Bart who passed the ball to Solanke last week so he could kick it into an empty net? You do realise that many of our amazing victories have been because of Steele’s incredible ability with the ball at his feet?
Our midfield vs theirs was men vs boys and a horrible game to blood Jack. Welbeck at CAM needs to stop, and Gilmour needs more than a zero experience Hinshelwood alongside him to compete in a game like that. Just watched the highlights and Gilmour gave away the ball at key moments for several...
Singling out Steele when he was behind that utter car crash of a midfield and defence shows that some people have zero understanding of football. Pervis looked like he won a competition to play in a prem football match, the centre backs left Watkins constantly unmarked, and the central and wide...
Thought he looked decent at Right Back in the US. Played pretty safe last night like you said but it is going to take anyone his age plenty of time to adapt to big boys football, especially at our level.
To be hired by Real you either have to have won a lot of silverware or be a club legend. No chance they go for De Zerbi yet, they don’t invest in managers with potential.
Got the sense at the game that RDZ just wasn’t that fussed about going out tonight. Didn’t throw Adingra in and let Facundo play far far longer than justified,
he needs some serious gym work and plenty of minutes playing European men’s football on loan away from the spotlight. Really bad decision to keep him here this season.
Thought Mitoma had Cucu on toast and even Joao caused him all sorts of problems. Didn’t notice Caceido on the pitch, and Sanchez was dreadful. What a shame we didn’t score from his mistake.
Positives: JPVH, Pedro, Tariq, Karou, Pervis, and Karou roasting Cucutwatface.
Negatives: Thought Baleba looked a few games from being ready, gave it away a lot. Dahoud also looked lazy and wasteful until Billy came on. Buonnanote I have defended a lot but tonight showed he is a long way from...
Anyone who thinks Bloom would have fired Bruno is living in cloud cuckoo land. Firstly we have a well publicised and proven policy of promoting and developing from within. Secondly the guy had legend status. Thirdly RDZ would have wanted someone with a great knowledge of the club and players on...
It wasn’t a weak team though. It was last seasons defence, Ferguson up front with Welbeck CAM, with MOTM Gilmour and an impressive Adingra in midfield.
Let’s be honest even a weaker side for Chelsea won’t be that weak and likely to contain Baleba, Fati, and March or Adingra. Nine changes yesterday showed how strong the squad is now. The challenge is getting all the newer players understanding what they need to do. Will be Interesting to see...
