Who was that nonce that laughed at us and said we'd never even get near £30m for Luiz? Was it you Shergar?
Which might explain why you are not in football management. Brazil, PSG and Chelsea don't agree with you. Who to side with ??? Tough call.
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
The reason for this is that you didn't have a Makelele because the role was invented after him because he was so good at it, it was called the Makelele role as you quoted. Just look at the duffers you have tried in the role.........Carrick
I believe we also set the recored for the most win by 7 or more goals in a season with 4 in total 7-2 vs Sunderland 7-1 vs Aston Villa 7-0 vs Stoke 8-0 vs Wigan 103 goals still the all time PL recored as well as the all time PL points recored for one season 95. We have an awful lot of recoreds that our rivals are yet to beat.
LOL. King Shergar is the like Matth 2011/12. Whatever he says: the opposite comes true. He is a fantastic reverse jinx and crucial in our CL run this season
Not really as they never set the record for fewest goals conceded that year. The year they set the record was when Jose was there like 4 years earlier
40 Million Makes me even think something dodgy is going on and Chelsea and PSG should be investigated
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
4 years later than what? We didnt park the bus AT all in the league in Jose's first spell at Chelsea. We smashed your lot home and away on many an occassion, no buses required!
The 2010 season showed that even in a ultra attacking side, we still owned you on goal difference. Conceded 4 more goals but scored an extra 17. Better goal difference. Why am I even arguing with you? You should have resisted lad.
