Sarri But Not Sarri Thread

[Special Juan 27,092]

Our full backs are shite, Azpilcueta and Alonso offer nothing, and I mean nothing. Jorginho is a passenger, Hazard is in and out, no forward and Willian.

Factor all that together, you have got massive problems.

[Vesper 27,281]

we need to be a team that can adapt

OH THE IRONY!!!!!!

Kovacic and Barkley are also about as useful as tits on a bull

What comes of this? He'll likely just play the same players, same tactics, same formation, same shit again...

Guardiola didn't change after his first season. He was also rigid and people thought he was crazy. 

I'm willing to give Sarri another season to see if there's improvement. I knew the first season we would be like this. That's why I'm not surprised. 

However we should see some improvement next season. 

I agree 100%

People thought Pep was daft trying to play his style of football with Bravo, Otamendi, Zabaleta and Kolorov. A year later they steamrolled the league because they upgraded their weakenesses.

I didnt expect an easy ride this year under Sarri because it was so clear that Conte maximized almost everything he could out of what we had when we won the league. It didnt work the following season because we weren't good enough and sold 2 key players in Costa and Matic, both who were very good and have never been replaced properly. We finished 5th last season, weve hardly massively improved any position on the pitch bar the addition of Jorginho but that also comes at the loss of what Cesc could offer. Glaring issues are still there, left back, right wing and upfront. Throw in the lack of movement or productivity from our front 3 and midfield... even more glaring issues. 

I think if Sarri gets next season it will be a lot better yes, but that also depends on improving the squad and first 11. Which very much lies with the board more than Sarri due to his reluctance to be involved with the market.

Absolute rubbish he's world class, he isn't even the best player in the PL. He's proven many times at Chelsea because the shite he's surrounded by makes him glitter.

Two players in the world that are world class, Messi and Ronaldo the rest are absolute miles and miles behind. They are game changers, goal machines and players who change things in the blink of an eye.

you consider 2 players in the world world class that's okay. Messi doesn't even look half as dominant for Argentina when he isnt surrounded with the best players at Barcelona. Hazard's performance for Belgium either equals or  supersedes anything Messi has done with Argentina.

Messi and Ronaldo don't play with the dross Hazard has had to endure with for most of his Chelsea career.  Wait till Hazard leaves us and joins a better team and you'll quickly see what he means to this side.

Don't let your frustrations with the current state of affairs at the club make you say silly things. Hazard is demonstrably the PL's best player. 

So far, Sarri is pretty much following the Conte script of playing Hazard out of position which has coincided with drop in goals : games ratio. It's literally the same as 17/18. If Higuian is the striker we think he is, Hazard will be back ripping shit up in his natural position.

I've heard this before from him...especially after the Spuds league game....

Fooled me once.

Well let's wait and see. Sometimes it's better to be a bit more patience and he was.

Yes, some players should change. As far as tactics I don't know. I still he should still continue with the 4-3-3....but with a striker. No False 9. I really dislike that.

Changing style and changing tactics, formation are two different things. And I was talking about the latter...

Here we go again with the dreaded "suffering" word. Literally can't make half of this shit up!

He is about to bottle top 4 for us.

If this result today doesn't change him, nothing would. And that's why I'm leaning Sarri out.

We still got EL. 

Don't worry he will change some things. That talk he just gave its pretty convincing to me. 

After the Spurs game, I would have done the same. Mad at the player, but maybe you thought it was a one game. So be patience with them and give them time. I think this time is for real.

Is conte is back already?

[BlueLyon 9,359]

Bringing a striker and playing Eden in his actual position will at least bring back the best of Eden. 

I mean the guy plays two best players Eden and Kante out of their position and questions whats wrong.

Simple math mate.

[Jase 43,479]

Anyone noticed that Sarri has been low-key diverting the blame all season? Every time we lose a game, he always talks about the players' poor mentality, attitude and nothing about what he did etc. If it had been Mourinho or Conte...

He's not better than Salah, in fact he's actually not any better than David Silva who's approaching the end of his life at City. Right now people are putting Hazard on this big fuck off pedestal once again, he's good, but he ain't that good.

There is a fucking good link up striker on the bench in Giroud that linked up pretty well with him earlier in the season, but isn't that up to Sarri again? Higuain will not mask the issues in this team, he will merely become a focal point, but a focal point is nothing without service. Our LB is shite, out number 10 is in and out, our 22 is garbage and we have midfield players without a fucking clue.
