Sheva. 5,373 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Odd response. That's like saying Chelsea in the Abramovich era were very offensive because they broke the PL goal record in 09/10.Not really. A 'defensive' tag is surely not right on a team that scored 119 goals, and he said his team were more balanced than defensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Pardon me for being an idiot and perhaps even paranoid here but what did Mata mean when he said they are training more movements statically? Statically?!!Even Seb also said that he think it's statically too..Sébastien @SeBlueLion @jayblues8 @CarefreeSam That's statically I think, how to position yourselves on the pitch to create triangles Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A 'defensive' tag is surely not right on a team that scored 119 goals, and he said his team were more balanced than defensive.My point was he was in charge of Liverpool for six years so you don't just point at one season.They were indeed balanced.

Jase 43,479 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 He called him "the other guy that came with him (Rafa)"Wouldn't read or even bother too much about that personally.WHAT?It was in the 09/10 season. Liverpool were playing catch up in trying to finish in 4th. They were drawing 1-1 then at Birmingham and desperately needing the points but Benitez took Torres off midway through the 2nd half and replaced him with N'Gog leading to Gerrard looking rather bemused at the substitution.

Slam Dunk 1,442 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 I heard 'tactically', but Mata's accent might be disguising it as something else. Also thought he said 'persons who came with him', referring to Zenden, the fitness guy and the analyst, not 'person' which makes it sound like he doesn't know who Bolo is.

BlueSanti 290 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Just substitute Gerrard with Mata in that situation there. C'mon Mata is a clever guy. Sure Fernando is one of his closest friends but he must know he is not good enought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fulham Broadway 17,339 Posted November 23, 2012 Share Posted November 23, 2012 Everyone to have managed Chelsea by 2014CHELSEA FC has confirmed that everybody in the UK will have a chance to manage their club over the next two years.The main quality Margaret Gerving wants in a player is politenessEngland’s longest-running farce has drawn up a schedule of 15-minute managerial appointments, starting with 78-year-old Margaret Gerving from Carlisle, who will oversee the first part of Sunday’s match against Manchester City.The huge rota will begin as soon as Chelsea staff find Rafael Benitez, who is currently hiding somewhere in Stamford Bridge with the keys to the main entrance and all the forks from the canteen stuffed into his coat pockets.Margaret Gerving said: “My grandson puts the football on sometimes when he comes to visit and that’s given me enough insight to know that Torres can fucking whistle if he thinks he’s starting up front.“I will be starting that nice Ashley Cole, though. Beautiful manners and immaculately turned out, he is. It’s a mystery no nice young lady has snapped him up.”Each sacking will be accompanied by a six-figure payout and it’s hoped that Chelsea can drag the country out of recession by the time the first few million people have been sent on gardening leave.Employed people will be allowed to manage the club during their lunch hour and the under-fives will be given overnight slots which are anticipated to be quiet, apart from the occasional Travelodge-related incident.A Chelsea spokesman said: “I don’t have the full list of forthcoming managers to hand but I can tell you that Sven Goran Eriksson is about 62 millionth.” Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
