themanupstairs Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Once again a showing of Matic proportions. The Serb has earned a ton of praise for what he has brought to Chelsea this season (rightly so), and Abeid has been a carbon copy in that midfield for us.

buzza Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 I think him and colback make a for a really good pairing tbh... moussa in front of them gives us some forward drive. Mehdi is always lookign for a positive pass, nothing gerrardesque (which I like) but always moving forward. I quite like the team set up at the moment, imagine if we had a cesc type midfielder we'd be a carbon copy of chelsea... cough *** cough*** Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skeletor Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Glad he's shining now. Sad that Pardew will take the credit for it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pilko Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Another steady, strong, controlled performance. Aside from that hospital ball he played to Coloccini in the first half he didn't do anything wrong. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Disco Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Another steady, strong, controlled performance. Aside from that hospital ball he played to Coloccini in the first half he didn't do anything wrong. Wasn't even that bad. Anichebe was nowhere near getting it and should've been booked for ploughing through Coloccini. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He undercooked it a touch like, but agree re: Anichebe being lucky to escape a card for the challenge on Colo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ponsaelius Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Yeah he seemed to get criticised for the pass just because Anichebe killed Colo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geordie Ahmed Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Class, chuffed he is playing really well Playing alongside Colback further highlights how good he is because he is involved all the time whilst Colback is a passenger with the odd decent moment Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Howaythetoon Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 He was quite wasteful in good areas in an attacking sense today, but what I liked about him is his constant demand for the ball, even when marked. That's the sign of a confident player and indeed a good player. Defensively he was superb. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Moves the ball faster and crisper than Tiote, actually has some presence and provides dat der tackle unlike Anita. Anita's emergence is the end for one of them imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kanj Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 He's bossed the midfield in all of his starts. Evidence enough he has to be 2nd name on the team sheet after Mous Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 Also nicely involved in both goals wasn't he? Simple but effective passes. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted November 9, 2014 Share Posted November 9, 2014 With Abeid here, I don't see why Colback needs to play at the same time really. We could be making that spot a more advanced position for Anita to link things up. Anita doesn't deserve to play. Colback on the left of a three likes to tuck in and retain shape allowing Haidara to bomb on works very well. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TaylorJ_01 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Colback was alright second half tbf. Standard 6/10. I don't think he'll ever get a higher mark than that to be honest. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AyeDubbleYoo Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 Colback was alright second half tbf. Standard 6/10. I don't think he'll ever get a higher mark than that to be honest. I found it hard to rate Colback, he was generally anonymous but then he would make some good interventions at times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I found it hard to rate Colback, he was generally anonymous but then he would make some good interventions at times. He's such a boring player. Because he doesn't do anything in particular he doesn't do anything wrong. Crowd loves a run and tackle though so he'll generally be well received.
