Wasn't that their only defeat of the season ( Espanyol)? Also they have the better chance than any other team in breaking down parked buses because of their quick tempo to a passing and one touch passes. Our problem is holding onto the ball for too long before making passes give my the defenders some sort of advantage.
That is a sure thing especially since he is Chelsea player. Pretty sure Fellaini's elbow to the face or Toure kicking Wolfswinkel are just minor offences compared to Ramires' horrific attack on Larsson.
That right there is a potential treble winning, going-100-game-unbeaten, kick-ass side. Costa and Vidal will make the core of our side with Hazard being the star performer and with that back 4 and GK, we will be almost scary. :dude:
If it was just the horrid passing or the lack of discipline or lack of creativity or poor shot selection or being inept, he might have worked here. But all of that together?? Just warm the bench till the end of the season. Abysmal.
I seriously doubt Costa alone can solve our problems against sides like Sunderland that park the fucking bus. Definitely need some reinforcements in the centre- midfield.
