Week 02 - 13/14 Premier League - League Cup R2 - Europa

[Benicio del Toney]

Still waiting for Hazard to come and boss this ting, man looked like Zico in France ffs.

If you're going to play defensive, at the very least, you must have a coherent counter-attacking strategy which was missing.

Not ONE single attacking transition.

 

lol you guys dont listen

 

both teams went out there for a draw and a clean sheet

[The Somalian]

yeah only the teams pushing for europa have 100% records crazy

You don't play the line-up they did with that in mind then. You don't start RVP & Rooney if you want that. You don't start Ramires & Lampard in CM if you want a clean sheet & a draw.

That was sh*t, let's call a spade, a spade.

it was shit, but the first 10-20 mins of the game indicated this to you coach

[darkman]

lol @ thinking Moyes went for a draw

[Young £]

Carrick? Didn't even notice he was playing and this is the guy who should be the lynchpin of the England team? lol

 

He wasn't at his best by any means but we saw who Man U's best player is still

lololololo

 

wow we all watch different games

[Young £]

lol @ thinking Moyes went for a draw

wanted to avoid defeat much more than he wanted to go for a win

 

evident, him frantically giving instructions about the 21st minute indicated this

[Michel Kane]

I'm well aware of what the game plan was, it could have just been executed better especially with the players available.

Carrick had a good game, some of the passes in between the lines >>>

Did his job perfectly.

[LS]

I don't think there's one stand out team this season.  Should be a very open prem.  I think ours, Arsenals and even Liverpools first 11 are not too far off the top 3 teams.   Just depends on injuries 

 

Mata has to leave Chelsea.  Willian joining them will be the final nail.

I can't help it, LOOOL.

Don't even get me started on that signing.

Fucking ridiculous, got into it with a Chelsea fan earlier saying it was necessary. FOH.

I disagree, the starting line up plus the subsitutions are signs of you going for the win. You just couldn't break them down

[Michel Kane]

Oh, that game also illustrated why Valencia is necessary for matches like these however to replace him with Young as opposed to Zaha is a bit...

Think at least 60 minutes into the game, he had the most tackles on the pitch on Cole/Hazard.

[darkman]

Mata has to leave Chelsea.  Willian joining them will be the final nail.

Don't even get me started on that signing.

f*cking ridiculous, got into it with a Chelsea fan earlier saying it was necessary. FOH.

 

Not ridiculous if he thinks Will is a better player

 

I've made my feelings about Mata known and I'm not surprised Mourinho doesn't seem to rate him

[Creed Diskenth]

Best league in the world

El Clasico could never be like this

 

Trust

Man like Pinto would be getting sent off from the bench

[O Fenomeno]

Athletes vs Footballers

It's not about who's better out of the two. It's about the fact that in the AM area of the pitch, they have Schurrle, Hazard, Oscar, KDB, Mata & Moses. That's more than good enough to achieve what they want. To spend €30m on Willian & further limit the playing time of young players like KDB, Moses & players in their academies is bullshit.

[Michel Kane]

Darkman, what's your opinion on Mata?

[darkman]

I think he's overrated by the media/ football fans in this country

[Afroman]

I think he's overrated by the media/ football fans in this country

Nah hes not trust me. 

 

replaceable player though 

[Michel Kane]

In what other fixture between a top league's top teams, would both teams leave out their most creative players all together? Someone answer.
