🏴󠁧󠁢󠁥󠁮󠁧󠁿 Frank Lampard

Christensen fucked the game. Zyech, Pulisic and Silva out. His only mistake is his love for Mount. Other than that I dont know why you guys are mad.

Totally agree.

Lampard did really good today. Was very impressed by our first 44 minutes and then game over. I know most Chelsea fans do not care about the first 44 minutes, but Liverpool was not able to break us. AC then cost us the game. Winning with 10 men against Liverpool when Jorginho misses also a penalty and Kepa makes another mistake is very hard. I know, some Chelsea fans probably still expected us to win regardless lol

And like clockwork, Lampard blaming the red

Early days and no pre-season, so I will give FL till christmas, if the eye test cannot confirm progress then go all in for Poch before someone like udt grab him.

Lampard is surely smart enough to realize that without that Kepa mistake, that penalty would not happen either.

Caballero is worse. Alonso is better than both Emerson and Azpi playing as LB.

Caballero isn't worse give your head a wobble. Azpi gives you aggression, Alonso gives you nothing.

I mean...
 

He is right though. Our first 44 minutes against Pool were very good. Our complete match against brighton was horrific. I am also much happier with the first 44 minutes than with our last match against Brighton.

You guys should also adjust your expectations. We signed Havertz, instead of Thiago Alcântara. I find really amusing that people were acting as we became PL contenders because of Havertz. Quality player, but not a world beater as many of you are trying to picture.

He was certainly advertised as a world beater....

Liverpool had Fabinho at the back and TAA continuing to be suspect. Not to mention VVD looking off form.
 

Can’t understand those defending this shithousery. 

[prehuman 119]

It’s good to see Lampard take on his responsibilities, envision his mistakes and point out solutions, the way a leader defends his players.

This goes from bad to worse.

The danger of appointing legendary players to the position of coach is not worth the risk this entails.

What we're in for.

The problem is, Lampard is basically opening a can of worms with that statement. It's a lot of ifs and buts. And heck, we didn't even score the penalty!

I didn't necessarily mind the counter attacking approach for today but what I didn't like was the passiveness of it. Sure, we limited Liverpool defensively but offensively, we were pathetic. We didn't look like we had a clue on how to counter attack apart from hoping Werner did something. If we were Christian Pulisic FC after the restart last season, then we are pretty much Timo Werner FC at the moment. Also, Havertz upfront? Fine...but launching long balls for him to win against Van Dijk and co...really?

What's Lampard said tonight to kick dust on another shite showing?

[Vesper 31,087]

if Lamps shits out

one name needs to be at the top of the list

Julian Nagelsmann

plus, we have a small German core already, and if we move for Zakaria or another Budesliga player or players, boom

I am NOT new to this either

been saying to hire him since it was clear Conte was leaving

Him or Poch for me if FL dont last the season....make no mistake Poch could do damage with us.

Count me one, I also think for the first 44 mins we played much better than the Brighton game and Havertz improved his plays quite a lot with linkups, passes and runs into space. IIRC we have more chances than the scums to make attempts in the first half.

The minute he became available to Chelsea was the moment for expectations to be recalibrated and, at the very least, for the replacing of highlights videos with all touches ones.

I like Kai. I'm glad we have him. He can drift and he can loose possession but he can also be devastating. If and when we get more fluent, and especially when we get Hakim and Chris into the team, we'll create opportunities for him to hurt opponents. Remember, Eden had plenty of games where nothing was happening for him.

Poch is 2nd on the list

do not really have a 3rd, as the club is not built for Simeone

[Superblue 6,372]

I've no problem with the tactics in the first half. How many times have people on this forum complained that we are far too open and no consideration on defending last season. You only have to look at the Anfield game last season when we were 3 goals down within an hour.

We contained pretty well, and the extra protection with a 3 man midfield was a good decision. I think the only mistake was probably not starting with Giroud who would have been a better focal point and target to hit with this tactic. I feel if we could stay well in the game with 15-20 minutes to go, I think Lampard would have then opened up a bit more. Ironically we created a couple of chances late on like this with just 10 men. 

The issue is that the tactic looks horrific now because we played really defensively in the first half and then were always going to struggle with 10 in the second half. So statistically it looks like we've taken an absolute battering throughout the game.

I think there was an element of maturity about how we did set up today and ultimately we've had go against us a red card, a goalkeeping mistake and a missed penalty. 

Also this idea that the defence hasn't been considered this summer is nonsensical. We've brought a new left back, centre back and goalkeeper, it's just back luck that none are available to play yet.

Nagelsmann is the man, no doubt about it.

It was significant moment in the game and bad odds calculation by Andreas. Ten minutes to go, ok, you commit that foul but a minute before half-time, you take your chances on Mane missing.
