I did not praise any of them. Just comparad all their stats. Did not mentioned Havertz goals at all. My focus was on assists and creativity. I actually praised Mount for goals against lesser side. Does anyone thinks that RLC or Barkley are good enough for Chelsea starting 11? I am sure no one. Does anyone think Mount is good enough for Chelsea starting 11? Many. This is the problem. Standard is very low. If you think that your AM who averages 2 open play assists per season (and against weak teams) is good enough for Chelsea you are basically saying: I do not want Chelsea to reach City level and win titles, I am fine with 4th, 5th, 6th place. I put Chelsea first while Mount fanboys are acting like Lampard fanboys (probably same people) and would rather continue with them and finish 6th which Lampard fanboys even admitted on the other forum and social media. And guess who was proven wrong about Lampard and who was right? It will be the same again, because it is very similar situation. I can only imagine what pressure would Tuchel feel if he benches Mount for 3 or 4 games in a row. Internet would explode. And that is going to happen very soon because Pulisic, Ziyech and Havertz are superior players just not in form or injured.

Id be surprised if anything else happens. Real without 9 players.

Actually he is not that bad if you take away big games and games against top teams. In terms of goals. I just did research and Mount played already 22 games against big6 clubs. I would add to that Bayern, Valencia, Ajax, Sevilla and Atletico. These are 31 biggest games he had in Chelsea career. Overall he played 87 games. So in these 31 games ha has 1 goal (DDG howler) and 1 assist (set piece - Leno howler). So without big GK mistakes it would be 0 and 0. But overall horrific stats. But in other 56 games against lesser sides 12 goals and 9 assists (5 from set pieces) is not that bad for a midfielder. Actually it is pretty decent. So no point in playing him against top teams. Industrial work is all that he will give you. Industrial player haha - this is the new term I learned when people praise Mount 😆 People say do not compare him to Grealish, Foden, Maddison... Ok lets compare him to players from the same team on the same position. Overall it is pretty clear that biggest problem in Mount game is vision and creativity and I think this is the most important thing for his position. Just 4 open play assists in almost 6500 minutes in Chelsea shirt. And it was against Barnsley, Burnley, Rennes and Wolves. Havertz already 5 in less than 1500 mins. And this is slow start Kai who is nowhere near his best level. RLC in the season 18/19 under Sarri had 10 goals and 5 assists (all open play) in less than 2000 mins. Ross Barkley last season 5g and 5a in 1700 mins while Mount had 8g and 5a but in over 3700 mins. Ross 4 open play assists, Mount 2 last season. So here you can see how everyone is more creative and has better assists stats in twice or more than 4 times less minutes. I do not understand when people say he looked lively yesterday or against Spurs lately or Southampton. People need to understand what is needed from his position. Ofc he does when he is in the center of everything and only AM in the team. Did we kept clean sheets? Yes! Thank you defense. Did we controlled the games? Yes! Thank you Kova and Jorgi mostly. Did we created anything in the final 3rd from open play? Very little in all games under Tuchel. And here you first need to look at Mount. And this is our biggest problem as a team.

Mendys clean sheets under Tuchel: Wolves 0 shots on target Burnley 0 Atletico 0 And Spurs had 2 but nothing dangerous. Nothing he could do for Rudiger own goal and Minamino goal. Overall he was not tested at all in those 6 games. This is great for us ofc. Defenders are probably more confident with him. Kepa made some great saves in his 2 games under Tuchel, he will play FA Cup games I guess.

My thoughts as well. Forget 1st place in the league. I would ask for Simeone sacking immediately.

PSG, City and Bayern are only teams that worry me in the CL. Avoid them in the next round. Dortmund would be great or Porto if they get result against Juve, but Juve is nothing special either. Ofc lets first finish the job at SB. If we win CL I would not care if we finish 6th... Dont forget, our 3 best campaigns in the CL came when we changed managers in the middle of the season. RDM, Grant, Hiddink.

So many? There are just 5 games this season when Giroud played more than 60 minutes and didn't score.

But still he didn't play even in the cup game. And Emerson did. From 1st choice he is 3rd now. He is Lampard's signing. Maybe Tuchel is using him to basically say: I'm the boss now!

If we can't get Haaland this summer just keep him.

Any chance he can play LCB and replace Rudiger? He is doing well but once Silva is back he will lose that spot. I know also RCB is more natural for him but Azpi won't be dropped either.

Under Tuchel in 8 games just 2 goals conceded and one was Rudiger own goal and the other one was Zouma mistake when he should never play that position. Tuchel knows this now and he was saving Chris for Atletico because Silva was out. So defence is sorted. Jorginho and Kovacic control the games very well. Still not happy with offensive part. Now it was Olie brilliance and when I saw lineup I thought this is the only way we could score. Last game it was penalty just like against Spurs. Against Burnley it was defenders and we didn't score against Wolves. We had another pen against Sheffield United and Werner goal against Newcastle was after corner. Very little from real offensive play. But I hope this will improve soon once Havertz, Ziyech and Pulisic start playing at expected level.

Kante and Kovacic together never worked. When will people learn???

Man, Atletico is fucking horrible.

We have to score today!

0:0 is such a bad result for us.

Lemar had Felix there. Luckily he went for Suarez.

That is fake account. And even the real dude is not reliable 😆

They are playing 343 but possibly without wing backs?

This is not true. He has just 5 games as AM and 2 assists and 1 penalty won. But look at this game for example he played AM and ended up with 1 assist ad 1 pen won. But could easily had 4 assists. You can see all this in 2 mins video. Also about Mount, you realize he is not number 8 anymore? Under Tuchel he is one of the 3 most offensive players and even under Frank he played winger many times.

BS! We activated his clause and he did not wanted to join.
