  1. I want to see Werner and Kai rip the PL apart! But to have all the guys full of passion,pride and fight will make it all great!
  2. https://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/football/article-8730163/Chelsea-outcast-Danny-Drinkwater-reunite-old-boss-Claudio-Ranieri-Sampdoria.html Chelsea outcast Danny Drinkwater 'could reunite with old boss Claudio Ranieri at Sampdoria in Serie A' in bid to revive his career after string of off-field troubles and failed loan spells
  3. Id like to see us use a high press for more than defence. We have skilled FAST players so quick runs with short fast passes should be 2nd nature. Both Werner and Kai were in high press attacks. Lets hope the idea is to get in score a couple quick so they just throw down tools and concede the game.
  4. Im kinda saying this as a thought out loud but would appreciate someone saying if Im right or talking bollox. Been slowly catching up with things and I dont know if Im right or wrong but its looking to me that FL is using the high press more as a defensive strategy rather than attack based.!? And with is having quite big % of posession we have been making a lot of sideways/back passes?? Add to that we have been creating a lot of chances but nobody has been there good enough for the last 1 or 2 touches?? Our goals for and assists should go much higher now with the new lads. but this very much depends on what formation FL sees us using. I saw a good piece comparing his time at Derby with his time so far here and the comparison was quite similar. They both prioritized going forward and the goals let in were disgustingly bad. I know we brought in another coach but he doesnt SEEM to be defence trained. But we need something drastic to help out back there. Its our only proper weakness. Just read this. Interesting. Tactical Philosophy: Frank Lampard http://outsideoftheboot.com/2020/05/20/tactical-philosophy-frank-lampard/.
  5. COMPLETELY agree! Especially when FL sticks Rudi on outside of a back 3! WTF is he smoking sometime? You telling me he couldnt give him 10 mins in a game here n there? I think FL gets stubborn tho.
  6. Cracked me up the Rudi interview when he tried to take the piss saying Thiago was one of the best for HIS generation! Thiago was SUPPOSED To be back training at the weekend. Also said Ziyech may be out weeks! ‘We hope it’s a matter of weeks, hopefully a couple of weeks, but we will have to see on that one.
  7. For WHATEVER reason tho FL doesnt trust Tomori and seems hes off to Everton.. So IF Thiago is out we are back to our awful CBs so we will be having a open door to teams just throwing goals in. Thats unless Mendy is everything Kepa isn't. But either way we need another TOP CB I want Rice as DM but Id be happy with him best to Thiago
  8. You happy to stay with our CBs if Thiago gets a knock etc? Bens not the strongest defender. I know all our CBs give me palpatations. We need much stronger defence.
  9. It has frustrated me this season how FL hasn't given even a few minutes here n there to certain players. Yet continued playing others even tho they were playing shite. Time will tell wirh RLC. Ive been wanting to be proven wrong about him and will be happy to shout his name if he comes good. CHO is just a big ego and a hormone exploding. Hopefully the contract thing and Bayern will fade and he will get his leg over and he will sort his big and little head out. HOPE they both have a great season.
  10. That was 2 years ago and hes not done nowt since. Some players never recover from injuries like him and CHO got. RLC and Barkley were both being overhyped as usual as the next great England saviours.but both just had a purple patch. Yes RLCs stats were better but they were both pretty similar. We all wanted RLC to be this big strong bulldozer crashing thru parked buses. But hes never taken his opportunities. He would probably do good with a loan - CHO too but RLCs not that youngster any more is he. This season might be important for him, But the time hes going to get will depend on him.
  11. WTF has RLC done? Hes still the same Bambi on ice I last remembered. Only now hes more broken! Barkleys problem is his head! If he doesnt have time to think and goes with his 1st choice hes much better, OF COURSE Id upgrade and sell him/both in a heartbeat. But with the HG rules ............
  12. Can peeps imagine just how much revenue Puli/Werner/Kai/Haverts/Ben/Thiago is going to make for us? Sponsors world wide/advertising millions of shirt sales. Ive always thought that buying a household name big player for loadsa money pays for himself thru things like this.Yes of course they cost a fortune but the benifits far out reach the initial outlay the way I see ir. You would expect there to be an amazing buzz thru the club. And all the lads wanting to play their best to impress them. Well thats how I want it to go in my head! Going to be such a fuckin amazing season/ I really hope Roman gets chance to see us at the Bridge. Sod it I hope we all do!
  13. Oh shit, Then I reckon it will be N'Golo Barkley Mason
  14. Little things like this just make your soul smile! https://www.fourfourtwo.com/features/we-tried-to-get-timo-werner-at-tottenham-former-spurs-scout-has-his-say-on-chelseas-new-signings I tell ya there was this gobby small thieving scouse twat next to me and from last summer on all I got was (In a broad awful scouse twang) 'You's fuckin cockneys think you have all the money. We spending more than you ever will.' And he just ranted on n on about they were buying both Werner and Kai because they were German and where else would be good enough for them! You really cant imagine a more insufferable little cunt! But then come April it was us getting the links he turned around and as per the rest of the dippers said 'We dont need them anyway' Do you know just how much I want them both to score against them?
  15. I hear ya. Was also wondering whether he would start the 2 lads straight in too? Even tho we all want it.
  16. Well does the back 5 really make much difference right now? And IS Puli fit? The rest MAYBE WITH fit Puli Puli Werner Kai Mount Kova Kante not fit Puli Werner Tammy Kai
  17. Woulda been Rays 64th Bday today. Such a shame
  18. am I the only one who thinks Everton are going to be good this season?
  19. I quite detest both North London clubs but right now I far dislike the 3 that beat us in the league more. I was hoping FL would have more time to evaluate all the lads together. I really hated the idea of restarting the league. I wanted to just scrub it and use it all as pre season training. I did think Connor may have been kept on. Shows how wrong I am!
  20. Werner looks Bruv'd up and Kais laughing. Maybe hes as addicted to them as much as I am to Peperami?
  21. Real shame all the lads are not ready to play. THAT day will be exciting too! But just hope Werner and Kai gel well - have lots of pictures like this every week.
