UEFA Champions League/Europa League 23/24/25 October *** Spoilers ***

[Shamikebab]

Apart from the fact that this is the formation that we've arguably played the most fluid football in this season, OK.....

I'm out of this thread, people have seriously lost it

I didn't say it wasn't fluid, I said we always have someone playing away from their best position. Kagawa just doesn't look like a great central midfielder, he wants to be behind the striker.

 

[Shamikebab]

I think it suits kagawa. He just should be played were Rooney is.


And kagawa was onside :/

Yeah I think that's the best option, with Rooney and Rvp ahead of him, not sure why we haven't really tried that. Anderson, cleverley and fletcher would have been a better all round 3.

 

[G-MAN2004]

The three teams I bet on to win... are losing. Chelsea, Utd and Barca - what is going on?

 

[Cosimo]

Two saves from Cech now.

 

[Abooie]

I love the fact we've spent a fortune on wide players, Kagawa, Nani, Young, Valencia, even Giggs and we not only don't play wide these days but when we do we always stick Rooney or Welbeck out there.

 

[Mr-White]

Cech keeping the score to just 1-0 and how the hell are Celtic winning ?

MW

Kagawa isn't really a wide player and giggs certainly isn't any more. Nani is this seasons berbatov, wouldn't be surprised if he left.

Just did an in play bet for them to win - 20/1. Hoping for a winning half time speech from each of the managers.

 

[el_dazza]

1-1 Barca

 

[Dimi]

WOW, fantastic goal by Iniesta

 

[Shamikebab]

That was a nice turn by Chicho, he looks much sharper tonight

Kagawa ain't really a wide player. Nani young valencia were bought yonks ago. You make it sound like they were bought in the summer. We changed formation only a few matches ago...

 

[nemtizz]

Ridiculous goal.

 

[Azza]

Insane, Iniesta goal 1-1.


How's it even possible to make those types of passes?!

 

[dante6491]

Braga beat Arsenal a couple years back I think? Cracking stadium they have too. Somewhere I would really like to visit.

 

[Cosimo]

HT: Shakhtar 1-0.

 

[SideWinder]

The camera couldn't keep up...

 

[Azza]

A one-two inside the box, through 5, maybe 6 Celtic players as well.

 

[Shamikebab]

This formation is easily exploitable by a team with good wide players, it puts such pressure on the full backs to be add width to the attack and defend against breaks with minimal assistance.

 

[Tom84]

Our defence makes me sad, as done Kagawa's first touch

Kagawa off Anderson on at the start of the second half please. Impressed with Hernandez, whilst the link up between Rooney & RVP is still showing promising signs it's actually Hernandez who's looked most likely to actually score.
