Werner AGAIN brilliant and insanely unlucky. He should have like 4 goals himself here, ffs 😂😂😂

TIMOOOOO Finishkng has been unlucky today until that but he has been an absolute menace. This is the Werner of Leipzig down to a T.

Whilst he hasn’t been tested whatsoever defensively yet, RLC looks MUCH more dangerous when he’s got acres of open space to run into out wide.

WHAT A GOAL MASEEEEEE

Finally, a good aggressive start. Could’ve scored 3 already. Keep it up now, damn it.

Back 4 again. Alonso again. RLC again. Werner again. Here we fucking go…. 😔😔😔

Feels like if we don’t put in a BIG TIME performance and win convincingly here our season will unravel completely right at the business end. If we lose 3 straight games in humiliating fashion and then have Real Madrid again midweek I’m not sure we’d recover mentally. This is the kind of match where we need our biggest players to step the fuck up. Win this and head to Madrid with some confidence that we can at least make them worry a bit.

Looking ahead to beyond this season, what we really need in order to attack the CL again next season is a couple of high quality wide players to surround Kai with. Enough trying to sign expensive #9’s. We desperately need to identify the next Jota/Luis Diaz/Son type. We need this sort of aggressive wide forward type who puts relentless pressure on defenses. It’s what we all thought we’d get with Werner. Saw it up close with Vini Jr today. You see it with Mbappe and lately Dembele at Barca. Werner is done here, CHO will never live up to his early promise, Ziyech is not that sort of player, and Pulisic is too wildly inconsistent. If we can have Chilly and Reece fully fit and sign a couple of top class support players for Kai we will be so dangerous.

Must be said, btw, that Mendy makes mistakes on a regular basis. He is capable of excellent saves and is as good as anyone with his hands but he makes idiotic decisions quite often with his feet. A dreadful clearance here, coming out of his area and not kicking the ball away there. He’ll punch rather than catch too often. This is why he will never be more than a very good keeper and not at the truly elite level that Ederson and Allison are at.

I’m annoyed but it’s hard to be too devastated after we won it last season. It’s unbelievably hard to retain this thing. When we go out next week I’ll be supporting ANYONE but the English teams.

There’s just zero resistance for either cross on their goals. The defending from wide areas is nonexistent.

Tie over in 25 minutes. Embarrassing. Two horrendous performances on the bounce now.

Murdering us down that side over and over again. Christensen can’t live with Vinicius and James is nowhere in support. International break seems to have totally broken our defensive solidity.

Other than Kova not starting that’s probably the best we can do. Hopefully a more energetic and forceful performance than at the weekend. And then we can send on Lukaku and Kova to run at tired legs later on if the game is tight.

Nearly impossible to be worse than that today and I’m sure we’ll be much better against RM, but you never want to get embarrassed like that. Can’t be good for confidence heading into such a massive game.

Werner and Alonso should not wear a Chelsea shirt again this season. RLC should not start another game this season. He should be nothing more than a body to come in as a late sub. And we better hope Christensen, James, and Pulisic are ready to start against Madrid and that these niggling injuries that Mendy and Kante picked up today are small. They’ll be watching this and licking their lips.

Finishing below Arse is embarrassing enough on its own. Finishing below them when they started with 0 points from their first 9 would next level humiliation.

Tuchel absolutely deserves blame for this, too. He made a point in his presser to say Jorginho came back early from Italy duty to be ready. We have Kovacic. He didn’t take Brentford as seriously as he should’ve by starting with this XI. RLC, Werner, and this back 4 should never have started.

Game over. Humiliated at home by Brentford. All 3 utterly embarrassing goals to concede. Arse going to catch us in the league now. European Champions, club world champions, team full of top internationals. Humiliated and spanked at home by a tiny team like Brentford.

Real Madrid are going to humiliate us. If fucking Brentford can march through us with zero resistance imagine what they’ll do to us.

Unreal. From our own goddamn corner. WHY WOULD ALL 3 PLAYERS GONTO THE FUCKING BALL????

Lazy, soft defending from RLC again.

Fucking hell.

LOOOOOOL HE FINALLY GOT ONE

Brentford know that they can just tightly mark our attackers and allow Azpi + Alonso to have all of the ball and they can’t do anything at all creatively. It has felt like those two have had about 75% of our possession because Brentford (correctly) doesn’t show them any respect going forward. The likes of Mount, Kante, and RLC in midfield have to get on the ball more and be forceful.
