  1. 10 men yes, but the way we just threw away the game was pathetic. I have never seen a 'big team' crumble like that after going down to 10. Embarrassing. Especially against a team/manager who are known for being more stubborn. Bayern for instance couple weeks ago went down to 10 men against Stuttgart at 0-0 and still won 4-0. Arsenal went down to 10 against Leeds earlier this season and still held for the point. We did not plan at all on dealing with 10 against 11. Kovacic is the only player to come out of this with any credit. He played really well despite being down to 10. Huge wake up call now.
  2. We have some really difficult games for top 4. Looking at fixtures, we may possibly need to win the UCL to be in it next season. Also please bring on Chilwell for Alonso. Just way too slow.
  3. Great performance. Such an underrated quality player. Top class.
  4. It will frustrate me if we play Pulisic at RWB just to keep the formation. I hope he is playing his natural role rather than shoehorning to fit in formation.
  5. Surely a 4-2-3-1. Would trust our official club app also
  6. I thought James was brilliant tonight. Such a beast. CHO is more offensive but James is better defensively and although CHO crossing is good, James crossing for me is better. Both put in top crosses against United that should have been converted tbh. Chilwell also against Liverpool was very effective and I prefer his pace.
  7. Looking forward to Havertz, Mount, Werner already. Hoping that will be the three. Havertz has played himself into the team. Mount obviously will be back and Werner is still contributing despite the lack of goals and all three will be suitable players for the pressing game Leeds like to play.
  8. Another game where we have dominated but also looking brilliant in attack. Havertz best game in a Chelsea shirt, league wise. Was top class. Played a major part in both goals. Christensen, another dominant performance. Another clean sheet. Everton were so bad but I think it is one of the games where we were just too goo and could not handle our dominance. Everton have been really good going into today's game but we did not give them a sniff. Werner being really unlucky again. Just feels scoring wise he is cursed, but he is really contributing and I like him in the team. Whole team was brilliant. Jorginho in the middle of the park controlled that game. I look at our fixtures and on paper the only game really you expect us to lose is City, so I firmly expect us to get top 4. Well done Tuchel, well done players 👏🏾
  9. Havertz looks good! Hopefully can keep it up.
  10. I saw your reputation and saw it was quite high for your post count, that is why I could never tell whether you were trolling or not, however I have just seen your profile picture now. I know the definite answer now... 🖕🏾
  11. Yes, but I am just making the point that Lamps has proven he will change when he feels necessary and sometimes more than the one sub. Most managers, I would say 9/10 rarely will change a player at half time if their team is not winning. Tuchel obviously does things a bit earlier, which I do like, but just pointing out that when Lmaps thought things were going really bad, albeit losing he made changes and sometimes changed formation.
  12. Honestly bro, that is not true. Arsenal this season he hooked off Werner and Kovacic at H/T. This season against WBA, he took off Alonso and Kovacic at H/T and his changes paid off. Even last season against Arsenal when we won 2-1 at Emirates, he took off Emerson just before the 35th minute and brought on Jorginho because we were getting dominated and that changed the game. Also took off Tomori and put Lamptey on. The changes worked brilliantly. Yes, Tuchel is more of a tactician but let's not just paint out that Lamps was some naive manager who just did not bother to make changes, because he did.
  13. Well the squad we had last season, I saw no chance of us even getting top 4. I don't think most managers would of done better with that squad. Yes I do think he done brilliantly. No Hazard. People may mock Luiz, however we sold our most experienced defender to a rival and finished well clear of them in the end. We went with our front three last season with Barkley, Pedro and Abraham. LOL. Pulisic then got a run and often him, Willian were with Abraham. The defence was a shambles. Of course he done a brilliant job. Lamps got the best out of the squad we had and yes we done very well. That is why he was on the list of nominations for manager of the year, albeit it went to Klopp deservedly, but the fact he had a nomination reflects the job he did with the task on hand. Considering no players bought and juggling cup competitions with Europe, yes he did brilliant.
  14. Yeah, yeah, yeah. That is a easy way to get out of it. We were in crisis! Losing Hazard and not being able to buy players. Compare the quality of our squad now with last season and whatever the inconsistencies of other teams, Lamps did brilliant. The money being spent and the competition increasing in the league, it is no surprise to see the points tally being not as high as usual for the 4th placed team.
  15. Yes, but you are coming across as a bit of a troll. You say you are entitled to your opinion, yet when Jason warned you, you acknowledged it and now are continuing with the repeated abuse again. Why does every point you make about Tuchel have to compare to Lampard. BTW, some P.E teacher he must of been if he guided us to CL footy last season right? ...
  16. You are actually starting to get irritating now. You were already warned once by @Jason and you acknowledged the warning and then you continue with your childish insults. Yes, he looked a little bit out his depth but please remember this is a legend we are talking about who still guided us into the Champions League with a transfer ban Think he is just trying to wind people up. He can't help it. Ohh and just got another notification with another reply from him, no doubt an insult.
  17. Possibly. There both very selfish sometimes, especially Salah.
  18. I been saying the exact same thing for time. The same thing happened against Sheffield United too. Mane deliberately stayed on his feet which was odd and a penalty was not given. Sometimes having two players trying to outscore each other can work against you. There have been several occasions where both have avoided passing to each other and gone for personal glory.
  19. A lot of people were concerned when they saw Jorginho in the lineup, especially against Liverpool's press but he was magnificent. Controlled the game. Christensen and Mount brilliant once again too. Christensen and Jorginho were written off by a lot fans throughout the season, especially Christensen. He was suuperb and did not have Thiago Silva alongside him. We did not give them a sniff and was also brilliant. Delighted and bar Man City, we have played all the 'major teams' away from home now which is a bonus.
  20. Credit due. Criticized the style of football but tonight he got it spot on. From defence to attack, he completely done a number on Klopp and we looked good too. Brilliant win. Well done Tuchel.
  21. With us 1-0 up, honestly would like to see Puli come on for Ziyech for counter attack and this Liverpool defence look frightened of pace.
  22. Either way, there are games under Tuchel we should be winning. Wolves at home, we should have won. Southampton away who are in terrible form we dropped points too as well. Next 2 games is going to be really vital.
  23. I get he has not had enough time to work with team etc, hence he is not over-eager to change up things too much, but honestly need to see it a bit more bite in attack. There are matches this season, today included where due to the pragmatic approach it has cost us 3 points. Wolves, Southampton we should have won but I think TT choices cost us the win. Now Everton have it in their hands and on a PPG approach, they would be above us, assuming they win. Villa too. Liverpool in front now. There is not that much games left also. I like the confidence in possession and the players look a lot more assured defensively, but offensively still lacking bite.
  24. At start of second half, the cameras clearly showed him with strapping around his knee.
