Why our winning days are gone

[eldo 868]

Hey english guy, you should know that if you play 4-3-3, it doesnt mean you play like Barça. We play 4-3-3, but in a different way we played under Mourinho. You can play 4-3-3, and play a defensive football, a boring football, a exciting football, a super ofensive football, and awesome football, a awful football. Its not videogame, where tatics is just choosing between 4-4-2, 4-3-3, 4-5-1...

Why did you take that Barca comparison literally. I only mentioned them because they are famous for using 4-3-3.

4-3-3 is very flexible formation. You can easily switch from 4-3-3 to 4-5-1 or even 4-4-2. But you need very good players...

Okay, I understand your points.

Kakuta is over-hyped by our fans. Hopefully one day, he'll live up to it. But if he's holding this club hostage over contract negotiations, he can f*ck off.

That is how it is. They are doing the same now with Josh.

Kakuta has now important decision in front of him. And then he will need some time to work and develop.

YOU called him a troll ...Im aware that has a new internet definition ..but it is quite ironic that someone who signs himself a "devils advocate"

should call someone else a troll

Josh deserve the hype, because its base in what he have done playing in Premier Lague and Champions League. He played few minutes before the Marseille game, but we can see he has lots of potential.

Kakuta hype is based in what he have done in sub-20 teams, and in Chelsea B. Playing in first team he looked really awful. I understand the hype, since I know that most part of his fans havent seen a full match of sub-20 teams or Chelsea B, iys all based in Youtube videos.

Sorry, but Kakuta is not our version of Messi, Rooney or Ronaldo. Players who arrived very young on their clubs and end up as world class players.

Rooney .

I watched him play at Euro U-19 championship.

Nobody is expecting him to be Messi. You should know that youngsters need to have games under their belt to be able to show something.

I don't think that many fans here have seen more of Neymar than from youtube videos. And he is hyped, but he can't cross the ball properly.

Neymar play against first teams, not against teenagers like Kakuta, and some guys dont want to believe but brazilian league is better than some european leagues, like the Dutch, leagues in Turkey, Greece, Belgium...

And Rooney wasnt good in sub-19 team, but is a world class player. Thats because it doesnt mean if you are good in the sub-something, you are going to be good in first teams.

Why our winning days are gone?

It's easy. If we did things properly in the transfer market nothing like this would happen. As simple as this.

Couldn't have phrased it better.

Yup, absolutely spot on. Its not the fact we're not buying anyone that annoys me the most - its the problems caused by selling players BEFORE having a replacement in place.
