for £63m and after sitting on the bench for over 2 years, he's now worth £70m? This is just click-bait for the tabloids.

Best game of hide-and-seek I've ever seen by Özil.

I watched the world cup qualifier match between Arg-Col, and this guy just shouted and pointed for 90 mins. He even got into an argument with one of his own players for not giving him the ball. He has the same shyte attitude as CRonaldo but without the talent. Just a whiny brat. He would be good for a team that refuses to play defense a la City/Liverpoo.

Is it time? Bring back Pellegrini?

Would be more suited to a team like Bayern.

The problem is a Matic-Fabregas midfield. Even more so than missing Diego Costa. Batshuayi is more than capable of putting a good performance against Bournemouth.

Or maybe he's a kiss-ass. He never beat Sunderland with Newcastle and STILL lasted a few years.

This shit happened to him at Newcastle. 😂 How does he keep getting a job in the premier league?

I think he meant that we've already seen the best of him(World Cup).

Di Maria( before the burglary) for the RW spot or Verratti? Both are rumored.

No shots on goal for either team....30 minutes in. Geez. It's like Stoke v West Brom.

Sunderland parking the aircraft carrier. Playing 5-4-1. Denayer the CB being used as a CM. Januzaj, Borini and Defoe their only attackers. Perfect for Fabregas.

The sad reality is that NCIS re-runs probably draw a larger audience than a "soccer" game.

Don't be too harsh. It gives us something to smile at. Wenger in Wenger out something to moan about Wenger in Wenger out so shake it all about

When you look at the physicality of Cahill, Luiz, Terry and to some extent, Azpi, does Ake really belong there? His best chance would come at LWB and Conte has said that 3-4-3 was not his first or second choice. He used that formation because of what he had. One would think after two transfer windows, Ake doesn't fit the mould of a Conte player. Even more so after you consider Kenedy. I would really consider selling for his, and our sake. Good lad just not Chelsea standard.

Very jammy team. Could be a blowout or dropped points. Definitely a game for fabregas. Don't see how midfield two of Kante/Matic helps us out. I don't think Sunderland have any creativity in the middle.

American owners? Bigger fanbase? It doesn't make sense. They're wanting us to purchase NBCSN.
