Rom2013 446 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Great first half. Good combinations in counter attack, we had almost the same chances that they had, we are winning and in defense we are doing things really good.They are better then us but I think we have a great chance to win this game.

Sheva. 5,373 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Amazing work-rate, will need to make good changes around 65 mins though, just to keep the same energy going. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bluesman2610 1,417 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 From what I read Torres trying to play for his place in the team with arrival of Eto'o Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nachikethas 1,154 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 So you want us to play beautiful and lose 7-0?holding the ball doesn't mean attack all the time. Want to have discipline for sure not run all the pitch am thinking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NishC300 1,865 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Hazard's making Bayern defenders look like clowns. (Dante even looks like one) ;p Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stingray 9,441 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Fucking hell. Oscar's done a briilliant job at pressing. it's not all about passing and scoring ffs.Don't get mad Padawan! But I feel you have a liking for defending and control. I am raised in the age of cattenacio AND total (attacking) football. Check that out. Defense is great, control is great, but if you only take into account the movement of the other party, you are always second. It is like when I play chess. If I start and look at my defense too much. I lose the initiative and chase a whole game long. We did that against ManU, now less. It is more than just a feel. It is a genuine football vision. God, I love Total Football.

Barbara 15,149 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 I know I sound like a bitch... but where are the people criticizing the formation (not the lineup)?Where are the people calling Mourinho names?This was a great first by us. Of course we can lose, that's not the point, my point is only to prove Mourinho isn't some clown who doesn't know a thing about football as some suggested with some sort of posts before the match.So with the proper time to sharpen this formation and with the addition of Mata, Willian, Eto'o, the prospect only gets better.Give the man some credit and some time.

Ryan Fong 2,776 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 why? does that make up for him being consistently shit for 2 1/2 years?Oh come on! Can we just celebrate the goal and admit it's a fucking fantastic strike from Torres?! 99% of you guys shot him down or even curse him before the match, shouldn't you just shut up and enjoy the goal? You can say whatever you like when he sucked and can't appreciate his good efforts? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mustafa 885 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 If I remember correctly, before the game people were saying our team selection is shite ! Honestly, I was one of them... But its Jose man. !! Its Jose ! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gil 28 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Good defensive performance. Schurrle, Oscar have put in decent shifts and even Hazard has come leaps and bounds in his defensive discipline/understanding.One thing I've noticed is a lot of the 50-50's are being won by Bayern players tonight. Luck or better fitness?Just need another decent counter attacking opportunity in the 2nd half looks like Bayern might concede another.Essien/Mikel for Lampard and Lukaku for Torres depending on the circumstances.

Stingray 9,441 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 well should we play him? the way torres is playing atm?To give him minutes of course. Btw Torres isn't THAT great besides the goal. When are you gonna play him otherwise? He can do it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Solid in defense, threatening on the counter. Happy with that first-half overall everyone is doing their job. Schurrle has been a menace on the rw. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CHOULO19 24,332 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 Still can't wrap my head around why Frank starts, but Jose's tactics...just brilliant. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NishC300 1,865 Posted August 30, 2013 Share Posted August 30, 2013 No true. I've heard plenty of our chants throughout the game.Wrote this near the beginning of the game.We were being outsung and even after we scored, it was still mainly Bayern fans.
