They could do worse than getting Diego back, or even Mata if his situation continues. Considering how they play wouldn't it be a bit counter productive? Mata wouldn't be able to put in the work Simeone wants from his players either. I think eventually Oliver Torres will force his way in anyway.

Guest VanBarduck Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 Also, am I the only one who thinks bale and ronaldo partnership won't work ? Sure, they could both score hat-tricks against Getafe or Osasuna, but when they'll face a well organized CL team... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still struggle for goals often at home/away to the lesser sides where so much intensity isn't needed. Get your point though. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

brummie Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 So already we've seen: Villa beat Arsenal at the Emirates. Cardiff beat Man City (okay, at home). Southampton beat Liverpool at Anfield. West Brom beat Man Utd at Old Trafford. Wonder how we'll get on against the teams we can't compete with this season. Be nice to improve on the 2 home wins we recorded last season. Villa also beat Man City today too. Villa are shocking at home, I've heard. Beyond shocking. 9 losses in the last 13 before today.

Koke's actually allright, very underrated player. But they lack backups. Do agree ( why i said eventually ) and i really like Koke, thought that curler that hit the bar was going in. Also agree on depth, they do it lack it but they do lack the finance to really do a lot about it due to all that mismanagement over the years. They will probably falter at some point, one thing i will say though i wouldn't want to play them in the CL they are a very dangerous cup team as last couple of years has shown.

brummie Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I have to say, when you consider that so far this season, we've played Arsenal, Chelsea and Norwich away, and Liverpool, Newcastle and Man City at home, nine points is a pretty decent return. Especially when you factor in that we could quite easily have won at Chelsea. Those are some difficult fixtures there. If only we could conjure up some consistent form at home.

Mole_Toonfan Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I really want them to do it but i still can't see Arsenal winning the league. Reminds me of the season they last went close in 07-08, started well but lack of depth told in the end.... lack of decent cover at the back and at upfront will hurt them in the end i feel.

At least when everyones fit of course.... all of it goes out the window if Remy or/and Hatem are injured. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mole_Toonfan Posted September 28, 2013 Share Posted September 28, 2013 I saw in his post match Sham Allarfarce is still bitching about not beating us a month later. Here's an idea you c*nt, stop looking for excuses and fix what problems your team has. Oh wait you have no clue how do you? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JH Posted September 29, 2013 Share Posted September 29, 2013 "To win the Champions League, you need five or six world-class players." "Look at Bayern Munich, they have it. Look at Barcelona, who had it in the past and Real Madrid, who have maybe got it now. That's the level you have to be at to win it. We've not got that yet but what we have got is experience." That'll go down like a lead balloon in Manchester. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
