Magic Lamps

Thank god that friend has won the Champions leauge in contrast to the poor fuck hazard. Someone inform the poor guy where the next primark is to buy white shirts

What was he thinking when parrying the ball into Everton players feet Tibo-style? I thought that bad trait had gone. Ok then pen is always a difficult save and the rebound can be awkward especially for badly placed shots but header from the corner was so soft, eh could have easily caught it.

Azpi or Puyol vs Drogba. Neither. Puyol would either go to ground pretend a head injury or foul on purpose knowing the corrupted ref would not give a penalty. Cannavaro was not physical either but he would have gone under in todays PL for sure. But I get the point. Azpi is not a cb in a back 2. He was in a back 3 but still got exposed from time to time. Now he is just a stand-in RB which is really really sad but he has regressed so much. He used to have a decent bit of pace but now he lost that it becomes obvious that his positioning is actually not as good as we thought. I am sure he will still work on that but we should not rely on it. HIs tackling is still superb and I actually don't mind his crossing but for sure he is no world class anymore. But if he can teach Reece James his timing and defensive cover runs we will be fine.

Obviously Piatek would have been the way better move as almost everyone here said. But sure Sarri wanted his Higuain and like everyone of Sarri's ideas, an idea from yesterday.. Not that he is a bad player. Just so much worse then everything else we could have had if the board would have one bit of sense and not trust this fraud. Higuains movement has been absolutely sublime tbf even vs Everton. It is just everything else that has been shit, mainly his mobility and finishing. That is why I hope he gets at least one of the games vs Prague who are error-prone defensively so he can score a few and get in the groove again. How can lack match sharpness tho? he has been training with the team for 2 months and always gets midweek off. he should be fresh as fuck. He is 31 thats still ok for a striker, Drogs had his best season aged 32. I just hope that if we can keep him next season, he has one good year left in the tank cos everything will depend on it. I miss the times of having a world class striker more than ever because we do not even have a world class goal-scoring midfielder.

I just hope if we really call tiem on the SArri experiment, that the efforts to play posession football are over for good and they don't hire another "attacking" manager ever again. That is not the Chelsea way. We will never go to the Etihad and tear City apart with intricate passing in the next decade or so. But City are actually only 2 world class fullbacks better than the side we ripped apart with our counter attacks 2 years ago. The players are herd of cows that need a resolute man to whip them in a sensible direction and they will trample things down. Right now they are just wandering around aimlessly bc no one buys into Sarri's out-dated ideas. If we really replace the fraud with Holland I really got no clue what will happen. I read that Holland is well respected at the club and he probably is one of the most decorated assistant managers in English football but his only season in a senior team as first manager came at Crewe Alexandra, one of the worst pro clubs in English football and was hardly spectacular.

We will win this, then everyone will go back to saying, yeah lets keep Sarri, we looked alright when in truth we will have scrapped a result like every time we won under Sarri since September. He is a shit coach and I will have no joy in any of our games until he is gone or our players grow some, cos even if we play decent enough I know it is just a flash in the pan or the opposition is shit. I want the fraud gone at least as much as i wanted avb and mourinho v2 gone who were both probably better managers even though yesterday's men with yesterday's football all the same. But actually Sarri is more like Avram Grant, just some random old fart doing Romans bidding + the Jorginho detour. Grant had the advantage that he had one of the best and incorruptible squads in Premier League history which basically trained itself, Sarri has a squad of mostly average fair-weather players. Still he is not paying the price and that is probably the most infuriating. Carlo lost his job for just losing out to SAFs excellently drilled gun dogs after having had his best players injured for half the season, Conte for not putting up with the shit the board was giving him (albeit way too publicly). Sarri did not even deservedly get the kick when he set us up to lose 6-0 at the Etihad. Actually they should have never hired him and I warned them not to. Then they should have seen it the way we got battered by Tottenham, but ok can be a one off but the one time they finally should have seen th light was the capitulation at Arsenal. That was when to fucking pul lthe trigger. He shifted the blame to the players, the last resort, when in fact it was his fault not to prepare them better. Yes the player are sheeps who need a leader. Then be the leader godamn. Our title capitulation in 2015 should have been the final piece of evidence that these players never take responsibility. So someone has to. Yes the players are shit but the right manager still can whip them to the odd title. But you could put Sarri in charge of ManCity and he would win fuck all.

He actually was a mediocre player back then and we got milked because they were in a strong position and we were desperate and dumb enough not to look for better options which were available back then. Even more stupid that we bought him in the same year we let go of Filipe Luis and Ryan Bertrand, two vastly superior players. No idea why the board were so damn retarded even for their standards.

why do you think so? I think the loan system has been one of the few things the board did ok at. It is a steady stream of income. Loan shit players until they maximize their value and then sell them amassing profit. Sure they fuck it up often enough and sell to late or don't prolong the contracts early enough but in principle exploiting the loan system and ambitious players as cash-cows is a brilliant concept.

Roman will not sell Chelsea as the club is a means to protect his assets.

Every week the same shit. Absolutely sick of Sarris presictable medieval tactics. We will win do fuck all with him in charge all season and everyone knows that but when we win with 5 Kiev people here go on mimimi it's not too bad. He is still a shot coach and should piss off asap.

Wolves game reminds me of old 2004to2009 Chelsea without drogs. A not of power play two players on the wings, shots from distance, super solid at the back with low block

me2 but lacks power. he goes to ground easily and his shots are youth level in terms of power. i hope he puts on some muscle and improves his shooting technique. dortmund still won this tho ,resu scoring a brilliant winner

i am rooting for wolves. they have been most convincing in this competition so far performance-wise

omg i think that has to be the most inefficient performance in front of goal i have ever seen from a player. 4 great chances missed, 2 empty goals and a couple of squandered decisions on the counter attack.

not for the city and utd games i guess, what a coincidence

i thought they had VAR in FA cup. 4th open goal miss for dortmudn in a row now btw, not even us are that bad

you have to say that city do not surrender when going 2-0 down. we would have just faltered.

Pep teams always luck falling in their favour. NO idea why everyone keeps fawning over the manipulative liar btw dortmunds misses are even worse atm Pulisic just missed 3 sitters in a row^^

Collecting loan fees

Rotating him with Giroud is exactly what he is doing. This was vs kiev so not overestimate the performamce. But Sarri needs to be able to abandon his 433 and bring ina second striker when we are chasing the game. Absolutely ridiculous he only makes like for like changes. Shit coach

In his season out on loan at Enschede when he was 19/20 he carried them to their only ever Eredivisie championship to this day with 12 goals from midfield. I beleived he was the real deal, even wathcing some Enschede games and was mad when the board sold him for 5m to Fener. Turned out he did fuck all the rest of his career and that season probably remains his best^^ The first academy graduateI completely overestimated...

wohooo what a turnaround by Prague, would not have believeed it. poor from sevilal tho. Happy for Chelsea legend Miroslav Stoch ^^

and he also played Kante and Rüdiger. Utter clueless selection once again. He could have easily given another youngster the chance. Sarri is not only bad for the present but also a catastrophe for the future of the club with the lack of squad development.

Clueless coach playing Rüdiger and Kante for most of an already won game. 5-0 vs second rate competition should not paper over the cracks. Sarri has to go asap. I liked RLC and CHO's performances tho. Sad they will be back to the bench next game for sure.

looks like the kid is having a nice swansong. will be even more valuable when we sell him in summer.
