Azpi!!

btw, McEachran and Chalobah loaned till Jan 2014 only right? sos wikipedia

btw, I doubt Vidal will leave Juventus, so no point chasing. But if any other team were to snap him up, i'd be pissed.

I wonder how's the situation with Mata and KDB. Of course the media will make it seem drastic. However if they are missing in during the Derby game, it'll be a clear implication.

JM has been quoted stating that 100% no striker this window.
I'm guessing that'll be the case if none of our current strikers leave.

Similar boss defending to Terry. I believe he can emulate Terry's mentality and leadership qualities too.

If this is true then it would logical for him to start this game, but didn't even make the bench. I think best option is to leave. I was looking forward for him to finally play for Chelsea after 1 and 1/2 seasons on loan, however that dream is short-lived. Plenty of decent teams elsewhere will value his services more than us, wouldn't blame him if he decides to leave the Bridge.

damn cool wei

Why Schrulle rest? played 50min in the last 3 games?

I guess so. Trust JM.

If eto blindly take shots when he has the ball, his chance conversion rate will be higher.

Oscar took few decent strikes, but always a bit off target.

called it

Oscar scored. Too much neymar not always bad thing.

I think the matter is not that Moyes is doing badly, its just that Ferguson was doing extremely well. I always wondered how the current team was able to win the title last season. Hats off the Fergie for that. But the results now are more comprehensible given the quality of the team. But Moyes is capable of overachieving with weaker squads, just that he needs more time to get the players he wants.

On a less serious note, I hope Moyes just keeps on doing what he's doing now.

Highly doubt 25mil target will be met by buyer club. Quite a high valuation by Chelsea, given his playing chances this season. I would be happy(given the situation of course ) with 20m. Its unfortunate that it didn't work out with KDB, but it's a good piece of business from the club. Also this would give us the means to bring in another player.

Rooney. Anyday. No nonsense striker.

Not very interested on Balotelli. He didn't do that well in City even with an array of stars playing alongside him. Not sure how he's doing in Milan though. I feel he lacks consistency. However, I think he can do better than our strikers now.

Using phone, lazy to quote and bold. Anyways what's with the mention Mata being Scholes replacement? They couldn't be more different.

dafuq, all nighter?

good luck brader

Hull game beware. Huddlestone in form. Should go hard on attack and get in the game early. I reckon Mata to start. If he does, hope he plays in the center because he's quite poor out wide especially in Mou's system. If Utd game should influence the team selection vs Hull, I'd give Schrulle a start as well. Hazard started showing signs of fatigue. Ideally we should leave him out of the squad all together vs Tigers, our team is capable of taking care of this game, on paper that is.

Our last two victories resulted from game changing substitutions. Hope against Hull, we wouldn't require the need for that to secure maximum points.

I feel the same yo. SAF was so powerful, I wished I could've have seen him struggling just once
Now, I just feel bad for Moyes, the squad isn't good enough but it was successful under SAF.

Meireles exit was a shocker. Especially with no replacement lined up. Actually we missed him quite a lot as we always have pivot problems after that. He was bought after Modric chase collapsed, did pretty well during his sole season at the Bridge. As for Kalou, cannot say we needed to keep him. He was replaced with Hazard, plus Moses, Marin and Oscar were coming into the side too. Therefore Kalou's exit was imminent.
