Just realised Pedro has a 1 in 4 record for us from the wing. That's not that bad.

I think the more he plays the better he will do. I like him a lot and brings quite a bit to the team. I would like to see what Fabregas will do if presented with 20 min left on the clock. Maybe replacing Matic for that time?

Quick thought, Fabregas played as a false 9 for Spain and Barcelona atimes and for Barcelona was atimes a secondary striker and was quite prolific in front of goal maybe it might be worth trying him there think he'll be a better fit to the role than playing deeper in this formation, thoughts?

I think that would be an option if we went back to 4-2-4 but personally think he'll move on.

Whould hate to see him move on though. He does have quality maybe a 2nd striker. i dnt know.

I think fabreagas best position would be in a 3 man midfield, have the energy and power of matic and Kante with fabreagas knitting everything together, passing creating and dictating play, when we attack he would arrive in the box becoming the 3 rd forward behind hazard and Costa, and when we defend he goes back goal side and is another body between ball and our goal, I think first half against Spurs we was crying out for the 3rd man in midfield and higher ball possesion, I think city on Saturday will have a similar pattern.

@CAT I fully agree. Good standpoint about Fab.

I'll put my neck on the line and predict that if we carry on top of table, we'll win the league.

I believe that's generally how it works. The team that is top of the table come may wins the league. ;)

Is anybody watching the Arsenal game? I think Ake is having a awesone game so far!

Ake was brilliant. Easily one of Bournemouth's best players. He Read the game superbly, but was let down by his teammates at times.
I can definitely see him having a future at Chelsea, at LWB, LCB or CM.

Agree2 Disagree0

That's what I read online. On the Arsenal page Dags has said that Ake played a good game, made some timely blocks and looked composed on the ball. So that sounds good.

Agree0 Disagree0

28 Nov 2016 01:53:02
From what I saw of the game he did make some important blocks and good tackles and overall did have a good game. There were some minor mistakes but nothing too bad as far as i'm aware.

Agree1 Disagree0

28 Nov 2016 09:42:13
Yes he is def. one for the future.

Just want to know where the idea that we need to replace Alonso has come from all of a sudden?! Bloke has been great since coming in, we finally have full backs that can cross!

I think he's pretty good, he's not the quickest though, he's playing well atm as is everyone, I can sort of see if people are not totally convinced, hopefully he'll be a solid 7/ 10 reliable type of guy, he doesn't look the most athletic of people, and wing back is the most demanding place to play, I suppose only time will tell, he's only played 6/ 7 games for us so any judgement on him being good enough or not is a tad premature for me, give him a full season then see if he's good engouh to play for a team challenging for the title or not.

Not to mention the fact that most people want Shaw who has seems to be having some mental issues and has had issues with his weight since the time he was at Soton.

Agree1 Disagree3

Fuser I bet Moses was even in more mess @ a point in his career than Shaw before he suddenly become our important player under Conte. It is different thing playing for another coach in different environment. We need English players who with all due respect, have limited quality players.
