At this rate, Mata might not play a single game in Jan.

Topoftheleague woiii

he will play a massive role against united.

TOp of the table..

2 - Fernando Torres has scored in back-to-back Premier League appearances for the first time since December 2012. Settled.

Job well done. Precious 3 pts well earned. Hazard goal open up the game for us. Hopefully Newcastle can cause upset against man city.

3 points.
great games.
kesian oscar no luck tonight.

and Aston Villa as well against Arsenal on Monday:)

I don't think moi will field him. Mata didn't fare very well against attacking team. I predict mou keep this lineup against united. William provide more in defense.

seeee. told u guyss. 0-2

1) Hazard is currently playing very very well, his individual brilliance is opening up the game for us. He is bringing a positive auro to the team whenever he scores. Whenever he scores, we seems to play with an up tempo after that.

2) Torres scored back to back. Southampton, now Hull City. It's a bit premature, but I do sure hope the Liverpool Torres is back!

3) Clean sheet. Cahill and Terry is proving to be the best CB partnership we have.

4) Mata. I'm sorry mate. Oscar and co are winning games for us. U'll have to wait for ur chances.

5) Bring on United!

KTBFFH!

I never say he will start..I just said that he will play massive role against them hahahaha

Yea. Maybe as a super sub, giving 1 assist and scoring from a freekick.

Positioning matters, u dont expect player to make a difficult pass to him just for the sake of finding him. While ETO movement offer himself to receive the ball, drag player to him, make space for others and then do a clean pass. TORRES just dont do this enough and most of the times he was not able to make a clean pass and lose the ball. But well today his score, i got no complain, he can be invisible for 89min but if he keep scoring every game he deserve to be first 11

U diam!!!! Arrgghhhh!!!

P/s actually ur point is true

luiz made some good interceptions but then, always lose easy ball, pass straight to the opponent.

anyway, hazard as usual, trademark move. everyone knows it, but nobody can stop him.

Actually I'm a Mata's fan as well, especially after his performance last season. The goal against Arsenal. Superb wei. But Mou, this genius manager is proving me wrong. I have ntg bad to say about Mou and Oscar. Only can respect's Mou's decision as long as it is winning us games.

editted. It was the volley against Man Utd. and also the long range screamer against Arsenal in this season's Capitol One Cup.

Hopefully. Lol. Another player I want to see playing against united is ba. Highly unlikely though. Really pity him. Didnt get as much chances compare to torres and etoo.

I have to agree with this. This lineup is the closest thing we have to a formidable side. Still in the works though. We still can't seem to create clear cut chances and convert them to goals. Until we are able to do that, we'll have to rely on industry and individual brilliance.

Conversely, that very issue could be fixed, or at least improved with the inclusion of Mata, while sacrificing the defensive work rate. Another thing is that Willian have grown on me a lot. Out wide, Hazard and Willian have the spots wrapped up. He's quick, strong, good on the ball, hardworking defensively. It's not too bad of a buy I would say. This means only way Mata will play is in place of Oscar. I have to say Oscar is not been at his best attacking wise. We are all used to his high standard with passing and work rate, which he delivers on a weekly basis, but he has not been overly brilliant. He's my favourite player and I want him improve even more. Wouldn't mind if Mata gets to give it a go in that position, however Jose is more than aware of the trade-off of qualities involved.
