communicate 2,703 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 He need to run harder, yes he is slow but he need to run harder. And no, we cannot play Emerson. We play with only 3 tall players with Hazard as striker. Even barca play with 3 tall player playing in less physical league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liverpool and City have no issues with having a relatively small starting XI. For Liverpool only their CBs + Fabinho if he starts are aerial threats. For City it is literally just their CBs as aerial threats. I don’t think we lose that much defensively if we lose Alonso, Emerson has actually been quite strong positionally for aerial balls in an admittedly small sample size. For attacking set pieces Alonso is one of our players with a clear role in our routines, but hey, Emerson also brings many things to the team Alonso doesn’t in other areas.

It is a double edged sword. We completely dominated the air when playing City and won every header in their area. But City rarely concede set pieces and always prevent crosses, so it is really the queston if you can afford to play so many short players who of course tend to be better on the ball or more agile. That being said i am 100% sure that height is not the reasonw hy Emerson is not selected. I think, even if we had Barkley/RLC and Morata/Giroud playing we would also have Alonso starting like vs Fulham or Wolves. He picks Alonso because he thinks he is a better player than Emerson, which again shows how deluded Sarri is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good post until this bit. One can either think Conte, sarri, and most coaches employed by Chelsea are deluded, or that there is a minority here on this site who are completely deluded - not my choice of words. another puzzlement is how do these folks, who just “know” (literal meaning of being deluded) that Emerson is so much better when we hardly seen him play?! And especially we hardly seen him play against stronger opposition - Alonso always plays against them. asking for more minutes for Emerson is great and makes sense. But calling a manager deluded because of his starting choices is just bizarre. Tomo and 0007 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think he is deluded, I think Emerson is simply not good enough to bench the turgid Alonso (which a prori makes Emerson shit) We drastically need an upgrade at LB! Hello Chilwell (or if we can still keep 8 HG's without him, hello Firpo or hello Telles). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Junior Firpo is only an inch and half shorter than Alonso, a far better athlete, massively higher vertical leap and pace, and a better defender. Sign him up and take the option away from Sarri. Firpo can also give CB, LMF and RW cover. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It doesn't say a lot for the fitness of our squad if they are fatigued already, for the most part this season Sarri has been going from team A in the League at weekends to team B in the Europa/LC in midweeks. The only two players who have featured excessively are Willian and Pedro. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't think it is a too grave case of exhaustion as they only had to stand a few matches back to back recently but there are warnign signs and Sarri should see them early also because we have so much mediocrity in depth, rotating will not make much of a difference.
