Tomo 21,751 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Did he actually snub him? you can't tell because Anton's hand is in the way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naked Mole Rat 437 Posted September 15, 2012 Share Posted September 15, 2012 Terrific performance from Luiz today. Most of his challenges were spot on, and I don't remember him pointlessly thumping the ball forward today. Hopefully, he'll continue to play well. sLOVEnian Blue and Rmpr 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrique 9,133 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Somenone could explain why David Luiz cant play as DM? Ollie 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve 10,227 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Somenone could explain why David Luiz cant play as DM?I don't think there is any reason why we couldn't trial him in that position but the only problem is he becomes wreckless at times and will push higher up the park when he should sit back. This could leave us exposed at the back if our centre backs also push up. RDM would need to discipline him in the role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RDM would need to discipline him in the role.I think he could be excellent in the double pivot, but maybe not as the "Mikel," but as the "Lampard."Mikel - David Luiz could actually be an excellent partnership. Who knows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who knows.People have been complaining about Lampard always going forward, leave spaces behind him and Mikel exposed as well. Same thing likely to happen with Luiz. He has the flair and good ability on the ball but don't think he has the discipline to play in that role. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Spike 12,049 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Fullbacks like to get foward - David Luiz likes to get forward. Why hasn't anyone even considered playing him at RB or LB? Personally I believe that Luiz would be worse in the 'double pivot' (oh, how I despise that term) because he would bomb forward all the time just like Lamps. Just like Lamps people would just complain. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ollie 4,400 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 So maybe swap Luiz and Ivanovic. I reckon he'd make a pretty good RB. The worst position for him is CB and that's his position, shocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike 12,049 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 Exactly. Ivan has average technical abilities so anyone that plays on the right suffers from lack of consistent passing, crosses etc. Luiz has pace, flair, tekkers and aggression.

Just like Lamps people would just complain.That only becomes a problem if he lingers in and around the box once moving the ball on (what Lampard does). Once he's moved the ball on, he could simply start moving back towards his defensive position - something Lampard doesn't do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mediator 2,026 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 BTW we should try him in the double pivot only to see. Maybe in carling cup Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,958 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 On Oscar -'I take him every day to my house because he has no family over here,' Luiz explained.'I know how hard it is when you don't speak the language. If you go to a restaurant for example and you don't know what food you're ordering it's difficult.''I try to show Oscar and help Chelsea too.'

Jase 43,479 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 He could thrive. Let's face it, Luiz wants to be MF.He may thrive there but does he have the discipline to do his defensive duties there if needed? I'm not sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 I thought David Luiz and Cole were our best defenders against Juve. He tackled well, didn't give away too many fouls, strong at intercepting and didn't make any major error. JT's the one who should be criticized for his defending.D. Luiz should work on keeping his passing simple for the most though, takes too many unnecessary risks.But again, a strong defensive performance. termninja 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BOSS 372 Posted September 21, 2012 Share Posted September 21, 2012 BTW we should try him in the double pivot only to see. Maybe in carling cupWould be a waste of talent. We already have Romeu who can boss the DM position. BleedsBlue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
