Sergio Busquets

Matic is not overrated, and definitely not "massively". Once he was taken off, PSG took even more control of the game and scored 2 goals btw.

If Matic is not overrated then I'm Mother Teresa of Calcutta.

All EPL players are massively overrated. Cesc looks like the second coming in that league.

Cesc's stats were similar to his La Liga stats. As far as contribution to the team, many agree that Hazard and Matic were more crucial.

I dont care who will play as a DM, I just DONT want to see Mascerano as a central defender. Real madrids game is like 80% just endless crosses for benzema, bale and Penaldo to head in. We need height in our defense and Mathieu played really good against shitty, plus he's faster than Mascerano. If busquets is fully fit

BRAVO
ALVES PIQUE MATHIEU ALBA
RAKITIC BUSQUETS INIESTA
MESSI SUAREZ NEYMAR

I doubt Busi will play. Lucho said he's not fully fit yet (to play an intense game like El Clasico at least).

Hello mother teresa

On a serious note Matic is very good but he hasnt been tested enough

Football isnt about stats. Or do you think Iniesta has been an awful player over the last 10 years because his stats are awful??? Iniesta was the best player in the 2012 Euros and he didnt score a single goal and had 1 assist in the whole tournament.

Fact of the matter is that players like Cesc and also Silva are considered almost God-like in that league. Its ridiculous.

But why do we need to control the game? It's Real that have to come at us.

Although Busquets is better than Mascherano, the latter has to play in CDM. It's not as if we completely lose control

Thats my point. RM will come at us. We need to neutrlize their pressing and build our way up the pitch. I think we could do that easier with Busi. Ofcourse we can try to use longer passes to our front tridente, but im not sure how that will work.

I doubt Busi will play. Lucho said he's not fully fit yet (to play an intense game like El Clasico at least).

Obviously we shouldnt gamble with his injury if he's not fit. Its a shame though. Makes me a bit doubtful for the game but im not saying we cant win without him. Especially with Messi in this form.

Matic doesn't play in a league that has any decent teams. On top of that he plays in a team that parks the bus. And both of those two goals came from headers btw, not much a solid DM can do to defend that.

He's the best dm in the EPL but I'd say that's as far as it goes.

Yet Chelsea fans agree that Hazard and Matic were more crucial.

Buiscuits has been given the medical green light and is available for the game tonight.

 

[FC B]

Good news.

 

[serghei]

If he has the green light from the doctors, he should play.

 

[hardyboy]

If he has the green light from the doctors, he should play.

but Lucho said he isn't 100% fit. He shouldn't play imo..

 

[DrPepper]

Shit... Watch Mascherano getting exposed at CB once again then.
