Negredo

[EricBrooksGhost]

I'm struggling to think of anything he did today that was out of the ordinary.

Do you have an identical twin called Bernabia?

Was a personnel issue IMO
Silva came off for nasri who just doesn't move the ball quick enough.
First half we moved quickly down the pitch, with negredo running in behind and into the channels. There was no room for him second half as our build up play allowed Sunderland to get more men behind the ball meaning they defended deeper, ultimately reducing the space in behind.

The passing between nasri and Clichy pisses me off no end. When we're in advanced positions and neither look to put a ball in, it always ends up back in defence.

On the money. As soon as silva went off our fluency vanished. As is always the case.

The thing is Nasri has the skill, just not the mentality, for want of a better phrase.

fluency was back with the introduction of navas and fernandinho...

Well that was spot-on, wasn't it?

That article was dated 15th July; it's now 27th and Alfie completed his transfer on 19/7.

So someone was telling porkies!

A lot has been said about signing players approaching their late 20s but we're getting Negredo, Fernandinho and Navas at the peak of their powers, and Negredo is a very smart striker which you could see from his intelligent runs today. He will miss chances though, his conversion rate is similar (slightly better in the last two seasons) to Dzeko's. Aguero, Negredo, Silva and Navas in the same team could be really something.

I'm going to sound like a glory hunting Johnny come lately **** but in my defence I've had 14 can of Budweiser and 2 vodka and coke's, whos the bloke beside Navas and Negredo?

Let's judge our new signings on decent pitches shall we?. Anybody
could be forgiven for not playing their best on that quagmire of
a pitch today.
