YO! This is major fucking news. Hollywood FC we outchea, What the fuck is happening behind the scenes at Chelsea? Did Roman actually back a manager over his stooges? What was the tipping point? Chelsea Twitter is a madness right now. Thoughts @Styles ???

Wrong Thread

Thank You. There was no reason to buy Bakayoko at all. His technique on the ball is embarrassing and the only way he excels is if he'd paired with a DLP like Fabinho or Matic. I wish his brother never caved in during negotiations, we almost, ALMOST got away from making such a tragic mistake. Imagine spending 40M on a CENTRAL MIDFIELDER, who cannot control or pass a ball without multiple touches or do so between the lines.

Desperately need him to sign that new contract. However, I would completely understand if he decided he's had enough of Hollywood-FC. Man was surrounded by Alonso, Willian, Bakayoko, Fabregas, and Cahill. And Azpi as a RWB. I don't know how he hasn't strangled someone at CFC for such inept recruitment.

One of the worst CM performances I've ever seen. Only topped off by his partner in crime Bakayoko.

#WILLIANOUT Man came on and couldn't complete simple 5yd passes. And his first touch has been atrocious this ENTIRE season. Beyond trash.

ABSOLUTE FRAUD.

Yep, #CONTEOUT

I have no words. Qarabag doing us a solid rn.

Gonna need Morata/Hazard/Pedro to pull a masterclass if we're to win this. Expect a lot of goals in this one. Also: very happy Pedro is full recovered and Willian is back on his rightful place on the bench. We thank God.

Bakayoko - Fabregas Double Pivot I never want to see these two again paired together after their performances vs Crystal Palace & Watford.

AND A FUCKING PROPER LEFT-BACK ONLY AT CHELSEA WOULD HE BE PAIRED ON THE LEFT-WING WITH A RB PLAYING LB IN AZPILICUETA AND NO-PACE-HAVING MARCOS ALONSO. WE SHOULD BE TRIED FOR FOOTBALL CRIMES. IF GHOULAM, DANNY ROSE OR ALEX SANDRO AREN'T STARTING LB NEXT SEASON, SCENES WILL BE FUCKING HAD. /RANT.

Really need Drinkwater/Kante to get back to fitness and stabilize our CM. This season, Fabregas has started 8/9 PL games, that means he's on pace to start 30 PL games this season alone! (discounting UCL & FA CUP). Compare that to Fabregas starting only 13 games in the PL last season and being subbed on 16 times. It's not Fabregas's fault, but the fact is he just can't continue to start games at this rate. The Drinkwater/Kante/Bakayoko injuries have royally fucked us this season. And the lack of further CM options has forced Conte to continue to play Fabregas in CM. I know the Bakayoko-Kante double pivot has been very poor in terms of maintaining possession/general aesthetic play, but together against Leicester/Stoke/City/Spurs they conceded only 1 Open-play goal. Advanced data showed, that when Matic-Kante started, CFC last season had extremely low-event matches. (Meaning that the total # of shots taken & saves made, were much less in CFC games compared to others in the league.) But when Fabregas starts in CM, CFC lose so much central control of the match. And the opposition are able to generate more dangerous-central shots. Like just look at the 2 Richarlson misses and Watford's 2nd goal, they completely walked past our CM like Bakayoko-Cesc were non-existent. The key to fixing our defensive displays will be the removal of Fabregas from CM, and only starting him in either 3-man midfield or up higher as part of the front 3, which Conte did a lot last season. Hopefully Drinkwater/Baka/Kante stay fit for the rest of the season.

We're paying the price bigly for not having a top LB and top possession based CM. You can already see Fabregas is gassed beyond belief this season. I think Conte might have to permanately ditch the 343 unti Drinkwater/Kante are back.

We've become way too predictable. And we can't maintain possession for sustained periods. Very frustrating to watch us play this season.

Biggest concerns would be Alonso against whichever RWB or RW City choose, and the team's energy levels. Our home form Is very concerning, having already Lost and Drawn games (Burnley/Arsenal) you'd expect us to have absolutely won. Cannot afford to drop many more points at home. It's one of those stats that always signify eventual champions.

From the website, to the podcast, and player comps on twitter. Loving the growth you & Zach are having with BTL in such a short time span. Love the signing of ScoutNationHD, cause I know his comps rarely get taken down. Wishing you guys continued success, man. 🙏

Amazing defensive/transitional plays from both.

ELITE ELITE ELITE.

What a fantastic song for Bakayoko and N'golo.. mad catchy.

Apparently Azpilicueta is Captain!? This sounds too good to be true, Can anybody confirm??

Can somebody please tell me what Moses adds to our team? Honestly, how are Stoke's! WBs pinning Moses back for the entirety of that match? I've never seen a player so scared to push forward. (Actually, that's a lie. See Alonso.) Idk why, but Moses concedes so much space when defending like he doesn't have the pace to recover. And that hurts the team so much because it allows the opposition to effectively camp in our half because Alonso does the same thing in the other side.

If Willian doesn't ruin 1373892 attacks did he really play? Cannot wait until he's no longer a starting XI player.

What a player. I'm so happy he's ours. Cannot wait for him to add more range on his passes and develop more physically. There is nothing more Christensen can do to signal that he deserves to be starting.
