Like against ManUtd?

 

Getting blown away by Arsenal who've fucking copied our formation. Shambles. This is more embarrassing than that ear washing we got at the Emirates.

i get you, really embarassing from the team so far, that early goal messed with the  players minds, Cesc should have started from the start, the fact is we are only down 1-0 thankfully, if we can score an equalizer early in the 2nd half, it can be a huge boost for the team, lets see what conte and the players will do for the 2nd half, time for the real Chelsea to show up, lets calm our nerves, this is the wake up call the team needed. Cheers and lets support the team

I've seen nothing in the first half that gives any hope for that equalizer.

 

All in Conte's hands now.

he will believe me, he saw what we all saw and it was crap.

His weakness so far is slow reaction. He always wait for 70th min, good or bad, lose win or draw.

We don't have enough players with good 1st-touches. If we did, we'd be able to fling it around with a lot more certainty, and move forward a lot more quickly, nevermind exploiting counter-attacks. Kante/Matic/Costa/Alonso/Moses/Cahill/and maybe even Pedro. How can a side have so many technically inferior players? How can we expect anything more from our players? It's a miracle what we achieved this season.

It's incredible what Conte has achieved with this type of technical deficiencies. When Courtois has the ball, he passes to Azpi, because luiz is marked by welbeck, Azpi passes to Moses, Moses is pressed along with Azpi and we kick the ball up field to costa who never jumps for any ball.

We are so so bad against pressing, so so bad. 

This is why we need to improve on the back 3, it requires passing out from the back or a striker who can jump to win those aerial balls and help us up the field. 

Conte always had Pelle for Italy who knew the meeting of hold up football to get the team up the pitch, we don't. So when we play the ball up, we lose it again because costa can't jump to save his life. 

Hazard too can't shoot, if he isn't touching the ball for 30 minutes, he doesn't care and just accepts it, when he is near the box he doesn't want to shoot (2 times today) He needs to learn how to make use of all that world class talent. 

Getting nainggolan is a priority, we can't keep playing Matic against big teams when he turns into a lumbersome dunce under the slightest pressure.

Another problem is Alonso, the only big match he ever played well for us is against arsenal in February. His centerback speed is such a disadvantage against big teams that press.

Conte has performed miracles with this team honestly. But if we think we don't need to develop the back 5, then we will be destroyed in Europe
