Gerard Deulofeu

[Abraders]

Martinez should be highlighting this fact. Roll out benitez style ''facts'' or whatever. Even other decisions such as janmaat not being booked again. Standard of reffing isn't helping us like. But tends to be the way when you play like a bunch of fools.

agreed.

I personally feel Lukaku needs protection from the referees. He's huge yes, but that doesn't mean somebody smaller than him kicking him in the shins etc isn't a foul!

As if he wasn't great enough already, he probably just made some kids year with this retweet. Top lad

Disgraceful to dive. Its shameful and embarassing...

However i doubt people complain about Neymar doing it every game when Barca are winning leagues, think he just needs to be a bit smarter....

Barcelona have not a leg to stand on when they employ that absolute despicable filth in their team also.

Looked lively today and gave their defence something new to worry about when he came on.

 

[Titus Bramble]

His dipping crosses bouncing across the 6 yard box are so boss. Half an inch from putting one right on Lukaku's head as well. Boss

I know he sprints with the ball, but he needs to improve his fitness in order to last 90 mins.

Especially when we're playing all these games straight after each other.

Looking forward for Deulofeu and Lukaku vs Mangala, Otamendi and Kolarov though

If he doesn't start against City I'll lose any remaining respect I have for our manager.

Don't kid yourself. You don't have any.

 

[Khalekan]

Still think there is more to come from him, but probably one of the best wingers we've had for a while.

Easily the best since Kanchelskis.

Up untill hes been dropped recently i thought his fitness and workrate looked decent.. Too much Christmas food done him in now haha

I'm sure Martinez is tossing and turning in his bed right now with this in mind.

With the amount of moaning and whining you do I'm surprised there's any left.

Strange substitution last night unless Del is even less fit than he looks. He still needs to work on a few things and make sure he's usually on the same wavelength as the players around him but I'd start him whenever we can though because if that side of his game picks up then he's one of the most exciting players I've seen here. Plus he is pressing when not on the ball and our momentum and discipline on the right dipped badly when KM replaced him.
