Strike

Been a while since we had teams in a chokehold like this for long spells

Madueke has taken a couple of horror corners so far

The worst miss so far

Now Palmer misses a sitter.

Man completely free to ping in a shot after a simple corner routine

Madueke. Should be ahead

Yes looked offside too if you count it as a deflection from Alfie

Phew no goal

Colwill seen with physios. Seems to be an injury or at least a scare

Alfie Gilchrist replacing Colwill in the lineup

This is great news. Along with Carney we are getting quite a few key players back

People are discussing replacement names because everyone from Ornstein to Romano are reporting Chelsea is trying to sell Broja.

He's been playing well from what I have seen. But nowhere near the goal output to come in here.

So what? Sign no one when the club sells Broja?

Would rather try and get Guirassy than go for Wilson or Jhon Duran

That boy deserved to be kicked as far as I remember 😀

You’re right. David’s contract expires in 25. He’s having a quiet season like Osimhen though.

Shows the major flaw in going after wonderkids. Those who are good at age-level football or when they are 20 are not necessarily the ones who go on to have a great career. Apart from the very obviously talented ones like Haaland or Mbappe or Jude.

All of these options will go for a hefty fee too. Close to the 103 million Osimhen will cost.

The recent Osimhen interview where he said that he’s made his decision has me thinking it’s Chelsea.

The first part doesn’t show up on the data sheets too - the ability to read the game off the ball.

There’s something about the City setup. I don’t think anyone who’s left City in the last few years have been bad signings for other clubs. Zinchenko, Jesus, Palmer, Gundogan, Cancelo and even Sterling to an extent have all done well. People were saying we were targeting City rejects but they seem to be really good in general even if they are not the best at City.

Its not like we needed more evidence but play Sterling on the left and bench Mudryk for a while. I think his physical attributes can be used as a sub to stretch games but in games where we are trying to open up a defense, he has a negative effect on the team. Sterling left, Palmer right, Nkunku middle with in-game rotations could be really good. Carney is a good option too.

I want Liverpool in the final. Lost two finals on pens when the games were both very even in 2022. Time to win one
