closed Wolves 2-1 Chelsea

[Jase 43,479]

What happened just now is another case of not learning from the past. This was just like the West Ham game back in June/July. We weren't playing well, struggling to score and instead of just saying "okay, let's just settle for the point here, run and regroup", we overcommitted ourselves brainlessly and conceded a late winner. Fucking joke!

Maybe Lampard said that Neto is their main man and RJ needs to be always with him. At the end, he was the Motm.

Oh please.

This was nothing short of a disgrace.

Frank is getting it massively wrong.

Have you ever seen such predictable football in your life? cross, cross, cross, pass back go the center backs..cross, cross, cross..Comon... we are playing like a team from the Championship. We have no midfield. They all goal hang with the forwards. Dreadful... just dreadful.

Putting crosses into the box is one thing - sides like Liverpool and Man City do that a lot - but what I don't get is why we kept putting high crosses into the box for the likes of Werner and Pulisic to win. If it's delivered for Giroud, fine, go high with the cross but otherwise, why the fuck were we putting high crosses in? Where were the low crosses or even the cutbacks!? And another frustrating thing was nobody was intelligent enough to stay deeper and pick up the second balls - there were a good number of them - but yet, everyone kept trying to go for the high crosses!

Let me repeat for everyone that's trying to stay positive. 6 wins, 4 draws and 3 losses. Not good enough, just when we think Lampard is improving he keeps disappointing.

Or better, just take Neto out and take the yellow card! 

And that's always gonna be Zouma's problem. His defensive flaws get exposed when the game becomes open and he has to deal with 1 v 1 situations.

exactly, Thiago cannot steer him right then

Lol 4 games ago - Lampard can do no wrong 

4 games later - Lampard doesn't have a clue

The TC Rollercoaster 🤣🤣🤣

This season was always going to be a struggle to incorporate new players with little or no pre-season.

Yes, Havertz has had a bit of shocker lately, but what do you do? Stick him on the bench or play him until he finds some form. It can take players a season to adapt to the PL. 

We won't see the best of this team until everyone is fit. We have a couple of injuries, the wheels fall off and it's all Frank's fault. 

Let's see where we are at the end of the season - I'm predicting comfortable 3rd place minimum 👍

It's confidence. The players with confidence are great, without average. They need to bounce back 👍

As long as we don't go on a 3 or 4 game losing streak they will be fine.

[communicate 2,703]

Let me say, all of this attacking problem will be solved once Ziyech is back. But we made 200+ signing. We should be much better offensively but not sure we do. Last year there was a spell when we struggle to score because Lamp decided to freeze Giroud and Pedro. Once Pulisic got injured and tammy misfired we had no other player.

12 dropped points from games we should have won this one, Everton, and the two SHIT draws versus SOTON and West Brom, and the Manure robbery

that is hallway or more to last years 22-24 dropped points from chokes

and the season is only a 3rd of the way done

[Azul 1,615]

Everyone in their right mind knew that Lampard had to prove himself against the better sides, and currently he is failing.

 

How are you positive after this result? Do you realise what kind of a squad we have? We shouldn't be struggling in these games.

Oh we probably will finish 3rd or 4th. But i expect us to be much better after 200m signing.

Can any 1 give me a proper reason why we don't play with Giroud and werner as a 2?

[Jase 43,479]

Lampard talked a lot about Wolves' strength being the counter attacks in his post-match press conference and yet did nothing to help stem that...

Did you notice that we literally haven't using our midfield correctly this game? Our midfielders were playing like wingers and the middle of the park was basically empty. It wasn't working just like the Everton game and nothing changed.

 

All we did was pass sideways.

Yes because we mostly have sideway passers in our team. Only Billy is a different type of midfield player that has the quality to play through balls from midfield

What do you expect when no one is making the runs upfront? Giroud, for one, certainly isn't going to outrun the Wolves defenders.

Through pass is not the only option besides sideways passing. Remember how we used to play under Conte etc? We play combination(tiki-taka) football at times. I never see that under Lampard, because the players haven't been coached to do that. I don't see a 1-2 pass in the middle of the park between players, even though that's something even my coach teached me when I used to play football.
