Nike 373 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Fuck off, you're a kid.Cesc> Modric>>>>> Thiago. Potential is all Thiago has. Atletic ability=passing ability? Uhh, Lukaku is athletic and can't pass to save his life. Just stop, dude.WOW... This board is so fickled.. When chelsea were playing barcelona in 2012, everyone said how much cesc sucked balls back than, but now that he plays for chelsea, hes god status.. However, last year when modric was rumored to chelsea, everyone was sucking his balls as the best cm in the world. I love how he is all potential when Cesc never started for barcelona on a consistent basis nor Spain (until he played false nine and even than ft9 was still starting) and captain a shit arsenal team, the same team that won nothing besides a fa cup in his tenure there...

Nike 373 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Cesc, Xavi, and Messi tend to play poorly against us.Im really interested to see how Cesc plays against a good team...Against city, I think he failed or was invisible.Arsenal he played well, but arsenal really isnt a good measuring stick that game..

Nike 373 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 I really hope Cesc can beat his record of 15 league goals.Give him pk duties and dont let schurrle take fks, cesc should be able to surpass it with the amount of games chelsea/cesc will play this season.

He's been doing so since the age of 18. Rambo, Stats, iseah100 and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lionsden 4,689 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 It's all about systems. If Silva was in our system would he be as effective? Mata would flourish at City.this further confirms my suspicion that Silva is one of the most underrated players in world football. There's no player better than him at what he does in the world. (maybe iniesta before he lost his form). He's one of the very few players I have seen that controls the tempo of the game like prime Xavi. iseah100, OhForAGreavsie and Myself 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Victor Von Doom 258 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Granted Thiago is a great young player w all the potential in the world, but he's better than Cesc? Rly?Nike cannot be srs!!! iseah100 and 11Drogba 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cesc executed Jose's instructions to perfection vs City.Besides he is already proven a million times vs all PL teams (good and bad). He played for Arsenal remember? iseah100 and Barbara 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 Two reasons that sometimes make me hate living in North America, I can't watch the UCL games, and there is nobody on talkchelsea when I'm here lol.Anyways,WOW... This board is so fickled.. When chelsea were playing barcelona in 2012, everyone said how much cesc sucked balls back than, but now that he plays for chelsea, hes god status.. However, last year when modric was rumored to chelsea, everyone was sucking his balls as the best cm in the world. I love how he is all potential when Cesc never started for barcelona on a consistent basis nor Spain (until he played false nine and even than ft9 was still starting) and captain a shit arsenal team, the same team that won nothing besides a fa cup in his tenure there... Has Thiago magically played on consistent basis for Spain or Barca that somehow makes him a better player than Cesc? No. Again, you can talk about Thiago's potential all you want but the fact that Fabregas is miles ahead of Thiago leaves no question behind. Thiago as a 23 year old is not comparable to Cesc at 23, let alone being comparable to what Cesc is now. I don't need any Youtube videos to prove that. The amount of disagreement you've been getting speaks for itself. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Viper22 2,418 Posted October 14, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted October 14, 2014 I almost feel sorry for Nike. At least he's trying to argue his side of the point... And tbh I think he's doing a good job considering the complete lack of evidence available suggesting that Thiago>Cesc...

Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted October 14, 2014 Share Posted October 14, 2014 You can see it.... neymar never played for barca, but barca were willing to spend big because everyone knew neymar was the best young player in the world.In spain, especially catalonia, thiago was the best kid to come out of the academy since messi.thiago specialized in one touch football, something barca excels at, something cesc never excel at... Just because he had better stats, doesnt make him the better player for a specific system..Dude the past few days have not been good to you... Your credibility has taken a real hit the last few days. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wrote in another thread that Americans love comparing players. This is like watching ESPN or Fox sports. Tactics, systems and analysis are like heavy math to them and they can barely do basic math.

11Drogba 2,000 Posted October 15, 2014 Share Posted October 15, 2014 Come on, this was completely unnecessary...Not as unnecessary as the stuff that Nike writes in every thread. Check out the last pages of the thread for Reus for example. iseah100 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
