I missed the Arsenal game, but i watch the Chelsea vs Man UTD game and i was not impressed at all, by neither of them. If Mourinho thinks hes going to win the EPL by playing like that, hes another thing coming...a kick in the balls.

It kind of looked like every man for himself, with the occasional nice link up play. I also noticed they defended in drastic numbers, i found myself wondering if they had more than 11 players on the pitch a few times!

Thats Chelski's weakness, their whole team is basicaly new meaning that they don't know each other very well and if you want to play as a team you have to know your team mates gameplay.

Chelsea has a 50-50 of winning, and I think Arsenal are far bigger competion than Chelsea. However Arsenal gets cocky too much after they score which will be their downfall when they play us 

KOP-1892 wrote:I know what you mean madred and its probably unfair of me to say that. But going by their supporters and such, it a fair comment. I think every one has over rated Chelsea because of the quality in their squad, but getting them to play together is another story.

Time will tell with them, theres a lot of different playing styles in that team to consider, they may need a whole year to learn how to gel with one another. But imo, they are far more beatable than what people think.

KOP-1892 wrote:I think sometimes football clubs need 2-3 players that are not top quality but have more passion. It adds team spirit imo, kind of like Carragher and Liverpool. Im not saying Jamie is a bad player, but hes not world class, his abilities are his passion and commitment, his willingness to always give his all no matter what situation hes in.

I think world class players drop the head too easily, imagine that in a squad full of them!

I hope you all understand what i mean by that and don't rag on me lol.

I am more worried about Arsenal being our competion then I am about Chelsea [Chelsea only managed to score one goal against Man Utd while Arsenal beat them 3-1 withtout any problems]

If we want to challenge Arsenal's title we need to get the players we need, fast. When we do play Arsenal or any other club for that matter,possesion of the ball is important. One mistake and we might let a goal in, so LFC has a lot of work to do.

But I think games against Arsenal we can draw and win one at Anfield.

For once you make an Excellent point!

This is what Ive been saying all along. BUt the likes of Stu the red thinks you can just give Danny Murphy and Diouf and other Ex players there a "magic" team talk and they will become better players! Without any changes

Im relying on Rafa to bring in these players, but we do need them quick.

He loved the club that much he left and then slated choices that the club had made, he was just bitter because he wasn't good enough 

madred wrote:Yeah id agree with that KOP 1892. Thats why i was gutted to see Danny go. Granted he wasnt the most spectacular player but you could see he loved the club and gave everything.

Oppsss, this is the quote I meant to use
