Finally academy action.

Ziyech was shocking against Wolves and now again.

Tuchel doesn't trust Christensen in 4 at the back system lol

Kepa to the rescue 💪

Question was not about starting 11 but full 23 players squad. Because more than likely one player will not go to EURO from this group. It is not hard to guess that Southgate will take Mount because he usually starts for him and Maddison has not been in the squad so I think he will not go even tho he should. You have 3 GKs, 6 front players (Rashford, Kane, DCL, Sancho, Sterling and Grealish), 8 or probably even 9 defenders because England play with 3 CBs and 2 wing backs. This leaves 5 MF places. Rice and Henderson are certain for deeper role. So for 3 places you have Mount, Foden, Maddison, Winks, Phillips, Ward Prowse... Going with just 2 DMs or CMs who are more known for their defensive work is not serious option so this is why one of Phillips, Winks or Ward Prowse will go and is always in the squad. And now you have Foden, Mount and Maddison for 2 places. This is why all this discussion. Mount for England just like now for Tuchel plays as one of the 3 most offensive players on the pitch. And this is why some people like Austin here say what they say because they look at the numbers: Goals in all competitions: Foden: 10 Maddison: 9 Grealish: 7 Mount: 4 Shots (Premier League) Maddison: 47 Grealish: 46 Mount: 43 Foden: 28 Assists in all competitions: Grealish: 10 Maddison: 7 Mount: 5 Foden: 5 Also they all played 400-500 minutes less than Mount and Masons 4 goals have been against 4th division team and against 3 teams that will play Championship next season. 5 assists - 3 from corners and one against Championship side. They probably think this is not enough for one of the 3 most offensive players on the pitch. But the only problem here is Southgate because he plays wrong system for this amazing group of attacking players. They all should go imo. And with 4-2-3-1 or 4-3-3 there would be place for all of them. But with 3-4-3 you have 5 defenders and lets say Rice and Henderson in double pivot. So only 3 places on the pitch for Kane, Sterling, Sancho, Rashford, Grealish, Foden, Maddison... Southgate is clueless...

After what happened with his ex girlfriend not sure Boateng will be mentally ready for footy any time soon. But even without that he is not that good.

😬

This should be a gif.

I think Messi to PSG and Mbappe to Real. Barca is going into mediocrity.

We already played against them. 3421 or 4231 Kepa, James, Chris, Zouma, Pulisic, Gilmour, Kante, Emerson, Havertz, Zieych, Abraham.

Atletico Madrid could play home leg of Chelsea tie in Bucharest https://www.marca.com/en/football/spanish-football/2021/02/07/602033f7268e3e81428b4645.html

I do not understand why so much hate for him. Last 12 PL games: Jorginho starts: 5 wins and 2 draws. Jorginho does not start: 5 losses! In the last couple of days Sherwood and Maddison praising him to heaven only our fanbase do not rate him... Pep wanted him... Plays great for Italy. He did not cost us one single goal this season we mostly have 70% or more possession which is his main task... What else people want? On Shed End people voted him for MOTM against Spurs but not single vote here.

This. He is bought as one of the most prolific strikers in Europe. I don't really care about his position or the way he plays. We just expected from him to be in top5 European goalscorers. Happy about todays performance tho.

Yeah, no doubt CHO looked better as RWB. Not only compered to James but compered to his games when he was one of the 3 most attacking players.

I think he spoke with him and probably with Kai and Puli. Remember how Puli become better than ever after Frank dropped him for a couple of weeks? I think this is what TT is doing with them at the moment.

Since TT is our coach: Chelsea 10 points Aston Villa 6 Liverpool 6 Leicester 5 Man. Utd 5 Everton 5 Arsenal 4 Spurs 3 He got us from 10th place to 5th after 10 days! And looking at table I think it is in our hands to finish 2nd.

Kovacic is our best player under Tuchel but his shooting 😔

Yes but not sure he played on the left in 3 at the back system. Probably only on the right. If that matters...

Let's be honest. If GK didn't foul him Timo would not score there.

Nice subs.

Penalty but clumsy from Werner. No confidence at all. Jorginho yes!!!

Fucking Rudiger!!!!!!

Giroud is shit today.

Now finish them with second goal!
