OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Fullbacks decent offensively but poor defensively tonight. 100%. James and Chilwell constantly caught out of position on the break. Both embarrassing for the first goal also. Mendy perhaps does better on first goal? But the two fullbacks have to stay on their feet. Zouma has to do much better for last goal, 95th minute, show him down the line, he wants inside. For an experienced player, was poor. Offensively poor also, Havertz very very anonymous again. Werner also struggling. Ziyech is a huge miss. Pulisic good first half but tired out inevitably second half.

Pizy 18,916 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Like last season, Chelsea acts as the antidote to struggling PL teams. Everton had been shit, Wolves had struggled to score a single goal leading up to this game and were battered 4-0 by Liverpool. It's just like last season. Whenever a shite team is desperate for a result it's us who obliges. West Ham are in great form and flying relatively speaking. Arse are in relegation form and on the verge of perhaps sacking their manager so you know with 100% certainty they'll turn up against us. 0007 and Laylabelle 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fmsch24 312 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 What’s frustrating is we’re too predictable attack from the right attack from the left, no attack from the middle. It’s easy for the opposition to understand the teams rhythm. DDA 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
communicate 2,703 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 A very2 poor game for everyone, pulisic + kante fc. I didn't understand lamp at all. We moved puli from left to right, I thought that was good move but why we keep attacking from the left. That made no sense, i thought the idea was to keep feeding puli and ignore werner. It was bizzare. 0007 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jase 43,479 Posted December 15, 2020 Author Share Posted December 15, 2020 Am sure it's not purely down to the formation but ever since Wolves got promoted to the PL in 2018/19, we've failed to beat them when playing with a back 4 (D1 L2) but have beaten them when playing a back 3 (W2).

Milan 17,957 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Maybe we should go convince Peter Crouch to come out of retirement. Since our main attacking style is full backs bombing in crosses, we may need someone a bit taller than Pulisic... 0007 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

His defensive flaws get exposed when the game becomes open and he has to deal with 1 v 1 situations. OneMoSalah and Vesper 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Strike 7,489 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Not as bad as TC will make this performance seem like but there are massive issues to address. Havertz was the big call tonight and Frank got it wrong. His pressing was poor and led to Wolves pressure coming down his side. His performance also affected James and Werner. In-game, there has to be a better way to deal with being 1-0 up against a counter attacking side like Wolves? This was West Ham 2019-20 all over again. Not saying park the bus but the defenders were sitting ducks even before the equaliser went in. Muzchap and Tomo 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pizy 18,916 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 I didn't think there was any chance Frank would lose his job this season. But if the next 3 matches continue like this where we look clueless then serious questions need to be asked. Dont think he's in any danger at all after these 2 dreadful results but if this continues for another 2-3 then he has to be. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Azul 1,615 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 Anyone thinking that the players are at fault are clueless. If you're looking at it from a rational point of view then you'll see that we have one of the best squads in Europe. This shouldn't be happening. Lampards tactics doesn't make sense. We sat back even though we should have been pressing after the equaliser, and we needed some combination football instead of crossing the whole time. 0007 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whats happening 1,615 Posted December 15, 2020 Share Posted December 15, 2020 pulisic was also invisible. i honestly thought he was subbed of until someone passed to him. we need ziyech back so much. one week until the next game, werener will play again i bet. havertz not so sure. i would try with gilmour + kante and mount as an amc. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
