The only place to be 11,313 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Willian really is the Mikel of wingers.Willian is to dribbling what Mikel is to passing.On the surface they look good, until you realise they aren't actually going anywhere.

The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Bring on Schurrle! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dion 2,476 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 We're controlling the game well but there's some directness lacking. Either Ramires or Cesc must advance further up the pitch and join Costa. There's this huge gap in the middle. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jusek 2,031 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Drogba coming on, just keep Torres on the bench. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bethos1 802 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Schurrle instead of Ramires pls. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Look how far up the pitch Luis is getting. You would never see Azpi that far up so regularly. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmax 9,219 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Forget the goal (don't!), but DC has put in a top all round centre forward performance tonight. Looking good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue-in-me-Veins 4,067 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Rambo looks so comfortable back in CM in a 433, maybe pre-season but you gotta agree he looks 'at home' in that role Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kieran. 6,317 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Look how far up the pitch Luis is getting. You would never see Azpi that far up so regularly.Even on the right, he's a bit timid to go forward. Hopefully he learns a few things from Luis on how to successfully balance attack and defense.

There's this huge gap in the middle.Spot on.The first half was direct, fast, bold.This half has been like how many games from last season???Schurrle and Oscar off, Ramires and Willian on is the reason why.

Barbara 15,149 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Wililan has been awful... the weak link in this match. Even Ramires has been better Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
samzilla 517 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 so they're using the point system for this tourney, but what about the final? if it finishes nil-nil does it go to goal differential for the tiebreaker? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Madmax 9,219 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 It's a completely routine football occurrence but so bad was last season that I get genuinely excited whenever the LB crosses the halfway line. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was this huge hole between Willian and Hazard and behind Costa most of the time and it was affecting our build-up in the final third due to lack of passing options.

Hopefully he learns a few things from Luis on how to successfully balance attack and defense.Tbh I don't mind it. I like it when one fullback is more reserved whilst the other is more attacking. It leaves 3 players at the back, which is more solid.Azpi is ok going forward though, but hopefully he does pick up 1 or 2 things from Filipe Luis.

The Skipper 20,609 Posted August 8, 2014 Share Posted August 8, 2014 Filipe Luis is going to be such a problem with Hazard, can't wait. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
