AWorriedChelseaFan 151 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 Anyone saw the build up of the third goal for Arsenal ? Fucking Ivanovic is just jogging back without a single care in the world and lets Ozil ran through on goal to score. kellzfresh, TheIceMan and xPetrCechx 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueLyon 9,359 Posted September 25, 2016 Share Posted September 25, 2016 I think he is still the presence in the squad. You know the guy who you dont fuck with. The guy who trains hard etc. Thats why he is getting selected over and over. Because he is professional. Its not that he doesnt give a fuck or anything. He probably still has hunger and desire to play and shows it more than Aina and others. However he is way past it and it shows on the pitch.

Popular Post! The Chels 2,502 Posted September 25, 2016 Popular Post! Share Posted September 25, 2016 If Ivanovic starts the next match then at least we'll know where we stand with Conte. I fear this will be the case and we'll have been lumbered with yet another manager who comes from the school of thought that prioritises "balls, attitude, fighters" and other such overly emotional nonsense instead of developing a technically and tactically strong eleven. I hope I'm wrong. MichaelDance, lucio, Irakozium257 and 2 others 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucio 5,418 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 It's like Sunday league. When the worst player gets a spot at rb, because he's the manager's son. He is close to Roman, only thing keeping him in the xi. Unless all the managers drink petrol the wes 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darogba 112 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I don't really buy this rubbish about Roman keeping a player in the team because he's a favourite of his. The only thing he cares about is results and I seriously doubt he'd encourage a player who's costing us a place in the champions league and therefore money to be allowed to keep playing simply because he likes him. The managers have a free reign on who they pick. The Chels, manpe, Adnane and 1 other 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAM09 7,054 Posted September 26, 2016 Share Posted September 26, 2016 I'm getting the feeling he can't be dropped at this point. Not sure what his and Roman's relationship is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanting your team to "have balls", yet being afraid of dropping underperforming players. The Chels 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe he actually is better than the alternatives, frightening thought but hey. Would only confirm the utter lack of vision of those in charge and the horrible management of the squad. Rarely seen such an obvious liability in a top team. Along with his sidekick Stimpy Cahill. Edit: Bellerin wasn't a better player than Debuchy when he started playing. But he surprised and started to develop rapidly after getting regular game time. We'll never see that at Chelsea because young, raw players never get that chance. It doesn't always work of course but that's part of the game. Peace., Blue-in-me-Veins and The Skipper 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The managers have a free reign on who they pick. Why do you think Torres played over and over and over again? You think the managers saw something in him? Or do you consider it more likely that there was pressure from Roman to make it work? I believe the latter. Whose choice do you think it was to employ 'out with the old, in with the new' and ensure that Courtois would be our starting goalkeeper, regardless of the fact Cech still performed better? It wasn't the managers buddy. lucio 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wasn't the managers buddy. But Torres was different because we had spent that huge money and wanted him to work. Ivanovic is old and past it so I really don't see the point in the board destroying their relationship with a manager just to see him play. Both situations are completely different.
