We’re killing them down both flanks but do nothing with it.

Are we? All our attacks are basically coming down the right side, almost the opposite of that 1st leg game recently.

This possession ball is getting really boring. Cross cross cross nobody is there. 

[Clockwork 1,762]

I am watching Lukaku, and I am wondering how anyone can think he was worth purchasing. Can @Jype @Stats @Special Juan you guys help? Since you guys were so aggressively in favor of it and calling out anyone for disagreeing.

Attack's a bit lopsided. Mount is on the right supporting Ziyech, Azpi and making neat runs in behind but the left is just CHO without support

Rom have a thumbs up quota in his contract?  Worse than Phil Mickelson

[Laylabelle 9,296]

No doubt they'll get a chance and score..7 corners..7 shots..and nothing

[MoroccanBlue 5,195]

Glad to read virtually nothing has changed.

7 corners, 7 shots but I struggle to remember clear chances in them. Been unsure in and around the box

All that possession but no penetration, no quality. Huffing and puffing like a mid-table side. No defensive mistake or comedy own goal to profit from (so far).

Was Lukaku trying to make up to the other players? Happily giving the thumbs up to every attempted pass. Also, hilarious how he showed his frustration on that one occasion when CHO suddenly got the ball on the left from the right and he didn't pass it to him in a box crowded with players.

Thing is, we have actually been "servicing" Lukaku but he's once again showing how shit he is.

Prime Costa and this game is over.

It’s just sad that the only way I can see us scoring atm if from a comedy mistake from our opponents or a fluke from someone unexpected.

Can’t remember a side collapsing to this degree with just 2 injuries but us not having our first choice wingbacks has made us look like a totally different team. We look no better than a midtable side without them.

Expect more the same next half!

A kind way to put it. We are just dumping hopeful crosses and cut backs into the box.

Ziyech is also a really like poor man's Fabregas. Looks nice whenever he swings a cross or makes a pass with that left foot of his but it's so inaccurate most of the time.

Don't need to tell me. Looked through the XI earlier and I thought, "Tuchel has selected those players to provide the service to Lukaku".

He hasn't done anything and neither has those players selected to provide the service.

Please tell me where I called anyone for disagreeing? I had an opinion that he was the best striker on the market. People who were against signing him, I disagreed and had a debate. There is a difference. Please understand that this is a forum where everyone has different opinions. Has he disappointed me? Yes, big time, but please show me quotes before you say I called people out for disagreeing.

and nothing much being done about by the board so far

Mount layed one on a plate for him and Ziyech crosses should be perfect for someone his size.

It's not been perfect but he's a £97m striker who should be making the most of this.

Win would be huge after that Arsenal draw. Hope Tuchel doesnt wait till the 80th for the change
