    That's how we drew with Man Utd at OT. Neutral
    Drawing with 11 man in the box isn't exactly great at all.

    A Polish club would've had the quality to go out and attack. Though we probably would've lost, it is much less disgraceful. Atleast Lech managed to push for a few results against Man City and Juventus.

    like Blackpool
    Exactly. cheers 2

    I don't see how going out and attacking to lose 3-0 is better than grinding out a 0-0 draw by playing 10 behind the ball.

    You realise the only reason Holloway plays like this is because he knows you'd lose just as badly if you tried to defend? He just wants a bit of publicity.

    Put it this way. Firstly assuming this result has no impact on any tables or anything.. Would you rather see Hull camp in the box with 11 men and be attacked by the better opposition ruthlessly for 90 minutes? Or would you rather loose, but atleast see Hull attacking and giving the better opposition trouble, and possibly scoring a goal or two?

    Besides, it has little relevancy. The point is that we have enough quality at the side to actually attempt to attack.

    I think Rangers would be worthy relegation favorites in the Championship. think
    Only because England is where all the money is now (in the UK anyway). Ten years ago the Old Firm would have done well (ie mid-table) in the EPL, whereas they would probably do ok in the Championship now; both sides have a few EPL class players.
    There's a bigger gap between the big leagues and the rest now, with a few exceptions like Portugal.

    Anyway, Adam isn't that bad shifty

    If it wasn't a competitive match then I wouldn't even take the result seriously nevermind care about how we played.

    I don't remember but I think Zielinski was an attacking coach. Lech got the first Juve result with him.

    Bakero is much more defensive minded than Zielinski but they still found a pretty nice balance between offensive and defense against the second Juve and City result. Bakero seemed to have reverted back to much more defensive style play he does in the league against Braga and Braga went on and knocked Lech out. Laughing

    Defensively he has been so poor.

    He has more flaws than positives.

    Firstly.. For real? I always care how my team plays in friendlies...

    Secondly, say it was competitive, but the result wouldn't have changed anything on the table. (Let's say Hull was in Europe and bottom of the group stage and the top two teams already qualified)

    I don't like losing though so i'd probably enjoy the 0-0 more. As i've said in the past, I enjoy watching defensive hanging on football rather than attacking and thrashing a team.

    Lampard and Mikel are completely different players. And it's no coincidence how we weren't as good with Mikel out of the team, then when he's in it, he's our metronome, the one who keeps us ticking, whether he makes a 10 yard pass, or a 50 yard pass. He also has great skill and technical ability.

    When he was young, and before he came to Chelsea, he was actually an attacking midfielder. However, his strength, height, and tackling ability was seen as more suited to playing DM, which it is. Just because he plays DM doesn't mean he can't pass, Xabi Alonso plays DM, can he not pass then?

    Mikel actually is pretty crucial to Chelsea's team, he keeps the flow going and his defends well in front of the back four, he's a much better player than Denilson, don't even play around.

    Did I say he couldn't pass? he passes the ball to a maximum of 10 yard it so much, don't even try it. If he was so great at passing he'd be used in an advanced midfield position as a more superior Pastore or Kaka

    Just because he isn't playing 50 yard balls every 5 minutes, does not mean he is a bad passer of the ball. 10 yard passes are crucial to the team, and Mikel knows when to play the long range, spectacular ball, when it's on, or whether to lay the ball off to another midfielder. He has several functions, he's not just there solely to play a Pirlo-esque role.

    No that's just not true. He has good long range ability but poor short range passing and most importantly has terrible judgement when it comes to choosing the right pass.
    His short passing is good.. but instead of playing short passes he plays defence cutting ones constantly to create chances. Hence his low pass completion percentage. If he played loads of short passes instead of what he does they wouldn't create half as many chances.

    Not even that though, he misplaces a lot of short range passes. Alarmingly in defensive areas which cost his team goals(or concede chances at the least)

    He doesn't really have much precision in his passing, hence being better at long rangers with more margin for error.

    I think if he had a team around him with similar ability he would play more safe balls but whats the point when firstly they will probably lose the ball anyway and secondly he can smash a hollywood ball and possibly create a goal.. which he does quite often. I see Adam play that crucial final ball a hell of alot more than for example Luka Modric.. who gets his dick sucked by everyone.

    No that's just not true. He has good long range ability but poor short range passing and most importantly has terrible judgement when it comes to choosing the right pass.
    His short passing is good.. but instead of playing short passes he plays defence cutting ones constantly to create chances. Hence his low pass completion percentage. If he played loads of short passes instead of what he does they wouldn't create half as many chances.

    Not even that though, he misplaces a lot of short range passes. Alarmingly in defensive areas which cost his team goals(or concede chances at the least)

    He doesn't really have much precision in his passing, hence being better at long rangers with more margin for error.
    I think if he had a team around him with similar ability he would play more safe balls but whats the point when firstly they will probably lose the ball anyway and secondly he can smash a hollywood ball and possibly create a goal.. which he does quite often. I see Adam play that crucial final ball a hell of alot more than for example Luka Modric.. who gets his dick sucked by everyone.

    It's not Modric's role to play defence splitting passes. Keeping the play ticking is an underappreciated art but Modric has it perfected.

    I think Ragners would be worthy relegation favorites in the Championship. Charlie Adam - Page 4 214775

    That's how we drew with Man Utd at OT. Neutral
    Drawing with 11 man in the box isn't exactly great at all.

    A Polish club would've had the quality to go out and attack. Though we probably would've lost, it is much less disgraceful. Atleast Lech managed to push for a few results against Man City and Juventus.

    like Blackpool

    You realise the only reason Holloway plays like this is because he knows you'd lose just as badly if you tried to defend? He just wants a bit of publicity.

    are we or are we not currently fighting in a relegation battle

    His role isn't to play them because he is no good at them. Charlie Adam has match winning talent, he is not shit like you said.

It wasn't simply because he's playing easy balls back to his centre backs, either; his accuracy in the final third was also higher than the United talisman's. Per data analysis firm Opta, Mikel's pass completion rate for the 09/10 season was an astonishing 89.8%, while he added almost five tackles per game, that figure also significantly above average. He's almost as good in the air as a defender, which is an odd trait for a midfield player, but one that serves to severely boost his value as a midfield shield.

    Boom. Mikel > all.

    Denilson had the highest competition rate a couple of seasons ago and he's fucking shit and always has been

    If Mikel is such an excellent passer then why isn't he picked infront of Lampard

    I'm hoping they've seen the light, we dodged a bullet big time.

    Nah, we're selling Aqua and buying him.

    You're selling an extremely technical midfielder for an overrated scotsman? seriously?

    It's not like we have a choice.
