Just dont fucking pay 60m for Kovacic in summer. We have RLC and money has to be spent elsewhere. Kovacic is nothing but flair. He offers zero end product that can actualy change the game.

Yeah Kepa and Hazard are underperforming but thats not going to save us every damn game. They are still decent though, but not great. What does Alonso or Morata offer past few weeks? Absolutely fucking nothing. Thats the difference.

Its not one game though. I was silent most of this season, but tonight you can see damn glimses its all same old shit. New manager, old problems. Alonso is pure shit and you dont need to be expert to see it. We even have better fullback in Emerson atm and he isnt playing. Rotating in such important game, as if we can afford to rotate since its going to be hard to win against city anyway. Might as well rotate there, because its not like Willian and co are going to destroy them. We arent 1st place quality, but top 4 is defintely crucial. No fucking excuse. And Arsenal, spurs are both in much better form now. We had good start, but thats over. Arsenal started weak, but they cought their form and actualy play consistently good now (somehow we are doing the opposite) Everyone saying Cho is not ready blah blah. RLC was last midfielder anyone would think about at start of season but look how much wonder some playtime did for him. Cho needs a damn chance and when you have Willian who is absolute piss, why the hell not play CHO? Because we would lose? We are losing eitherway 2:1... Not much can be done with striker indeed, we simply need to buy new one soon. But finaly, we started well and got better, then that was over and now we are crap for at least 1 month. Our attack is terrible overall. We played only spuds of the good teams and they spanked us. We played shit even against some terrible teams.

Well Kovacic gets in the game and alredy fucks up a simple pass

We have Emerson and he isnt even on bench haha What we need is striker though because our attack (Morata, Giroud) is pure shit.

Honeymoon period is over. We played better two months ago when we should actualy play better now if things evolved properly. It just goes to show that everyone was in high spirits in start, worked together etc etc, but now that faded and we are back to bad form with bad results AND bad performances. Our attack linkup is non-existent ffs.

Thats for rotating against wolverhampton. If we dont win this, how will we win against city? What was Sarri thinking anyway? To rotate tonight and go full strenght vs city? Its all about 3 points man. We have more chance to win against wolves and should go full strenght against them because its easier to get 3 points. Even with best 11, our chances against city arent that great. Now we are losing against wolves because we didnt pick strongest 11, and we might aswell lose to city even with strongest 11. Bloody great thinking. We just arent that good yet to be able to afford such shit. And if you are rotating, he didnt do one rotation that actualy makes sense (Alonso_Emerson)

We should be 2:0 ahead but obviously our finishing is crap and they get brave and score 1:1 Fucking hell just drop Morata. He is awful.

Cool signing for them. I like Soton, hopefuly they stay in prem.

Apparently negotiations fell apart between Juve and Sandro who wanted same wage as Dybala and Pjanic and Juve board took it very badly. If there is any chance he will be available next summer, we should be all over him.

Its actualy realy funny how us and United ended up fighting for two shit strikers, meanwhile Arsenal grabs not one but 2 realy good ones with no competion.

Zappacosta seems to be closer to the XI than him, so I'd take Azpi at LB for now. Meh Zappacosta is just one of those safe short fix options..decently reliable but offers absolutely nothing extra. Emerson might be more raw at the moment, but his celining is still quite high IMO. Worth a risk in couple games. These safe options have to stop. I remember Mourinho at Real in 2012 when he shipped young, but clearly talented Carvajal out in favour of Essien to play RB. Lucky for Real, they got him back eventualy. We failed to do that with Kdb or Salah because of more proven safe options. I still fully believe if Emerson leaves to play regular football elsewhere, he will end up better than any fullback we had since Cole and Iva (Azpi excluded). The club has to realize that we have to look longterm and try more risks or we will never improve.

Stupid everton fucks...how can you concede such goal in 96th minute...

If we had prime Robben on right side, obviously Cho shouldnt play. But with Willian being average, Cho definately should get a game or two. Thats the reward system. After you play well, you deserve your chance. But at Chelsea we keep playing underperforming stars and young players decide to fuck off.

Now that goals dried up, he realy doesnt offer much at all. Emerson also had great game recently. What will happen next? Sarri keep playing Alonso sadly.

Thotenham lost yay

Seriously time to try him in PL games. With more play time and confidence, he will be better than Alonso.

Cho

Am i missing something or why is everyone talking of Rugani like he is next Beckenbauer or something? I just dont see any reason how would he improve our backline. He didnt play in months, still realy young and inexperienced,...

The real advantage city has is the depth. We have to stick with same players, even if they perform shit. At city, Aguero, Sane, Sterling, Mahrez, Silva, both cbs...they get benched if underperforming to up their level for next game.

To challenge for title, we need new striker, RW, CB and LB. And Kovacic to massively improve. But right now I would be just happy with new quality striker.

Its work in progress but Sarri will have to adopt to PL and certain teams. Current way its predictable and while we play nicer football, its also less effective. For example, we shouldnt play Jorginho as DM against their midfielders. Jorginho is just too weak for that. Also Giroud who is good in aerial challenges should start because that is also spuds defenders weakness.

Our defense was just shocking. But thats what to expect when your DM is Jorginho. However, this team is designed to keep the ball and rotate it until scoring chance, at least in first half. But today, we couldnt control shit. They were all over us. Also, its unbelievably sad that our " strongest" player in attack and midfield is Hazard. Others get bullied soo easily. Jorginho, Kovacic and Morata have awful body balance, team like spurs dominated our midfield with ease. Kante and Willian arent strong either, but have good balance which saves them sometimes. Only player that could hold on the ball and not lose it was Eden. This can be frustrating if we needed to score a goal, because with such players, we cant "push" through the lines. We can only pass and hope to create goal scoring chance Kepa at second was third tier level goalkeeping, at least for me. Had all the time to change direction and jump but just stood there. Third one was comical because our defense was schooled in a way local league defenders dont. That aside, I sort of expected loss because we are far from great team. Morata can leave in january, other spots have players that can improve still. Morata on other hand is plain useless.

Spain, Portugal is alot cooler to live than Germany, Austria, Swiss,...if you are open minded. Personaly I dont like these strict, uptight, always in a hurry folk. Not because I dont like them per se, but because they transfer that attitude on you. And then you always feel that hurry and tightness among them. Relaxed, level headed folk in spain gives much more pleasant vibes for life.

What about Depay? Fixed his workrate and now looks more level headed, he plays quite well for Lyon and Netherlands, althrough he has been hot and cold in ligue 1 this year. Ex united player too, but tbh I wouldnt give a shit as long was success here. Would be interesting to see him in cf role under Sarri.
