Pulisic and Ziyech are only of our 7 attackers I ever saw delivering from the bench. Pulisic in Chelsea had 10 games with goals or assist from the bench Ziyech 2 times this season. And this may trick you Pulisic won his place sometimes and deserves to start but once he does nothing happens. Use his as super sub.

If he is 183cm at 14 he may better switch to basketball. Will most likely go over 2m.

Sarri is only manager we had that I would trust in the long term. Conte and Jose always burn bridges at one point. Lampard was never good enough, TT is another who looks like short term and had similar problems in previous clubs so there is a pattern how this may end. Especially in Chelsea. Ok Sarri wanted to go to Juve after transfer ban but he always makes his teams better season after season. There were some positive signs by the end of the season. But we will never find out what would happened.

I was joking with comment in this thread but I think we have great squad on paper. Mendy, Rudiger, Silva, Chilwell, James, Jorginho, Kante, Kovacic would all be in their teams or are similar level as their starting players. Pep for example wanted Lukaku and Werner. Klopp wanted Pulisic and Werner also. Problem is that our players are underperforming. All attacking ones and last couple of weeks even defensive part. Tuchel did not improve our attacking players. Klopp and Pep would this second swipe Firmino or Jesus for Kai. What I would like now to see is that TT changes formation. Ok, we need Chilwell back for that but at one point he has to do it. Azpi will be dropped, I dont trust Chris in back 4 so Chalobah can be good pairing with Silva or Rudiger. Chilly and Jamas full backs. We have 3 great players for pivot and ffs play Kai as AM.

Who else? We changed them all 🤣🤣

6 bad games in a row. Laughing stock.

We did that last game.

We have 80% possession. 22 attempts.

Conte will catch us but just defend 4th place. 2nd place with 90 points or 4th with 60 is the same. No title, CL qualification.

He really become tip in marchant. Also, are you indicating that I am not happy about Mount goals?

I absolutely forgot about title since WH. Don't care about City and Liverpool results. We are not fighting with them.

Finally...

Havertz is also missing.

When will Spurs play all these postponed games?

It's not just 6 goals for Southampton. He also scored 3 goals for Albania without starting. And scored a couple in pre season. The ones against Hungary are very impressive. I don't know, he reminds me of Diego.

Leicester and Spurs have 15 players combined with Covid. Both teams asked for game to be postponed FA says no. But for others OK.

Goals this season: Abraham 10 Broja 6 Lukaku 5 Werner 5 First 2 from the academy, other two cost us 170m euros plus hefty pay check.

Guehi and Gallagher vs Broja and Livramento. And Caballero on goal.

Horrible source. And what if Ben is really back in January. Plus considering his contract and salary I cant see Alonso leaving before summer 2023 for free. We will not have 3 LBs.

For us it would be good if Botman leave this winter but still Lille should be comfy even with him. Really curious to see what will Newcastle do this January.

FFS put them all in the bubble again. Another one...

At their place yes. We have 3 losses in a row and just one win in last 7 visits there. But at SB it has been one of the easiest fixtures. Last 11 games at home against them we have 9 wins and 2 draws in all comps. In PL last 5 games: 5:0 2:0 0:0 4:0 2:0

I expect all these players not to be here next season. Rudiger Azpilicueta Sarr RLC Barkley Saul Werner Question marks over Kepa, Alonso, Ziyech, Pulisic. Kepa may leave on loan most likely because he is too good to be number two. Top Italian and Spanish clubs may go for him but question is can they give him salary like Chelsea and does he wants to go there? Perfect for us if he stays as number two. Anyway Baxter and Cumming are doing amazing on loan. Alonso will have one year left on contract and most likely he will leave for free in summer 2023. But we managed to sell Zappacosta, I think Alonso tho would prefer to stay as backup and put himself in great position as free agent. If Werner leave chances that Pulisic and Ziyech both stay are bigger but lets see what happens this season with their game time and level of performance. Jorginho will also have one year left on contract but he is 30 in a couple of days so dont know how will situation with contract go and his agent often speaks about his return to Italy. Most likely another player who will leave for free in summer 2023. Chris and Silva will extend. These 7 players I think will leave we need to replace with just 4 but top quality. Actually 3 considering Gallagher is already ours and he will replace RLC, Barkley and Saul. Yes, we dont need 5th guy. In summer 2023 yes. Sarr is extra so Rudi and Azpi need replacing. Kounde is obviously one instead of Azpi for that RCB role, same height. And it will be tricky to find Rudi replacement but needs to be strong, tall defender like De Ligt or Fofana. But in that case I would be concerned with too many young defenders because only Silva is experienced one. Who of the older guys can replace Rudiger but to have these characteristics? And I dont know which attacker will be, we are stuck with Lukaku and for wide positions Chiesa comes to mind.
