robsblubot 3,595 Posted March 15, 2013 Share Posted March 15, 2013 I don't deny the occasional mistakes--all players make them.It's just so strange to hear our defense this, or our defense that... when Luiz is carrying the ball and makes a good pass, was that defense or build up? When we keep possession we are not attacked... Did he make a good pass because he has the quality or because other players moved enough to receive the pass--perhaps both? When he loses possession, is it entirely his fault then? Was it an easy pass he missed, or no such option was available? It's difficult to know without knowing what they are told by their managers and coaches.Have you guys seen him playing for Brazil? Never seen him lose possession... even against England when Brazil were mostly dominated.We don't have defense and offense; we have a defensive system which involves all players. And when we win a game, all players on the pitch were successful, because their collective contribution was enough to win the match. It may sound cheesy, but unlike Tennis or any other individual sport, that's really the only way to see football.

Jase 43,479 Posted March 17, 2013 Share Posted March 17, 2013 From the BBC TOTW...Chelsea have a 64% win percentage in the Premier League this season when Luiz plays but only 29% when he doesn't. Tomo and The Skipper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted March 25, 2013 Share Posted March 25, 2013 Was brilliant again today with T. Silva, they compliment each other so well. Luiz has been consistent for quite a long run of games now, hopefully he keeps it up and realises his potential ASAP. If we can get a CB of T. Silva's ilk to partner Luiz we'll be set for years.

Silva's ilk to partner Luiz we'll be set for years.They don't make many players of Silva's ilk, tbh.But yeah, Luiz is hitting form for club and country (except for a few lapses of concentration). Need him to keep this form for the rest of the season if we are to achieve our objectives. The Skipper 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 1, 2013 Share Posted April 1, 2013 Was solid today.He has been really consistent this year and i hope he keeps it up.Yeah, you notice that whenever this thread is quiet Luiz is doing well. It will only take one bad game for people to call him useless/brainless/headless & for the calls to sell him ASAP to return. Like it or not, Luiz has been one of our better, consistent players this season. BleedsBlue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stats 7,147 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Those are the ones who could be available in the summer. Real will not let Varane go at any costs nor will he want to leave. He is 19, playing regular football there at one of the best clubs in the world. Why would they even contemplate selling him or would he consider leaving?

Not a probable matter, rather a possibility.If Mourinho were to come there could be a possibility of Varane joining us considering Mourinho's affect on players IE Carvalho and Ferreria. But that is only assumption, hence the uh, cough, could part. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NishC300 1,865 Posted April 2, 2013 Share Posted April 2, 2013 Surprised this thread is so quiet. Barely no one praises Luiz when he has a good game, but are easy to criticise him heavily after a bad game, even some saying that one bad game is proof we should sell him and that he's not good enough etc. This is why I say the criticism he gets is over exaggerated. I agree! We are privileged to have such a talented defender Mceachran 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
