Superblue 6,372 Posted April 19, 2012 Share Posted April 19, 2012 Gary Cahill's performance last night was for me one of the most pleasing aspects. I highly rated him before he moved to Chelsea and was naturally delighted when we bought him in January. However I can openly admit I was worried about him replacing Luiz last night.His ability is unquestionable but he had looked shaky in the Napoli away and Benfica home (when on as a sub) games. This is expected when he has had no real experience playing in Europe at that level.A poor performance last night could have really put him back in terms of confidence and development as a top class centre back. The second half performance really showed his potential IMO and a couple of last man perfectly timed tackles, particularly one on Messi were superb.The chants of 'only one Gary Cahill' were richly deserved and he is proving to be a bargain each passing game.

I still laugh when I think of the people who didn't want him because he was only a bolton player.Guilty! - Not because he was a Bolton player though, just thought he was a bit overhyped and wouldn't fit in a big club. So glad I was wrong though! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tomo 21,751 Posted April 21, 2012 Share Posted April 21, 2012 I think we are going a bit overboard saying he is going to replace JT.Yes bar the Napoli and to a lesser extent Birmingham game he has been awesome for us, but lets not go over hyping him because the second he makes a mistake this forum will go into meltdown.

Jase 43,479 Posted April 24, 2012 Share Posted April 24, 2012 Gutted for him having to go off just minutes into such a big game. Apparently, it's hamstring problem and he will have a scan tomorrow. Hope it's nothing serious. We're already having problems with our defence in the upcoming games! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran. 6,317 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Cahill 'praying' over injuryGary Cahill is praying that the injury he picked up at Barcelona will not keep him out of the UEFA Champions League final."I just pray the scan's all right"The England international was forced off early on at the Camp Nou, with the game still goalless, when he hurt his hamstring.With John Terry sent off and Branislav Ivanovic booked, meaning both are now suspended, Cahill will definitely start the final in Munich on May 19th if fit."I'm hoping it's not as bad as we first thought," he told Sky Sports News."I just felt a pop in my hamstring."But it's high up, which they tell me is probably better than it being right in the middle."I just pray the scan's all right." AgonyCahill admitted he and Terry went through agony watching the game on television."I was devastated that I had no more part to play in the game and, when I looked up and saw JT come through the door, I'll be honest, I probably feared the worst," he said."But the lads were absolutely outstanding, the way they stuck together and ground out the result. It was amazing. Phenomenal, absolutely phenomenal."I was about four times more nervous than playing, watching the game, just in the changing room praying that it would go all right and, luckily, in the end it did."Having seen Lionel Messi smash the crossbar with a penalty and also hit the post in the second half, Cahill and Terry's victory jig began when Fernando Torres came off the bench to score the tie's clinching goal."Unbelievable, watching it on the screens," Cahill said. "We nearly took the roof off when that went in."http://www1.skysport...ing-over-injury Rambo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZanSnake 1,211 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 I hope he aint injured for it either, it will have to be a Luiz - Cahill partnership in defence, otherwise we might have to use Essien or Mikel at DC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ollie 4,400 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Cahill in the UCL final is OMFG! What must he be feeling right now, i mean shit, he was fighting relegation about 3 months ago and a year ago he was getting hammered 5-0 in the FA Cup Semi. Now he's on the brink of a UCL final if his Injury isn't too bad. So many things are just crazy about this wonderful sport we love. Nothing compares to it.

The Big Drog 1,110 Posted April 25, 2012 Share Posted April 25, 2012 Obviously it's a shame that Terry will be missing and it will weaken the centre of our defence but Cahill and Luiz are both excellent defenders, hopefully both make the final, in theory they should form a more effective centre back pairing than Bosingwa and Ivanovic.
