I wouldn't pay 50p for Luiz let alone £50mil. Is and always will be a liability.

Which pairing holds the best defensive record in the PL, stat boy?

Rio and Vidic played in a much more attacking side, they didn't have Makalele and others parked infront of them playing for a 1 or 2-0 win. We wouldn't have been able to play so expansive if we'd had Terry and Carvalho as they'd be to slow and would get exposed all the time. Terry and Carvalho where great in a side that parks the bus, but they wouldn't have lasted 5 mins in an attacking side![]()


They both played in the Chelsea team that scored most goals in a premier league season! There's your argument destroyed straight away![]()

I believe we also set the recored for the most win by 7 or more goals in a season with 4 in total
Side by side, in a team that scored 103 goals....a PL record, with 7-0 and 8-0 wins.....
Who was that nonce that laughed at us and said we'd never even get near £30m for Luiz? Was it you Shergar?

That year though you conceded 32 goals, and we only conceded 28![]()

Changing the goalposts again then?
So you conceded 4 less goals than us one year? But we managed to score like 30 more goals (and won beat you to the title that year I might add).
Even if we bought your pseudo stat based Bullsh*t, why would Rio and Vidic being better in an attacking team make them better defenders anyway?
We smashed the league by a record points total in 05!![]()

No you guys are the ones moving the goal posts as your using stats from 4 years later, to prove they didn't play in a defensive side. When they broke the record your whole team was parking the bus, as you've always done under Mourinho.
Ofcourse it makes them better defenders, as when you play in an attacking side, the defence gets a lot less cover. In a Mourinho side it's a lot easier being a defender, as you've got most of the midfield parked infront of you providing cover![]()
