Kojo 4,676 Posted September 15, 2011 Share Posted September 15, 2011 I don't think that's true.Like I said, it's because Vidic does a lot more positive than negative which is why it seems that way. However I've seen many times on MOTD & SS, his negatives being scrutinized. Especially with that handball last season v. Arsenal or whoever it was.The only reason David Luiz's mistakes are more noted on is, because he's knew. If Phil Jones made similar ones, they wouldn't go unnoticed either. For many, the first impression of David Luiz (for most media) was his - lucky - missed red card, which then punished United further with that goal. Haha yeah his foul on Rooney a man who should of been suspended for his elbow to that Wigan player before they played us, it was just karma IMO.

Ollie 4,400 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 How good is David Luiz? Play him in midfield and we'll see just how good he is. I think he's brilliant but being a defender takes away some things from him even if he see's himself as a defender he bloody well aint one. Come on Boss, Carling Cup midweek, play about.

Liquidator 5,176 Posted September 16, 2011 Share Posted September 16, 2011 He is only young so he has time to iron out the rubbish marking and silly tackles. Experience will help with that too. However, he does seem to have a sort of 'immature' nature to him so you never know he may always be making stupid tackles. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liquidator 5,176 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 After last nights performance I'd say that he is more or less world class Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whinni09 37 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 (edited) Would love Luiz if he had a haircut and looked more badass like Terry in action, but he is still world class imo. Edited September 22, 2011 by whinni09 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 Yesterday got me thinking about how Luiz is always chosen for the brazilian side unlike Alex, despite the fact that Alex looked much more solid than him at the back (up until the penalty of course). So does anyone think he's better than Alex? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
termninja 5,290 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 He really amazed me against Fulham. He was fucking everywhere for 120minutes and still managed to get back in defense when needed. Really quality player. Plays risky, but that's what you sometimes need. He is going to be very important for us if AVB continues to use the high df line and to build from the back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Big Drog 1,110 Posted September 22, 2011 Share Posted September 22, 2011 How good is David Luiz? I wouldn't choose a single other player on the planet to play at the heart of the Chelsea defence ahead of him. I honestly think its simply a case of some people just dont appreciate his style of defending, to some people a centre back should be purely a stopper in the mould of a Vidic or Terry. To appreciate David Luiz you really have to appreciate what it is that he brings to a team. He has fantastic anticipation, the amount of times he wins the ball high up the pitch is incredible, I dont think I've ever seen a better one on one defender, he is so quick and thats really important to have in this high line defence, when he does play on the cover he is very adept at it, he is a great option to have coming out of defence with the ball and has a wonderful passing range. The guy is quality, a real high quality centre back who isn;t you typical dime a dozen English centre back, he is a lot more than that and personally Im always excited when I see his name on the team sheet, imo he is a world class talent.

Spike 12,049 Posted September 23, 2011 Share Posted September 23, 2011 In January we will most likely be seeing a new CB sign for us, it seems to be AVB's will. Raul Albiol and Gary Cahill seem to be the most likely of suspects. I for one would love for David Luiz to be a starter over John Terry by this point and former a partnership with whoever AVB decides to bring in.Ivan -- Luiz -- Cahill/Albiol -- Cole/Bertrand Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bosingwa is his first choice as a RB ans I dont think that will change.So I think you are terrible wrong. We have Alex, Luiz, Terry and Ivanovic, we dont need another CB and we will not buy one in January. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
