Tammmyyyyy!!!!1

He was misplacing passes left right and centre. Thank goodness he made the right decision there. I hope Lamps points out to him to look up when he's on the ball like all top midfielders do, that alone can improve his game massively imo

We have a striker!!!! Tammyyy!!!!

Barkely is such a poor player, have no idea how he's a chelsea level player

He was average at best. He has no left foot and cannot run with the ball without looking down at the ground all the time. This makes him miss loads of chances to make the correct passing option and take too many touches of the ball before he releases it.

Let him start playing preferably after the international break. We wouldn't want him to have any injury scare again. We have many wingers to play till he returns fully

Lampard on Tammy Abraham "I supported Tammy over the online abuse. I did it out loud and I did it behind the scenes. I supported him on that as much as I can and in terms of playing, hopefully he will see my belief in him from the fact he is playing and hopefully from the fact I want to do extra shooting with him daily, every type of finishing and the first one today was top drawer. That comes from work on the training ground. Imagine Lampard training someone on shooting, brilliant.

If we don't get 6 points from those two, the pressure will come on Lamps

I just want a win, don't care how we get it done

We need a Hard stone cold finisher up front and a Proper right fullback (quick, can cross and defend).

It was different when we had Hazard that would guarantee 15 goals every season. But now im looking at our squad as a whole and i don't know who can score 15-20 goals. It's a big problem

He was so slow to see runners and give a lot of late passes when he should have been quicker. He takes too long to control the ball and doesn't look up for the next options before receiving the pass (Something all top midfielders do). But at the same time he was central to our attack as he had a lot of touches of the ball in the first half. Immediately he went off, we forgot how to attack. He's a dilemma

After looking at our preseason games and now Manutd game, we have a lack of finishers in our attack. Batshuayi is our best finisher and should be starting every game. If we managed to score one of our many chances in the first half, we wouldn't have lost that way. Goals change games, forget about the tippy tappy football, we need our best finisher upfront from now on.

Our new No. 10

But we'll see Hazard's true worth now since he's no longer playing for a defensive chelsea, in a tough tackling premier league with average players like willian. He has no excuse now not to show us what hes got. People were putting him just below Messi and Ronaldo. On par with the likes of Neymar, Lewandoski, Suarez and co. We'll see about that now

The guy is already under immense pressure from fans just from this preseason. No more supporters to gloss over average performances for him especially if he doesn't score or assist on top of an average outing. He's in for it. The usual getting fat before preseason and getting fit as the season goes doesn't cut it, those guys have no patience. They've thrown things at bale, booed ozil and even Ronaldo.

I've always leaned towards Neymar in the past, and I still think he is. I value goals immensely and Neymar beats Hazard in this category by far both internationally and club level. But Neymar seems injury prone now which is a huge minus. I completely disagree that Hazard is way ahead of Neymar in dribbling. Neymar is in the same league as Hazard in dribbling, Hazard is just marginally better.

Im very excited at the prospect of Neymar joining Barcelona. If it happens, we can end this debate on who is better between Hazard and Neymar. No more "Chelsea is defensive" "Hazard is the only star" "Hazard is tackled/fouled more without cards in the EPL" excuses. We will know who is better once and for all.

But this is what chelsea fans want and what they deserve. They booed Sarri during matches, "Fk sarri ball" chants were flying around the bridge. His substitutions were booed no space to breathe, even though he was better than Arsenal, Manutd and Tottenham without a proper preseason. He was even better than Guardiola in his first season in England. So I say scrap entertaining football, lets go back to dogged, pragmatic, physical football that we all love. Allegri is the perfect fit for that.
