kiwi1691 255 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Yeah this calndar year (2015) he did absolutely nothing to stay in a team and use Ruben's place.Because we have used him poorly. 4-2-3-1 is the wrong formation. It would be cool to see Guus play Ruben in a midfield 3 with Cesc and Matic It would be stupid to sell him now without getting the new coach first.Cess is still a good player. He is just to old to teach new tricks like been a more defensive player. If for instance we get a coach like Conte or Conte himself and Cesc gets a formation with quality energetic ball playing midfielders screening Cesc and doing the defensive duties like they did for Pirlo, Cesc would a vital asset for years. His skill craft does not rely on speed or power but intelligence just like Pirlo and he can last for almost another 10 years playing top quality football. The emphasizes is on solid, BALL PLAYING CREATIVE AND ENERGETIC MIDFIELDERS not just average players with athletic physical gifts but extremely poor technical skillsI stole this quote from weaintgotnohistory. stroey and The Skipper 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kiwi1691 255 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 If we were to sell him, what playmaker would you propose we bring in to replace him, or do you propose we have a midfield that is all physicality and no technical skill?

Maybe I'm wrong but I just don't think he's a luxury we can afford right now. didierforever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post! Barbara 15,149 Posted December 28, 2015 Popular Post! Share Posted December 28, 2015 Yeah this calndar year (2015) he did absolutely nothing to stay in a team and use Ruben's place.Ruben's place? You mean the player that hasn't been even getting a spot in the bench.Don't blame Cesc for things that are beyond his power, aren't related to him and that haven't looked likely in the first place.We should keep him because a player with his potential, given the right condition can produce a lot for us still. He just shouldn't be our only option.Bring another very creative player either for the wings or CAM and bench him or play Ramires in a 4-3-3 to give them support.You know the even better option? Buy an amazing, physical, complete MD and keep him ahead of him and Matic, with Hazard, and two more attackers (could even keep Costa as the striker) and we already take several steps up.Players such as Matic and Fabregas - who are completely out of form or far from their best - should be kept in the squad because they showed what they can do on their very best, and not for a match or two but for prolonged streaks of time. Cesc only stopped playing after the whole team started to fall apart and stopped playing. He isn't the guy to turn things around, it doesn't mean he's useless. Selling him would be silly imo. bethos1, kiwi1691, Stats and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
johnnythefirst 1,076 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Let him leave and give Musonda a couple of chances on his spot. Seriously, how can he be worse? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue_Fox_ 2,086 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Let him leave and give Musonda a couple of chances on his spot. Seriously, how can he be worse?Lol. Musonda in a 2 man midfield? That might work at Anderlecthcht or in some other weaker league. Rather give the spot to Rlc, more of a presence.Let Musonda play at number 10 or on the wings, that's where he belongs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
didierforever 7,349 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 so basically, it matic's fault for not being good in defence, its chelsea's fault for not having a "proper box-to-box", or having the right formation, or this or that. but it is NEVER EVER cesc's fault. hahahahha.

Styles 9,790 Posted December 28, 2015 Share Posted December 28, 2015 Did anybody, at any point during today's game, think to themselves: "We could really do with Fabregas here."Because I didn't. didierforever 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhino's Skin 972 Posted December 29, 2015 Share Posted December 29, 2015 Did anybody, at any point during today's game, think to themselves: "We could really do with Fabregas here."Because I didn't. not quite....but with Utd pushing up I felt him and Costa combined could have exploited their back line, but he would have needed protection from Matic and Mikel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A top team just can't afford to have him in the starting XI and I can't imagine he'd be happy to rot on the bench... LDN Blue 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He came in, helped deliver the title for one season, then became a huge liability to the squad, and needs to be sold. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Hybrid Angel 2,130 Posted January 3, 2016 Share Posted January 3, 2016 Normally he's shite in games like this but he was very good today and strong against their pressing. They couldn't get near him in the second half. Muzchap, Beepu and Stats 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
