This round of fixtures could have points at stake for many teams.

 

[Brok]

[Acker79]

11mins in, still 0-0. But I think most of the chat on todays game is gonna be in the Chelsea or Luton thread.

[Football] - Chelsea or Luton?

Sterling looking brilliant again, unfortunately.

 

[Questions]

Chelsea fans are rocking tonight.. 64 people tapped their foot to The Liquidator

 

[timbha]

Not many touches for Moises yet

 

[drew]

No booking for Sterling for standing over the ball. Double standards again.

 

[Pavilionaire]

Great individual goal by Sterling but a pretty ordinary half from the rest of his teamates. Luton look woeful, it could be a sub-20 points season haul if they don't wise up quickly.

Not many touches for Moises yet

Strange to pay £115m for a player who can boss the midfield, then never pass to him.

 

[Justice]

Did we save £40m Colwill looks well shit

 

[Pavilionaire]

Chelsea still look like 11 individuals who have only just met.

 

[The Wizard]

Chelsea ahead but they’ve been absolute wank.

I know it’s very early days but being very good for us doesn’t necessarily convert to being very good for someone else.

RDZ (and Potter) knew where, when and how to play these top players and get the best out of them. Trossard, Calceido, Maupay, Colwill, Bissouma and Cucurella have hardly set the world on fire. Ali Mac and Sanchez have done ok. White has done quite well. I’d argue that only Burn has improved his game.

Could be big fish in small pond syndrome.

Caicedo should have signed for Liverpool, biggest mistake of his career, if he has 2/3 bad games (he’s already half way to that) and the pressure will get a lot, plus how will he truly show his ability if he isn’t allowed to use his biggest strengths, the way Liverpool play would have suited Moises down to a T.
