Stats

Our present and future is so exciting. I know there are some doubts with people over Chilwell but I really like him and think he is only going to get better. We buy him and James and Chillwell is set for the near decade. Gilmour, Kovacic both at a good age. Ziyech at a good age then we have Mount, Hudson-Odoi, Pulisic, Werner and Abraham. Boga looks unlikely but say he came you can add him to the equation. A lot of people are going to say Werner went to us because of the money, but looking at it, we have such an exciting project. Young manager who is setting his mark on the game and the potential in the team is crazy. Exciting moments.

Not youth, the report doesn't say that. But a good football age to have Ziyech.

Ziyech is the best player in the Erediviisie. To get him at the price we did was fantastic. He is a quality player and also has lit up the Champions League also. Your last sentence, is like saying if we bought Messi it does not count as we have not seen him in a Chelsea shirt. It counts, because we got him for a bargain fee in this market before the pandemic and his stats are brilliant and on the signs of it looks really good business.

Yes but his stats in the league before the game was 14 league goals and 13 league assists. That is brilliant either way. They drew with Dortmund in the reverse fixture and Bayern only beat them 3-2 in both home and away fixtures. They are decent.

Price just went up for Sancho. 17 league goals and 16 league assists. That is bloody fantastic. Love the tribute to George Floyd!

Whenever we are linked with other wingers, I just keep thinking why not just get Boga...

Football is about business now. They sold Sanchez to United remember and have had a history for doing this. Ideally, Arsenal would rather sell him to team abroad but if he wants to stay in England, they will reluctantly sell.

It is a no-brainer really. In this day in the market, his value is well over £30m. Getting him at the reported price is a bargain. He has live dup to his potential and is only getting better.

Unless we are playing one of the 'big teams', it generally is a blessing in disguise. I am more in a hurry to see Kovacic back.

Needed and deserved that goal. He has really improved in recent matches, but the goal was missing. He got that today and had another very good game before he went off.

I think this game and the Liverpool game proves this. He was superb. His physical strength is amazing too. So much fans have written him off, but like we have seen before with this forum and general fans, people will start realizing keep writing of our own players as 'shit' and 'useless' is far-fetched and knee-jerk. Thought he was best player on the pitch today.

Wow. I am shocked and amazed. Best performance this season with an injury hit squad. The players who stood out today have bene getting a lot of slack from fans this season too. Barkley, Mount, Willian etc... they were all brilliant. Gilmour again was top class. Clean sheet nice too. My fears before the weekend was genuinely dropping out the top 4 as I was fearing the worst this game, especially not knowing if Willian would make it or not and the difference he made was big. I mean so far best possible outcome. Wolves, Spurs dropping points and us winning. Perfect outcome will be for City to beat United. I can understand why the sky sports pundits gave Gilmour MOTM, but personally would have given it to Barkley. He ran the show all game. Made 2 assists.1 of them the passes of the season. Not just that, in a position where we missed our top three CM in pecking order in Jorginho, Kovacic and Kante, he stepped up and looked at home. I actually think the CM role is his best position. He roams from that position but is also physically dominant too and it is difficult for opponents to muscle him off the ball. The three games I have seen him in that position against Burnley, Liverpool and today, he has been brilliant. He gets my MOTM He has received so much flack from supporters too and it is good to see him really improving. Hopefully he keeps it up because he has the ability.

Yep. Not getting complacent. Hope we do not see a repeat of what happened against Sheffield United. Fingers crossed. Next goal is crucial.

Scary to think that if Willian is inured, Batshuayi will be the only senior attacker who will be on the bench. RLC may be forced into playing a part. Willian is not everyone's favourite but it is a must he is fit tomorrow. Injuries are actually getting worrying.

I know there was a bit of sarcasm there, but let's face it, he was brilliant. Those social media stats will not be exaggerated. He was outstanding.

Players are dropping like flies. Injuries are getting really worrying. I hope Kovacic is fine for weekend because, once again he had been dominating the game.

We got the ban overturned Greavsie. We just chose not to buy anyone in January, which is hitting us hard right now.

By next week Saturday evening, I expect them to be in 4th position. Cannot deny I am delighted seeing Spurs lose again though.

You do make me laugh

Kovacic was our best player by far once again. Actually thought he had a brilliant game and did not deserve to be on a team who got thumped in the end. Mount also was decent as well. We were just up against a different animal tonight. That Alphonso Davies is lethal. Brilliant in defence and attack. We will learn and hopefully us not being in European competition gives un an edge to just focus on top 4 and come back stronger in the Champions League next season with a better squad.

Kovacic is brilliant. Our best midfielder. Yes, he is!

Thought Mount was brilliant today. Looking more himself now. Made a brilliant assist against United which was ruled out because of the margin error bullshit with VAR. Also today done that fantastic burst of run and made that pass for Abraham which should have gone in. People have been writing him off in recent weeks. Hopefully people give him some credit now. Reece James again looks so dominant. Love watching him. Words can't describe how angry I would have got if Spurs equalized. Would of been criminal with Le Celso staying on the pitch. Farce. That David Coote (the VAR decision maker) should be sacked and never be able to analyze a game again. Shocking. The fact that even the officials at Stockley Park had to make a statement to say the decision was wrong is a first. Awful; awful decision and you have to beg the question... did he not recommend a red because he wanted an exciting game or he has some other ulterior motive. Never seen such a shocking decision with VAR. Glenn Hoddle is absolute biased twat as well. I don't think he should be allowed to commentate on Spurs games. He is extremely biased. Can't believe he defender Le Celso not being sent off and saying it was accidental. Funny that when his co-pundit announced that officials from Stockley Park got it wrong, he stayed quiet on the matter. Idiot. Anyway happy for the 3 points. Big, big win.

From Stockley Park: They admitted Le Celso should have been sent off. What a farce VAR is. Laughable

And boy he has. Has looked like he has been part of that Leipzig defence for years. Has looked comfortable in possession, been confident in bringing the ball out and has marshalled the defence well along with his fellow defenders. Hopefully this will earn more starts.

Mount looked very positive when he came on. James and Kovacic also had good games. The only three who come out with positives from tonight for me.
