Muzchap 8,966 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Guys we have won ugly before But there's a few new faces and the Willian injury, Hazard destroyed his confidence But we are 2-0 upOscar is as good as a new signing - looks sharp and on itBabba settling in well - good to get the first under his belt RLC looking sharp and playing it steady Just need Mou to work on THIS team - and not be afraid to rotate Look at the hunger and desire of the new guys coming in.This is what we have been missing Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parky 739 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 He's on the pitch playing like he's 38...and in a friendly.Haha I was being sarcastic. His hiding today like usual. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueStorm1003 539 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 How has he been any better than Costa? Matic? If they have been dropped then so should he. He needs to be dropped as well as Fabregas.I think the difference is that Costa has been focusing more on fighting with others (Not this match), Fabregas just doesn´t seem to give a crap anymore. I think Matic looks worse than he is because he is basically the only one defending, as Fabregas isn´t the greatest player when it comes to the defense, although can´t say he hasn´t been playing bad.With Hazard, you just can see that he no longer feels confident enough to take on players and take shots when the space is there.Nonetheless, all of them need us to chant their names as if they were playing like fucking heroes. I just feel Eden needs it a bit more.Just my opinion though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jase 43,479 Posted September 16, 2015 Author Share Posted September 16, 2015 Poor first half really despite having that 2-0 lead. I know confidence isn't high right now but Maccabi Tel-Aviv were so bad and we got dragged down to their level. Barely created any clear cut chances. Attacking play was ponderous, slow and players not on the same page. We also looked defensively dodgy on 1-2 occasions but luckily weren't punished.

Muzchap 8,966 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Average..Dude he's been better than average! Unfair _ first game in a high pressure environment - he's doing well.very composed Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Finaly something positive. Baba bit rash at times, but very promising. RLC and Oscar did great job so far. Remy added pace in attack and Willian was great before injury. Defense was solid, but maccabi didnt test us much anyway.Hazard and moreso Cesc poor again. Need to get benched sooner or later to get their bite back.Come on, one more goal in second and Ill be happy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beepu 1,714 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Hazard has been terrible, looked like he's got all his confidence sucked out of him. On the bright side, RLC is looking good. And no Ivanovic, which is always good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gilvorak 3,734 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Oscraque back and we start to resemble a football team again...but but Maccabi are awful yet we got smashed by Red Bulls Youth team this season and our best player has been woeful against the same team.Jose must be seriously considering dropping Matic for RLC by the way. Ridiculously good performance. Cahill also impressive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

didierforever 7,349 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 RLC is bossing. baba has made some mistakes, but looks decent. hopefully we can pass him more. his overlaps have been totally disregarded so far.cesc is still doing his houdini act.with the pressure off, hopefully, we can now really get into it.

BlueLyon 9,359 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Also that GK Rajkovic, how many more fouls he needs to make to get booked? First on Willian, then RLC. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeboii 1,844 Posted September 16, 2015 Share Posted September 16, 2015 Loftus-Cheek has been great with nice passing and dribbling. However, the defending is not his forté.Baba has been good. Maybe a few bad passes, one which was very dangerous for us. Oscar has been good as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
