Was a real bolt form the blue when they did. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Randall 315 Posted July 18, 2011 Share Posted July 18, 2011 I hope he goes to a club where the manager will play him in left wing rather than centre midfield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeB 1,281 Posted July 21, 2011 Share Posted July 21, 2011 I think it's gonna be his season now, we should not part company with him because he is an incredible player... He can play either left back, central MF and left winger with the same ability and as if it was the place where he always plays...When he has the ball it's very difficult to stop him without foul, he ca make the link between defence and attack brillantly.We could not found better than him on the market, and please dont tell me Michel Bastos !

He has one year left on his contract, if he has a fantastic year he will re-sign, if not he can leave. He will have a breakout year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His other problem is he seems to fall victim to a lot of niggling injuries that keep him off the pitch. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeB 1,281 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Indeed. His other problem is he seems to fall victim to a lot of niggling injuries that keep him off the pitch.He did also suffer from injuries of players around him, Lampard injured himself and Carlo put him in the middle, Malouda was one of the untouchables of Ancelotti so he has never played on the wing... He has always been a replacement solution, never yet the first choice. He is the true left winger whom Malouda isn't anymore so he deserves his chanceI think the best thing to make would be signing him a new contract before November, he could only be better with confidence from the club ; thing he probably didn't have wth Ancelotti (contrary with Ramires by example) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeB 1,281 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 The departure of Bryan English is a good thing, in France there was an interview of Pierre Hamon the French surgeon who operated Essien ; he said Bryan English didn't respect the time needed after an operation. Usually this magazine is crap, they want to be a french tabloïd... It's the first instructive thing I found on ithttp://www.le10sport.com/Football/Foot-Anglais/La-verite-sur-le-cas-Essien-220749692.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Usually this magazine is crap, they want to be a french tabloïd... It's the first instructive thing I found on ithttp://www.le10sport...-220749692.htmlTo be fair. In Essien's case, even the Ghanian FA's doctors f*cked up on a major scale. They even misdiagnosed him when he got injured in the ACoN. Not that I'm defending English if this is true.

5354 204 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 I think Zhirkov is 1 top 3 corner/free kick tacker in the club now? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeB 1,281 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Yes, his set pieces were impressive in pre-season. Nothing amazing, he has always been a great crosser.At least we won't have Anelka or Malouda taking set pieces anymore this season, even Lampard didn't kick great ones...

BlueLion. 21,491 Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Whilst we're on the topic of set-pieces, Lampard should never be allowed to touch a direct free-kick again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
