Iva was and still is a CB by trade. He has been shaky many times for us @CB so tbh I was happy he held down the RB spot. He only really gained a foothold on that spot when Dave was switched from right to left and used to replace Cole. Remember Cole left at the conclusion of the 13-14 season, So Iva hasn't been holding that position for even 2 years yet regularly and certainly not since he joined at all so check your facts bredrin.
What was the point of buying Filipe Luis last year and then having to purchase Baba Rahman this year? Players finding it hard to say no to Chel$ea, but will confront hard, cold reality after chasing the hard, cold ca$h. Mourinho will stand in a firing line for Azpilicueta and since playing time is key for any player who would ordinarily be a likely NT starter, going to Chelsea to sit on the bench is a non-starter of an idea. Literally.
The reality here is that Ivanovic performed so well last term @ RB even though his true position is CB, that Jose found it difficult to sit him. Why not sit Dave you ask? Well Dave was rock solid in defense. It was very extremely rare to see a successful cross come in from opponents right flank because Dave was very adept at dispossessing his mark and launching counters. His only weakness was his lack of ability with his left which meant limited crosses from our left side. So it isn't so much what you are making it out to be at all. In fact I imagine had Luis chosen to stay he probably would have been inserted already and Dave returned to the right. Iva was looking woeful since preseason but by then Luis had already made up his mind and the club obliged even if that is not what is being spoken in the press. JM making Iva a VC doesn't help either because it has meant that given such trust he had to give him a chance to get right. If Baba was ready to start last game I imagine he would have as the combo of preseason and the initial 3 games were enough for JM to spot the glaring weakness that Iva has represented this term. It also doesn't help that Matic has under-performed as well. I think Baba has come at the right time and has an opportunity to take that spot and claim it as his own. Even Kennedy looked like a breath of Fresh air was injected when he came on. The biggest mistake JM made on that day was letting the youngster replace Dave instead of sending Iva to the bench and Dave to the RB position.
She been skating on Thin ice since that Arsenal game when Oscar sustained a concussion and was allowed to return, only to be taken off at the half and sent to the hospital in an ambulance. When you look at that and this, one might be tempted to say that with Oscar she was probably attempting to game manage, but I liken the two to a player who passes when he should shoot and shoots when he should pass. In either situation the result is a botched play. Jose have plenty haters and detractors and they are having a field day with this. However the only reason this generates so much attention is because 1. Jose mentioned it, 2. Eva is a woman, and 3. she is attractive. I doubt most people can name 2 other physios especially of teams they don't support, yet everyone knows Eva and by name. Naturally many will claim she was only doing her job, yet I personally do not think what Jose said about understanding the game is unreasonable. What if Hazard was seriously injured which is the next fantasy statement many have made, the counter is he would have made the universal football signal that players make after sustaining a serious injury. He eh no rookie that drop from space.
I once saw T&T play the first half of an official game against Honduras at the Queens Park Oval with blue tops. Can't remember what happen to there tops but they had to borrow Queens Park tops.
Both teams started the game in white. The ref made T&T change tops.
Schürrle is a player... and only 23 at that.
Suarez ah sorry! That would have been a golaso bombaso.
2 Set pieces, 2 Goals by Skrtel.
Arsenal eh wake up yet.
The Man City-Arsenal game making it hard to watch this Chelsea game, boy.
yeah..... I doh know, d russian shoulda probably hold on to Rafa.....Jose not inspiring mih......it goh be pressure at arsenal if dey can't get dey shit together.
DHW I heard that story. As to Christians being involved, I'm not really sure. But brother it's not the same because these actions seem to be supported as part of the religion. You cut off a man head in public for a cross and its like Juvert morning. What is religion if it doesn't value life in the protection of women and children? The reason I don't do and say half the thing I feel or deal out judgement to people is that Christ died for everyone. The breathe of life is precious and valuable. Amen the God I serve don't think like that. We would all be headless.
Two great strikes by Fulham, but I still have to give Wilshere goal the edge. So many things happen there.
