He was injured in the last match....

 

You wish haha

No, I'm stating a fact.

You wish haha

He is injured, it's not a joke

The set pieces thing is a cop out, he plays every week and we're still dog sh*t from set pieces.

Apparently out for 3 weeks with a hamstring injury.

This will be very interesting!

While I hope that he recovers from his injury soon, this could be a turning point in our season.

Starting to lose count on the number of turning points we've had so far this season 

The set pieces thing is a cop out, he plays every week and we're still dog sh*t from set pieces.

And most of them comes from not having a man on the post or Ivanovic losing his marking. The excuses really need to stop, its almost getting worse then Rodgers trying to defend why he kept picking Lovren

Matt Law seems to think José will deploy Zouma as a replacement full-back in view of Ivanovic's injury. Whether on the left or right he doesn't seem sure, not is it clear whether he's just piecing that together from the previous statements José made about needing height in the team and Rahman not being ready for the Premier League yet.

At least we know Happy can tackle and has good pace... but how bad can Baba really be? Why did we sign him!? 

out for at least 3 weeks 

 

conveniently takes him out of the media firing line and lets Jose save face

Wouldn't be surprised but I hope not, he's worse than Ivan at RB. 

Don't buy the height from set peices thing, we could adapt that by putting someone on the post for once.

The height thing is bullsh*t, were sh*te at attacking AND defending set pieces even with big players in the team. We spend about 20mil on a left back and apparently he isn't ready? Bollocks, if Zouma plays at full back over Rahman it's ridiculous.

A shocking reason for Jose not to play Baba Rahman. We just destroying one of the best potential LB's in the world.

Sorry what?

Sorry what?

 

His height isn't a problem. 80 percents of the LB's are short. The player has a potential and talented, of course we didn't see enough to say that officially but his stats in Augsburg were fantastic and he need to show this form in the PL somehow. I know that Jose knows exactly when to give a playing time to a player, but now when Ivanovic is injured, and we finally have a spot for him, we should give him. 

 

I do believe that he is going to be one of the best in the future, we just need to give him a chance to get in form and to show what he got. I don't know if he was Jose's buy, but we bought a good player and in current situation I think he has to play.

Jose is just making trouble for himself if he does. Almost like he is daring Roman to sack him.

Zouma is a damn good defender. Him playing right back is not a poor decision.

Yes it is.

If Zouma plays RB over Baba against f**king Aston Villa at home José has either completely lost the plot or someone should get fired, because it means we spent 20 million on a completely worthless player if he is that poor in training

If Zouma plays at right back, it proves the point we knew already - Baba was not a Jose signing, and Jose will fight tooth and nails to refuse play players he didn't sign. I hope I'm wrong on this

He's played right back for us before and wasn't very good, I would say it's a poor decision. Especially when we already have a proper fullback waiting to play.

i havent been impressed by rahman yet. im sure he will develop, but he's looked defensively vulnerable as far as im concerned. id prefer a player who has shown he can defend well in the premier league to an unproven prospect, especially given our form this year
