Guroud is far too inconsistent to be playing as the number 9 starter for a big club. He can be extremely frustrating to watch considering he has all the ability in the World.

What really held him back was his severe lack of pace.

[!Hazard! 3,394]

Very very poor first 20 mins but picked up the pace and control of the game after that. Last 25 mins of that half looked a lot like our performances back in the Conte days

[Pizy 18,368]

Giroud is a better all around footballer than Tammy is. Don't think anyone can disrupted that. As we'll he should be since he's a 33 year old finished product and Tammy is a 21 year old kid.

I would stick with Giroud for a while even if Tammy is fit. Until it looks like Giroud is struggling.

In the last two years we have lost four world class players (two to departure two to decline) while trying to change our football AND rebuild with academy players.

If you want the end product then you will have to deal with endless piss and shit on the way because theirs going to be more days like this to come. Yes Frank is making some mistakes that he needs to cut out to ultimately make it here however ANY manager will need time to turn our current batch into a title challenging team.

Who are two in decline? 

Kante and ?

I think it a big part was the teams he was in.

Despite being involved in some beautiful team goals he's never really suited a possesion based system, so through all his time in England his brief spell under Conte was the only time he fully suited the system being played.

He would have actually been a perfect signing in 2012, imagine him playing off Mata, Hazard and a young Oscar?

Azpilicueta. Still decent but far off the player who was impossible to get past under Conte and before.

[Vesper 28,832]

if we were any less clinical the Chels WAGS would be giving birth in baby jeebus's manger

These commentators are so anti-Cheslea it is unreal. They are cheering for anything the Cherries do.

Ahh, I love Azpi. Like you said almost unbeatable one o one at his pomp but can't really consider him as wc.

Now the game is opening up, we really need mount and Pedro to shine
