CHOULO19 24,332 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Assist was typical Branna RB play...making use of some space and cutting a pass into the penalty area. The goal was a screamer, smashed a low shot from about 20 yds outGot a video by any chance? Link to post Share on other sites
termninja 5,290 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Anyone here watched Serbia v Wales last night? How did Ivanovic fare? He scored 1 and assisted 1 of the goals too.He was great and acted as true captain. He was around the action arguing with referee and opposition. He neutralized Bale, made a great assist with a rocket run after taking ball from Bale and went on to score a beauty with a volley from outside the box later on. Overall, we finally got a new true captain in our national team. 3 Link to post Share on other sites

Forget the goal and assist, the fact that he pinned down the Welsh wizard is just putting a smile on my face. 1 Link to post Share on other sites

BleedsBlue 1,549 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 I would not drop him for any game so soon.Probably best if we sub him off in the later stages of the second half so that we could see some glimpses of Cesar before saying that Spaniard is a better rb than Iva. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
Jase 43,476 Posted September 12, 2012 Share Posted September 12, 2012 Don't think anyone is really saying Azpilicueta is the better RB than Ivanovic right now. What we're saying is that Ivanovic probably needs to be dropped or rested, if you like, because his form has been dire as of late. Can't just keep on playing him if he continues to put in poor performances. Will just leave us exposed at RB. Link to post Share on other sites

Waterfall 893 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Is it just me or does Branislav being the furthest man up the pitch so often worry you a little?Not a criticism, but weird as it seems to be happening a lot more this season. Link to post Share on other sites

Part of that is that because we are playing such a tight formation, we rely on our fullbacks to give us width in the attack and Brana has been a big part of a number of our goals but yes, this is something we need to sort out at some point. (Hopefully by getting more width up front). Link to post Share on other sites

Hate it when both of our FBs are so high up the pitch when our CBs are in possession. They're basically just taking themselves out as a passing option and when that happens, it is where to we start to pass sideways, backwards or see Luiz makes one of his aimless long balls forward.

They are all natural no.10 and so it falls to our fullbacks provide width for the team. Play Moses or Marin in front of him and watch his defensive positioning improve.

meetdoscar 335 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 I don't see the problem people are seeing with ivanovic as no defender is perfect and as for me he has been as solid as any right back in the world right now both in attack and defense. Prove me wrong!!! 1 Link to post Share on other sites
KonohasOrangeFlash 2,607 Posted October 3, 2012 Share Posted October 3, 2012 Ivanovic is becoming a scapegoat unfortunately. He is super solid and a very good RB. A bit on the slower side but one of the best in the EPL without doubt. 1 Link to post Share on other sites
