I would happily seeing us win the CC and the FA Cup this season. It is easy to see that we are relying on a backbone which is used to a different style of play and a system that AVB doesn't want to use. And i expect more faces to come in January, giving, what thers might call 'dead-wood' time to find there next step while also giving there replacements an oppertunity to get fixed into the new style. It is bad this realisation of going through an transitional peroid has come a little latter then what the fans have wanted to see, but we have a least taking the starting steps - time for the next to come in January. Time to through away the sentimentals and look more critique to each member and the role which they have, and the effect that could be amounted if they can't establish themselves into the new system.

:dude: :cfc:

I want Pikachu, Charzard, and Mew to play up-front.

wtf? seriously?

Is there a supposed set date for the jury to decide his fate?

We need both Raul, Mata and Lampard on the pitch at the same time for Nando to score, me thinks, or Anelka at least. Hoping for the best.

Got talent and still is young, but is no Hazard threat consistently. See what i did there?

Sturridge is just a beast plain and simple Second top-goalscorer after Super Frakie despite being played on the wing more frequent as well as having 3 less matches.

Didn't Crapello say Danny would start as some point? Dude is a complete idiot. Was brilliant at Bolton, had a brilliant start to the season - despite he missed three games with a suspension - yet Zamora is chosen ahead of him? It's like putting on Heskey instead of a proven goal threat - wait he did that!

Sturridge>Welbeck, Zamora, Walcott

Why would they need him? De Bruyne -- Lukaku -- Hazard our all Belgian attacking front

anyone got video of the goal? Do you guys think he can get 100 caps before he retires for England? Personally, i think he will get more as well, with some more goals

Lol at Danny's dress sense, and them trying to hide Man Citeh's badge at the start Chalobah's reaction was class, as was Lukaku's He is known to be a good Fifa player, as was Ryan, guess he went easy on Josh

Seems like a very down-to-Earth character, and it is nice to know we have someone so talented with that attitude AVB should play him more regularly though

Daily Mail You know anythign reported in the Fail would be unlikely. £8 million would be the starting negotiations to get there attention, with an additional £12 million to speak with the player himself!

Sturridge nearly getting some but action from Eva there - i am thinking AVB is a butt man

Let's sign Pele, Ronaldo, Cafu, Socrates, Ronaldinho, Roamrio and Rivaldo, just to please Henrique and the seeming pleasure he gets from seeing Brazilian players in a blue shirt. Forget there ages, signing the world's most wanted youth players is such a bad idea!

I think we will finish in the tpo four and win some kind of cup, hopefully something among the lines of the Fa cup to ensure that next season we can have an oppertunity to fight for the CS, along with a more wider field of expectation. We need to make the bolders out of the team, this summer and the up-coming window in January as well as breeding and bringing in the best replacements. Mata was an added addition and the perfect example of what the type of players we need, and what a person with a whole new perspective can bring into the squad, instead of the same one-dimensional minds of Kalou and Malouda. We might have to say good-bye to some favourites but i think to fully be able to admire the final painting we need to have the painter there to start and finish painting it. I hope AVB will be able to use his famous analytic and tactical mind to bring a more diverse approach to the squad when it is needed, and not to be afraid to raise his voice when it is needed to. He has the team on a schedule, which should be a smaller part of a larger plan of his favoured system. I have always stated, that this season needed to be the transistional season we have needed for the last couple of years with someone with a spark about, but it might have to sacrific short-term success in order to create a path to long-term success and a bigger and brighter future, all based upon the stability of the leader - the manager - and the system which we use. If we have the system, but don't have the stability, only have the journey can be created, and in terms of AVB, we have a whole new system with a chance of stability. As for those calling for AVB's head, it is down to more of impatience and egotism of some - and others, just unable to see the bigger picture, no matter how clear nor foggy it might be.

We lack two things imo, another creative mind like Mata who we can't rely on 24/7 and someone who can bag in the goals. Sometimes this season, it looked like Nando was back, but sometimes it hasn't, maybe the inclusion of another creative person can add to that - i don't know. But, i think we have the quality to get the wins when it was needed, like the Mourinho days and the 1-0 scorelines, but with AVB i think he sees this as 'negative' football. More changes are going to happen in January, hopefully better ones then last seasons - more say on the fact we waited till the last three days until our toes were in the pond - we can loan out Josh and bring in someone to revamp our frontline. Hazard, De Bruyne, Hulk, Lavezzi, Cavani, etc. it doesn't really matter, except that they can either play on the wing naturally or consistently or can score goals. In the perfect world, we would have had both Silva and Aguero Another Mata buy is what we should be looking out for to kick-start a 'shift' again, and i believe AVB will be here no matter what next season, but hope he can get somekind of silverware, ie CC, FA Cup, CL, Pl, whatever.

Playing 4-3-2-1

Lampard!!!!

It's more like we are playing 4-5-1 then 4-3-3

By the end of the season, Cole is only going to be a match-stick if he carries on playing every game!
