QUIT LEAVING KEVIN DE BRUYNE ON THE BENCH

DID WE EVEN TAKE ANY SHOTS ON GOAL OTHER THAN THE GOAL AND A COUPLE OF OSCAR'S IN THE 2ND HALF?

WE NEED WIDTH SO WHY DON'T WE PLAY AZPI AT RB AND IVAN AT CB? AZPI IS A BETTER CROSSER

WHY DO WE KEEP TROTTING OUT FRANK LAMPARD IN THE PIVOT? HE IS NOT A DEEP-LYING MIDFIELDER

WHY DON'T WE HAVE A STRIKER THAT DOESN'T JUST SHOW OFF HIS DRIBBLING SKILLS? OH YEAH WE LOANED HIM OUT TO A TEAM THAT JUST BEAT US

Seriously, we never even started Lukaku in a game before deciding to loan him out. He couldn't possibly be less of a goal scoring threat than the 3 guys that we are calling strikers right now.

/rant

ETA: Also, I think Hazard needs to start on the bench next game. I am one of the biggest fans of Eden but he needs to realize that his spot is on the line just like everyone else if he doesn't perform well. For one game I would really like to see (left to right) Willian-Oscar-De Bruyne or Willian-Mata-De Bruyne as I think that provides something different to our attack.

Yeah that is a very interesting video. I don't really like the title of it though, "Carragher wouldn't want to play with Luiz" isn't really what the video is about. I think that it is also interesting what Gary Neville thinks of him now rather than his comment about David about 1 years ago (saying he plays like he is controlled by a 10 year old on a PlayStation) even though it wasn't completely serious when he said it.

I think a Luiz-style defender works well if there is a defensive midfielder like Mikel that can cover for him when he makes his marauding runs forward, as opposed to our recent double pivot of Frank Lampard and Marco van Ginkel/Ramires where neither one is capable of covering for him.

ETA: I do like that video though and others like it, they teach me a ton about tactics and things that I wouldn't know otherwise.

I agree with this.

Van Ginkel news sucks

I hope we stroll into WHL with this XI:
------------Eto'o------------
-Hazard-Oscar-Mata--
-----Mikel--Ramires-----
-Cole--Luiz-Ivan--Azpi-
------------Cech------------

Really though, I would be alright with Torres or Ba instead of Eto'o, just whichever one looked best in training. I want Willian and De Bruyne to both come off the bench though.

Well we'd actually have to make an effort to win unlike at Old Trafford.

Tomorrow my day will start with beer and a little London Derby at 7:45 and continue throughout the day and end with a little Cats over Gators at Commonwealth.
