TrippingStep 336 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Has been mightily impressive since we signed him, and the board deserve some credit for picking him up at such a decent price.Yes and I were glad we signed him. He's so much better than Debuchy and Van Der Wiel. Muzchap 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muzchap 8,966 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 Yup he was awesome yesterday and such a big smile - think that really helps Moses needs to learn a bit more about wing play, Dave was always in acres of space and Moses kept running towards him instead of beyond the last defender - was very frustrating and wished Marin had been given a chanceHe looks a good crosser and gets the ball in early and that's what we need One of the best value signings we've ever made - reminds me of Chappie - dependable and solid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DH1988 1,348 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 One thing he could improve on is his speed of distribution, just get the ball in quick like Torres' first goal, sometimes he delays too much, thats really my only fault for him at the moment..

Styles 9,790 Posted December 24, 2012 Share Posted December 24, 2012 One thing he could improve on is his speed of distribution, just get the ball in quick like Torres' first goal, sometimes he delays too much, thats really my only fault for him at the moment..Torres is hardly ever available or in a good enough position for Azpilicueta or whoever else to play an early ball like he did yesterday. No point just kicking the ball in there if you have nobody to aim at. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 http://soccernet.espn.go.com/news/story/_/id/1277631/cesar-azpilicueta:-marseille-spell-readied-me-for-chelsea-pressure?cc=4716Chelsea's Cesar Azpilicueta has hailed his two-year spell in the footballing goldfish bowl of Marseille as the ideal preparation to help him handle the must-win mentality at Chelsea.Azpilicueta, 23, arrived at the Stade Velodrome from Osasuna in 2010 as a relative unknown, and may have remained so in a city where the unforgiving fervour of OM's supporters has seen a number of players with bigger reputations sink into obscurity.However, the Spain Under-21 international's quality quickly became apparent, as he won over even the most fickle of fans by dealing comfortably with the step up from Pamplona, and he is now putting that experience to good use following his switch to Stamford Bridge."It's more physical here [than in France], and the rhythm is higher. Sometimes, in the second half, it's a little bit mad. But my two years at OM have helped me adapt. The pressure is the same," Azpilicueta told L'Equipe."At Marseille, we had to win every game. At Chelsea too. The difference is that here we play to win each and every trophy. I came here for that, and to grow as a player."The opportunities to progress for a man who ostensibly arrived in west London as cover for Branislav Ivanovic were initially limited. Azpilicueta had to wait until early October before finally making his Premier League debut, but he has since made eight further appearances in the English top flight."I didn't play a lot in the first couple of weeks, but that's normal," he said. "When you arrive at the European champions, you don't expect to be a first-team regular that quickly. I've worked hard to be able to hope to do that."Just only remembered earlier that Sunday's 8-0 win over Aston Villa was his 1st win in 7 Premier league starts for the club.

Peppen 934 Posted December 26, 2012 Share Posted December 26, 2012 That guy... Turns me on. I'm not feeling comfortable looking into his deep, shadowy eyes, but there' something about them.. They tell a story... Of lust and hunger. I like it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrippingStep 336 Posted December 28, 2012 Share Posted December 28, 2012 The best transfer this year for the best right back in ligue1 the last years.And Ivanovic can play in his best position.The defense can play higher with a bit more agression with him on right back as he's rarely beaten by his opponents.

TheTrueOlympique 2 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 Enjoy Azpi...He was a gift from Olympique de Marseille's president and manager with the will to sell(I don't want to say "sell off" ) Deschamps's players.This player was the best right back in Ligue 1 (Debuchy ? Jallet, Reveillère ? lel..)£7m is really a gift. Azpi will be the best right back of BPL and future Roja's right back it's inevitable.Take care of Azpi (El cohete ) he is a king Mufassir08 and The only place to be 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teignman 441 Posted December 30, 2012 Share Posted December 30, 2012 So glad we got him instead of Debuchy or Maicon. He's still got some rough edges, but he's young and talented. Bosnian Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rubber bullets 1,183 Posted December 31, 2012 Share Posted December 31, 2012 Bad game yesterday for me, struggled.No worse then Ashley Cole, who I feel has been lackluster the last few games but won't get much call outs about it.
