Unlimited22: Anyone been following Marco van Ginkel at PSV? I think he'll be a better option than the Donkey, Slowpoke and Alcoholic we currently have partnering Kante in our midfield.
raumdeuter: I speak the truth. I relate with him regularly. He has shown several fruit of the spirit and he is teachable. The only thing missing is spiritual mentorship he needs a good mentor. The type Elisha did under Elijah.
He has incredible talent and he will be a great man of our time, he might even be greater than many leaders you know now
My stance on Morata is clear. I was against him initially and even summer 2016, but he bought himself some patience in those first few months, so I wont write him off just yet. I'm watching in 3D before I cast final judgement. I've only seen him play 90 minutes against Arsenal in the last 3 months so I won't kill him for now.
Greatihex: exactly. He is a stupid man. Because he is afraid of being criticized like wenger, Chelsea should now play with fear and concede defeat even before kick off.
Pace all through Liverpool side. From Salah to Sane, Wijnaldum, Can, Henderson, Oxlade - they can all press high and recover.
Go and try that one with Fab and Drinkwater, they will get hammered 4-0.
Please let's use sense when making comparison.
Conte knows his team limitation. He is not interested in being the subject of an embarassing hammering that will dent his reputation. He is looking for job this summer.
Nihilist: Long Air ball for Aerial duel doesn't even need mobility sef. We can see the worker pedro has literally added nothing to this game....again.
all you have to do as a coach is to instruct your target man to stay up front at all times, even when defending, and then aim those long balls at his head
Exactly what Brighton used to beat Arsenal today with a 35 year old target man up front.
Well it's a sad day when Giroud is our hope against the very top teams.
Nothing to argue about, if Giroud is the answer then we need to rip up and start again.
Nihilist: how does this post even correlate to my post?
i say play Giroud up front and hit long balls to him to hold up, your saying Giroud doesnt have legs because Bayern beat them 8-1.
As if Alexis Sanchez did not start upfront in the 10-1 mauling last year. Maybe Sanchez too has 4 hands.
Target man football has nothing to do with pace. in fact most target men are pretty slow to begin with. The idea is that we're relying on their strength and aerial ability....not their speed.
A knockdown should have players close, otherwise na Salomon Rondon West Brom tinz.
Longballs from far also require some pace. You can play any and any ball to Drogba who will chase it and make contact, not Giroud. I've never seen Giroud effective in a counterattack, he won't start now. He does not have the mobility. Morata would be a better idea.
Add the fact you lose a worker Pedro, it could be counterproductive.
I'm not interested in gambling on some off-chance that Giroud could bring one goal. I'm only interested in not losing 3-0 and 4-0.
Your boy Chris dey remind me of both calamity Chambers and Mustafi who maintain residence at comical Arsenal.
When midfield open up constant pressure on defenders, mistakes will happen just from repeated incessant pressure. One can only make the right call 90% of the time. Body no be firewood abeg.
Nihilist: long ball to the target man to hold up or knock down can be effective to break the press.
you cant press the ball in the air.
False 9 works best in a possession heavy tactic, possesion we dont have.
Knockdown to who? You think Giroud even has the legs to reach balls Hazard is getting close to? Giroud should tell us how he reached those balls when Bayern and co were smashing Arsenal 8-1 and so on.
atheist5: doing is best in what, Chelsea gave this idiot a target man in giroud yet the f00l still plays his best player in a position where he is. useless, no urgency ,stupid formations,I hope city score 4 in this game, how can a top team even play like this?,Chelsea is a disgrace
Does Giroud have leg to cover the acres upfront. Giroud would be minus 1 so long your midfield can't hold the ball and bring it to him.
raumdeuter: Ovbredo gave Barca a red card to Abidal which on review was a poor decision
See how we are saying a ref who gave your opponent an undeserved red card and missed a couple of penalty awards is less culpable than the one who ruled out a legit goal
It's clear you don't remember the game. Early in the first half a blatant tackle from behind should have resulted 100% in a red card and penalty against Abidal
Is she a prostitute? What kind of massage is she giving that involves butt massage. Instead of her to go find work, she is proudly showing herself, as if her daddy sent her to school to become a masseuse.
Mscheew. I wonder how many of her clients will continue to patronise this blabbermouth that can spill all their beans on social media just because she earns N1k per massage.
