James---Rudiger---Tomori---Emerson

 

There. Now don't fucking touch it. 

I remember here people wanting Emerson out after the City game? 

Emerson is just not good enough. 

We need Chilwell or Gaya. 

Rudgier who knows if he will be back in form. Takes a while from injury to be back in form. 

We need a new CB!

FFS we are realistically not getting either in January. 

Lampard has made no effort so far to create a balanced back line. And all he needs to do is give those players a run together. This could ultimately be the reason we don't finish in the top 4.

I don't know if I should feel pissed or try to put things into perspective with the recent poor results. How many of us expected the team to be sitting in the Top 4 right now when we had the transfer ban, have some young players and a young manager? I think we expected the team to be struggling somewhere in mid-table, like what Arsenal are experiencing right now. On a whole, we are certainly punching above our weight right now and things could still go right (as we learn and improve) OR horribly wrong. I'll admit though that the recent 7-game winning run raised my expectations. Perhaps I need to go back to having zero expectations.

The main concern though is the fact that we keep on making the same defensive mistakes and look no closer to finding some sort of solution. Part of it I believe is down to coaching (WHAT ON EARTH ARE LAMPARD & CO. DOING IN TRAINING?!) and another part is individuals just can't stop making (basic defensive) errors themselves. Maybe having better defenders will help sort out the errors but at the end of day and I said this some time ago, if the stupid mistakes don't go away, it's gonna be Lampard's downfall at the club.

Can someone explain Lampard obsession with Mount? It seems for Lampard the team is Mount+10. I mean, when Kante became fit he benched Jorginho instead of Mount.

True. It's not like one is a no. 10 and other are 6s and 8s. Lol.

Yeah not looking good, we all knew everton would suddenly run like demons....Lamps didnt obviously. In these matches you are compact, you hit them on the counter but you must stay solid. On top of that man we have so many dross its crazy. Marina and RA have alot of work to do.....Lamps too cuz he must surely see that the shape and certain players keep making pathatic mistakes. Half of our goals conceded have been gifts ffs. Lets be honest this squad is far far far from being quality, having a novice manager will give you performances that are up and down constantly. Lets fucking take care Lille first and go from there........but shit needs tweaking thats for sure.

I didn't? Find my posts. 

Lampard's inability to create an organised back line will cost us top 4. And the funny thing is, all he really needs to do is give that back line I posted a run of games. This will at the very least build some sort of understanding and chemistry. BUT HE CONTINUES TO CHANGE IT??

This is on par with AVB levels of defending. SHAMBOLIC.

But better than Azpi at the moment and offers something going forward but Azpi is done for.... I am saying it again azpi is done for should be outta the team for a considerable period of time.... 

The combination of James Rudiger Toimori and Emerson is progressive...

Yeah in summer ditch Alonso and buy Chillwell/Gaya and another quality centre back...

And then also against West Ham people wanted Emerson out. 

So again it's not any better. 

Just that our defense is horrible. 

it's a miracle we are in top 4. We should be in 10th place!

Continuously changing it isn't going to build an understanding. That is my gripe.

The result today is one of the biggest reasons appointing a club legend/favourite was a critical mistake. Getting rid of them will likely cause uproar even though they might warrant losing. A good example is 2015 under Mourinho, had we gotten rid of him or chose to go a different route all together we might be light years ahead of now. We had fbe pieces in place to dominate 3/4 seasons. If there is no emotional attachment then it's easier to make decisions that are good for the team in the long run. Roman used to be good at it,and should have learnt after thE Di Mateo era. Look at United they have a divided fan base because of Ole and this will soon be us 

[Atomiswave 6,117]

Negligence and lack of insight by the board and Lamps chopping and changing will hit us hard........we need a defensive coach asap cuz its clear FL do not know anything about defending. We either sort it out now or this will likely kill our top 4.

No offence but your knee-jerk rhetoric is getting boring on here.

Same can be said for Sarri and Conte. Conte even worse because he was wronged by Chelsea. Should have got him his targets. Players like Morata and Emerson being shit wasn't his fault, but he was blamed for it. Had we gotten him Lukaku, Sandro and VVD who knows where we Will be today. One thing we all knew was Conte could coach defence and attack
