Roquila 1,335 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 What a first half! Costa is no doubt the best striker in the prem with the control he has on the ball it's almost hazard like. Ivanovic is such a beast! His crosses always hit one of our players. Pedro is so go... Nvm, he's so bad even sarcasm won't work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,958 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Some cash should be splashed and some new signings should be done during the break, that's how awful some performed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivanovic does not deserve any time on the pitch. He is absolutely useless. I'm not one to get on here and complain, but even the girlfriend who barely watches mentioned how poor he is. Kante, Hazard and Azpi are class. Everyone else is struggling too. Thor's girlfriend has spoken. ? When mine watches she starts asking stupid shit like, will David Beckham be playing soon? At which point I tell her I need her to go to teh shop as I forgot milk and bread! ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shelmus 12 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 I prefer Marko Marin to Pedro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 And some of you guys were scoffing at the idea of bringing in Ricardo Rodgriguez. Oh, "he can't defend" blah, blah, blah. Well Cahill and Ivanovic can't defend. Terry and Azplicueta (at LB) are sadly mediocre at this point. And let's not even talk about their attacking contribution. Big, fat ZERO. Ivanovic, Terry, Cahill and Azpilicueta have to be worst back 4 in the top 6. Add to the fact that we're now playing with two holding midfielders essentially and an average player like Oscar and a striker like Costa who is so tunnel visioned and has poor ball control and decision making, it's no surpise we're shit. Our board knows all these things but they do nothing. Both of the Manchester clubs will tear us a new asshole right now. Hopefully, we get our shit together in the 2nd half. But 10 days till the transfer window shuts and we've only signed Kante. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RuudiGullit 112 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 Dull. 0 changes. 0 creation. Nothing. Very very disappointed. The players...just average. Only Hazard is fun to watch. This is not a Premier League winning team. There is no connection. No chemistry. I don't see the influence of Conte. Is Mourinho still our manager?

blues.bridge 343 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 we need higher quality and more racing on the wings ( ivanovic and Azpi are not enough) Winger : EDEN removed ; moses , cuadrado , pedro are very bad!! Willian is like a horse, with blinders: yeah, run up and down etc, but zero creativity and opportunities created!! Technically Costa is embarrassing! 2 match no one clean change! we make goal only on penalties , corners etc , or a cross or some individual play!!

nono 791 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 What was the point of signing Bats at all when the manager won't play him ? Did they even consult the manager? That money was needed for a winger orcentre back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he tries to do anything that requires a decent level of technique he gets it wrong 95% of the time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That money was needed for a winger orcentre back. And Costa is not a footballer. He is so poor on the ball.

Or Arsenal who haven't scored against us for years? Things aren't great right now but let's not exaggarate. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MrExcalibur100 7,124 Posted August 20, 2016 Share Posted August 20, 2016 It's a sin that Hazard still gets double and tripled marked and we are still unable to punish it due to having no left back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
