POST-MATCH DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS



2014/15 Pre-Season Friendly Match 2
19th July, Saturday, 2014
Kingsmeadow
15:00 Kick Off (UK time)

[Miguelito 459]

I'm not sure if it actually counts as 3 assists for baker. The Salah goal, he hit it against a defender and then shot it again and finished it. So it wasn't directly from the pass of baker.

It was an absolutely brilliant ball and I wish that it would count as an assist though.

He's still the clear Man of the Match for me

Baker was awesome .

[Chelsea? 892]

if anyone deserves a first team look its baker. better crosser than our entire first team. He's also a very creative. Good 2nd half for Salah

[edetarod 2,155]

100% record of the season continues...

Who need Costa when we have JT

We need Costa.

Who need Lukaku, we have Ivan

[The only place to be 11,313]

Is Lewis Baker better at picking out a pass than Oscar already?

And I asked it in the main thread but what exactly is Van Ginkel's game? Not an exceptionally good passer, not that strong defensively, not shown himself to be a goal threat yet (although had that in the Dutch league), looks skittish most of the time...what's he actually do better than say John Swift?

Good comeback.

MVG was disappointing for me, but not going to jump into any conclusions since he's still recovering from injury. Might need a loan though to play more regularly.

Baker was good just like in the last game, he knows how to pick a pass.

All in all a good test against a bus; which highlighted just how crucial set-pieces are, especially when we have so many good in the air.

Need to stop Willian and Hazard from taking wasting them, and let Oscar/Fabregas do.

[Parky 739]

Not bad to get a win when 2-0 down in the second half..

I like having Oriel and Van Ginkel back. Gives us plenty of options and cover.

[Chelsea Buzz 487]

JT and Ivanovic up front are unstoppable

Ready for the regulars to begin trickling into the lineup as we go along with these friendlies. Just four more weeks til its for real.

Come on you Chelsea! :blue scalf:
