Split said:If Flamini is not available I'd definitely go for Cesc, if he can play like that against Manure why the hell can't he do it again against the sorry toffees?
Because Manure wasn't really trying on Sunday. I don't understand why everybody is acting like the Community Shield was a real game. It wasn't. Don't get me wrong, I still loved seeing Manure getting their heads kicked in, but it was obvious to even the most casual observer that it was essentially a scrimmage. There was no intensity, Keane and Scholes were barely trying, and the defense was a joke.
Cesc played a fine game, but in the big scheme of things I really don't think it means anything. Personally he looked lightweight to me and I doubt his ability to perform in a competitive match. He might have it, but Sunday's game certainly doesn't prove it.
Sorry Split, I don't mean to go off on you, I'm just tired of all the Cesc-mania around here.
