yeah, but Torres is in quite a form at the moment. Silly move but paid off...


Can't call it a silly move when he scored a hat-trick... would Torres have scored a hat-trick? No, so it was a great decision

Hence why I said it paid off. But it was pretty risky to start Eto'o instead of Torres but I have seen that Torres has been injured. When did he get injured? 0.o

Ok, thanks. I will see what he has done. Do you think Eto'o is better than Torres in the form they are at the moment or are which one is the overall better player? My opinion is Eto'o but Torres has been playing good recently, for a change...

Mourinho said "Torres out for weeks. Time for Demba".
Despite many not liking him, that is good in my eyes, Ba is a good striker, he just hasn't played much, the games he has played, he has made an impact and scored in. I hope him and Eto'o will score more.


Ba doesn't suit our style. He's a stoke type striker.
never in my life did i think i would see somebody say he's a stoke type striker


It's true though. ;)

He would fit in with their hoof ball style.

Before yesterday of course I would have said Torres on form, but now with Torres injured for a few weeks, it will give Eto'o and Ba a chance to fight for their place

I agree with what Mourinho said about Torres playing better in open space and Eto'o playing good in confined areas.

I was unsure about starting Eto'o aswell with Torres scoring in his last 2 games but you've gotta hand it to Eto'o 4 goals in 2 games against Liverpool and Utd, not too bad,

Now hopefully Ba can step up to the mark, I still believe he has a lot to offer.

Has anybody seen the guy 'Jerome Champagne', he's running to be FIFA president but his criteria is awful in my opinion.

He wants to introduce:
-Orange Cards, Players get sin binned for upto 5 Mins
-The ball moving forward from free-kicks(10 yards) if the referee receives any sort of dissent.

I can't see any of that working but he is calling for a more democratic FIFA, which is respected and isn't as scandalous as it currently stands.

He also wants live tv debates between the leaders of the 6 major leagues to help improve the game and protect referees. I like the idea of that tbh.

Looks like some good ideas and some one's that wouldn't work.

Sin bins work in some sports, but wouldn't in football it's as simple as that.
Yellow cards work fine for dissent, doesn't need to be changed either.

At least someone is challenging that idiot bigot Blatter, it's about time he was gone from the top. Here's hoping we'll be celebrating with Champagne come the elections. See what I did there?
