Yes true but the potential is there for massive improvement with Werner, Havertz, Pulisic, Ziyech linking up in attack. Muzchap 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one is questioning that but whether Lampard is the right person to get the best out of those players and the team in the long run remains to be seen.

cosmicway 1,333 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Another thing about the defense is they 're not taught to watch after their *ss. Zouma behaved as if we were 1-0 down and we were into "attack or die" mode.when he made that dangerous pass to the goalkeeper. He could have quite easily have kicked the ball out for a Southampton corner. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Not in on the whole Klopp, Pep were given time, Lampard needs to be given time nonsense. But we knew we signed a young coach and the hope was he would learn on the job. I still think the time to consider this question is later this season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it doesn't mean we should just blindly give him time if there's no progress. The club knew they got an inexperienced manager but am sure they also expected progress and improvement. As I said in the other thread, if we continue to take a step forward and two steps backward in the next 1-2 months, am sure Roman and the board will start asking questions.

Still fancy Chelsea hovering close to the top Hopefully..cause now we look better in attack but at the back...that will be costly unless it sorted. Where on earth was Kepa going yesterday?! Its just silly mistakes at the wrong moments. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BXL70 396 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 I said yesterday that Kepa was not at fault. Looking again at the game, I have changed my mind. First goal, he could have done better if he was a very good GK. And he didn't. Second goal, massive howler from Kepa for sure. Back-pass from Zouma was extremely poor but he messed up, that second goal should have never happened. Third goal: was he sleepy? A good GK would have managed that. I have enough of Kepa!

What annoys me is his inferior mentality as well. We're 2-1 up against Southampton at HOME and he decides to go defensive which allowed Soton to pressure us. We then concede, but afterwards we score our third goal. Guess what Lamps does? He brings Reece James on because he is afraid of Southamptons pressure and attack. We sit deep as a result and concede yet again. To think a Chelsea manager would be afraid of Southampton is embarrassing and unacceptable. We don't play like we're the top dogs anymore. Can't believe I'm saying this but we're starting to look like Arsenal under Wenger. Atomiswave 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your playing against us your rubbing your hands together because teams now know how weak mentally we are at the back. I said yesterday, if Mendy is in goal and Thiago is there we don't concede those goals. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But also for me the point is why when it was blazingly obvious to every Chelsea supporter, that we needed not only a new number 1 keeper we also need a 2nd choice. Then the other biggee is why the fuck didn't we try to buy at least one top defender, we instead bring in a geriatric who can only play so often, a decent player maybe if you have decent defenders around him, but we don't. I was screaming in the transfer window FFS at least sign Upamecano, cannot believe that we never went in for him.

Gesendet von meinem VOG-L29 mit Tapatalk I meant overall, the whole team keeps changing game by game. At the end of the day we really should not be dropping pts vs WB and SH, we really shouldnt. So many silly pts lost its crazy. I hope FL pulls through, he cant be sticking with the same excuses for much longer, there are clear fundemental issues at play here. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BXL70 396 Posted October 18, 2020 Share Posted October 18, 2020 Agree. But still, with Kepa as KG its one or 2 howlers every game that leads to a goal. Enough is enough. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
