LAM09 7,069 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Barkley was probably the best player today but lacked the finishing touch. Has to improve in that regard Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeboii 1,844 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 The good: Hudson-Odoi, Pasalic, Ampadu, Fabregas, Luiz, Zappacosta, Jorginho and Barkley. The bad: Morata, Alonso and Piazon. The rest were alright. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That performance will have nothing to do with if Hazard stays or goes, I fail to see any relevance what so ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Give us a month as a full team together with a proper striker and a RAM and we got the makings of a good team Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Special Juan 28,182 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Jorginho's Chelsea debut: Minutes played - 45 Total touches - 101 Completed passes - 98 A pass every 27.55 seconds Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yeboii 1,844 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Just now, !Hazard! said: Pedro was great as well Yes him as well! Now I think Sarri has a real job ahead of him of deciding who gets to play and who doesn't. Luiz and Ampadu look terrific as a CB duo (granted against a poor side) while we still have Christensen and Rudiger on our books (and probably Cahill who will somehow get to start). The midfield is also curious. Pasalic and Barkley are now knocking on the door with Drinkwater, Kanté, Bakayoko, Jorginho and Fabregas expecting to play a lot.

Pizy 18,984 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Morata's body language is just poor. He really looks like he's not bothered. I fear for our top 4 chances if he and Giroud are our only two options at striker again. Batshuayi isn't the answer either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sainttourist 68 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Fabregas and Pedro could be key to the upcoming season. They know this football pretty well and looks like enjoy it very much. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DDA 9,983 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 First half was fantastic. Then Jorginho and CHO came off, Fabregas legs went and Bakayoko played alongside the zimmerframe. Huge positives from that performance. It doesn't matter who we were playing today, it could have been Madrid whst is important is that we played Sarriball in the first half and got fitness levels up. Bravo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

God help us if we have to rely on Drinkwater for anything other than a quick sale for 2/3rds what we paid for him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 Yup Sarri has a huge rooster of players at his disposal al.ost 2 entire squads. And as he is not a cheque book manager like Mou and Pep he will give everyone a chance to impress him. If at least guys like CHO dont make the squad i will be disappointed.

Unless hes got a list of their costs next to their names i doubt he will know the worth of most of them. Its like hes seeing the majority for the 1st time so hes got no bad or good thoughts about them yet. I'm sure some money conscious Granny like person will remind him that certain players that cost too much money need to be utilized. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have the most complicated situation to sort out of any top 15, top 20 club in the world. It really is mind boggling, between new manager,new system, key positions lacking real and/or players who fit into system, overload at certain areas, under load at others, and 3 massive players wanting out or being courted massively (5 if you count Willian and donkey Morata), plus some others on the borderline too. The short window is going to screw us like a 20 quid Tower Hamlets slag. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Unionjack 7,531 Posted July 23, 2018 Share Posted July 23, 2018 I reckon if he puts CHO in the 1st team and actually gives him some playing time other than the League Cup he will become an instant hero Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
