No one created a discussion about Roberto's team selection..
yes, he finally decided to sit Lamps and JT.. that is something.. Come the end of season scrappy wins like today are going to be decisive..

RDM gave Moses more minutes - which is also proving crucial..

Or is there Roman's hand in this too??



Luiz was pretty solid in the absence of JT - that was great..

Hope the youngsters gel well.

Also Moses gets better roles - the kid didn't make one incomplete pass or run..
 
I don't think we should be playing a attacking mid 3 of Hazard-Oscar-Mata. As evidence today (the Stoke game), all of them were attempting to play the #10 role, which meant Torres became immensely isolated. We should only really be playing 2 of them at most, or even drop Oscar back into CM. We really lacked width today, as soon as Moses came on we looked a lot better. In the future I really hope RDM employs actually wingers, using Moses on the right and making sure whoever is on the LW (Hazard/Marin) doesn't just move inside to play #10.

If we play Mata/Oscar/Hazard againts Arsenal we will get destroyed.
 
I read today in the Times that RDM has made it clear thar Hazard , Oscar and Mata will very rarely all play in the same line up together! Having watched today I can see why!
 
There's a certain element of truth in that. I reckon Oscar may be considered from CDM in future.
 
Yeah, interesting development that. They are all trying to play #10, which I previously described as "running around like chooks without heads" .
Everything is flicks and back heels. We are screaming out for a "conductor" to run the show. Mata, Oscar and Hazard should be dynamite together if we can just get some direction into our play.
Interestingly ,the 2 players on our books who play that way are Piazon and Josh. Any chance we might see one of them get a go ?? Lukaku continues to make progress, haven't heard a peep about Josh.
