Rmpr 8,977 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Schurrle as ST? Lampard? Btw, Hazard/Oscar/KDB, looks like Jose didnt wait until January to drop Mata! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

hjperdeath 2,226 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 no he didnt. he played LW for leverkusen.He has appeared in the no.9 role, and the 9 and 1/2 role when he was asked to. Even when on paper he was LW, he has gone on to exchange positions mid-way. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zolayes 14,489 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 FFS show SOME faith in our coach .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray 9,441 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Genius move by mourinho, starting lukaku (our topscorer in pre season) on the bench for the third time in a row while playing torres ba and now schrulle instead of him. Must be great for the lad. I'd be looking for another loan at this point if I were Lukaku. Really a shame. Why?? This obviously a tactical thing ..... Why would this shatter Lukaku? The lad is a football encyclopedia ... he knows when a tactical thing is being put in place. If it is the good one ... that remains to be seen. It sure as hell isn't boring :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JayC 171 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 I've learnt to never doubt Mourinho. He's playing this way for some reason. Maybe the game will tell the story. Then again he could just have so little faith in his strikers he's felt forced into these tactics.I wouldn't worry about the line-up though he knows what he's doing.I don't fancy your chances of stopping our attack mind - so you're gonna need a couple of goals from somewhere i think. If i question one thing - it's the inclusion of Schurrle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chopchop 68 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 This. Must be devastating. Asking extra training to be in top form against man u, scored a hattrick against them last season, scored every 48 minutes in pre season, and now is being benched for someone who had an awefull pre season and is playing out of position. should of went on loan. There's still a week left in the window. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kish9 50 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 This should decide who is higher in the pecking order for strikers, who comes on as a sub? Torres or lukaku? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Goemaere 131 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 This ain't Lukaku FC. Can we at least wait until the game is being played before we start slagging everyone off and being negativeYou do know players have feelings and unlike on fifa they can exualy be gutted because of shit like this? Our youth academy must be happy that after 10 years of abramovic none of them plays in XI line up or is on the bench. Even 100mil a season madrid does better. beside terry who was bought on the age of 15 from west ham. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Toli 977 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 He has appeared in the no.9 role, and the 9 and 1/2 role when he was asked to. Even when on paper he was LW, he has gone on to exchange positions mid-way.kießling was the striker for leverkusen the whole season. Schürrle is just someone who cuts inside from the wing. you wouldnt call robben a striker because he does so? schürrle was clearly playing on the left wing, while moving to the middle when he had the opportunity.

JDY 1,290 Posted August 26, 2013 Share Posted August 26, 2013 Will have to wait and see how it plays out.I'm assuming that Andre's workrate and the fact that on the counters he will be a big threat was enough to convince Jose. Can see Schurrle and Oscar doubling up on Carrick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh god cutting inside is different. This is direct approach into the final third and staying there for long periods like a normal #.9 or sometimes dropping back like a #10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
