Hazard is quality.
Premier League Matchweek 10
- Thread starter the hea
- Start date
-
In the latest episode of the United Hour Podcast, Nik @Rood and Imran @Annihilate Now! start with the good news by celebrating Manchester United Women's emphatic FA Cup win over Spurs at Wembley and the future of manager Marc Skinner.
Then it's the bad news and the ever worsening form of our Men with losses to Arsenal and Palace.
Finally the main debate - ETH Out now or keep him until the end of the season - if not longer. Are you Team Nik or Team Imran?
Love Hazard. Not very good defending by Southampton, though.
0-1 Hazard
Conte has completely transformed Chelsea with switch to this 343, earlier they looked like they'll struggle and now they look like genuine contenders. 1pt off top if score stays same.
Not looking good for us either, another week where we drop points while top 4 all win. 7pts behind them with 10 games gone.

Chelsea and City are my preferences to win the title if Arsenal and Liverpool are still in the race come March.
I think Chelsea have settled now and their quality is beginning to shine through. Not sure if they're title contenders just yet, but definitely top 4.
It's really insane how defensive Chelsea are. Even when they scored 4 vs us, they were so effing defensive.
We're not defensive, Southampton are just having an excellent spell of pressure.
Chelsea scored with the only chance/half chance they had.
We had the only home game and probably the easiest fixture on paper compared to our rivals and we have fallen further behind
It's annoying that next week is the North London derby, so someone is going to drop points and we have dropped points in two games we absolutely dominated. One down to not scoring enough and bad defending at the end and one again down to not scoring. That is down to the players.
Yep Jose totally got it right both games. Hasn't put a foot wrong....It was done to death yesterday.
Obviously manager takes responsibility for results and how the players play
But right now I'm caring about the away trip to Swansea. I see it has almost a must win. And they will be very hard to break down
My Chelsea-are-pretty-shit prediction of a month ago or so is looking solid as feck right now.
Well it's only half time
But I was pretty sure this would be a bad day for Chelsea. But now I'm not sure I can see Southampton equalising
I'm fairly sure that Chicago Town Pizza ad gave John Lennon bullet cancer.
Saints have been shit going forward.
Gorgeous ball in by Alonso.
And then makes a total arse of the next one.. 
Stunning from Costa!!!
feck off
Good goal.
Wtf is Martina doing there? Pathetic defending.
Diegolazo.
Just let him shoot?
Why can't any of our players do that 
Costa is the best number 9 in the league I'd kill for a striker like him at united

If it's any consolation, it's just karma paying us back for Torres.Why can't any of our players do that

The way the other teams fighting for top 4 are playing atm 
Chelsea look so good right now. The 343 fits them like a glove, it'll be interesting to see how long this run will go on for.
Chelsea had 3 chances all game - outcome 2 goals. Moral? We can't carry Ibra. It's better if we have less chances (which I doubt, mind) upfront with either of Martial or Rashford, but you can usually rely on them to finish those. They both are cool as feck when it comes to it.
0-2 Costa
When you see how little some teams create then you have to wonder where we would be with some clinical striker up front. Fecking hell.
Yeah I suppose, I have to ask did mourinho really ruin hazard last season or have a big fall out with him because he looks like a completely different player under conte.If it's any consolation, it's just karma paying us back for Torres.
Wasteful!
Oh how was that not 3... Learn to back heel Diego!!
On a weekend with Giroud, Sanchez, Aguero, Costa, Hazard and others scoring it does slightly annoy you doesn't it
Goodness knows. It was utterly bizarre, considering they supposedly had a great relationship.
Willian on for Pedro please.
Pedro is far from the player he was at Barca.
This have been an absolute crap weekend yet again. We are getting into deep trouble now as we are 8 points behind to 3 teams and 7 points behind to Chelsea after today. We are at a point were 1 more slip up and top 4 is gone as i don´t think this team can catch up that huge a lead from 4+ clubs. We need the players to play out of their skin every game from now to have a chance to turn this around.
I know it's slightly off topic, but for the person who haven't followed Ibra that much during his career and only saw the odd CL games with him, it seems to me that he folds under pressure. Last year City game comes to my mind.. missed 1x1 and penalty in a home game..Also, if my memory is not failing me, I think he was anonymous in our encounter against Inter in play offs when Mourinho was managing them. In addition, Inter won a treble the year he left and more clinical and dynamic forward in Eto'o joined them instead. Look, he's obviously a class player but it seems to me that he's more fragile mentally than he sells himself to everyone.On a weekend with Giroud, Sanchez, Aguero, Costa, Hazard and others scoring it does slightly annoy you doesn't it
