Playing and training alongside Ash Cole for long enough will do that to a player :coffee:

The problem has been that he can put in a performance like that, then go months before another one anywhere close to it. If he can play like that consistently, he'd be one of the first names on Jose's teamsheet.

What I am saying is, Jose loves players who can play tactically, Luiz and all of Brazil, for that matter, played very well tactically. I don't see why he wouldn't be a starter when he just proved on one of the biggest stages of world football that he can. I also have the utmost faith he will keep it up.

I cannot be a spain fan, they are way to boring to watch. I was so happy when DL4 made that clearance, you saw the hearts of every Spain fan sink in that moment.

Yep, as I said, Ash Cole :bow:

First thought that came to my mind the second that happened :bow:

Ash Cole the king of goal-line clearances :bow:

Now beginning to rub off on Luiz :bow:

Brilliant picture!

by lszanto Mon Jul 01, 2013 1:09 pm

Far out he was brilliant today, just shows how good he is when he keeps a level head. He's only going to get better under Mourinho :bow:

by Kick Mon Jul 01, 2013 2:51 pm

Exactly my thoughts lszanto!

Has anybody else noticed how two footed he is aswell? I know he scored that long bomb on his left but he was passing alot on his left yesterday and it's impressive how equally he can use his feet for a CB. I'd expect that from attackers like Hazard but it's cool to see from a defender.

by Kick Tue Jul 02, 2013 1:13 am

It is certainly a helpful trait, he is probably more two footed than JT.

He was hitting passes across the pitch yesterday with pretty much perfect precision on both feet, makes baby face look bad :bow:

JT is more like right foot and head...

He has always had a knack for playmaking when he is on form.

Chelsea adamant David Luiz transfer to Barcelona simply isn't going to happen:

He's expressed his anger to the media twice about the fact that he's not interested yet they persist. For a top club they are woeful with transfers, why they didn't sign Vertonghen last season is beyond me.

by Shed Wed Aug 07, 2013 2:02 pm

I don't recall him ever expressing anger over speculation and saying he's not interested in a possible move. In fact, I think it's been just the opposite, from my recollection.
