That's why Busquets can easily play as aCM/AM in MANY national teams and even clubs as well.
If na Mikel now, we go begin hear how Jose diverted him from his true calling of AM.

Meanwhile more skillful ballers dey play DM from Busquets to Pirlo to Schweinsteiger and Xavi

I remember vividly 95/96 Champions league. One skilful attacking midfielder with punk hairstyle led Nantes to the semi-final, as good as any other AM in the competition. Today Makelele is widely recognised as the prototype DM of his generation.

I remember one coconut head tried to compare Ramires to Busquets.

That's like comparing Zidane to Wilson Palacios.

Busquets really is a DM with all the skills of a Zidane plus the ball retention of Xavi.

Busquets is the best possession hogging DM since my man Xavi suffered a couple injuries.

Pure defending might be another matter altogether, but let's be honest, the ninja hog possession so much, he hardly ever has to defend.

Oh yes. . .

Lets cool off on this ninja DBR small and just flex on a quick one. . .



Sorry for the break in the schedule/ Had to ease the pace on the pedal/
I write leisurely. . .no Olympian effort. . . still Im taking the medal!/
I aint blowing my trumpet. . . Im just stating my level/
I don't lock horns with goats. . . I go face-to-face with the devil!/

So don't try to jam heads with this alien rebel/
I bring guns to the party where you rave and you revel/
I'm parading my metal/ while he flex with a dagger/
He playing Ludo with his wife. . .I'm playing chess with Obama/
so he upset with my swagger/ come dey vex for my matter/
Snake wanna bring me down. . . but I step up the ladder!!/

Bis is a champ and a vet/ known to act as a threat/
cos you see me on location. . . when the drama is set/
Whether on stage or studio, you know the jabs I direct/
Too quick for him to capture. . on his camera spec!/

You better flipping eject!/ Take flight. . and put ya wing in effect/
or duck for cover. . .like when Dana Air bring in a jet/
You better re-phraze if you think Mikuz considered a threat/
I get one over ya cosine. . . just gimme a sec!/
If you aint Mathematical, the last line got you thinking correct/
I'm willing to bet/ that my lyrics deliver his death/
just like the last nigga who was thinking to step/
nobody 'answered his call'. . . when I was 'wringing' his neck!/


You know this hero mean/ the rap elohim/

Barcelonas play starts with their central midfield, not Pedro and Alexis. You put Pedro and Alexis with Chelsea central midfield, they will lose badly. Thats the point, the spine of the midfield is key. I have never reduced the argument to simply steel. If steel was my only consideration, I would have no problem with Ramires. But you do need a combination of steel and technique in central midfield. One cannot expect wingers to dictate a midfield. That starts with the no4.

European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Is Cristiano Ronaldo The Most Complete Player In The Planet? by Ibime(m): 9:49pm On Sep 22, 2013
An inane argument.

Ronaldo beats Messi in most indiidual categories but Messi is simply the better player because his decision making, teamwork, football intelligence and ability to do what he does in tight spaces makes him far and above Ronaldos superior. Messi's decision making should be close to 100 whilst Ronaldos should be more like 50. There is no pass, shot or one-two Messi will play on the pitch that you will watch and say "he should have done it this way".

sawyer89: Guys, what is your take on the Manchester derby?
Do you think Chelsea can grab full points when we meet Man. City?
Highly unlikely. City is a team with a strong spine, not 11 wingers on the pitch and more wingers on the bench. tongue

jackbauerspower: But Why cant Mourinho build a system based on the players he already has?

RB managed to get us Victory in Europe without turning Mata into an ultra-efficient robot.

Besides its not like his Park-the-Bus and Counter style has been too successful recently undecided
Victory against who? 2nd rate teams?

Abeg jor!

Swansea and Corinthians are more indicative of what happens when you just go to war with "what you have". Mata was even the most anonymous guy on pitch against Benfica and besides Rafa had to push Ramires to the wing to stop us being overrun.


Jose has only parked bus in two matches this season and we did not complain about the result (Bayern and Manure). There was no bus parked at Everton and Basle. Infact the full MaZaCar was on the pitch when we lost those games. Jose even told us Mata did not perform to his instructions against Basle for the first goal.

The dude JM is trying to manage a deficiency in the team. Allow the ninja to work. We talking of a dude who took our team unbeaten three years at Stamford Bridge and now every fan thinks he knows better. Let's allow Jose to work. He is the fans choice, the only manager that can somewhat form stronghead and give 'football common sense' a place at the executive decision making table.

Last thing we want is return to dead men walking in manager's seat like Scolari, AVB, Ancelotti, RDM and Rafa. We the fans asked for Jose cos he is the only man that can give football a say at Romans table. Let the ninja work.

Emperoh: So where's you cover for the flanks?

The coach chose a team that could deliver the goods and i had no issues with that.
But when things go kaput, you expect a rejig.

that's where i had issues
Nani and Wellbeck na!!!

With 3 man midfield. Kagawa to help possession game, pick up holes and give Fernandinho something to think about.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Manchester United Fan Thread:''20 Times EPL Champion by Ibime(m): 6:55pm On Sep 22, 2013
Left to me, this is the only Utd line up that coulda competed today:

4-3-3/4-5-1 or whatever you wanna call it.

Rooney

Welbeck/Zaha Kagawa. Nani

Cleverley. Fellaini/Carrick

Evra. Vidic. Smalling/Evans. Valencia
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m): 6:40pm On Sep 22, 2013
Mata is a forward masquerading as a midfielder. He fits more in a 4-4-1-1 with two strong wingers beside him who run their whole line.

I sense Jose slyly trying to change the formation to 4-3-3. Oscar is a 4-3-3 midfielder.

It's about time someone pointed out that Mata cannot be carried in a 4-2-3-1 with the type of wingers we have. A 4-3-3 can compensate a bit for wingers who don't track back too effectively.

The way I see it from here on, Jose will balance one wing with Schurrle or Debruyne and tuck Oscar deeper into more of a three man midfield with Hazard controlling the other wing and Willian as his backup.

Jose is just being disingenuous by telling Mata he has a chance to prove him wrong. He wants to appear neutral. Jose has no plan for Mata except to sell him if he has his way.

Joe Cole was never world class but 05/06 and 09/10 were his years. I won't forget the day some peeps claimed he was better than Schweinsteiger though!!!

afrodoc: oh boy see as fellaini they jog like say he get belle. no urgency to move forward with the ball,no urgency to track runners defensively,no urgency close down his man. his turning arc is as wide as an olympic athletic track
Go tell this one to that guy called Andre Uweh on Chelsea thread who thinks Fellaini is the answer to all Chelseas midfield problems. The dude has no juice in his legs. Smaller players dance around him all the time. He's just been masking all this by playing behind the striker at Everton

chrisley024: D worst mistake 2day was not startin Cleverly.
Carrick and Fellaini are too sluggish. One of them needs to step down for Cleverley.

I've been telling Fellaini lovers on Chelsea thread for some time that they would be surprised at Fellainis sluggishness when they see him in a midfield two.

Young is not a 4-4-2 winger.

His usual move of cutting inside to cross only works with 4-3-3 in the opponents half.

That same move in a 4-4-2 just makes him run into traffic in central midfield
