!Hazard!

Oooh damn Jorgi that was close

Time for Hudson-Odoi and Kovacic in the second half

Not offside? Golaaaaazooooo

Zouma-Tomori has to be the fastest CB pairing in club history

3-4-3 It is

I'm suspecting it's 3-4-3 with Alonso and James as wingbacks. Oh boy, I got a good feeling James will score or/and assist tonight Pulisic should really be getting some game time tho...And I don't wanna see Mount get overplayed either

What a decline. Still during the World Cup he was amazing but for the past 14 months he has looked like drunk Ross Turnbull

Hopefully he just keeps working hard and waiting for his chance like Loftus-Cheek did last season. He needs to improve his shooting and physique among others quite a bit. Might take him a full season to get used to the physical requirements of the league

He was definitely playing more restricted role under Sarri, I think Sarri was trying to protect him by not allowing to him move around as much and thus keep midfield defensively in balance. He has also improved quite a bit, especially physically. Just shows that players coming from other leagues need their time to adapt to the requirements of Premier League.

That's an understatement. Haven't seen him perform this badly since 2015-2016 season

Fuck me KDB has 2 goals 9 assists in 7 games in the league this season. Best player in the league by some distance atm

He should be rested until the end of next international break

I could see him wearing the armband when Azpi gets dropped

All those games he has played in last years have finally caught up with him. He looks miles off the pace

A more experienced striker than Tammy would have dragged it around the keeper and put it in the net

This rotating PK taker thing is interesting. I mean if we ever wanna win anything then we need at least 5 confident PK takers. Maybe this way we can keep them all ready for a shootout? I'd prefer it the traditional way though. Jorginho is our best PK taker and should take them regularly

YAhaaa

CHO/Pulisic and Kovacic in for Willian and Barkley plz

Jorginho has been brilliant. He's so much more complete player now than he was 12 months ago

Alonso has been great today. Expect him to finish that tho

Barkley needs to get more power in that shot

Gotta put Kovacic in there Good positioning from Kepa in that previous attack. Quite a few PL keepers would have fucked it up

It can't come as a surprise at this point

Love how we start every game with immense intensity

Is it just me or are we playing Saturday 3pm quite a few times this season? The TV contract thing about this timeslot sucks ass and once again the broadcaster is not showing Chelsea game. @Vesper save us!
