And the only way to counter this with the current squad is to play the most technical centrebacks. Unfortunately Luiz is suspended but there's no reason to play Cahill. Azpi-Christensen-Rudiger would be much more capable of dealing with that relentless pressing.

 

 

Unless Moses was half dead, I don't understand why Cahill is playing. People are shitting on Willian but how bad has Cahill been? He looks like a blumbering fool out there. He has no skill set whatsoever to deal with a high press.

i guess Michy will have to come on at some point no? we have no reference up top, what will it do to Michy´s confidence when Conte prefers to sub Morata for William, specially after scoring the winner against Atletico

[FabHazard 655]

Our defenders are not confident on the ball...Cahill is killing our build up play...They are getting all the  space  just infront of our wingbacks..Conte needs to go on offensive..He should tell our defense to play more high line

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Also, see how City presses us at goalkicks. Why can't we do likewise. We are supposed to have the more robust midfield, right? It's the mentality and a negative approach by Conte. Low block for 40 mins and a mediocre attempt at a high press for 5 mins only.

High press is a legitimate tactic for us as well I'm sure some of you know that and I'm sure Conte knows. 

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

I want to see us PRESS these cunts from goalkicks.

[Milan 17,854]

Come on boys! At least fight for the shirt!

[Pizy 18,368]

Abysmal start to the 2nd half here...

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

They are just teeing off on us now.

[CHOULO19 24,332]

This gon be a looooooong half... 

[Milan 17,854]

Are we playing with 10 men again? It certainly feels like that is the case.

[MrExcalibur100 7,124]

Fantastic from Christensen just now. More positivity and ambition. 

[Sir Mikel OBE 4,920]

I don't know what Conte was thinking with that sub. Surely Pedro is the false 9 if we are going to try to attack right?

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Christensen is going to be such an amazing player. And he already is

[FabHazard 655]

So negative

[Milan 17,854]

Just now, FabHazard said:

So negative

Mourinho would be proud.

[Pizy 18,368]

We are all over the shop and can't do a thing going forward.

[The Mak 4,459]

Willian doing his best to convince us that he should have been sold to United during the summer.
