Sideshow Luiz

Well, it's the fundamental passage of the Blues season. Yes, our tip with Morata isn't thick enough. Limp, almost.

Not the most fleet of foot, but uses his brain.

1st team looks knackered. With the injuries up front, CHO has to start. in midfield, it looks like Kovacic, Jorginho and Kante.

The least inspiring brace I've ever seen. I echo what @Tomo says. Beyond football, I hope his mental health is okay. He looks so lost.

He was amazing for us in Conte's title winning season. Conte didn't really want him, but he knuckled down and worked on his defensive game, made himself a key member of the squad. Basically, wouldn't let Conte keep him out of the side.

Cesc.

His position may well be cover for Rudiger, and not Luiz

Wait....he's on a hat trick?

How in christ do you miss that? I can't wait to see the xG at the end of the match. Edit: Offside anyway

Nice wing play. Sign him up

I think it might be bad, as if he knows that he's going to be out a while.

Look at Morata. When Emerson was getting to the byline for a cross, he wasn't even making a move towards a goal scoring position.

ooops.

Pen. Give it to Cesc.

Luiz is mopping everything up.

Of our midfield options, he's the most eligible for a move. If we want a better attacker, he's the one that needs upgrading. Though, I really admire his work rate and what he's done to try to get himself in the team.

Yeah, and it's an afterthought for us. What do you think goes through the mind of the ref? He goes down and the thought that he was actually fouled comes around much later.

If he's not even scoring headers, he's toast. Last season he was good in the air, but couldn't finish 1v1. Now....He's actually regressed.

Sigh....couldn't score in a brothel. Listen to the crowd, not even surprised.

Surprised that Moses isn't starting at RW. IMO, RLC is a bit neutered out wide.

I'll miss Cesc. A little shit disturber with a sublime passing range.

His name isn't linked a lot and aport from @Vesper and myself previously (sorry if I've forgotten anyone else), for the the kind of money they are talking about for Wilson, and a couple of stop gaps like Higuain or Cavani, I'd like to see Depay's name come up. I think he's worth the risk, seeing as though every other target has a question mark, his ceiling is very high in comparison.

Pedulla has weighed in: https://www.alfredopedulla.com/esclusiva-chelsea-vuole-incontrare-la-juve-higuain-sondaggio-cavani/ Typical Pedulla translation: The Chelsea has to solve at all costs the goal problem. In the last few hours he did a survey, only a poll, with the Paris Saint-Germain for Cavani , deadline 2020 and also attracted by Chinese sirens for the future. Just a survey, we said. Because Chelsea is going to ask for a match next week at Juve to assess the Higuain situation .

Ouch

I didn't mean to sound like I was questioning you, just more of a general "is that the case?, if so...."
