didierforever 7,349 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 More than Bayern IMO.. and perhaps more than ATM aswell, the reason that I dont want ATM is their spirit, tactics, great manager.. its not that their attack is so amazing.ATM and chelsea will be set up pretty similar. the match will come down to a moment of magic/set-piece.bayern will be a story of them trying to outplay us and we trying to counter them. but defensively bayern are way better than RM. infact its not even a contest in that way. the fact that RM have carvajal as their LB should give the likes of hazard/schurrle the confidence of having a jolly time.

CHOULO19 24,332 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 counter attack? against a team like chelsea who will have 10 men behind the ball!!! RM will be counter attacked, they wont counter attack us if we play each other. Jose knows the team inside out and no doubt would be the best man to beat them.they are shit defensively from counters and set pieces. their fullbacks are a major liability defensively (marcelo and carvajal), and pepe-ramos is a volatile partnership.They are the best bet of the lot. That preseason match counts for nothing. ISCO dominated us and i can bet my ass that he is not starting unless RM have an 2/3 mid fielders injured. arbeloa deserved to get 3/4 yellow cards. most importantly it was a pre-season match, how can u compare that with a european night?Not comparing the two games, just pointing out how we failed to cope with their style. That was the only game this season where we really got dominated. yuvala 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope we get Hazard back. Sorry, but we ain't winning shit w/out him playing for us.Jose was guessing after the game. The scan would have been today. I read Hazard told a Belgian paper yesterday that he expects to be fit for the weekend. I guess we'll have to wait for Jose's PC for confirmation. robdog, babu and didierforever 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

True about ATM, they are pretty similar to us.Isn't Carvajal a RB? is Marcelo injured? what about Coentrao though?Not comparing the two games, just pointing out how we failed to cope with their style. That was the only game this season where we really got dominated.Correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the only game this season where we really got dominated.thats the point,you cant have a pre-season game as a yard stick.moreover their style in NOTHING like the time we played each other. ISCO and OZIL were their main man in that match, both of them would not get much of a part to play. we definitely wont have mvg-lamps as our pivot with essien coming on in the 2nd half. like i said, u simply CAN NOT use that match as an argument.ps - the match where we were truly outplayed was man city fa cup.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 I lost interest when I saw Liverpool in 7th place in Europe! Well I don't know ...I have my suspicions but, who knows of any better ?The obviously suspect figure is that of Galata Saray, 1648. Chelsea is 292 above the Turks. Surely we are above them but by that much ? A 292 point difference makes them a pub team.I don't know how they work. I 'd be interested if there is someone better.

yuvala 2,167 Posted April 9, 2014 Share Posted April 9, 2014 i meant RB. my bad. just meant to say that carvajal will be up against hazard/schurlle. Hopefully Hazard. I thought Carvajal was really good at the start of the season but he's kinda shaky at the back.When I'm starting to think about it Real really wouldn't be THAT bad, just have a trauma from pre-season.. didierforever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our best is the injured Mitroglou then you have to go for Karagounis who is a 1998 player.FIFA's publications are likewise suspect.There must be someone more accurate. There used to be one from Scotland ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
