David Luiz

Mata has a lot of good free kicks. Every single one I've seen Luiz take before this one has been poor, most of them awful.. This one was fantastic though. Unstoppable.

RDM said after the game "about time" that Luiz always scores them in training along with Mata, but has not been able to do it in games till today.

I take it back, he can take all of our FKs if he can score like that!

[Kieran. 6,317]

It was obvious he takes them a lot during training...and he finally struck it right in an actual game.

GK looks confused.

Great FK though.

Drogba taught him that for sure. Pretty much identical to how Drogba used to take em.

[Jase 43,479]

Oscar and Luiz once again with the dance.

Thank goodness we did not draw the game this time around...

man I still can't believe Side Show Bob scored a free kick goal & to think this barca fan had the freakin' nerve to tell me DL would be purchased from CFC in the Summer to replace Puyol. Freakin' arrogrant fuck that barca fan

Together with the picture BluesMaster posted. So many geezers in there it's hard to keep up.

I am not quite sure if David understands the full concept and idea behind calling someone a geezer.

I love his twitter feed though, they should make a book of this. A sort of "Guide to Happyness" kind of thing.

I was just thinking about the CL final. David Luiz played with a injury which really restricted him, he couldn't even run. That was some heroic stuff, even put in a solid performance, but I've noticed that it's hardly mentioned. Yet there's always so much attention when he does something wrong. Makes no sense.

Forget Luiz, the entire team won't get enough credit for what we did. Shit was heroic.

True but the extreme focus on the bad he does annoys me. Especially because you hear little to nothing about the good. Guess some things will never change.

I think some of that has to do with being a central defender. Defenders mostly get attention when they do something wrong because what they do right is hardly ever flashy. They hold their lines well, they intercept passes, they communicate well, they position themselves well, etc... Good defending is inherently dull. How many gifs are there of "Hummels marking has man closely" or something like that? It's sort of like when you don't notice the referee, you know he's done a good job.

What you're saying is true but it's not what I meant. For instance, look at Terry's thread when he has a bad game. Hardly any noise. When he has a good game, he gets praised.

Pundits also praise him, his good performance is mentioned in articles about the game. It's the same with the defenders of other teams. But it's the complete opposite with David Luiz. The little noise when he does well is fine but all the attention, not just Chelsea fans, when he does wrong is what gets to me. He doesn't even make mistakes more often than Terry really.

But I feel like I'm repeating myself over and over again so I'll just leave it at that.
