The Skipper 20,609 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Tonight showed how desperately we need to switch to Luis-JT-Ivan-Dave at the back.I'd like to see this too. Luis was awesome today, definitely our best left back. Barbara 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Very impressive as expected. The guy is easily one of the best LB's in Europe right now. The Azpilicueta LB thing has lost its novelty and it has to go. He's not even as solid as he once was and of course offers nothing in attack. It's become pointless now that we have Filipe Luis in our team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted September 17, 2014 Author Share Posted September 17, 2014 Good performance tonight. Those crosses though...they were something else. Refreshing and delicious. Tonight showed how desperately we need to switch to Luis-JT-Ivan-Dave at the back.I wouldn't say we desperately need to switch to that back 4 but I definitely would love to see that happen.

Oh wait. Just saw it's Ivanovic in that CB position with Terry. Thought it was Cahill and Ivanovic taken out completely. If that's the case, then the desperateness just increased to 75%.

Daniel1980 1,425 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Luis definitely impressed. Was good both defensively and offensively. I think he deserves to start. Ivanovic at CB to replace Cahill. zolayes, Barbara and Chelsea Legend 11 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DYC. 7,542 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 I'm expecting Cahill to end up in the crowd one of these days.The definition of average.Mourinho should put a collar on him and shock him whenever he backs up too much. But then again, Mourinho would probably end up killing him. Styles, BlueLion., Barbara and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Chels 2,502 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Azpi should be competing with Ivanovic for the RB spot. Luis is our best full-back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Glad he is playing well today. Good now we have a competition at the back 4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barbara 15,149 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 The only bad thing about getting Iva to play CB is that it's going to be a waste to lose him attacking... Can't Azpili be a CB instead? LuÃs was superb, my MOTM by a mile (although to be fair, Hazard was also brilliant, so not exactly a mile). Defensively he was as solid as we know he can be, and he can cross like a magician. That cross from nearly the midfield line straight to Drogba's head was a beauty.I'd start him against City...

Chelsea Legend 11 4,062 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 Thought he looked decent in the chances he had to make a play. Agree with the notion that his ascendancy should put pressure on Cahill, with Brana more than capable of playing CB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barbara 15,149 Posted September 17, 2014 Share Posted September 17, 2014 guys, that's why I added the at the end of that sentence. I am, of course, joking around, although I do think it's a waste to move Iva to CB now, but if that's what will get our defense better, than just do it. I trust the other guys in the attack.

iseah100 5,612 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Luis is the best lb in the world. What's with people wanting to drop Cahill though? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People are suggesting Iva at CB in his place and Luis + Azpi as the fullbacks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RoyalBlues 4,050 Posted September 18, 2014 Share Posted September 18, 2014 Cahill got a not so good performance today. People are suggesting Iva at CB in his place and Luis + Azpi as the fullbacks.Cahill still one of the best CB imo. To drop him against City and put Ivan instead would be shocking. If Luis preferred, might to assume either Ivan or Azpi will be on the bench. But I am still thinking our back 4 will remain the same as against Swansea.
