Lofty Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 You will rarely see a better debut by a player than we have seen from Deco today Sums it up. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ballack & Blu Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Decos debut reminded me of Seeing Juninho for M'boro a little Genius Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dkw Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 deco, magnificent debut. every player impressed, but i though ashley cole and mikel were also superb. cole looked like the player we bought. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bjd Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 deco, magnificent debut. every player impressed, but i though ashley cole and mikel were also superb. cole looked like the player we bought. Deco was brilliant - best debut since, erm Zendens first 45 mins in 2001 If he doesnt get 100% of the voting something is very wrong. In general it was a cracking team performance (though i have to say pompey were awful) great to think we have essien, drogba and maybe robinho to add to the mix too.

Ballack & Blu Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Decos debut was superb,but for a player i thought would struggle into scolaris side,Joey was also Brilliant, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mod Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Deco, use to once hate the fella, now love the guy! Mention to Joe too, had a great game, and also Cech for stopping the very little they gave us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Chelsea Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Deco without a doubt, what a superb debut and a sublime goal just to make sure he got a bottle of plonk from the match sponsors Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wicksy Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 No doubt about it. Has to be DECO. so much for foreigners needing time to adapt to the EPL. He was superb from start to finish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ozboy Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Well I went for Deco, but I probably would have voted for Scolari if it was an option. He has us playing a beautiful game right now. A Cole and Mikel also very strong, great debut by Bossboy, Ballack first class while he was on, Cech solid, J Cole played with purpose and even Anelka almost looked the part. Lampard solid as ever. Ah the close passing and the long passing, what a pleasure, and then Manu only drew. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ethicalstrategy Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Deco for me. Ballack was excellent before he went off. Boswinga and Mikel were very good too. Overall a very enjoyable and encouraging start. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chippy Posted August 17, 2008 Share Posted August 17, 2008 Can't see past Deco myself, good team performance and some pretty football although Portsmouth stood off and looked below par, its hard to tell if thats because we played so well or if they were just poor... Ballack looked very good while he was on and with him and Deco pulling strings its hard to imagine our strikers not scoring for fun. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jimboola69 Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Tempted by so many. Deco of course, lamps was bossing everything, Percy and JT were imperious. But I am going to surprise myself and vote Anelka. His running on and off the ball ran the Pompey defense a right merry dance and that opened space for the likes of Lamps, Deco nd Joe to do their magic. But they were all great! :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BackInBlue Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 What a performance by everyone on the team. However, the debut boy Deco showed why Mourinho wanted him to be his first signing and Phil made him his first signing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
goose Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Like most I went for Deco> I thought Ballack was superb before he had to go off and hope we don't lose him for too many games. Anyone got any word on how serious the injury is? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
andy Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 ;) tough one :D Great start ! Chuffed with Deco and Bosingwa, but for me Lamps controlled that midfield like never before and looked confident just passing making runs, linking play.... hope him and Deco can keep it up.. puts pay to all that crap about Gerrard and Lamps can't play together.. Deco and Lamps can :D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Elliott Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Suprisingly, i went for Deco. Looked like he'd been playing in Blue for years. Notable mentions must also go to both full-backs, Ballack, and Mikel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blizeH Posted August 18, 2008 Share Posted August 18, 2008 Both full backs were amazing, but Deco went one better. Clear winner and rightly so Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
