What Serie A GAF? Milan-GAF is dead, all Wooden does is complain about refs, we're the only ones keeping hope alive. :(



Can't wait for those Juve - Bayern PES2015 matches. Going to be incredible. How is your ping/lag when playing against best continent bros, FF-chan?

Most GAF ppl say they lag when they play against me but it's always fine for me. I think it is just excuses.
 
Our tendency to self destruct with stupid decisions is horrible
 
Everyone putting a lot of pressure on Sturridge, wow, answer to all of Liverpool's problems? They still have to create chances for him.

We're not gonna suddenly become a boss attacking unit, but his movement and close control ensures that chances fall to him, and the ball stays alive in the box. Plus, Coutinho needs a striker making clever runs in order to perform to his best, and Balotelli is frankly a fucking idiot when it comes to attacking movement. He either runs offside, he doesn't run at all, or he runs in the wrong direction.

And he's just someone who can occupy 2 defenders at once. At the moment, Balotelli is being easily marked by a single player, leaving an extra defender to congest the edge of the box at all times. You can't really leave 1 centreback on Sturridge though, since he does a bit of everything. Runs off the back, drops for the ball, shifts to either wing. He's too much for 1 player to track for 90 minutes
 
Looks like Di Maria is playing inside, not quite found his touch this game yet
 
You can already see how Carrick is influencing the game

“Balotelli is not a player, because a player moves as part of a team. He’s just a footballer.

That is what Arrigo Sacchi had to say about Balotelli today
 
Carrick dropping deep to pick up. all by himself in midfield as 4 players in front of him stand still. Now we are playing United football of the past 3-4 seasons.
