10 reasons to be delighted with AVB so far

[CHOULO19 24,332]

Meireles was our worst player yesterday? Are you sure?

He does the 'donkey work' Makelele did, the difference is he doesn't get the credit.

No I said he was our worst player against city because he was not defending as he usually does and his pass success percentage was shocking. Yesterday, it's pretty hard to say who was our worst player because everyone was competing very hard for that tittle.

I do agree that Meireles has been a good player for us so far, but to say that our midfield is disjointed without him is over the top in my opinion.

He was awful yesterday, though. Like CHOULO19 said there were others who were just as bad so maybe he didn't stand out as much or something. Least Lamps wasn't giving the ball away every time he got it. Did you think he was anything apart from horrible yesterday?

11. He has a fine ass.

Barcelona started his current philosophy ( attacking football ) under Rinus Michels in 70s. If Roman love that playing style he should ask the manager to create a new philosophy, all we have until now is the Mourinho philosophy.

AVB pressed the panic button and returned to the old 4-3-3. Hope he got some balls and try something different with the right players.

Mate AVB has been playing the 4-3-3 since Porto and when he arrived at Chelsea, that is his system of choice and has been from day one. What has changed is that we don't press as high and as a result the line is a lot deeper than it was at the start of the season but that hasn't dictated a change in the actual formation.

Like always great post Tomo91. But i disagree in almost every point. He is the most overrated coach and another totally wrong investment from our Roman Empire.

He uses the same players that failed totally last season Malouda and Kalou,and its okey to bench Torres, but M&K can play again and (shitty) again, why?.(and yes

i know they are not strikers, talking about performing). Were is the young players?, besides a fantastic Sturrigde. And people question our young players, well why

and when will they be ready if a coach doesnt have the guts to use them?. Boas plays it save and even beginns to dought his own high defence line, which by the way is

another so clear failure that we never gonna be able to play ( Terry suffers and dont get it, but does what the boss tell him). How about let big ego Drogba on the bench

sometimes?.Torres hasnt played since how long?, and then the foul tells he is not for sale at any prizes, you think the kid is gonna be motivated to play and stay?.

Its okey if he has lost faith in him ( i diasgree and saw great improvement before the benching started) like the most but then say it, and get on instead of this unworthy peace

of shit to tread a player, ( like Lampard he hasnt even spoke to him about benching?), talk to your players one of the first thing to learn as a coach Boas!. In the media

he says the same shit besides fighting everybody, and many praise him for standing up against the media, a coach fighting the media is not in self control and the club aint

gonna benefit from it. He talks about guts and improvement, he hasnt shown anything of that. Do we play better football than last year even with great new signs?.

Romeu?

James Rodriguez for example has become an important player for Porto(started playing there last season)
