A graphic shown on ESPN before the pen showed that from the last 5 pens, hazard only converted 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leif 6,006 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 I missed the first 20 minutes; why'd Costa get sent off? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Hazard obviously missed on purpose. Trying to get that Non Penalty Goal stat. Grinding. Respect it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the issue is that he's playing higher up the pitch because Cesc can't. We're not taking advantage of that fully because we are rarely pressing high, but at the same time we're weak in the center on the counter attack because Cesc is drawn to the ball too easily. Don't think we can take Cesc out either because he's the one to break the City pressing with his passing range. Wouldn't want to be in Antonio's shoes at the moment, tbh...

DYC. 7,542 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Funny bald GK, haha. Can always count on wild wild Willy. I want Hazard to be my baby daddy. Too bad he's lost his cool from the spot though. Costa is annoying. I can't stand it when my team (apparently) has to depend on a frustratingly underperforming player. Shades of Ivanovic here. Why not take him off for Willian and go with three roaming forwards. No real need for Costa in this game. Disappointed in big nose. Could've cost his team dearly with that horrible pass. And Cahill and his backing off always riles me up. What academy taught him that? Get that third goal quick, please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 As you can see Kante is quite useless along playmaker. Because then he has to be holding mid instead of roam around. Its crucial to get top upgrade of matic in summer and not a playmaker. Ok game, bit exposed in defense, but we play against top attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King11Didier 916 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 Just give Michy a chance, playing with Costa is like playing without a striker, it feels like the time when we were playing with Torres up front. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tbh when Costa didnt score he always rilled defenders and chased that ball like a mad dog. But people complained he is crazy. Now you got what people wanted. Calm Costa (well most of time). When he doesnt score he is invisible. Tbh I prefered that yellow card here and there because he at least showed great passion and character. Now he is like a dog on a leash.

Laylabelle 9,535 Posted April 5, 2017 Share Posted April 5, 2017 So far so good elsewhere but here is what matters..need to stay focused and not make anymore stupid mistakes!! And maybe not let hazard take penalties! Record with them isn't always that amazing of late Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His energy drops as the season goes on. A different ref could've sent him for that football tackle on Delph btw. Completely random and ridiculous move. And it's not even not scoring. He's ruining attacks with poor play. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And it seems the answer is Matic on for Zouma with Pedro to RWB.... Yeah, I think that's probably the best of the available solution even though clearly not ideal.
