Gary Cahill

What were ya'all saying he's not good enough lol ? He's fricking WORLDCLASS

This is why no one takes you serious. You're screaming Cahill is world class yet say Mata isn't.

He had a good game on Sunday but that doesn't disguise the fact he's been poor recently.

However I do like his attitude, his honesty and his commitment to the cause. When he is at his absolute best he is good enough to be a regular starting centre-back for this club in my honest opinion. However when you consider he is essentially a replacement for Alex when he signed in January 2012, you have to ask yourself; who would you rather have in your side? A fully-fit and on-form Alex, or a fully-fit and on-form Cahill? As much as I like Cahill, I would chose Alex.

The problem was that alex become injury prone.

This is Cahill's Thread right ?

and well I've never said Mata is not world class . It's just he's too selfish for our NO.10 role (: .

I think you haven't been watching PSG much this season. Alex has been below average every single match I've seen of him this season (which are admittedly not much). But when Alex was Garry's age, I completely agree that he was a better CB.

I watch more Ligue Un football than most French people do!

He hasn't been particularly spectacular on occasions, but then neither has Cahill. Alex can be quite inconsistent, but when he is good, he is superb.

I just think we replaced a player you'd rate 7/10 most games with a player you'd rate 6/10 in most matches.

Despite all his critics, from a statistical perspective Cahill's the best CB in the EPL.

Errors leading to a shot - 2....Really? Seems like this should be more

His tackling skills is usually good though

That is the worst and most retarded thing I have ever heared.

Cahill isnt even close to being the best CB in the EPL. And he's had errors that led to goals.

Looking at statistics like that doesnt say anything. Maybe a player made 2 own goals in a meaningless match. Maybe he was also the reason goals were leaked in another meaningless match. etc etc etc

agree Cahill isn't world class but don't think there's been a direct error from him. think about it. he drops deep, which i think is the sign of a defender lacking confidence, and the mistakes are usually made by defenders around him.

maybe RVP and Pogrebnyak goals should have been considered as Cahill errors but the stats don't say much do they? stats showing Cahill,Evans,Mertesacker as good defenders should be ignored

I have lost count of the times he has played an attacker onside and stepped up too late.

For some reason this kid only recieves praise.

Well, he was crap today.

Yup, Cahill was horrible today. Sorry I have to bring up Luiz but I'm only imagining the type of abuse he'd get if his performance was like Cahill's today.

Luiz in the second half was world class. Like a man possessed. But I agree with your post.

Indeed.

I get so pissed when people totally write Luiz off, especially in the PL. Just look at how he performed when he was paired with JT, a solid CB. They knew where they had eachother. Luiz+Cahill never was that good, mostly because they dont know exacly where they have eachother and they are both pretty young and all that compared to the likes of Iva and JT. Yet Luiz shows that he is world class, like today.

Plus he is versitile and can go forward aswell and take a CDM position when/if needed. That is actually an awesome asset.

I may come off as too harsh on Cahill and whatnot, but I seriousley rate Luiz alot higher than Cahill. With that said, I like them both.
