do we really need Pogba? I think for the moment with Rami and Mikel as backup we are gooding.... if Pogba comes, someone will have to give way... interesting to see how much is Hazard's new deal gonna worth... am sure he will demand higher wages... Real is keen to grab him coming transfer... maybe as early as January... but the problem with Real Madrid now is not offense... it's their defense that is lacking... Ramos is poor this few games.... they should buy defensive players... not attacking players....

Pogba = matic. Dont think we need him atm. Maybe need another proven cb. Zouma still too raw.

Mainly due to homegrown and depth
and juventus relax je having vidal and pogba.
I love when we have luiz and matic combo last seasons.
Y not both.

if use both. too defensive imo. our current set up is balance dy. need some work on defense though. hopefully, we will see improvement in next 2 or 3 games.

An interesting analysis on fabregas.


I think it going to take a while for fabregas to learn how to play more efficiently at pivot.

a very gud watch. Cesc no doubt is gud in attacking and playing passes or 1-2 pass. But his positional awareness is not that great. Which is why he always didn't get to play in the 'Xavi' role in Barca and resulting Barca to push him to a more forward position. I read from the comment. Barca actually sacrifice a bit to adapt to Cesc's style, but in the end to no avail. They even push Iniesta to the wide side and let Cesc play the creator role. But in the end maybe they feel it's not worth it to sacrifice the team's style compared to Cesc's lack of positional awareness.

He always look to go forward, leaving too much space for Matic to cover.

So i think against big team like City, Mou might revert to 433. Ram, Matic and Cesc in midfield. Ram to cover for Cesc's forward play.

If Mou is playing Ram, Matic and Cesc as a midfield trio, it really make us wonder, why not go for Pogba. With Pogba, MAtic and Cesc playing in 433, it is unstoppable!

anyone taking leave tomorrow to watch the match tonight?

i think oscar is better than cesc playing the pivot role coz oscar is better in tackling , work rate and closing down compared to cesc.

but cesc vision and through pass is simply masterclass.

i guess its too early for that..
maybe when on knock out round only will people take leave to watch the game..

instead of splashing cash for Pogba (by all means he's a great player), we should just utilize Rami in that pivot. He's been brilliant this season a reminiscence of former himself couple of seasons back.

the number 10 position should be Fabregas, no brainer. Oscar is good but in terms of creativity and passing ability hands down for Fabregas.
