Football Thread U 2013/14 |OT8| 3rd in a 2 team league

wilshere lacks disciprine. i love watching him make those runs, but when chelsea are waiting to counter-attack, and (more than) half of the team is in front of the ball, trying to dribble past two chelsea players is extremely risky.

Is this the beginning of Arsenals downfall?

Tata trying to make Song as our new Keita? Could work.

I expect Pedro to be shit and Messi and Alexis score the goals we need to win.
 
Surely the second half will be better, Chelsea are in total cruise control and Arsenal don't seem bothered.

That's an interesting team. Easing Cesc and Song into the team as replacements for Xavi/Iniesta

I'd like to see Song and Busquets play together more often, they need to get used to it because sometimes we need to be a bit more defensive. I know Song isn't great defensively but still better than the other mids.
 
Adnan was decent, Chicha needs support son.

Overall, pretty bland half, defended well and had some good chances.

That Adnan shot looked so close.
 
Not happy about Alves starting and Montoya not. Montoya still hasn't signed a contract extension(ends end of season I believe). :(


Tata should most definitely give Montoya some playing time vs Asspanyol. Alves and Adriano have both been playing some crazy minutes lately and we can't really afford either to get injured.

Also no wonder Thiago left... Sergi Roberto is AGAIN watching the game from the stands. Tata pls
 
Yeah Chicha looked a bit alone. Adnan likes to roam around everywhere so he isn't around to support Hernandez that much. I wonder how a diamond formation with Adnan behind 2 strikers would work...
 
Fergie and Viva the downbuzz crew. Adnan has been brilliant and Zaha has been very good. The rest of the team has been worse than the Arsenal Chelsea match.
 
LMAO.
From the BBC tweet feed.
"Shane Lees: I've never seen quite so much hype about a player as distinctly unremarkable as Adnan Januzaj."
Shane clearly has no clue about football. Must be a Liverpool fan.
