Milan 17,956 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 I actually like what I saw from him in the first half. And as it was mentioned, the whole Dortmund team did not bother to play in the second half at all. Fulham Broadway 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomo 21,751 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 To be fair , if we judge on an away game Vs Tottenham Pulisic looked like prime Messi compared to even our best player in the 1-3 in November. Fernando 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pulisic never to a point I would say wow what a talent. Tonight he had a rare chance to impress and lead the attack, but he failed to deliver. Not that I expected much from him anyway. ulsterchelsea 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superblue 6,372 Posted February 13, 2019 Share Posted February 13, 2019 Dortmund were very poor in that second half and Pulisic was by no means that good but to be fair to him he kept plugging away and looked their only outlet in the second half, whereas I can't remember Sancho even touching the ball. I actually think ironically his style would suit Sarri because he plays vertical and direct. Whether Sarri is still here to use him is another matter.

Arlen Correa 161 Posted February 14, 2019 Share Posted February 14, 2019 We can sign new players all the times but there is no explanation for Kante-Jorginho-Kovacic not be a great midfield for example. Off tooic but i dont think our problem is really the quality of players. The problem seems to be that they are in some permanent comfort zone and do whatever they want. Looks like a company with no boss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

None of them can fucking score for shit. And Kante is a DMF (the worlds best) being played out of position by a stubborn and foolish manager who needs the sacking. AND Jorginho is a fraud. Weak as fuck, not EPL quality. Give me Neves all day long IF we are going to keep playing this pathetic Sarriball shit. 1905didierblue and Dazzy_Vance 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Busquets and Rakitic also are not goal scorers. Its not 1990, its not 4-4-2, midfielders dont need to be goal scorers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kante is an aggressor, and Kovacic is good in possession. All three don't have end product. You can go on about Iniesta and Xavi not being goal scorers, however they were creators. The best on the planet. Kovacic needs to rotate with Jorginho and that AMF position needs to be a player with end product. Bruno Fernandes or Sarabia. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jorginho is a luxury player and would become more useable if we have at least decent FB’s or a goal treat attacking midfield (AM or RW or even both) to use right now (don’t count injuries or the ones Sarri doesn’t appreciate enough currently). The thing is Chelsea FC are in very bad shape for years and Antonio Conte did us a bad favor with some titles he won for us at the time and the rest is history. My point is Jorginho and the coach are at the bottom of Chelsea Football Club problems and shouldn’t be highlighted.

They should build not for Sarri but for Chelsea and entire organization. Your can’t get lower then this with this squad. This is the third out of 4th Chelsea season where we could end up lower then 5th in PL. This squad is like £800m-£900m expensive and we’re like a regular Europa League participator. Not many space for maneuvers. The board of directors will either back this or the next manager this summer with great players or this club will just stay in Europa League for many more years.

Simple as. We turned down £620m in hard offers (NOT counting Kante) this summer. I have fully documented this on multiple posts. Furthermore, liquidating all but 3 (promoted to first team) and 8 (the new limit susposedly) of the loan army would generate another £200m or so. Lets call it £750m just to be conservative. For that money we could have bought Mbappe and Icardi (£350m to £400m) and have £350m to £400m left to spend. It could have been done.
