Ozil not playing well they said, drops another 2 assists. As much as any Chelsea AM got in the league this entire season :lol:

Ozil is the best midfielder in the league by far.

Not even the assists, but the way he is able to control the game when it is needed. He makes it look so easy.

I am seriously worried about Arsenal, as much as I hate to admit it.... The Villa game aside, they have been really convincing..in CL too.

Don't be. They have almost zero rotation. They will drop a lot of points in December when their star players start burning out.

Fuck me i never knew Newcastle have creep-ed right up, that's shows how much attention i actually pay to the table at this stage of the season.

Yep they have been quietly going about there business. It's so tight this year I only see arse having the chance to break free unfortunatly.

Early days but be surprised if Arsenal dont win the league or come close to it then other seasons.Their downfall before has been dropping silly points which is exactly at the moment what they're not doing this season.Their crap players arent that crap anymore.Hope will change lol but guess their crappyness had to finish at some point..booo!

I would not be so sure to see the goons burning out. Chelsea have very little rotation too. What about them ? We already seen one tired team in Swiss.

Arsenal have been playing with one starting eleven, except flamini or arteta switching. That is why they have blended so well. They are the only top team with perfect understanding among themselves and team chemistry. Mancity is close because they too have a recognized starting 11(i dont understand their away day blues though)

When we get our settled starting 11(im hoping by January latest) we should hit top gear with perfect team understanding and knock arsenal off the top. Luckily for us, we are still in touching distance while playing at 40%

I don't know why it's taking so long for Mourinho to settle on his starting XI...

All this chop and change in terms of attacking midfielders ruins team chemistry and creates poor performances...

I think mourinho is really trying to stay for the long run. Thats why he is sacrificing his record to try and find the right players for a system of play. I'm hoping we dont fall of the title race by then though but it has to come by early january at the latest.

Because you are never comparing apples with apples - every game is different West Ham and Basel - who saw that coming?

We've had 3 different managers in 2 years - it's hard to enforce a style of play (consistently) and we have a glutton of players in some positions and lacking in others - we need a few years to rebuild the team with the right balance.

Chemistry in real life isn't like FIFA - you get out what you put in and that 5-6 days a week on the training ground.

It takes time - but the end product is worth it.

The world has become too impatient, we're now a global disposable society - but ask yourself this one question, sure you can get a pizza, kebab, burger 24x7 - but does it honestly taste as good as your Mums Sunday lunch (or national dish)... Because in UK a Sunday Roast takes 4-5 hours, is hard work but SO rewarding...

I hope that's whats happening now at Chelsea - we've tried the fast food option, got indigestion (but still won a trophy) - now is the time for some good old patience whilst we wait to savour the dish...

It's late - I could be talking bollox - but it makes sense to me... :)
