Clockwork

How could you think the jury is still out? It’s without a doubt Tuchel making all the first team signings , why would we be pushing for a 33 year old washed up striker who Tuchel is very fond of?

It is correct though, he is so average. There is nothing about him that stands out beside his work rate. Best case scenario Willian.

What is wrong with you? Christensen is very talented, he was also very good for Denmark. He is starting Barcelona right now. He is a class above Chalobah. Fofana definitely does not have twice the quality of Christensen, lots of hype for a guy who has not been caped even once for France.

Why would he? We have seen with AC or Rudigar, they might say the right things.

He will play for Inter his contract expires in summer 2023, he would be free to negotiate with a new club like AC and Rudigar.

Thought he had two years his contract was up in 2021? In this situation though, transfer window closes in Couple of weeks. He would be free to negotiate with a new club in January.

How is Inter holding out for 70m when his contract expires next summer.

I have not watched Fofana very closely, but if you think he has best CB in the planet potential than i think you should pay the price and buy him.

City did a good job of recruiting Pep by hiring a bunch of ex Barcelona guys while he was a Bayern. They did a good job of long term planning it. On the other hand we did a terrible job, rehiring Mourniho was a terrible mistake. We wasted a lot of talent under him. I agree with you, Roman definitely had it is positive, but everything was short term. We had our success, but with a clear limitation. I am very hopeful with our new owner, i think if we are going to take the next step it would have to be with a different approach than Roman.

They moved past us because of Pep Guardiola, he is arguably the best manager ever.

I mean we bid for Raphinha, and we didn’t try an alternative.

Better to go after Ronaldo, he is much better.

I wouldn’t call Barca a sinking ship, with the additions they have a squad that can compete with anyone. They will replace FDJ with Bernardo, which is an upgrade.

wouldn’t Cucurella more likely to play CB if Chillwill stay healthy?

Azpi got twisted by Gray, shouldn’t be in a Chelsea uniform never mind starting.

Makes no sense to pay 85m on CB to play in a system that overlay protects them. If Tuchel going to play with 5 defenders and 2 DMs, seems very pointless.

Wonder if we ever went all in on Dembele? It doesn’t seem we were proactive at all when it comes to upgrading our attack. We randomly made a bid for Raphina when he agreed to terms with Barca for a while. Both Lukaku and Werner forced their way out, I think both of them could still be here if they didn’t make a fuss.

FIXED IT

Seriously? 50m for a guy with 5 league goals in Austria?

I seriously miss Sarri, Imagine his football with players we have. People say it is players, but recall how many opportunities Kante and Kovacic/RLC had making runs into the box. Tuchel plays not to lose, even with a striker less Everton he plays with 3 CB. There is just not enough players creating danger.

My idea is for Tuchel to stop bitching about our attack, when he does the same thing again again and again. The CL victory has blinded people from realizing how terrible and disjointed our football has been.

4-3-3 your attackers are higher up the pitch, you also have more bodies in the middle. Forces the opposition much more work to man mark everyone.

Azpi should not be starting, this is my biggest problem with Tuchel he is so inflexible. You have enough players to play a different formation, but you chose a starting XI to include one of the worst players on the squad.

Because he is extremely limited the rare goals do not make up for his limitation. There is a reason Conte tried to replace him immediately, his first year was his best in a Chelsea uniform.
