He's a bit like Saka at Arsenal. Can play as a full back, but his strengths scream as a winger.

In a heartbeat.

We won 4-2 last season with Mount and Tammy in. A risk in resting Werner and Havertz. However keeping them on the bench just in case wouldn't hurt.

Please, Please, Please let this be a reality check for him. STICK WITH WHAT"S WORKED. 433 with quick transition football. Only after lock down with his constant chopping and changing we have looked individualistic. Werner Pulisic-------------Ziyech Mount---Havertz Kante Chilwell---Zouma---Silva----James Mendy

Is it surprising we look tremendously better now given Lampard is going back to what worked?

Tremendously better with Mount and Kante on.

I threw my bottle of water after that.

Did you lot see that attempted lob pass from Joringho where both Chilwell and CHO were wide open, yet the pass found a Krasnodar defender?

Am I seeing things, or are there wide open channels to our attackers that both our defence and midfield are completely ignoring in favor of recycling possession?

Its going to happen

We definitely wouldn't of. Leicester City was the only club to make it past the round of 16. English clubs at the time was at a relatively low standard. Bloody Monaco took the piss out of City and we nearly got our cheecks clapped at the Ethiad had Luiz got sent off and KDB doesn't hit the post.

It will be quite telling if Tomori doesn't feature here. Either he is underperforming in training or there are deeper issues we don't know about between him and Lampard. Tomori literally has all the makings of a top CB. Wish it was he that was learning from Silva and not Zouma.

Probably because they are tired of seeing the same members posting the same repetitive nonsense on how a 19 and 21 year old footballer are finished articles and won't ever make it here.

I'm personally not a fan of a back 3 if Kovacic isn't in midfield. Bruno, Fred, and McTominay did a great job blocking the channels to our attack and forced us wide. We were extremely limited with what we could do through the middle and could hardly progress forward. This is where Kovacic could've been beneficial as he provides another option (dribbling) in transition vs passing it through the channels. I do agree though a lot of it was down to tactics. Curious to see how we do the next run of games.

It was heavily congested in the midfield. Still think the 343 should of never been deployed but I can understand if the approach was to "not lose at all costs but nick a win if we can". A lot is expected the next few games then.

All that is anecdotal. Not tangible. I truly believe refs in England are just shit. There's a reason they don't go to world cups any more.

When Kante cannot make a simple pass forward, criticism is justified.

Let's take a minute to not over hype him. The bar was very low considering the Kepa situation. That said, he's look great so far.

Sheffield rate him as a CB. Has Ampadu played CM at all yet?

Mendy Dave - Christensen. - Tomori - Emerson Kovacic Jorginho Mount Ziyech Tammy CHO

Should Silva really play here? Perfect game for Ziyech to start

Expected. Let’s see how this finishes

What’s terrifying is that Ole will almost undoubtedly take the initiative before Lampard.

Kante is just so bad on the ball

We know what it is. At least I think. A DM is the final piece
