Unionjack 7,531 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Always liked the lad tho I wanted to shake him warmly by the throat when he was giggling on the floor that time, But these extra responsibilities (I remembered the word!) is making him more cautious and self aware. Hes doing great. I also think he would make a great polaymaker in the deep pocket in front of the CDs I cant get ober just how much praise is being lavished on him by journos and pundits. Im pleased for him and nice to show those amongst us who thoughht he was a accident waiting to happen and a last minute panic buy he can actually do the job. Heres his vid v Saints   Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that will be really handy next season when JT wont be around. He has always been a good strong character which is something we dont have too much of. But you can imagine some of the pranks and banter the likes of Luiz,Bats and Diego get upto. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least that's how I remember him from his first stint with us, haven't really paid attention to it this time. A playmaker also needs creativity and correct decision making in addition to pure technical skill to pull off passes, I very much doubt he can do it.

Adnane 1,101 Posted November 3, 2016 Share Posted November 3, 2016 Lazy to mount a clip of his best passes this second time around, but yeah, he used to over hit them earlier with us, right now he seems to have progressed even more in that aspect, all his forward passes are generally neat. He hits them strong, between the line on players feet so it breaks oponnent pressure, we just need to have technically gifted players to control those balls well.

That's what you want from your ball-playing defender, to be technically adept at getting the ball forward and he does that well. Doubt he would be able to dictate tempo, be a creative outlet and the focal point of possession play, that in a position with less time on the ball. Don't think he has the eye or intelligence to be a playmaker. Adnane 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post! Amblève. 4,995 Posted November 5, 2016 Popular Post! Share Posted November 5, 2016 Luiz was simply TROLLING that Everton team today. He was abusing them physically, playing 50m passes with ease, and controlling the flow of the whole game from the back.

He wasn't just class he was dominant. Completely dominant. Wonderful stuff from that walking mop. The development of Luiz, Azpilicueta and Costa as leaders is truly encouraging as well.

Supermonkey92 1,428 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 It was like he was on the playground witj Lukaku. Legend. Passes as good as Bonnuci, yeh i said it. Defensively, hes been a juggernaut. Welcome luiz and take a bow! Unionjack, Fernando and The Skipper 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,056 Posted November 5, 2016 Share Posted November 5, 2016 To think people were mocking the signing. Has been solid in every game he's played and his passing range is insane. Amblève. and Unionjack 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! The Skipper 20,609 Posted November 6, 2016 Popular Post! Share Posted November 6, 2016 Well, I'm one of Luiz's biggest fans and that performance showed why. The season where we had Rafa he was really coming on and I said that the next season was make or break for him in regards to being known as a world class defender. I thought he missed his window of opportunity but here we are... he's clawed it back. If he performs around this level for the rest of his CFC career he goes down as a bonafide CFC/PL legend. Viva la David Luiz. Igi26, kolovrat, Hybrid Angel and 4 others 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
