Strike 7,490 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Game was tailor-made for Zouma and even Giroud to ping with the midfield. We do have a gap - shot down to two but we do have it so I'm hoping Lampard wakes up and stops the idea of playing the likes of Christensen and Barkley regularly in the hope they'll turn consistent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Henrique 9,133 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Just now, Mana said: I'd rather us lose to Leicester in the FA Cup, then to lose here in the PL. We need major surgery in that defense now. Our CBs and LB are shite and will ruin any hope of chasing CL next season. Since the old days when we had Terry, Carvalho, Alex and Ivanovic at their peak, our defense has been full of mediocre players. In 2015 and 2017 the team had strong defensive systems, but the players were mediocre. All of them. Luiz, Cahill, Azpilicueta, Alonso and aging Terry. Just look at the quality of defenders we got in recent years: Alonso, Rudiger, Palmieri, Zapacosta and Rudiger. We aint going nowhere. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pizy 18,917 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 Antonio isn't even a natural CF. He isn't tall or good in the air. Yet he won seemingly every ball played long to him even with AC or Rudiger man marking him. That's completely unacceptable. VVD or Maguire dominate in those scenarios. VVD in particular would've totally shit those situations down. Our CB's BOTH get bullied by him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superblue 6,372 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 For me the most disappointing aspect was after how poor we played against Leicester, I fully expected that to be a wake up call but we've been poor and lethargic again. West Ham wanted it more and that's unacceptable. Defensively it's just not good enough. We need a leader at the back, both for set pieces and to organise that back line in open play.

Lampard is just obsessed with Kante, IMO. He's trying shoehorn him into the XI whatever the cost and because it's Kante. Even in this supposedly new DM role, Kante looks neither here nor there, just as he was in the role he played under Sarri.

petre.ispirescu 4,928 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 No reason in pumping any more money into trying to create a stellar front line when we are served that abysmal defence. Put prime Messi and Ronaldo into this line up and nothing would change, Chelsea's current defenders are total garbage. Soyuncu, Romagnoli and God knows what other towering defenders are out there, all I know from tonight on Chelsea must prioritise the defence otherwise we're going nowhere.

Johnnyeye 7,510 Posted July 1, 2020 Share Posted July 1, 2020 My god we are so shit, typical Chelsea, this defense is a joke ffs, can't even hold on to a draw to save their lives, just get rid of all these deadwood defenders, fucking West Ham have done the double over us, let that sink in. We definitely don't deserve top 4, last season we were extremely lucky we had Hazard and other teams around us were so shit.
