Carling Cup Quarter Final: November 29, 2011 - Chelsea FC v. Liverpool FC [R]

Porto have been shit this year without AVB. Its a miracle they even up in the standings. The new Porto coach is on the brink of getting fired. Will be surprised if he lasts the season.

On another note, can someone please explain to me, how the **** is Dowd still employed by the FA?

 

He always does. Little pr*ck. Talented though.

 

If you don't want any context, I guess not, but me? I like actually not being reactionary and using horrible logic.

 

Anelka is lazy. Can't wait to see the back of him. Didn't even attempt to pressure to goalkeeper. At least Torres tried.

 

I agree. Aren't the majority of goals scored on the back if such errors. Apart from a few long distance rockets, I can't think of a goal that didn't result from some sort of error.

 

we have been losing because our strikers suck and arent scoring goals.

I'm tired of this Torres experiment, Anelka sucks, and we got DD with his mind already on another team with money in his eyes.

In hindsight we should have made more of an effort to sign Falcao. Wish we could bring someone in Jan, but who will be willing to part with a top class striker in jan?

 

Come on now, we are an attacking team. Look at all the goals we score.

 

Chelsea of the past would dominate this midfield. We used to dominate these matches. I still don't think Ram is most effective playing as the RCM in a 4-3-3. In a diamond with a dynamic AM or as a RM in a 4-4-2 I think he's excellent. His passing isn't up to par.

EDIT: What was Bos trying to do there? That is a 1/1000 pass he was trying to attempt. Taking the ball launched in the air and trying a deft pass into a foot of space for the forward, all with his LEFT foot. That's called not knowing the limitations of your game.

 

City did it with Dzeko last season. Perhaps we could take a risk with Farfan of Schalke. He'd solve the RW/CF problem and he's a workhorse with solid set pieces.

 

Lol. Touche.

 

I FUUUUUUUCKING hate losing to liverpool. GOD DAMN IT!!!!!!!

 

While I think Bertrand is a solid fullback, especially in the defensive aspect; however, we've literally seen nothing from him going forward on a consistent basis. He isn't a player who dominates a flank like A.Cole or Bridge. Not that he should be in their class this young, but if he's to be used a Chelsea you need a very good winger who will HOLD the ball in the forward area and let him run on so that we can make use of his crossing.
