David Luiz

Another way of saying... No shit sherlock!

Oh, thanks

[BlueLyon 9,359]

I don't care how well he kept Falcao at bay for Brazil.

He barely does any good shit with US so what he does for Brazil is irrelevant.

Well, RDM needs to tell him to stick back more.

And yesterday, Thiago Silva was very good too.

Exactly this. RDM gives Luiz that freedom whilst Brazil don't. That's the major difference.

Thiago Silva was unplayable yesterday. not sure if that is the reason Luiz was so good.

Luiz was excellent early in the season when he paired with John Terry, he was more cautious and tended not try to dribble his way out of trouble from the defence, he'd rather hoof the ball. The two were the centreback pairing in most if not all of the matches Chelsea has kept a clean sheet in this season. It's not surprising that with Silva by his side there were able to keep Falcao quite for the whole match. I think the club should play only these two centre back combinations at a time if possible, Cahill and Ivanovic; Terry and Luiz.

Of course it is relevant what Luiz does for Brazil. This shows that he CAN be a very good player for us....

He had an expectacular performance, it was just flawless (no long balls nor attack adventures).

[sLOVEnian Blue 74]

He did make 2 or 3 very good runs ... I remember one, where he dribbled past 3 Colombian players

But I agree that he had a great game and kept both Falcao and Martinez in check. He has had a few bad games for Chelsea, but in September and October he played pretty solid IMO and I don't know what happened since than ... maybe he is just not comfortable playing with Cahill.

I saw David in my dream tonight. He was sad. I tried to cheer him up, so I offered to buy him a snickers, he refused.

Thiago Silva is the best centreback in the world. Damn PSG bought two of the best players because Zlatan is the best striker in Europe and Silva is the best centreback in Europe.

May sound stupid but,

Anyone actually think he'd make a good striker lol?

Can defend, good on the ball, good balance, good control, can finish? Big fella to good in the air.

I mean we've seen weirder things in football, Bale moving from LB to centre forward, sturridge and torres are shite, and if were not going to try moses could stick him their till january got nothing to loose really.

No, he would be terrible. But he would make a world class DM though.

And about the "Sturridge is shite" part, lets just see about that shall we

Im not so sure about him being terrible, I agree about the DM part tho, i imagine he'd be quality their.

It's simple, Luiz needs Terry next to him to perform his best.

Maybe even Iva?

I dont know, obviousley Cahill+Luiz isnt that great (yet), but I feel that Luiz is getting alot more shit than he should. And Cahill really isnt that much better than him.

Our strongest combo has been Luiz+Terry,

Luiz is better then cahill, at least he should be. Cahill is probably still a better defender tho.
