Is because berbatov is injured, saf could had not play 4-4-2 formation, even with owen is on the bench, he is not those strikers like berba, where he can hold the ball, i'm actually not complaining anything about this game, Chelsea is just to strong for us at the moment, we could win them last season because of CR7. but now different case, seems like is a handicap for us right now

u guys are happy with this?

to be honest im not. we just waited around to pass the ball. no urgency to find the goal. rooney as a lone striker u must be shitting me. cos he cant stay on one spot. how the hell is the midfield can help you out where u are everywhere?

So now we have an answer, we need to buy another striker, period, if berba is injured, we cant do any real damage, but consider the Chelsea squad and our squad, we didn't lose so badly, please don't make this lose a bad thing.

the formation from start is WRONG:

1. Rooney as lone striker proven to be an epic fails many times YES

2. Giggs only good against mid table teams now due to his age Not really

3. Obertan should have on early rather than last 10 EXTREME YES

is true dude, did u watch how he play for the last 10 matches? u gonna puke

haloo.... RVP... Cesc... Eduardo? These players were no one until Wenger bought them. Only Arshavin is an established starter/star player.

RVP bought from feyenoord for 2.7M
Cesc brought thru Barca Academy for less than 1M
Eduardo.. no one really gave the guy a chance until Wenger. still he cost around 7M.

aiii...everytime lose dy then blame referee...imo..i thought the referee handle the match pretty well yesterday..of cos u cant hav every decision to goes ur own way..nevertheless..its a fair 1

wat bout the referee from mu vs man city game??..the guy tat gave super duper extra time..why dint see anyone criticize the referee here??...this is becos it goes the way man utd wanted...ever think of how would you feel if you were a man city fan??...zzz

so just stop be a loser and blame on the reff everytime we lose la...unless the reff again and again made the wrong decision..then he really deserve to be cursed

marah betul nampak... rilek ah... next game if we meet lower team we might see chance for obertan...

Restore back Rooney to his favorite left winger position.
He is jz not the player to look upon to score goals.
4-5-1 is not a failure formation provided tat 1 is RVN. And I noe tis is past tense.

flying kick yo...

Germany and Hannover 96 goalkeeper Robert Enke has died after being hit by a train and German police have confirmed that first indications point to suicide.

The 32-year-old died close to his home in Neustadt-Eilvese, Hannover, near a railway level crossing. "First indications point to suicide," a media officer for the Niedersachsen police said.

"At 1825 (1725GMT) he was run over by a regional express train running between Hamburg and Bremen," said police spokesman Stefan Wittke. "The train was travelling at the speed of 160-kph."

The player's friend and consultant Joerg Neblung told reporters: "I can confirm this is a case of suicide. He took his own life just before six (pm). There will be a press conference tomorrow with more details."

Enke won eight international caps and was in the running to play at the World Cup in South Africa next year. However, he missed Germany's last three qualifiers with a stomach virus and having just returned to action after almost two months out was omitted from the latest squad.

His national team colleagues learned of the tragic news of his death after training in Bonn on Tuesday and Germany's general manager Oliver Bierhoff said: "We are all shocked. We are lost for words."

The president of the German Football Association (DFB) Dr Theo Zwanziger added that he and the rest of the football community in Germany "are deeply distressed and in mourning".

"All our sympathy goes to the wife of Robert Enke and his family," he added.

It is not yet clear whether Germany's friendly against Chile on Saturday will still go ahead. Die Mannschaft are due face the Ivory Coast the following Wednesday.

Hannover president Martin Kind said: "This is a tragedy."

Enke, born in Jena in the former East Germany, also played club football for Borussia Moenchengladbach and Benfica and had a brief spell at Barcelona before stints with Fenerbahce and Tenerife.

Enke's daughter Lara died in 2006 of a rare heart condition when she was just two. He leaves behind his wife, Teresa, and an eight-month-old daughter the coupled had adopted

- Just thinking, Obertan is a left winger ryte? So if we can get both or either Silva and/or Ribery, wouldn't Obertan lose his first team position, like even in the bench??

In goal, Edwin van der Sar has won back his place easily but was 39 at the end of last month. Ben Foster and Tomasz Kuszczak have not done enough to support their claims as his successor.
