    Cesc Fàbregas

    I'm not saying up front is Cesc's OPTIMAL position. But him playing the false 9 has proved very effective and in times where we need to switch up/vary our attack, I think he could be used here to very good use without sacrifice the Iniesta-Busquets-Xavi midfield that is so critical. This was...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    But see not in the false 9 position. Is Messi just a goal scorer? No way, he drops deeper and provides amazing assists. That's why Cesc would be there not as a CF but as a False 9. The false 9 position utilizes both his great positioning and goalscoring prowess and also all the rest of his...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    Which is why I agree we need to have Iniesta, Xavi and Busquets running the midfield. But I personally feel that Fabregas' contribution is more potent and dangerous than Pedro's, and that he is a more valuable asset to have on the field. Yes we need Xaviniesta in midfield to greatly improve our...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    EXACTLY. Our current tactic is getting stale and it's GLARINGLY obvious. The reason we did so well with Pep is because Pep was not afraid to take chances and try new things, change em up. Cesc in the upper-midfield feeding balls and playing attacking interplay with Villa and Messi is just a...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    This is SOOO true. I thought I was the only one who noticed. He's ALWAYS in a perfect position for a pass and putting himself in GREAT positions. He is such a valuable asset to our attack.. very dynamic. I feel one of the main problems today is Cesc had no one to PASS to. Messi was completely...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    You know, I agree with that. Our possession game was indeed much weaker than it has been in times past. And indeed that makes it much harder for us to calmly create chances in their third and come up with some brilliant chances. Is that the fault of Cesc? I'm not so sure... not sure it can be...

    Cesc Fàbregas

    Ditto and Ditto. It's no coincidence that the season Fabregas is blossoming into great form we are breaking all records. He has been VITAL all season and was important here too even though he had somewhat of an off game. Fabregas + Villa need to play together man seriously... the most...

    1. Puyol - On of our VERY FEW players playing their heart our and keeping our ass in the game. 2. Pique - Made the vital tackle against Ronaldo, played great all around. 3. Iniesta - Played very well in the 1st half and start of the 2nd, slowed down near the end however. Cesc and Alves runners up

    Alexis Sanchez

    That's really good to know and confirms what I've suspected before I thought of his balance. It's all mental. He'll get over it eventually (hopefully)

    Cesc Fàbregas

    :wub: I'm so proud of Cescy. Let's not forget - he was ALWAYS a wonderkid. At one time he was the most productive midfielder in the world. He was ALWAYS a special player. When I was just getting back into football he IMMEDIATELY caught my attention and made me love Arsenal. Also his chips and...

    That is so awesome.

    David Villa

    Right on man. Plus I've seen videos of him playing from the right in Valencia and he killed it! It would be great if they at least try it out for sure.

    David Villa

    I think either one of those would be absolutely deadly

    Penal Madrid

    I just knew this would happen to Madrid eventually. When a team has no character to hold it together they are going to fall apart sooner or later. And in my eyes Mourinho is the biggest part of this lack of moral/character. I can see why Casillas is having such a falling out with him, Casilla...

    David Villa

    It's pretty great that one of our biggest problems is not being able to play all of our badass players at the same time :p I'm sure that's a problem any team would gladly take on lol It is always a disappointment when either Villa or Fabregas have to sit out. But on the flip-side... it's...

    Alexis Sanchez

    Yea that's probably true. He really doesn't seem too mentally strong. Maybe a good sports psychologist could help him get over it if he can't snap out of it himself. Or maybe just a couple goals will do the trick, who knows. I've never thought that he was a GREAT player, or even good enough for...

    Alexis Sanchez

    I'm not talking about his diving. Yes I agree that is mental and intentional. I'm talking more about his balance in general and how he always slips and falls even when not in the box. Balance SHOULDN'T be an issue for a professional athlete but when I look at Sanchez I definitely see room for...

    Alexis Sanchez

    As a Pilate's instructor, functional fitness trainer and student of the body, I think Alexis and the training staff just really need to work on his alignment. The reason he falls so much and his balance is so off is because he just isn't properly aligned and centered, so he isn't utilizing his...
