Tomo 21,751 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 IMO this team isnt ''grown up'' enough to fully suit Mou tactics. In inter, for example he had 11 players that perfectly fitted into his tactics, any opponent given. In current team, we have Cesc who is pretty much useless at dictating tempo in big games, then there is our attack that is simply not efficient enough. We create alot, score alot, but also miss damn too many chances at one on one, or making stupid decision in final third. For example, Inter on counter attack, they had Milito, Etoo and Sneijder, anyone of three would score in like 90% chances, if 1vs1. In our team, cant say same for Oscar, Willian, even Hazard.But in few years, our team could end up very very connected and efficient, with all key players improving.Obviously its kinda pointless to discuss who would win, ball is round, then there is daily form, bit of luck, etc...but point is Real when fully fit is still quite better team than ours IMO.I wouldnt even count Liverpool as example when you compare to RM though Liverpool at the time were on top form with Suarez playing at the inhunam level of Ronaldo and Messi, we were not at our best and people expected us to sit deep and counter or even park the bus, but we pressed high, got in their faces and absolutely destroyed them, if we went into half time 3 or 4 goals up they could have had no complaints whatsoever. That's why I used them as an example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You can't dictate the tempo if your team isn't set up to. nadavTKL, Stingray, Viper22 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted May 30, 2015 Share Posted May 30, 2015 Cesc is useless in dictating the tempo in big games because we don't set up to dictate... You can't dictate the tempo if your team isn't set up to.Exactly, thats why he is useless. His main strength becomes unneccesary and you dont need such player on pitch then...However if you put lets say Verrattii in Cesc situation, Verrati would still make alot of impact with his agressivness, dribbling, holding the ball etc. Cesc on other hand will never hold the ball well under pressure which is big problem for team if that player is your key creator.

It's a trade off. For Mourinho's system in big games, Cesc definitely doesn't work in the pivot but IMO you can't blame him for that. He is the player he is.

Maybe it's not so obvious because he plays less long passes unlike Cesc who tries a lot of risky passes. Cesc complemented him in an interview saying he reminded him of Xavi, tells you a lot about the player.I think Fabregas is fantastic but his lack of atletic ability is the one thing that make him a step down from the likes of Xavi Iniesta etc.. however it's unfair to say he can't hold the ball under pressure. He's no Mata. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
