He has been playing well and helping the team for some time, but as a striker if you don't put in the goals in the league, critics will capitalise on that. Journos are good at cherry picking: ignore goals in Europe regardless of importance and quality of the opposition, talk in terms of goals/month when he has been injured or suspended, count games when he played few minutes or in the wing, etc. Thankfully Mourinho has a strong personality and doesn't let journos make decisions for him or influence him. He seems to have gained some pace and acceleration in comparison to his first season. He can actually beat defenders again. The team overall looks better physically, Terry especially.

A bargain compared to housing I'm afraid.

1- Kaka has been long past his best 2- Have a word with yourself

I almost feel sorry for the pundits, they are having such a hard time.

Well they paid £35M for Carroll. We should be asking for £50M+.

Kaka for Madrid has to be the very worst. 35M for Carroll deserves mention as well.

Can't see how Ivanovic didn't make it to TOTW. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/24693512

He had a poor game in all honesty. Zabaleta falling on his backside was fun to watch though.

Lack of confidence. Hopefully he will be using it more this season.

Nailed it.

Hazard was really poor and Oscar wasn't exactly great either. Mata should have played IMO. Anyway, well chuffed for the win and for Torres. He's playing like a star.

Well done lad, great game and massive goal.
