CB again not getting close enough to the crosser. Too late by the time he does. Wtf. 2 crosses. 2 goals. Shocking that one came from a throw in as well.

That is an absolutely fantastic cross but wtf who is following Herrera there? Ffs. Also could Rudiger have gotten any further away from the crosser there fucking hell.

Good start so far. Just need to be a bit quicker in final third.

Maybe but I wouldnt be surprised. He would be given a blank chequebook at PSG to win the CL. Throw in how good some of them players are and if they buy into his methods, hed be able to deliver on a short term basis I feel. Stranger things have happened.

Honestly think hes one of the best suited managers they can get for their CL dream. In the short term, with all the backing PSG could offer, on top of the likes of having Verratti, Neymar, Mbappe, Cavani, Thiago Silva and Marquinhos already the guy could realisitcally get them to a CL final I think. I think Tuchel is too much of an idealisitc manager like Sarri, to be able to instill that win at all costs mentality which undoubtly comes at the cost of the teams playing style sometimes. Mourinho or Zidane on the otherhand...

It doesn't matter. Cesc loved Arsenal.... Courtois loved Atletico, Torres loved Liverpool... Ashley Cole loved Arsenal.... countless players have done it in the past and players will do it still. Good character or not. If it came down to leaving Chelsea (which I think is 100% what he has decided to do) and only PSG made a move do you think hed say na? No chance, we are looking at no CL football next season again potentially. Realistically he could go anywhere. Good character or not, weve seen enough of it in modern day football to know that loyalty is totally different to what it was 20 years ago. Would be absolutely naive to think he would 100% not go to Paris just because "he loves Lille".

And Courtois wouldnt go to Real. Cesc wouldnt play for another team in England. Among countless others. At the end of the day if Real dont go for him because they get Neymar and PSG did offering huge transfer fee and huge money I wouldnt be surprised. I think he will be gone regardless. Doesnt have to be Real. Could be Bayern, could be Barca, could be PSG could be Juventus. Who knows.

Zidane. Oh ffs. He would come in and stroke the ego of these guys who have already shown they are willing to down tools if shit gets tough regardless. Would be a idiotic move. Its clear that a overhaul is needed. Also did anybody actually watch Real under Zidane? No real playing style, hugely dependent on Ronaldo... the fact Real are in a huge struggle now without Ronaldo shows what he was giving them and how average a side they actually are without him despite having world class players. They had no proper structure under Zidane it was a matter of play as you wish, if all fails Ronaldo is there. Bit harsh maybe but he mainly won 3 CLs due to the fact he had the ultimate big game player in world football.

I dont get the Kante point youve made there. When has he ever played as a DM? Can somebody please find this out because I am seeing it everywhere and have been all season and other than 4 games under Conte he has never played there in the PL or for the NT. Even Darren Fletcher (ex United captain and Scotland NT player) aluded to it in an interview with BBC Sport. Hes never played as a sitting midfielder in the PL. Ever. Also I think we could surprise people tonight, nobody expects us to get a result based on what Ive seen so I think it would be the perfect opportunity for the players to get one. United havent exactly been brilliant either, theyre more offensive but leave huge gaps when their full backs get advanced.

Great post. If he does it again throughout the whole of the remainder of the season and next, then I will be believe he is a really good player. Like you've said re Belotti. 100% agree.

Exactly. But they also need to step up and take some responsibility in helping the team get out when this happens. Jorginho has struggled some games yes but being man marked is a sign of respect. Everyone knows Kante and Kovacic dont do what he does.

Kepa Azpi - Rudi - Christensen - whatever one of the two evils Kante - Jorgi - Kovacic Pedro - Higuain - Eden

So when we arent in turmoil the media say nothing ahout how Sarri has treated Cahill. Soon as shit goes wrong, start writing stories... hmmm... good old English media

Will take time to change, probably not going to be happening anytime soon.

Why compare players situations at clubs like Roma, AC Milan, Ajax, Fulham, Leverkusen, etc. Its obvious theyre going to play young kids that good. I mean are people still shocked we dont play youth? Really? In 2019? Baffling.

Munir isnt even a Barca player anymore... he moved to Sevilla for 1m euros

That was probably more of a result of AVB alienating all the senior pros than Robbie coming in and completely building up everyone. Some of the players had a new lease of life but again the level of performances under AVB were similar to what we seen under Jose, Conte and Sarri in terms of effort. Absolutely pathetic. Zolas managerial career has been abysmal, no disrespect to him. Robbies was average but Zolas is so so bad. Could work could not.

Belotti and Jovic will cost 50-75m each. Belotti isnt even worth it.

Good player but as stated, complete knobhead. Also made a critical mistake making his wife his agent. Ditch your agent and leave the attitude behind though and you'd be welcome. Rumours are Juventus wanted him before Ronaldo last season but was financially tough, theyre meant to be going back for.him this summer though. But seen that on twitter linked to quotes from their sporting director or something mentioning Icardi was first choice but when Ronaldo deal looked like it could happen, he was priority.

Reports are he is Barca bound in the summer.

Honestly think Romeu started well here and he needed more chances ahead of Mikel at times, who was out of form. Another game no clean sheet. Not good. Still plenty work needed here from everyone, players and manager.

Hes a brilliant player though. Age goes against him but has plenty to offer the right club.

Lower championship to top level PL player in 3 seasons? Dont be silly. Reece is a big talent yes but he needs time to make the progression. Wan-Bissaka has been class for Palace this year.

Wouldnt be surprised if its anything to do with his contract negotiations. His fucking money grabbing agent/wife making extrodinary demands more than likely 😂

Yeah his pace just makes him a huge weapon even without the ball because teams know whats coming but hes so difficult to match or to stop. Lindelof tried to stay with him for the 2nd goal and got blitzed.
