oh the sexy and beautiful football

Indeed. Maybe it's really impossible to achieve both. I'd rather win, personally.

oh the sexy and beautiful football bayern played yesterday. such a joy to watch.

the first 16 minutes when pep the genius, the football saviour was playing 3-4-3 with boateng-rafinha-benatia against neymar-suarez-messi was just fabulous. i mean such a footbal is such a joy to watch. probably our college manager has more understanding and tactical nuance than pep the saviour.

i feel so blessed that pep rejected us, even if it meant three-fourth a season of benitez. thank you god.

To be honest we just can't complete with elite clubs like Bayern,Real,Barca maybe even Juve. Mourinho simply need more World Class players (who can create and score fantastic goals) We can park the bus as usual, but we must be Deadly, best counter-attacking team to able to beat everyone. To do this we must sign something special this summer 2-3 WC players like 1. Varane 2. Bale/Griezmaan and maybe Koke (Pogba too expensive). .

People thought bayern will stand against Barcelona but the team with the better attacking quality won.

When you have a poor attack compared to your rivals, attacking them by making the game open and end to end for the sake of football is stupid. The higher quality attackers will always win in this situation. Only defend and counter can win most of the time.

All of a sudden, guardiola has no messi in attack and no robben and he can't get a shot on target. If we want to challenge the top four teams, we must have 3 high quality goalscoring players in attack while the midfielders must be quality passers with technical quality.

Maybe Gary neville was right, we may need bale on our right and Koke in midfield to put our team in the Champions League elite and scare the life out of teams with

Hazard - costa - bale/reus

Coming at their defense in full force.

Reus is more creative and IMO the medical staff here will probably negate most of his injury troubles

And he'll be cheaper. Much cheaper.

Not that I expect Mou spend more on the RW unless we get an outrageous bid for one of Oscar or Willian.

[Adnane 1,101]

But Reus isn't good on RW, he plays at the left.

If azpi could play in left back, I believe mou could make reus play in the rw.

[stroey 2,525]

It's not even a problem.

Reus plays 10/LW superbly, let him interchange with Hazard+Willian during the game.

Reus-Eden-Willian

Eden-Reus-Willian

Reus-Willian-Eden

Eden-Willian-Reus

And more

All possible set ups are good with these 3.

Reus played RW for borussia mönchengladbach and got into the team of the year in 2012 as a RW.

Since his move to Dortmund he's played numerous positions all across the front line.

As a ST, LW, RW, CAM. He's the man i feel we need to complement Hazard imo.

Well said. Mourinho knows how to set up his team but also how to cancel the tactics of the opposing team, which is even more important. On the other hand doing the former is all Pep knows.

Be intresting to see if he now gets a Manager of the month award..surely its his turn

They'll probably give it to Nigel Pearson.

[Pacquiao 1,834]

Imagine If Mourinho still doesnt win Manager of the Month for April

when you realise Mourinho still didnt win Manager of the Month for April!

[Jase 43,479]

They'll probably give it to Nigel Pearson.

As expected, Nigel Pearson won the Manager of the Month for April...

[RoyalBlues 4,050]

[zolayes 14,489]

OMG I thought people were joking about Pearson...should have gone to Carver

[Bir_CFC 3,455]

I'd have given to Pearson myself too. I mean Leicester got pretty much half their entire wins of the season in April. Dragged themselves out of relegation.

Jose loses out on these because they expect him (Chelsea) to win pretty much every match. So even if he goes unbeaten in the league, they'll say yeah it's Jose, what do you expect? Jose will win manager of the season though, easily.
