Damn straight. Probably one of the reasons we weren't able to break down tight defences was the lack of involvement of our FB. Pretty sure Jose spent big money on him to address that issue.
I think Debuchy is a decent signing. Sagna was a disloyal cunt who wanted to leave but I can't understand why the shirt-barbecuing Arsenal fans were at peace with his departure. Debuchy is a typical Wenger signing and I fear he'll do well there. Besides Wenger, uncharacteristically, is having a good transfer window.(must be all the booze from Brazil) I really hope the Khedira deal stalling is for real.
Him 3, Costa 19, Fabregas 4, Pogba 6 if he comes( Romeu will be out on loan, anyway)Matic should keep the #21 shirt and make it legendary like Pirlo's. Also, I think he should grow a beard.
Completely agree with this post. The problem last season was that Jose wasn't able to bring out the true potential of our attackers, when he brought out the true potential of our defense. But, hardly any crisis here. With the sort of signings like Felipe Luis and Fabregas, it'll unleash the talent in our attacking mids even more. Jose sorted out the problem even before this thread was started.
Hard to agree with that. Why did Jose spend £20m on Luis when Azpi was doing the defensive job perfectly?IMO Luis is bought to provide a new dimension to the left flank and compliment Hazard. We hardly saw any link up play between Hazard and Azpi last season. It was almost as if he was own his own and double marked every time he got the ball on the left flank. Luis is a perfectly balanced signing and I don't think Jose is going to ask him to bring down his attacking game.
I really hope he stays if Drogba is returning like the rumours suggest. He could be a world beater under Drogs' guidance. The problem with the lad is that he thinks he is already world-class when he certainly isn't. I hope the poor showing at the world-cup will bring some humility to the kid.
Kroos could've sorted out thread. Too bad he's Madrid bound. Penalties: Hazard( maybe Costa initially to get him going) Corners: Fabregas, Willian FK: Oscar, Fabregas No one in our current squad is a real class act when it comes to FKs
