It's got to the point where I'm actually hoping Batshuayi doesn't start tomorrow. We have to go with the false 9 against that slow and old Everton defense. If they start with Williams and Jagielka then Hazard, Pedro, and Willian should rip them apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stats 7,147 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Playing Everton at the wrong time imo. They just hired Allardyce not too long ago and guess what, since joining they are unbeaten under him. We have faced two relegation-battling teams who have hired new managers roughly around the time period when we have played them. Palace hired Hodgson not too long before they beat us 2-1 and West Ham hired Moyes not too long before they beat us 1-0. Now we face Allardyce. Hopefully the curse does not strike again. Good chance to go well clear off Arsenal, Liverpool and Spurs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chelsea blue 615 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Team Courtois; Azpilicueta (c), Christensen, Rudiger; Moses, Kante, Bakayoko, Alonso; Willian, Hazard, Pedro Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,928 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Hopefully Conte doesn't wait too long to bring on Cesc if this midfield struggles. I don't really love seeing Baka & Kante in a 2. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,928 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 What an absolute waste. Alonso should take ANY free kick from the left. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
!Hazard! 3,394 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Why on Earth does Willian take it? Alonso is arguably the best free-kick taker in the league at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
positivefootball 195 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Why is Willian still on the team. Jesus our skill level is terrible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,928 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Bakayoko has been so very wasteful and sloppy with his passing. Given it away about 6 times already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Just hate this pesimism from some of us. We aren't really doing anything wrong unless its not starting off full of confidence. We should really be taking these apart. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Skipper 20,609 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Hazard, Moses and Bakayoko having decent games. Pedro and Willian black holes... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given it away about 6 times already. You’re being unfair because I’m not hearing that about Kanté who has been even sloppier in possession. Edit; Bakayoko is having a good game, he’s trying to move the ball forward with not so easy passes, winning the ball well and probably created our best chance. Constantly trying to break the lines. It’s when the ball gets to Willian and Pedro where we lack the finesse. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Beigl 1,387 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Hazard isn´t a false 9. Baka has a good game so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,928 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Everton look totally toothless but I feel like if we don't score first and demoralize them a bit they'll score with one of their only attacks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LAM09 7,056 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 Drab first half. Willian or Pedro need to be replaced Baka has a good game so far. I wouldn't say that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,928 Posted December 23, 2017 Share Posted December 23, 2017 I'd probably sacrifice Willian for Cesc. We need his eye to break down their defense. Willian didn't play poorly but it's just so congested around their box that we can't break down that final barrier. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
