LDN Blue 7,903 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Yes his form has not been great i admit in fact i have bashed him but sometimes you must pick people on tactical strategy. We have to have structure we cant keep playing seasoned strikers out wide just because they have pace. We concede too many goals in the first 20 mins because we keep playing strikers who have a very low awareness of what a winger should do in the event of the opposition gaining ball. How many times have we watched Chelsea and you just sit down with your drink and the opposition have scored. That's because we lack structure when we play strikers out wide.I agree with your thinking from the tactical sense. However the Malouda we expect, based on that, and the Malouda we get is very different. The Malouda will get is one who won't be wise in the final third, who'll shoot from a ridiculous distance - knowing it won't go in - and one who can't play a simple pass.Yes, though, he does backtrack. He provides good support for Cole, and he'll give Mata license to roam free behind the strikers. It's a huge gamble because Malouda's lot his attacking instinct (though he can still put in a gem of a cross at times). Defensively he's a good choice, I suppose.

dodojojo 510 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Until Chelsea get a RW or RF in the winter window maybe AVB can stray from the 4-3-3 and play 4-2-3-1. It's the best formation for Torres and at this point, let's try to play the best formation for the personnel and we can play the ideal 4-3-3 after a couple of new players come in. CechBrana, Luiz JT ColeMeireles Mikel/RomeuRamires Anelka MataTorresI would prefer Anelka over Lampard but we know Nico doesn't always show up for every game. Lampard can slot in for Meireles/Anelka. Anelka and Mata to swap positions throughout the game. But AVB won't play 4-2-3-1 apparently.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Badboy 1,526 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 I vaguely remember having this discussion post-Arsenal so I'm not going to rehash it except to say Torres was in position for a couple of easy opportunities early on but the ball never got to him. I'll just let you recall why. Sturridge was so abysmal that day Arsenal pretty much stopped marking him and Torres was left with two CBs on him and without his right side partner providing much help.Torres actually had the worst performance i have ever seen from a Chelsea centre forward since the 90's. He did even touch the ball, Strurridge was actually causing problems with his pace and of course he score that offside goal that was hardly his fault. Torres had a complete shocker that day Mertastacker had a easy game did you hear that ? PER MERTASTACKER HAD AN EASY GAME ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is a 14 year old who knows what he will be like in fucking 10 years time lol. I don't think its worth rating players as young as 14 to be honest especially players with the build of this kid. The other kids will catch up to him when he gets to the late teens then we will see how his power influences games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dodojojo 510 Posted November 17, 2011 Share Posted November 17, 2011 Liverpool boards have game threads for both the Sunday and CC games. Funny that they're ticked off about having to play the CC game 2 days after Man City and are completely buggered about how they'll play their first team twice in 3 days.Should someone tell them Chelsea like any self-respecting big club are playing the kids for the CC?

dodojojo 510 Posted November 18, 2011 Share Posted November 18, 2011 Can see Liverpool parking the bus like they did in the last game and counter-attacking with Suarez. They'll mark Torres tightly which may result in everyone moaning about him "not trying." Hopefully he and the teammate will play it smart. If Torres gets double-teamed in the box, he should take his defenders for a run-about and it's up to Mata, Lampard, Sturridge and others to take advantage of that space.
