That own goal was horrendous; what was he thinking.

Deulofeu is much more talented than Munir, Sandro and Adama. His ability to pick a pass, alone, makes him much more useful. I think he has a better eye for goal as well. The only thing that he was consistently displaying poorly was his decision making, and by that I mean going for it himself...

I'm not sure why Hazard has played LW in the first place. He's fast, can dribble and shield the ball well and can get other players involved from the middle...which Chelsea really needs. Instead they have him hug the sideline most of the time, trying to dribble double/triple coverage from the...

Messi is clearly way out of form. There was that moment he had Suarez and Neymar open- he chose Suarez which was a mistake, since Neymar was MORE open and in better position. I attribute it to him being out of form and making the wrong decision, not ignoring Neymar on purpose. Subbing in Messi...

Is there any way to buy the official jersey from last season? At the end of the season I tried to buy it but I could only find this season's jersey on soccer.com and the official website.

Honestly, he deserves it. His finishing has been horrible all season and he not only blundered two obvious, easy chances...he took one away from Pique, who everyone and their grandmother knew was drooling not only for the goal but ULTIMATE humiliation. That random shot from 30 yards, when having...

He had a poor first half and that was obvious. Held onto the ball too long twice and almost lost it, also made three completely errant passes. Obviously still consumed the space as good as ever. He pulled it together in the second half. The only bad player was Alves, he was dreadful. And Munir...

Yea, Lavezzi would be a total waste of money; not a serious professional at all. Kind of ridiculous how all the candidates running for president were claiming to sign Pogba for 80-100mil and then not only not sign him, but now claim we are broke this season to the point we need to pay in...

Would be stupid to risk him for one game, especially when Madrid just dropped points. I rather have him the rest of the season.

I don't really count Mats or Halilovic. Halilovic was bought specifically to join the B team and develop him- he wasn't even 18 yet when we bought him. Mats was the new, young GK since Valdez decided to leave- every big team tries to do this because they know when they get a good one, they keep...

Exactly. We haven't had any class youngsters come through lately though, not since Thiago imo. Roberto is a squad player, a nice one to have. Rafinha just isn't good enough to me, same for Munir and Sandro. Our coach doesn't seem to believe in Denis Suarez and Deulofeu either. The only one that...

I'll have to disagree with you there. 27-28 year old players aren't players for the future. They are players for right now who are more towards the end of their prime than the beginning. Mathieu was like 30, the only truly older player we bought. Vermaelen, Suarez and Arda were all 28-29 when we...

Finishing and speed are two very important things to be lacking, considering one of them he can't even fix.

Poor guy has no decorative sense. What a horrible rug and center console!

I'm all for signing younger talent too, it doesn't make sense to keep signing all older players who you'll all have to replace at the same time in a few years. However, if we can't sign the young talent we need, or will fit us, then I rather not sign them. We have a couple of years of Messi at...

Good question. I think Lucho bought him because if he bought a "superstar" midfielder, he would be expected to play every game and that wouldn't bode well for Rafinha and Roberto- two players he clearly favors and really likes, ultimately wanting to give them playing time. Rakitic was a very...

He can troll all he wants, at the end of the day his team is in 16th place.

lol. I just imagine you closing your eyes tightly and wishing upon a star for him to stop being unremarkable.

The most entertaining thing about him is how he can dribble and pass really well with both feet, and how he uses his body to shield the ball. Had a really great game against Real Madrid, another player I'll start to follow a bit more closely (only seen him play two other times, for Sevilla and...

Never heard of him until now, seems like an interesting talent. The goalkeeping in some of his goals was very suspect though. What I like the most is the composure he has for an 18 year old. His first touch seems great and he finishes by placing the ball in corners with power- reminds me a lot...
