Where is @NikkiCFC? You of all people should be bombarding this thread atm. Thought he was sharp yesterday in the pivot. Absolute joy to have him in the squad and reassuring we have him as an option vs Ruben.

It makes more sense to prioritise Kounde over Kimpembe. Kounde will take that RCB spot and Koulibaly the LCB.

Some bloke who was at the game said CHO is slower in person. Even said Ziyech was faster than him.

Havertz has zero excuses this season.

This match free on the 5th stand?

Colwill injured already?

Always thought Sane was homesick hence his move to back to Germany.

So so is generous. He was an abomination against United and was rightfully dropped. Missed like 2-3 open chances.

Any update on his foot injury?

Not the profile Tuchel wants. He wants instinctive attackers that take players on. Asensio just injury prone now too.

These complete midfielders are hard to come by nowadays. Matheus Nunes imo is perfect for the pivot imo.

MDL and Gvaridol aren't happening. If given the option I'd lean towards Kounde as he is a more composed figure on the ball (when put under pressure). Not to mention if you look at his ball carries its almost identical, if not better, than Rudiger's.

Should really be Kounde if Tuchel wants that CB to drive forward with the ball (ala Rudiger). Kounde Silva Koulibaly Chalobah Koulibaly Colwill

When he gives Sarr the 'match ball'. 😂

I very much like the Nunes lad. Wouldn't' cost a fortune either.

So 7 players for one position?

So where are CHO and Pulisic? Or Mount for that matter?

A glaring obvious issue and its worrying me its not being addressed.

I want you to be right, but I just don't see it. Looks like a player that struggles in close proximities.

There is no way you can tell me Rudiger and Christensen are better than Koulibaly and Kimpembe. I swear some people have recency bias when it comes to the former two. We wanted them gone before Tuchel.

No, he's not. A 37 year old Quagliarella looked good in Seria A and won the bloody golden boot.

Our midfield is too lightweight imo. Need a presence in midfield.

Leao will be the definition of a panic buy. Watching 5 seconds of him and you can see he wouldn't survive in the Prem.

Don't think we were ever interested. Think Tuchel wants a midfielder with Defensive capabilities + Offensive.

Not good enough to what, compete the for the title? That was never the goal. The goal is to finish comfortably in the Top 4, win a trophy and go hard in the Champions League. There is no one available that can improve our attack. I do agree we need to bring in an extra body in midfield.
