Popular Post! Gilvorak 3,734 Posted April 3, 2014 Popular Post! Share Posted April 3, 2014 Blaming tonight's performance solely on the strikers is a poor excuse. Cavani and Ibra both had shit games tonight and yet they still outclassed us.Signing Cavani or Costa is not magically going to improve our build up play, ability to break down packed defenses, decision making in the final third and crossing.There's a reason Drogba had by far his best season under Ancelotti rather than Jose.

thekid9 418 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 we have everything he needs Oscar,hazard,willian,salad,schurrle.. barring a striker, how often do we actually get the ball to our strikers? hardly ever, so why not? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Belgiannutt 3,201 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 Even if we sign a striker, we will still be stuck with Jose's style of football.....Having a striker that can actually hold on to a ball is pretty important no matter what style of football you play.

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 No manager is perfect and Mou surely has to take some of the blame that our form has depreciated in this final part of the season, with onyl 1 out of 7 away wins. That problem to motivate his players in the very crucial moment was also evident last year in Madrid. Let's hope he has not lost his touch and bounces back.

His not won anything in 2 years by the way1. How you would call 8 years without winning anything then?2. Fixing our scoring problems meaning getting someone up their who can score. Unless you suggest Mourinho goes on he pitch and does it himself3.

Vybz Kartel 1,613 Posted April 3, 2014 Share Posted April 3, 2014 As a manager he has regressed from his time at CFC the first time round, his been tactically outwitted quite a few times of late.

A solid proof is how much better hazard plays when eto is up front. You guys don't know how much difference a striker on drogbas level gives us. It can make a weak 2012 team win the champions league because of vital goals and presence instead of disappearing acts like torres.

It would put them under pressure, drag them out of position, keep them honest, not allow them to cheat up, not give them such an easy ride....I just don't see how people can't see that the lack of a proper striker compresses the space because defences push up and don't have to worry about balls behind. Eto'o at least provides interplay options and makes the right runs (even if his body doesn't quite allow him to reach the ball). Case in point - Azpi plays the ball right across the six yard box on Saturday and Torres simply doesn't make the run 99% of strikers run. As for Ancelotti, he was the guy who gave his blessing to sign Torres so easy on the praise when it comes to his magical ability to make strikers work.

That was Romans Mafia flexing our power at a time when we were the current 'money bags' of the scene. Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was a poor one to be fair. But just just before he delivered it, the camera angle was wide enough to capture all our players in the box. Willian was running in, Hazard running in, Torres ( being fresh and should have the flair to change things) was walking. Don't know the defender that was with him, but he didn't seem worried. darrus, The only place to be, Fernando and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
