robsblubot 3,595 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 (edited) Easy game against a disjointed team. thought lukaku had a good game nothing special. Couple of poor touches and miscontrol, but physical presence at all times-basically what we expected of him. Dominated in all areas of the pitch. Embarrassing Arsenal… Pepe is such an awful footballler. we even gave them a chance by resting kante for most of the match. Lol kai is becoming an amazing player!

Pizy 18,914 Posted August 22, 2021 Share Posted August 22, 2021 And just think, that was Lukaku not anywhere near his sharpest and a Lukaku who has only trained with his new teammates for a week. It’s scary how good we could look when he’s in mid season form. OneMoSalah and Alabama 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On par with City, Bayern, possibly PSG (not seen them in full force yet). This group of players we have assembled is loaded with quality and everyone is fighting for each other. The next few weeks will show if this holds true over a longer period but other than 2010 and 2012 where we came off great seasons and title wins but faded due to fatigue, injuries and the usual corruption, this is not built on sand with a small, ageing squad. We have more than 2 full XIs of absolute quality players, except for Papi Thiago everyone is 30 y.o. max,most with their best years ahead of them and probably the best coach in the world at the helm. The board, the squad, the staff all working in harmony. Still, these moments of football bliss are fragile so we should cherish them as much as we can.

Stats 7,142 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Kovacic deserves a lot of praise for the first goal. Seems to have gone unnoticed, the role he played. He dictated that whole move. Swiftly turned away from Martinelli, which is a trademark move of his before passing it into Lukaku and receiving the ball back from Lukaku and laid a superb weighted ball to James who passed it into Lukaku.

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Lukaku, Havertz, Mount from now on please. Werner has it all to do to get in the team although he will definitely play a part. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

coolhead23 1,147 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Good win and good second debut by Lukaku. All round performances from everyone and the bench strength really looks great. However we need to be ruthless going forward if we need to win the title. We were in command for most part but there were time when we release our foot off the pedal that is something that we cannot allow. It is early days but I would hope that we kill the game rather than allowing our opponents any chance. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DH1988 1,348 Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 I think Tuchel summed it up, we looked a bit leggy and not sharp. Otherwise, it was a good performance, we invited pressure onto ourselves and slipped into second gear. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
