Juan Manuel Mata

[PearLBLacK]

Fair enough. Now that I think about it, he pinges it on the ground straight to player's feet numerous times. But it's hardly the tiki-taka style passing through the crowd that I was referring to. Replace bolded part with "not as good as the others"

Touché. Right now, with all honesty, I'd put Alonso at 3rd best, behind Xavi and Pirlo in whatever order.

He'll replace Cronaldo at Real next season.

Doubt that. He said he wants to stay at Chelsea as long as they want him.

Pirlo is the king of long passes, no one can come close to him in the art of long ball passes

Gerrard.

Lmaooo.

Not sure if you're taking the piss or not but it is amusing!

Gerrard.

Gerrard isnt even the best in the north of England at long passes!

 

[loozy]

Have you seen him play the last couple of matches? Or the assist for Carroll's & Lescott's goals during the Euros?

I am not saying he is as good as Pirlo, but he is, imo, coming close. Not really close, but close

I hope it's for a long time. I love Juan Mata

Gerrard's long passing is superb one of his best attributes.

^ Don't like him much, but his crosses are almost always pinpoint

He was absoloutely brilliant yesterday, doesn't deserve to be playing in this shit team at the moment. 16 goals and 20+ assists already in what has been one of our worst seasons to date - add that to the similar figures he achieved in a very disjointed season, the man is a class act.

Hazard will be back from suspension next week, hopefully refreshed and ready to show the same form as he did at the start of the season, ease the pressure off of Mata who seems to be a one man creative machine for us right now.

in what has been one of our worst seasons to date

Wow people have really short memories.
