Worst is being outplayed by Norwich and Sheffield in second half. If you are glad with that and still think we will compete for the top 4, fair enough.

Siffat 0 Posted August 31, 2019 Share Posted August 31, 2019 The biggest issue in our defense in recent games is that our RB spot is not strong i.e Azpilicueta. Recently he is making mistakes I think he was good as a centre back at Conte's time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But the defense is tottering in the seams. It was a mistake to let Luiz go. Did you miss Luiz's masterclass at Anfield last week? His departure has no bearing. the wes, Johnnyeye, Starman60 and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've seen him go to sleep against all teams, so that has no relevance. Look at the PK he gave away; that's stupidity at its finest. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only 4 games in but the same mistakes has happened time and time again! That is definitely disappointing I would agree. The young players are actually stepping up. If you'd have said Tammy would have 4 in 4 and Mount 2 in 4 before the season everybody would snap your hands off. Tomori too I thought was actually pretty solid today and looked the more senior and comfortable defender alongside Zouma. Muzchap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We struggle with major setbacks in game, it's been the case ever since the old guard got old. The fact we've been by far the better side in two 4-0 losses this calendar year says it all.

Sorry but that’s naive. Once again check luiz’ stats for us. Not to mention his silverware. it’s fine to diss players who leave, esp the ones who force their exit, but he’d definitely improve this shit show of a back line. He’s just as physical as zouma, but twice the footballer, as in he can actually play football. And then there is experience, but I guess folks here are in denial regarding that. Just can’t see the silver lining of losing luiz without a proper replacement with the same level of experience especially for the back and especially considering how many youngsters are being used.

I think we can, Frankfurt last year testement to that. What just can't seem to panic once we things happen against the script, it's like an over zealous kid playing fifa starts with a plan is executing it quite well but something goes wrong and instead of remaining calm acts like the world is caving in and totally loses composure.

The attack does not hold the football and does not win 50/50s. The wingers don’t defend well enough. The mid gets overwhelm and so does the defense. the fact we have no passer in the back line makes things worse as the ball goes right back to the opposition. Esp when Zouma kicks it up field. rudiger will not fix this. Muzchap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
