It's amazing how good a club that is heavily invested on can look when they don't have European football. We won the title in 2017 because of that.

We'll be fine. Arsenal will likely pip 4th by the way things are looking.

They have Liverpool, United, and Spurs yet to play.

Can someone educate me on this? If we knew Putin/Russia would react this way by having NATO in Ukraine, why did they proceed on doing so?

Nothing has been proven though? There was suspicion/links that Roman was using political influence, and he received the necessary punishment of being barred from the UK until further notice. Now they want to seize his assets when they still haven’t proven anything, such as direct links to Putin? Cries of desperation really.

Wasn't just Chilwell's injury. Shoehorning Lukaku after the Juventus game was the nail in the coffin. Had Chilwell and James been fine, along with Tuchel using Lukaku sparingly, I think we'd still be roughly 5-7 points adrift, but the G/D would be far, far better.

We win our game in hand its only 7 points tbf, which is impressive considering the circumstances. We saw how Liverpool utterly collapsed when VVD and Gomez were out for the season. Think if we finish off the season still in that range it can be something to hopefully build on. Or we just take further steps backwards and make a team around Lukaku.

Just relegate the cunts. They show up twice a season only and both times against us.

Pulisic has to start. If Tuchel has to shoehorn Lukaku, fine, but please put Pulisic on TAA. Alonso to provide the width on the left. Hopefully Rudiger has his batman mask ready for Sunday. Need another CL final display.

He's tied up for 5 years with Saints so they won't sell. His buy back for 35 million is activated in summer 2023.

I'm not so sure. Lukaku would thrive in the Bundesliga given how that league is mostly about direct/counter attacking football. Add the fact Bayern build their team around the CF, I can see the possibility of Bayern being interested. Only issue is that it will be a massive step down given aside the goals, Lewa is a fantastic "footballer" whereas Lukaku isn't.

Mental no clubs were in for him. Think it was between us and Atalanta I think?

Think Barca's terms are too attractive. 2 years with option to extend. Think now is the best time to cut ties with Azpilicueta personally. Great man but the gulf in quality compared to him in James is massive. Kounde would probably offer a lot more at RCB and RWB given his ability on the ball. Then we can activate Livramento's buy back in 2023 if he's good enough.

You just know, and I mean know, that this great performance will be rewarded with a start at LW on Sunday. 🙈

Could of sworn we made a change in the second half to accommodate Alonso getting rinsed by Salah and reverted to a back 4.

Did we not play a back 4 during our 2-2 draw?

Not sure CHO at LWB is a smart idea.

Think it will be a 4141 variation like we saw at Palace. Lukaku gets shoe horned back in then it isn't any surprise why no front three can perform consistently when they are stripped of game time and momentum. A theme under Tuchel.

Mendy Azpilicueta Silva Rudiger Sarr Jorginho Kante Ziyech Pulisic Mount Havertz

Kai Havertz in numbers 91% pass accuracy 23 touches 5 touches in opp. box 3 shots 2 shots on target 1 goal.

The amount of individual errors were appalling. The sole reason we allowed Lille back in it. Tuchel should be screaming at them at half.

Rumors Lukaku is dropped.

Lukaku's 7 touches against Palace. I think what's equally amazing, is the amount of areal duels he lost...

You're such a troll.
