Yeboii

A week away

You only show up here when KdB has a great game, with terrible banter, lol

As it should be. Nobody cares about him anymore here. It is a pity we sold him for peanuts, but we still have 2 prems after he left and he hasn't won anything. Really good player. However, there are plenty of them around.

I want Willian out of the team. He does nothing players like Musonda, Kenedy or even Hudson-Odoi couldn't do tbh. Dribbles it back all the way to the defence, dribbles it to a safe area for the opposition and stands still, loses the ball easily etc. He doesn't even score his trademark free-kicks or wondergoals anymore. He is also getting older so I guess January or next summer is the best time to sell him. Christensen is really good. I did not expect him to become this great already! Saw how Pep was talking to him after the match. Probably praising his performance, but if he is trying to suggest a move to City he can fuck right off! I'm not even sure I would bench him for Luiz next game. Hopefully Morata is ok. He obviously was a big part of the tactics Conte had ready, but Conte really should have stuck with the same tactics and brought a like-for-like sub with Michy. Terrible match for us, but could have been so much more different!

Nope

You're slipping mate!

Reminds me of Gunnar Nelson, the UFC fighter. Calm, underrated, Nordic etc...

Must be something they train very well. Nearly every player can play great long passes.

Mancienne

Oh, I see. How bad for him :/ Also I thought I was on the match thread

Musonda and Kenedy start. Ampadu, Sterling and Clarke-Salter on the bench. Kyle Scott nowhere to be seen.

Can't see how adamant Conte is one how bad he is on the ball. He was really impressive and always looking forward. I don't think he ruined even one move in 45 mins! Like him a lot, but he has to keep an eye on all the fouls.

Everton payed big for him and gave him a second chance after he didn't believe in himself at Chelsea.

Yeah he has been a promising player for quite some time actually. Finally realizing his potential at Red Bull Salzburg so he might become very good in 2 seasons.

They have a few good players. I think they still have Dzagoev. That guy should really have left to a big team when he still had the age to improve. Also, Dzagoev has said he is a Chelsea fan

I think both the loan of Ruben and Tammy were good ideas but the situation has changed at both clubs. De Boers way of playing was good for Ruben, but he has left. Sigurdsson would have had a field day with Tammy up front, but he has left.

They beat FC Kobenhavn to get to the group stage. That is a very decent team. The best in Denmark if I remember correctly. Don't underestimate Qarabag as some team we will beat with 8 goals or something!

Oh if only he was home-grown :/

Would probably have gotten another one if not for the BLATANT Maguire hand ball!

I would guess its bad management.

Like with Kurt Zouma, we have seen that Conte does not a ACL injury lightly. Zouma barely played and that would also become the case with Baba. If I remember correctly though, he can still play cup matches even if he is not on the PL list.

His foul throws are just weird. How can you be a pro footballer and not know how to take a throw in???? His crossing is on and off, but his shooting has been consistently bad. He always seems to try the same shot when he really has a scoring chance (sidefoot shot) and it usually goes straight to the keeper.

Farewell Loic and thanks

True. It's the only thing that has really disappointed me after he has been changed into a WB.
