quickpassnmove 924 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Other than getting some better forwards, it would nice to see Zappa combine with Hazard more this season. I'm glad Ampadu got playtime today, but this match was a woeful exhibit of chelsea's attack. Not Batshuayi's fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

-Kaplan- 410 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Cahill fell down like 7 times during the development of the goal. God that was awful defending from us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LAM09 7,051 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Just got over the line. Our CB's to blame for that goal Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,906 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 What a dreadful 2nd half that was! We just took our foot completely off the gas and coasted. Oh, well. A win and good minutes for Drinkwater, Ampadu, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cosmicway 1,333 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Interesting little affair. I don't understand why our defense became so fidgety in the second half - we even let one in. In the first half Everton were totally harmless and the same was true of Watford. Watford did score a fluke in the 46th minute but apart from that they were harmless in the first half. Then in the second half they nearly scored four against us. The same picture tonight and I wonder what is the explanation. Both Everton and Watford had good reason to try and press us in the first half but they just could n't. Then in the second halves it was different. Caballero had to make some Coutrtois ++ saves.

Jase 43,479 Posted October 25, 2017 Author Share Posted October 25, 2017 Performance was meh but good win, I guess. Another game we'll have to contend with in December and there are already loads of league games that month! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
El P. 1,354 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 No much positives from this game. Conte wanted some players to show that they can be counted on - Musonda and Ampadu weren't good at all, Drinkwater and Kenedy were average, Rudy and Christy a bit better. Willian continued with his "form" from this season. Caballero, Zappacosta and to some extent Bats were the only positives from the match for me.

jernej93 569 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Drinkwater has to be ahead of Fabregas in pecking order He is machine in midfield with pretty good passing ability, great squad player as it seems Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aside from not winning balls, Ampadu had a very average match against another side that stacked the CM against us. Nothing special from Ethan at all, but this looks like the trend against Chelsea and I don't see us doing anything tactically to counter it --whether it's the fault of Antonio or our lack of quality players is up for debate. I can criticize Fabregas like anyone else this year, but I think that Cesc and our other players in centre mid are going keep on seeing this overloaded pressure in centre mid until our side changes tactics or gets additional players into the squad. We are too static on attacks, ineffective up top with combinations and outnumbered in centre mid because opponents can just focus pressure there to win the ball back. Having Kante there masks the problem because Kante can play like 1.5 players with great awareness, speed and balance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, I don't expect from this youngsters to perform good every game. In some games opposition will be just too tough, in some games Willian, Cahill and co. will ruin all that is good. But that won't happen in every game, those young boys will get their chances every now and then and it's totally up to them to show their qualities in some of those games, games where some things actually goes our way.

Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted October 25, 2017 Share Posted October 25, 2017 Pretty woeful overall especially the second half and young Charlie no problem in believing in your own ability but when you're giving the chance after acting all Billy big bollocks on Twitter you have to do better than that son. What I'm pissed off with is the club and tonight's ticketing. Surely they could have put all the Scousers in the upper tier of the Shed and sold tickets to Chelsea fans in the Shed lower. It's half term week and I know for a fact there are many parents who would have liked to bring their kids to tonight's game. Instead we had loads of empty seats there didn't need to be that much segregation this was Everon not Millwall. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
