Mandem, I played goalie today at the campus field, ohhhh myyy dayzzz it was one of the most nerve wracking experiences. In high school I was prepared to square up with this 6'10 white guy like but playing goalie though?

Every counter attack
The ball is played on the wing and I'm looking back at the posts to check my positioning
Corner kick, ball is in the air
Through ball to a striker, do I come out all the way and go for broke or come out halfway and make myself big and hope he bottles it under pressure
Pass the ball to the fullback, I'm saying "please don't pass it back please don't pass it back"
Long range shots I'm like "I should save this" but it made me even more nervous cuz it would look bad if I let it in

I'm a p*ssyhole

Not seeing any major honours won for Arsenal on that list, all of the top 19 with the exception of Arsenal and Bayer Leverkusen has won at least 1 trophy in the last 5 years, the pre-season emirates cup not withstanding .

What should you grab you more is we did that winning nothing.


Imagine when Ramadan leads us to the league this year

Jose absolutely killing Mata

"But he played against Everton from the beginning and you can analyse his performance.

"And he played against Basle, not like (Demba) Ba or (John Obi) Mikel, coming in to rescue the game, but he came on when the team was winning 1-0 and when he had specific tasks to do.

"It's part of a process with him. One thing is to play with Ramires and Oscar in the side, them closing (down) each side, and Mata as a number 10 behind a striker, to have clever assists and to have clever passes; fantastic actions because he has great talent."

"In this moment, Oscar is my No. 10 and, if somebody tells me that Oscar is not Chelsea’s best player since the beginning of the season, I’d have to disagree. These are football issues.”

When asked whether Mata must dislodge Brazil international Oscar at present, Mourinho said: “Yes.”

He added: “They can [play together], when he adapts to it. But I’m not ready to play Oscar following full-backs, because he plays in that position for the country with more talented players than anyone else in the world in that position. I want to build with Oscar as my No. 10. I want the other two players, from the side, to adapt to that reality and learn now to do things that they were not ready to do before.”

It makes sense tbh. Mata is a luxury player - albeit a supremely gifted one that can decide games - and that won't fly with Jose. I agree with him that it's one thing letting other people do all the leg-work (Ramires/Oscar shutting down fullbacks) and just making passes in the final third, but that it's another thing being an active participant in all areas of the game and still doing the business in terms of goals/assists .

Mata is a goner next summer imo.
