raumdeuter: This is the reason your arguments are most of the time flawed. You always base them on poor foundation. Gudjohnsen was an utility player for us but when Chelsea was dominating was known as a cm early those years . |

Griffon: So the only midfielders allowed in 3-4-3 are DMs? You are telling me you are gonna Bench Xavi for Matic if you wanna play 3-4-3 Cause of some theory Like Fabregas didn't play the CM role against City Make we bone the issue, I don't have the time |

Nihilist: Flickons you never saw in 2014/15. A well tailored pass to Kante against Manure and a pass to Pedro. These are headlines you never saw the season he was charging mates down in a 4-2-3-1. Admit it that this dude is doing something different. He can't be Cesc 'cos he doesn't have that innate ability to create chances. He can't be a deep-playmaker. I don't expect him to post more assists or even goals over Cesc 'cos he can't just compare with the latter who at some point in his career has played as a striker. Matic is a DM and I would rather have him in a 3-4-3 over Cesc. Nothing personal. |

diggz: Kante -Fab of course 1-Liverpool don't play long balls so Matic's height is useless 2-Liverpool will Press us And anyone who has studied us would know once the ball falls to Matic or Cahill under pressure we are in trouble .......Every game we have lost this season has been games which we were pressed high, it was even worse when we had Terry, I'm, Matic and Cahill together Against a team that isn't too physical, presses and doesn't play long balls.. ..I go with Fab Infact even if they play long balls I go with Fabregas |

CONTEDDICTED: You need to understand how every setup works and the personnel needed for it to thrive. That Cesc played against Citeh and we won doesn't necessarily qualify him to be the ideal ninja for a 3-4-3. Do your research on this formation, check what is required of its CMs and weigh them with Cesc's attributes. You can't know better than Conte who prefers a certain useless bean-pole Serbian. |

CONTEDDICTED: Have you seen Fabregas being pressed before? Matic is calm and protects his ball. I don't know where you get the idea that Matic doesn't protect his ball. That is one of his strengths. |

Griffon: Jetlag is due to time difference as the body adjusts between timezones and day and night. Gabon should not be much different to UK in terms of time. There's no reason why he cant fly back on 29th and play on the 1st. Twould be no different to Chelsea flying to Russia on Tuesday for UCL Wednesday match against CSKA. 4 Likes 1 Share |

Ibime: I first saw Iniesta back in 2008..the team were warming up and Iniesta stood out because of his almost translucent skin. But there was another reason he stood out.. he never made a single mistake during that warm up. Not even one. It felt as if time almost slowed when the ball came to him. He was in utter control of the football and absolutely aware of everything around him. It was absolutely fascinating to watch. I have watched his performances over the years, particularly in finals. And one thing that remained with me was how he always stood out in finals. Some people are so obsessed with tallying up goal these days.. but for me the true measure of greatness has always been performances against the best players in the world because those are the toughest matches and performances against the best are what truly separates the great from the very good. I remember when he was voted player of the tournament at Euro 2012 without scoring a single goal.. his performances were simply extraordinary that I remember Zidane saying at the time how excited he was at seeing Iniesta play and how much he reminded him of himself. Iniesta has always stood out when the best players meet, and consistently stood out in finals. He is simply a magician... a true footballing great. 1 3 Likes |

It's simple, What Matic offers defensively, Fabregas cannot offer. What Fabregas offers offensively, Matic cannot offer and like nateevs pointed out some times back, what we need is a blend of both worlds. If you feel Matic has declined with his abilities, it his due to the change of formation and his job role. The fact that Matic is preferred to start is because defensive solidity comes first in COnte's tactics and when the opposition is worn out or less concentrated, Fabregas comes on to do the damage. IMO he is using them both effectively since he doesn't have one player to do both the jobs. It is just pointless to compare Matic and Fabregas(whether in this new system or not) as they are not and will never be the same type of players. Fabregas himself says he is not fit for a 3-4-3 system. He claims he's still learning what to do which is evident when he said he has only played this system 3 times when we beat Leicester a short while back. Who would i prefer? As much as i like Fabregas for what he does attack wise, i just wish he had more legs to run more be more effective defensively. I like the way he is being utilised currently. Starting Fabregas in matches leaves us vulnerable at the back even if as much as people claim they don't see what matic does, we concede less starting with him. My 2 cents. 9 Likes 1 Share |

CONTEDDICTED:Fab don't play regularly reason he's doing well in this formation when call upon. Fab is lazy defensively so he can't be played consistently in this type of formation. T Yes! We all know fab>matic but the coach is not stupid and so far, his decision is producing result. |
