Worried? It would be 4 or 5-0 if we were more clinical or our final ball was better.... jeez. Aye didnt play anywhere near as well second half but were solid enough.

Jase 43,479 Posted February 15, 2021 Author Share Posted February 15, 2021 Good first half. So-so second half. Should have scored more but the final ball was lacking again. Also did well enough to not make any cock-ups at the back (THANK GOD!). Blue Armour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can play better as I said but wouldn’t be panicking yet. We are capable of playing through a press also. Just need to maintain it for a full game.

Vesper 30,225 Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 woot top 4 (and above POOL with both of us on same number of games) lol Everton play shitty and pool Villa play Leicester and Leeds (they are the only 2 teams with enough points and games in hand to top us at 24 games) so I think its a legit 4th place with all on 24 games as I really doubt Villa win both by a combined + 5 goals Nero 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Armour 4,448 Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 (edited) On a serious note though, that second half was frustrating. Players seemed to take their foot off the gas in the final third, and did not do enough to seal the win with a 3rd or even 4th goal. On Kepa starting, that gives me anxiety. He really wasn't tested today, and I'm worried about what a more decent side will bring out of him. I don't see anything convincing about his recent performances to warrant a starting 11 spot. That being said, I wouldn't be surprised to see him start another league game, with Mendy probably starting again in the Champions league against Athletico.

Blues11 213 Posted February 15, 2021 Share Posted February 15, 2021 Can't complain too much. Tuchel has done what he's been brought in for and that's to give us a chance to finish top 4. Our attack still looks lost. Would be interesting to see how TT plays it being down a goal or two. Might never happen if we continue to hold possession 80% of the time.

And when they pressed us, we stopped dominating the game. This is Newcastle.. For aslong as he's playing 3atb got no problem with Alonso playing, especially as Chilwell has been off it for ages. But yeah Kepa can't play, he will cost us. Blues11, CBabayaro, Vytis33 and 4 others 6 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will probably leave at the end of season. At least, Mendy is still our no. 1 GK. Kovacic was in his prime mode today. Good for him. But Newcastle is not the opposition that will tell us how good we are. Atletico Madrid will be our first real test. Spurs obviously are quite in a mess right now and we faced then without Kane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay mate, I liked that you came back but I now want you gone again! 🤣 Really though, you're kinda exaggerating there. The real test for these players, especially the new signings, will be next season. Yes, they have been bad but I also feel it's kinda hard to judge them all in some ways because of how crazy this season has been. Let's see what happens next season when we will have hopefully something more like a usual season - pre-season, no crazy packed schedule etc. killer1257, Azul and Stats 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
