Backstreet09 499 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 LOL @ Ba , he looked completely off color , could had scored a couple if he had not shown his lazy stuff todayy. I love how people brings Torres pace to everything , but damn Ba is way slower than him even if Torres has lost a yard of his pace XD and It's note worthing that whether is BA or TORRES , our so called creative midfield doesnt likes to play and pass the striker and uhm Brentford were unfortunate , they deserved that goal .

He wasn't lazy today, he wasn't as effective because of how deep the brentford defence was sitting for the most part. He did create more space for those behind him though through ATTEMPTING those runs, something which torres hasn't done for a long time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was sleeping most of the time , if he had reacted a bit quicker or like a normal central forward XD . I can bet he could had a couple of goals , that ivanovich header and those 2 chances where he only had to touch the freaking ball Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can bet he could had a couple of goals , that ivanovich header and those 2 chances where he only had to touch the freaking ball My point is that he can make an impact without touching the ball. When mata/oscar/hazard/moses get the ball with space in front of them they run into it. Demba ba then runs along the line and moves and trys to run in behind. He was unsuccessful in terms of recieving and latching onto a pass today however when he runs forward he occupys 1 or 2 defenders and drags them out of position providing more space for the man behind and providing him with another option. Compare that with torres on thursday, he would drop deep which would slow down the tempo of our attack and mean that their defenders can keep their shape. It also means that we have no one in the box creating that option.In both examples neither player touches the ball but Ba does a lot more for the team.

YouNameIt 1,511 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 Nothing surprising really.

NishC300 1,865 Posted February 17, 2013 Share Posted February 17, 2013 The guy in the orange coat behind the goal is me! Wow cool u have a picture? Nothing surprising really. We put our strongest team out there against a league one team.Im very glad about the win obviousley, but it takes a whole other opposition for a win like this to impress me.Exactly. Yea sure it's a good win but the two factors that r worrying r that why did we even have to get to the situation of a replay and i wouldn't be surprised if Rafa played our best side against Prague! Cole and Ivanovic shouldn't have played it would have been better to play Azpi and Bertrand. Mikel should have got a few minutes to regain his fitness as he's likely to start against City. Still it's just some shit league one side. We've not even had one complete utterly dominant win for a while.

Jase 43,479 Posted February 17, 2013 Author Share Posted February 17, 2013 Have to say the ITV coverage for the game was an embarrassment! The biasness and wankfest over Brentford were disgraceful and it was pretty clear from the start who they desperately wanted to win and it certainly wasn't the team in blue.
