Hi Eds and Reds. can anyone shed some light on how Juanma is doing in our academy. Not seen a lot of him but remember reading he has a lot of potential. Where is he at in respect if breaking through into the first Team. Any feedback would be great. Thanks.

{Ed001's Note - he was making progress, Michael Beale talked of him as a potential left back for next season, but, since then, he has suffered injury and played centre back for the U23s. Not so sure what the plan is for him now.}

Hi eds and reds. Just a question.
I know luiz's free kick was good. But as Chelsea opted not to take a quick free kick. They had to wait for the ref to blow whistle to take it. Then should the ref not at least wait till our team was ready. Rather than blow the whistle while mignolet was still on the post setting the wall.

Craig red

{Ed001's Note - no, it is up to Mignolet to get himself ready quickly, as it is the ref's discretion when he blows it. That is why you often see another player take charge of setting the wall, so the keeper can just focus on getting ready.}

Cheers ed001. Thanks for the reply. Just another mistake again. Don't know how many points we will loose this season from stupid mistakes. Still hope for a top 4 finish, as was my hope at the start of the season.

{Ed001's Note - it happens mate. You just have to hope the players learn from it and organise themselves more quickly in future.}

He made that pen save that's good enough for me but yeah he should have been far more alert when it came to that free kick, it is what it is, what's done is done, we've seen Mignolet like this for far too long.

Harsh on Migs. That was a great free kick even if Migs had been ready. No doubt Migs should have been watching the ball, but it was a well worked, well placed free kick

For the last however many years our best laid plans have constantly been destroyed by brain explosions, lapses in concentration etc etc

{Ed001's Note - that is down to poor recruitment. We are not looking for those kind of things when we choose players to sign.}

Last night was another prime example of that Faithinworks, I don't think Chelsea played that well but got chances due to our mistakes.
1st goal was a silly challenge from Lallana, I know he didn't touch Hazard but he gave Hazard an opportunity to go down which he took, then Mignolet not ready for the free-kick (but in all honesty I don't think he'd have saved it even if ready) .
Their penalty, why didn't Lovren just stand Costa up, absolutely no need to try and knick the ball.
And there were also a few times Mignolet put the defenders under immense pressure but passing the ball short when they were already under pressure.

We make things so difficult for ourselves it unbelievable!
It would be interesting to see how many goals we've conceded this season due to mistakes by our own players? I know every team makes mistakes and it's unrealistic to expect a team not to make mistakes but I bet we are one of the highest in the Prem for making costly mistakes and have been for some time.

I know it was a good free kick but would Luiz have attempted it if he hadnt noticed migs completely unprepared?


7.) 01 Feb 2017 12:30:34
When the free kick was taken he wasn't even looking at the wall he was looking at the group of defenders on his left. Stupid really.


8.) 01 Feb 2017 13:00:45
Good question Mikey, hard to second guess a mind like David Luiz 🤡


9.) 01 Feb 2017 13:53:33
I don't think if the wall was set, he would have scored cos Migs would have had time to anticipate it as he would have shuffled over to where the wall was, which most GKs do.

As for taking it early, it is basic football that on a free kick, a player must always take responsibility and stand over the ball to prevent it from being taken quickly. No one did that as their backs were turned when the whistle even went. This is a learning experience for the team cos that was a cardinal sin in football.


As for Lovren, he is an accident waiting to happen. Why he tried to win the ball vs Costa in the center circle, I have no idea. He allowed Costa to roll him and have a free run at Matip, hanging him out to dry. he also made a silly pass to milner which set Pedro free until Hendo ran him down and stopped a clear goal. This is why he can't be the long term solution at CB.

Whether Mignolet was prepared or not, he wasn't saving that shot.


11.) 01 Feb 2017 16:30:59
Luiz is a free kick specialist. He's scored many goals like that. Excuses are excuses. We've missed a leader for so long. Hendo was fantastic last night but he's not a natural leader. There's nobody like Carragher or Gerrard, nobody to force a foothold in a game. That's our biggest miss for me.

Was just wondering on ed001 view on mignolet, still don't think he is good enough but see people saying he is improving

{Ed001's Note - he is improving. However he is starting off from a level right at the bottom of professional, so it is not that difficult to improve! We still need better than him, which is hopefully Karius.}

Hi eds. Was wondering that if we get a large sum upfront for Suarez. Could this be used for the money Seville was asking upfront for a deal with Moreno? Would we still be interested in getting him. In my opinion he I still the best left back that we have had any serious link with.
Thanks Craig

{Ed001's Note - no idea sorry.}
