Popular Post! Styles 9,790 Posted June 3, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted June 3, 2014 When Eto'o was fully fit we looked a much better side compared to when Torres played, heck even Torres when he got those unconditional minutes before Ba arrived bagged 11, and he's an absolute clown.Im not saying Costa alone would suddenly turn us into Bayern, but i can't say he won't improve the team or his presence won't massively improve results because imo he will.Fair enough. We're ultimately saying the same things but in different ways. Of course Costa would be an upgrade on our current striking options - suggesting otherwise would be moronic - but our problems won't be solved by any one striker.

iseah100 5,612 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Okay, would he play in Oscar's position? Can Oscar play next to Matic in a pivot, or would we switch to a 4-3-3? Obviously you guys don't know, but what's your best guess? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 Guys that are saying that Mourinho is buying Cesc to replace Oscar... Didn't Mourinho say just a few weeks back that Oscar (and Hazard & Matic) are the future of this team?

Obviously you guys don't know, but what's your best guess?Fabregas should play in the pivot although Oscar if he's in midfield in a 4-3-3 or a 4-2-3-1 can always come from a deeper position..both formations can be fluid and interchange in games.i do not see him as a threat to Oscar's place atall tho.Having a world class keeper,a solid defensive back four and Matic infront of them is ample to keep the majority of teams we face out and let the other 5 to concentrate on attacking mostly.with just chipping in here and there defensively..e.g. pressing opposition defenders attempting to bring the ball from out the back etc. Barbara, iseah100 and zolayes 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don't understand the tactic of a back 4 shielded by 2 midfielders against a mid or lower table team playingwith 10 behind the ball .

Against top notch teams it makes sense, but vs the smaller clubs we need more creativity.Hazard-Costa-Willian Cesc Oscar Matic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mediator 2,026 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 You should have a look here Can Cesc Fabregas play in the pivot?

Duppy Conqueror 1,536 Posted June 3, 2014 Share Posted June 3, 2014 I saw plenty of Barca games and Spain games. I just dont see this guy as a pivot player. Sorry.To simplify his role.it will be as a center field midfielder..there are two types of player that each brings something different to the double pivot for it to work..Matic will be the one doing the shielding of the back 4,breaking up attacks..Fabregas will be the one feeding those infront of him. He's played that role well many of times in the past.He didn't play that role so much from the games i saw him play for Barcelona..tho when they play the same day as us i'm usually in transit coming from our game when they play.

LDN Blue 7,903 Posted June 4, 2014 Share Posted June 4, 2014 Is it wrong I primarily want this to happen to see the reaction of Arsenal fans to know we've now taken two of their gems?
