Better than JT?

It's 90m pounds as far as I know.

I don't consider him world-class, but I think he is excellent, just below world-class. His price should be around 70 million pounds, but in today's striker's market it is what it is. He WILL improve us, not as much as Lewa or possibly Haaland, but he will. I don't think anyone would have something against this happening if the price was lower. But it ain't our money, guys, and we got Kante for 30 millions, Mendy for 20 millions, Azpi for 10 millions, Mount and James for free. Sometimes you overpay, sometimes you underpay. We will overpay for him, but for about 25 millions, not for 50 like we did with Kepa. Also, I get the feeling that WHOLE WORLD is put on strikers' backs, reading this comments. Would he bring us Premier league, would he bring us UCL, would he improve us? I don't remember anyone asking those questions about let's say Kounde, 70 million pounds rated defender that has only one good season under his belt. Or about Kepa, 80 million keeper, when he was getting here. If you ask me - Mount and Havertz will bring us Premier league, and UCL, again. Not Lukaku, they are better players than him. But Lukaku will help THEM massively, and that is what we should think about and forget about his price tag.

Havertz at #9 and Werner a little behind-left, with Mount behind them worked good. I don't know why he changed that for such a big game. Also, Kepa being cup GK is bullshit to me. I don't know if Mendy would have saved that goal, but nevertheless. Totally agree on Alonso. We looked retarded on WB. Tuchel has some questions to answer. It would be crazy to play THAT good against Real/Porto first game/Atletico and then finish season with no trophies and barely getting into top 4 (that's my prediction of how season would end).

Am I the only one confused of why Ziyech played from start? I am questioning choice of playing Kepa and Alonso too. Also, Azpi on RWB against clearly inferior team? I get that he wanted James to cover fast player in Vardy, but Azpi did fuck all in attack. Questioning Tuchel tbh. And Jorginho, my word, he was awful. Not just this game, he is awful for at least a month. So much wrong passes and lost possession. But I get it, we have no back up for him, Kova is not ready yet.

We are nothing without Kovačić - Jorginho midfield. Kante spent too much time on the ball, it's like Leeds were content with him trying fuck all with it.

I think our Saints setup was first of all too defensive. After that there were some players that were clearly awful and should've gone out before 65'. I can't understand leaving Alonso on the pitch. CHO was not so good, but if he maybe tried him at LWB it would give him needed kick and more space to get in the game. Also, switching to 4-2-3-1 would not be crazy too - bring Chilly for Alonso and bring Ziyech (on right wing) for James/Azpi, switch CHO to left wing. Alonso was just plain terrible. Zouma would be better in 4-2-3-1 too, and with Kante in the team, why not? If he decided to stay with 3-4-3, why not Jorginho instead of Kante at 60'? I mean, Kova wasn't at his best, but if you pair him with J5, that could be completely different story.

In 3-4-3 from front 3 only Mount shows promise, all others are not good enough. Especially Pulisic, Ziyech and Havertz; Werner and Abraham have a good game sometimes. We will still be dependent on our midfield masterclass from Kova and even Jorginho.

I'm pretty sure it's 3-4-3 with Emerson as LB, Alonso LWB. Hope it's 4-2-3-1 with Emerson on right, but I doubt it.

Great job guys! It looks great. I also really like that tab Activity works properly now (before it only showed first page, could not load more).

Ugly ugly win and very careful approach by Tuchel. I'll take it of course, but hoping to see more attacking players involved. I miss Ziyech and Pulisic. Really hope Kante can up his game and when Silva returns to maybe switch to 4-2-3-1...

Problem for me is not Chelsea not winning the title this season, I never expected that. But Spurs being first brings whole new dimension for me, for fucks sake, just can't stand that shit.

Has shit options on the bench tbh. Poslano sa mog Redmi Note 8 Pro koristeći Tapatalk

It's time for Kai to step up. He wasted some good chances. Poslano sa mog Redmi Note 8 Pro koristeći Tapatalk

Mourinho saying they are not happy with a point, but setting whole tactic way too secure and defensive - exactly what usually leads to 0-0 games. Yeah... and I'm not happy because I am getting wet, who cares that I am jumping in the puddle.
