Ryan Fong 2,776 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 We have to beat City to win the trophy anyway so it really doesn't matter we face them in the semi or the final. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,141 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 What a free kick that was. It overall was solid but for me matic was immense, everything went through him and he just did the basics well and everything perfect. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TrippingStep 336 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 The scoreline doesn't tell the story of this match.What a joy (except for our finishing that is, although we were unlucky with two balls in the post). That was a great performance from our attacking players, but also an immense debut by Matic. Playing just a few minutes against ManUtd wouldn't do it for him, ofc, but he was flawless there.Oscar and Hazard were on fire and I particularly want to highlight Oscar's character in the response from the Mata transfer. A lot of people will look at him as the guy who's displaced Mata from the team (which is only partially true, it was more the system than Oscar) and they'll demand from him to up his level in the attack to justify Mata leaving the team.I said it in the Mata thread (I guess, or maybe it was Oscar's), but this is the boy who at age 21 took Brazil's #10 shirt and position and controlled our midfield - especially in the Confed's Cup. This boy is mature beyond his years and he doesn't walk away from challenges, but face them as a man. I'm really happy with his response and I think maybe now he'll play even better without the pressure and the responsibility of benching Mata in the process. I think he'll play more carefree and he won't even acknowledge the pressure.Hazard was incredible, as usual. His easiness to pass by as many defenders as if it was a cake walk is astonishing. I do hope we give him a new contract soon and pay him a ridiculous wage. I don't want him to be even tempted to leave and I'm thankful we have Thorgan. Somehow I think he'd love to play by his brother's side in a few years, as he seems absolutely proud of him. Sign Killian already, Roman, just to make sure we give him enough reasons to stay edit: and we were fucked in the draw. City at the Etihad... FMLThat's what I'm hoping for Oscar that Mata exit free his mind as on some matches he was rushing too much in attack, trying to do too much.

TrippingStep 336 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 One of our best games of the year easily. Score is deceptive. We dominated them. I bet their backline needed oxygen at half time as they had to do so many last ditche tackle lol. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted January 26, 2014 Share Posted January 26, 2014 Gave my MOTM to Ashley Cole. His best game of the season IMO, linked up brilliantly with Hazard on the left. Please keep it up Ash. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
