Not horrible not great so far. Estevao has been quite lively.

Scared when defending, ineffective going forward. Definetly not sold himself Today, but to be fair he had three established and experienced mates around(Fofana, Chalobah, Gusto) who do not create a stable environment at all.

Garnacho haven't done much so far to make me like him. I bet he will have limited playing time and he'll force a loan in January to secure place for World Cup.

Nice.. Why could we not done this in the first half?

Ikr? And these attackers.. Garnacho, Gittens, George. Aren't they supposed to push for starting role? Feels like starters playing in a summer league game.

"Playing" is already too nice. We are like, present.

You should watch it mate, so much fun!

Has the potential to be better than both but we have seen him very few minutes in top level. Think he should be easily better than Tomori(if not already), very comfortable with the ball. Guehi didn't seem to be so promising but reached very high level and maturity during the years. I feel Josh will be like Colvill, when he gets his chance he will stuck in the starting eleven.

Better send some more defenders in the field before it's too late.

Can we even make a sub? We made 3 already in 3 different occasion. Doesn't one team have 3 chances to make 5 subs? Or this rule is gone?

This is real life, not Fifa carreer mode. If one team really abandoned a game there would be very serious consequences, no coincidence you never saw that in pro football.

Geez.. 85 minutes of parking the bus in shity weather.. Gotta be great.

Who was he supposed to sub off?

Neto vs. Dorgu and Estevao vs. Shaw will be key, we should be agressive and bully them. Also don't forget to be rough with Bayindir at corners/free kicks. We definetly have the tools to win this one, would be satisfying. I believe a loss will make Amorim lose his job too.

Game is getting intense and dirty. I got an advice for Vincent, don't send Jackson in, he will get a red card.

Have been craving these proper European nights, this one should be fun. Even if the result will be suboptimal I can take it, but Jackson scoring against us would be hurtful.

I completely missed so I put it here in case some of you guys too: Buonanotte was named in the squad replacing Essugo and has travelled to Munich.

Ligue 1 is miles ahead of both of these leagues. It also became a sort of farmer league for PL, they taylor made players for us, high percentage of players signed from there work out here. We can send players like Sarr or Paez as last step to RSC, if they work out there, they can be promoted to Chelsea. But from Belgian league? I don't think so. It's very wise we chose to invest there.

Next week we will play Bayern, then Manchester United... I was hoping either Lavia or Essugo can get into rotation/game fit state until we reach this part of the season. But in the next 3 month Lavia needs to stay fit.

Wonder why he wasn't issued squad number yet.

New reports claim he will be out for 3 months, not the whole season. Still a shame, but makes more sense, I was wondering what kinds of thigh injury can sidline someone for 9 months.

I would not be surprised if we sold him. Maresca had him in his team for 9 months but never send on pitch, which probably means he is not the kind of player he wants. If we can make a nice profit, let it be.

Whole season with thigh injury?? That's weird. But copy pastes Lavias first season then.

In January he will have 6 months left from his contract. Think he will stay(for WC at least) and drop for free next year.
