[ENG] Premiership 2012/2013 (21 Viewers)

[Osman]

Chelsea have not been very convincing this season, the transition from being a pragmatic physically strong team into a more fluid attacking side, has not been very smooth so far. Its unfair to judge them this quickly though to be fair.

I am only judging them on this game and vs Atletico, they have no central mid worth a damn, can't impose themselves there at all. Also played too defensive wings today, which was weird...

They do have a very soft center. I was shocked when they let go of Meireles really. He made a decent midfield duo with Lampard last season, added some much needed dynamism and energy to Chelsea's midfield. I mean i'd understand(well not really) benching him for Mikel, but to actually sell him, was a really bad move if you ask me. Mikel is static and slow, and playing him beside Lampard just makes their center slow, cumbersome and static. RDM has made quite a few strange decisions last summer.

Well, you don't exactly need to be a genius to make your team park the bus. Now that he has to actually play possession football since Abramovich wants so, his tactical shortcomings are exposed.

It also doesn't help that he didn't sign a quality CM.

feel bad for Liverpool, look completely directionless.

Why they sold Meireles is beyond me, they should've replaced him or upgraded. Our biggest shot at winning vs Chelsea is the midfield battle, Marchisio and Vidal will run circles around Lampard and Mikel, physically we're much stronger.

The only English Club that I respect.

They made those punks cry and I loved it.

I'm eager to see how Luiz/Cahill and the slow Terry can deal with Pirlo's long balls.

I think we're going to win on Wednesday, even though we have sucked in England over the years. There is something about Conte's Juve that is different.

Heysel?

Fuck them.

Suarez is too good for this Liverpool side...

Tell me about it, and then he made things worse by loaning out Essien too

Juve will win the midfield battle without a doubt, RDM needs to understand his team's deficiencies, park the bus and try and counter attack you guys.

Heysel?

Fuck them.

They're fucking hooligans. But hooligans that gave Milan hope, lots hope, then crushed the hope, then made them cry. Ooooooh look at the fans cry.

Tbh, I believe if it wasn't for Conte, we would have been in a similar situation as Liverpool are now.

 

[Fr3sh]

True that, I kinda feel sorry for them too.

Probably.

Before Conte you were in a similar situation to Pool

Not really.

We may had finished 7th place twice, but unlike Liverpool, we weren't selling our current star players.

 

[Dostoevsky]

They suck for a lot longer and their transfer policy is even a bigger joke than Secco's.

 

[.zero]

Pool is a hot mess

 

[Fr3sh]

I think we were in a worse situation! We got relegated, went from one of the best to Serie B contenders overnight, not to mention all the damages that were inflicted upon us during the relegation. I don't understand how Liverpool fucked shit up.

 

[Fred]

Man Sessegnon is a really good player.
