Aye I think Abeid is better at holding the midfield. Would like to see 433 done properly but it won't happen.

Cabella cisse ayoze with de Jong just behind them has potential.

Nah it's definitely aimed at Cisse. It's disgusting.

Both should be banned but I agree 6 games is crazy.

Hardly an obsession. I don't even think we've played 4-4-2 properly under Carver.

Was more of a 4-2-3-1 on Saturday, and Riviere was still well behind Cisse last night. And Carver only had 2 CM's to pick from as he's clearly pissed off with Anita and Taylor had to play LB (and his nowhere near fit enough to play CM).

Reckon Colback will be in for Riviere, next game.


4231 with a striker (who is awful,btw) in AMC is pretty much 442. They're never going to track back properly to help the midfield and are never gonna be capable of building play properly. Unless they're a deep lying striker which Rivière clearly isn't.

433/451 is the way forward, 442 is too easy to play against, especially with two centre midfielders like Abeid and Sissoko who love giving the ball away.

I know the CM position is depleted but then again we should stop selling players and not replacing them.

Colback Tiote Sissoko is a decent CM trio - just need to get it into Tiotes head to tackle and win the ball then play it simple instead of thinking he's Cabaye.

Provides protection for our awful back 4 too.

Cabella Cisse Ayoze upfront.

Fucking hope the club give Ryan Taylor and Jonas new deals (if they want them).


Anyway weirdly warming to John Carver more and more.


Yeah I'd give those 2 new deals too, only a year though.

His obsession with 4-4-2 is annoying me - Obertan and Ameobi are hopeless. Our only attacks of any note yesterday (Perez to Cisse and Sissoko to Riviere) came through the middle - although Cisse did have a chance from a header.

It's unsustainable - we'll never move forward playing 4-4-2 with poor wingers. Although then again we'll never move forward under Mike Ashley.

Nah you can't combine bets like that - however Agbonlahor 2-1 would have been decent odds.

I'm waiting on Arsenal, Man Utd and Liverpool from my accumulator yesterday for £178.

Annoys me how two injuries to starting defenders and we're so thin on the ground Ryan Taylor has to play.

Why oh why did we let MYM and Santon leave.

Aye, Ashley would be decent for Rangers - he'll be able to get them into the SPL and most likely the CL on very minimal investment.

Which will make him more money.

#250111 Liverpool 3-4-3, Finally

I'd say Liverpool's central 2 were a mixture of CM(d) for the Joe Allen role and BBM(s) for Henderson.

Although when Gerrard plays it is more of a CM(s) for Gerrard and BBM(s) - probably explains why they're winning more when Gerrard isn't playing this year.

Interesting tactic though, I want to play 3-4-3 on FM but fear it'll be shit.

Online slots have the worst RTP going though - if you're going to play them you should pretty much expect to lose money the majority of the time

I won $100 in a casino in Sharm El-Sheik the other day, and £72 on blackjack when I was bored on my phone in the airport waiting for my plane.

Quite outrageous how they've named him before finding him guilty or anything - the stigma of being a raging nonce will be attached to him for the rest of his career now

But anyway - his Mam came out this morning basically slagging the girl off for being in a nightclub so he's probably done it - not sure if he can be found guilty of statutory rape if the victim has lied about her age to him.

It does however make him a bit of a predator - especially as he's got a wife and kids.

442 like that with a poacher and a runner and two shit but fast wingers is best left in the 1980s.

Hope we don't start playing like that all the time.

Cisse though

Aye but Liverpool haven't relied heavily on Henderson all season.

He's alright in a midfield 3, too technically limited to perform well in a midfield 2 though. Although he did have a good game yesterday in a two.

Why? The only thing he does wrong at the moment is trying to mimic those Hollywood long balls. Other than that he does his own thing, awesome player although maybe not captain material yet


The time he tried to grab the England captaincy from Rooney too - he's a good player, wouldn't say awesome.

Certainly shouldn't be starting week in week out for a top 4 side.

Hilarious how much Henderson wants to be Gerrard.

Nowhere near good enough.

Anita and Jonas are midfielders, not defenders. Ryan Taylor won't be fully fit.

And he cashed in on Mbiwa and Santon because he was under the (wrong) impression that their values would dwindle.

They've moved on and both played European football since.

And even still, they were both sold without replacements - the fact we failed to get good money for good players isn't a good thing. They needed replaced regardless of how much they went for, which wasn't done.

Cabella now injured too.

Quite obvious this would happen when Ashley cashed in on players without replacing them.

Not so sure we can call it an injury crisis though, considering we've only actually lost 2 defenders to injury.

Not berating the club for having racist fans, we're berating them for not attempting to change this for many years. Racism has been constant in Chelsea's matchgoers. Their going fanbase to games is the exact same as when my parents where Arsenal home & away and they said Chelsea were full of scum back then in the 70's/80's and clearly it hasn't changed since. You would've thought that the club would be trying more actively to get rid of these morons especially with the amount of racists incidents around the club in the past few years.

Millwall get the same stick and deservedly so.


The fact you're tarring all Chelsea fans with the same brush is incredibly ironic.

Yes, how horrible of him to be ambitious.

I doubt Everton fans shed many tears when players from clubs further down the football food chain join them because they are a "big club".


It's fair enough saying it if you're playing well and smashing in goals (although still best kept private, imo)

But Lukaku has been in horrible form all season.
