PRE/POST-MATCH DISCUSSION, LIVE CHAT AND ANALYSIS



2017/18 Premier League Match 27
12th February, Monday, 2018
Stamford Bridge
20:00 Kick Off (UK time)

[Hamilton 2,120]

Again a frustrating Monday night?

With or without conte?

[Cosmin 2,484]

The player's won't step up, once again, as the relationship between them and Conte is clearly broken. 

I do not think it's intentional, but mentally it's difficult to give your best as long as your manager keeps suggesting that the squad is not good enough. 

I love Antonio and I am 100% sure that I'll miss him, but he definitely lost the plot. You cannot win with this attitude. Not against Chelsea's board, not in the Premier League. 

Last season, he was enthusiastic and did his job with the resources that he had. When he noticed that something was not working, he changed the system, he tried to make things better with the players that were available at that point. 

This season, he just keeps complaining.  I can see why the players seem lost. 

[Hamilton 2,120]

At least we won’t see Bakayoko in this one..

[Laylabelle 9,351]

Slightly worrying that despite how far behind they seemed.. Arsenal if they win will be 2 behind.... 

Can see this being crap... A draw? Done the 2 losses in a row now enough of that 

[Magic Lamps 11,653]

If we keep him after watford at least we honour the tradition to sack managers after games vs West brom

[jernej93 565]

If we see another 343 with Cahill in the back 3 than I hope Conte gets fired tbh  

Don't need to change formation but some players should stay away from starting eleven and our team needs more attacking power, I would go for:

 

Courtois
Azpi - Christensen - Rudiger
Willian - Kante - Fabregas - Emerson
Pedro/Hudson - Giroud - Hazard

I'm sure Pedro will be out for a some time with the injury he picked up.

Christensen is injured, i'd put Ampadu in.

And Willian can't defend no way is he a RWB, i'm afraid it's either Moses or Zappacosta unless you can think of someone else.

352 for this one 

azpi cahill rudi/ moses kante cesc barkley alonso/ giroud hazard

not bad, but I would go with

               azpi, luis, rudi

moses, kante, ampadu, emerson/alonzo

                   hazard/william

                giroud, odi/hazard

1. This gives hazard 2 options in front of him, one runner & one target man. I think hazard is needed in the midfield for more control against the high press, he or william can link the midfield to attack without losing athleticism in fab.

2. May be kante holding with william & hazard as atttacking mids if they will take the responsibility to cover when needed against teams the park.

Start with a striker don't care if he is from our youth academy can't be any worse that how we are already playing atleast I will be happy to see academy players getting game time.

Wouldn't be against seeing Daishawn Redan in action tbh.

Giroud was pretty fresh against Watford so its a no brainer he should start against West Brom. 

Btw when is Morata coming back!?!?!

[kmk108 1,186]

Another weekday match!? I haven't watched a Chelsea match live since the Brighton match, and it looks like I won't get to watch another one until the United match.

 

Maybe our form is all my fault....

 

Nah, we're just shit right now.

[manpe 10,861]

No Bakayoko, means we have a chance. Slight, but still a chance. 

[Magic Lamps 11,653]

Try something new for one. I guess christensen is still out so

 

-------------Tibo-------------

Azpi--Luiz--Rüdiger--Emerson

------Kante----Drinkwater-------

Willian-Hazard-Giroud-Hudson-Odoi

 

will take anyone by surprise. I think 4 defenders and 2 dms will offer enough protection + loads of pace in the wide positions.

Ive seen that formation some where eles on this forum, slight player changes in this one 🤔🤔🤔🤔😂😂😂😂😂

[MichaelDance 552]

I'd have Willy in goal to be fair Courtois couldn't keep a clean sheet but it's not just his fault Cahill is half to blame.
