Hope we have a replacement squad member in mind instead, or that AVB thinks he can use a certain youth player in that role.

Source: Sky Sports Don't know much abut him, except he is meant to be a winger/second striker(?).

I am not going to delude myself into thinking that a total evolution will come in the first few weeks, but it was nice to see that AVB was able to do something to change the game despite having no differences in the team that lacked so much last season. This is such a good indiction that maybe we finally have a tactically sound manager after Carlo, but the team selection does worry me oh so much. Kalou starting like that? And the fact he risked the team's midfeild like that with Lampard and Ramires dropping. Too bad Alex got injured though, we could have seen Josh play in that role Rambo played, where he went on the offense as well as being defensive.

Torres was brilliant and shouldn't have come off, for Drogba who did nothing. Lampard improved more when Ramires dropped back - much like his previous self. Hilario was more strong then i thought he would be, and should be number two and Turnbull should be sold. Anleka was his usual self, the good, the bad and th ugly being on display. Was pleased to see that we had the two attacking fullbacks on full form again, Bosingwa was solid throughout the game for me, and he made the second goal. It was a poor performance, but it reminded of the old days when even though we played horrible and 'ugly' football, we still got the points and the goals that was needed. I think AVB changed the game tactically more then the actual subsitutions and was actually able to garner something from the midfeild. Still think someone like Jsh or Yossi should have come on for the creativity that we lacked. Malouda, i can't really say that much - but i still believe we need two wingers and a midfeilder. And Kalou should be sold or released. Would love to have another squad member incase Yossi is leaving due to a part-exchange plus cash for Modric.

Do we have a chick physio?

Lol at AVB telling Bos where to throw the ball :giggle:

We have to take the psitvies and then to add to the squad to make more options.

missed AVB's reaction

THE BOS IS BACK!!!

MALOUDA!!!!! OMFG! TWO OF THE WORST PLAYERS WE'VE GOT HAVE SCORED!!!!

Looks set for a draw

Torres shouldn't come off!

STILL need those changes.... sooner then never

Fucking stream! GGGGOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAALLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!111

DO SOMETHING AVB!!

If AVB takes off Torres, he is an idiot!

LLoks like there is no changes made

Lampard needs to go off the high horse and play a less higher role - he isn't the same player. I would love for Josh to come on, or even Benayoun (which i doubt would happen), just smoeone who would know that the ball goes towards the forwards rather then the defence. This would also offer Ramires to play the more attacking style, with Mac/Benay playing just behind him and Mikel in the holding role. Would love to see a squad member come in, like Honda, who could add more options though, and i 100% think that we need TWO wingers, or give Kakuta a chance in the next game. The fact Torres is being forced to play right while Anleka hangs down in the midfeild should tell you why.

time for a Lampard free kick blast into the wall, superb!

Yiou just know Foster is going to save any chances we get. Just seems to be one of those days.

FFS ANLEKA! Ruined a golden oppertunity! WTF is Torres doing on the right?

Someone please tell Roman to bribe another club to sell Kalou.
