Michu is going to get his first Spanish cap next month against Uruguay.

im not surprised he would play the false num 9 so much more effectively than fabregas

Probably because he is a false 9 and Fabregas isn't

well no shit

Spain are becoming stronger and stronger though, wouldn't be surprised to see them winning the coming world cup too.

They've got youngsters like Mario Suarez, Thiago, Muniain, Obiang and Isco ready to step in in the coming year. A bit thin in defence, but it shouldn't be too much of a problem to them.

Van Persie strikes again

 

[Lancelot]

If we only had Van Persie. . .

 

[Klin]

Oh Robin...

 

[jukazem]

Van Persie's movement is just amazing; makes it look like no-one is marking him.

where are the people who didn't want him

 

[Alen]

He's scored a few of those screamers in the Ligue so he definetely has it in him. Kids got loads of potential.

@Alen, @Trequartista

He has lot of potential to be a flop. And he's totally showing it so far. He's proving to be a 5-10m eur player who was paid 40m euro

Agreed. Anyone can score a nice goal against a scrub team like Stoke. However, Hazard flops every time he plays against a good team, whether its the top 4 in England, the CL, or with Belgium.

I don't think there are any people who didn't want him, in the context you are suggesting.

those youngsters? they're still gonna play the team they've been always playing bar puyol. it's easy to forget how young some of their players still are considering they've been winning everything since 2008.

swag is one.

i don't see a context in which you wouldn't want him anyways.

trust me there were, those who said "he is a one season wonder" or "too injury prone" and "He isn't worth 20 mill because he is almost 30"

 

[ALC]

damn, milner raped the ball there.

Cost against injury record, which is a fair point. United's total bill for him is over €80m. That he is on fire and stayed fit so far is not relevant to the original argument, you'd be adding hindsight.

 

[Hist]

I never understood all the hype surrounding Wilshere. He is good given his age but there are plenty of central midfielders who are far superior to him.

 

[Goodfella]

Like Pogba.

 

[Hist]

The hype surrounding pogba shrinks in comparison
