Im absolutely giddy about the prospects of Long, Mac, Coleman, Meyler, etc being in their prime at the same time..... also seems like Martinez is trying to mend fences a bit.
Wonder where James wants to play if he leaves...

Anonymous in the first half apart from one sloppy pass in his own half which almost lead directly to a goal. Same in the second and again a slip and then hurried pass in an advanced position leads to a one on one for Darren Bent that Al Habsi does well to save.
Agreed, utterly anonymous today. Very disappointing from him

Certainly had a poor game today. On the subject of a possible move to a bigger club Liverpool would be such a better move than Chelsea. Daglish plays young players regularly like Flanagan and Robinson while I think at Chelsea, McCarthy would not be given such opportunites, but might just make the bench.
I only saw MOTD highlights, but that was my verdict too - though I think it might have been he who won the ball well to start the move that led to Wigan's goal. Not sure about that.Quote:

In relation to a potential move, I'm sure he'll pick the right option. He has managed his career very well to date, choosing development over prestige. I can't see him wasting his time at Chelsea at this crucial point, I hope not anyway.Quote:

Its been nearly 2 weeks and no post in this thread. Whats going on?!?
James taken off at half time yday. Seems to have put in a few poor performances lately, wonder if the the long season has taken its toll.
Watched the first half yesterday. He made a couple of strong purposeful runs with the ball but other than that didn't really contribute. He had two wayward passes and seemed a bit disinterested at times yesterday. 2-0 down at half time, Martinez was always going to bring on a second striker (Sammon) with McCarthy being sacrificed. Watson was left in to anchor midfield. He looks increasingly lethargic and needs a good break this summer. It will be interesting to see if he starts against Stoke next wkend
He missed half of it! He's probably more worn out from fielding enquiries from sensationalist Irish journalists.Quote:
