closed Burnley 0-4 Chelsea

[Pizy 18,540]

Burnley not even attempting to play football here. Setup entirely to stifle and nullify us and hope for a counter or setpiece.

And we’re letting them do it effectively by playing at walking pace. They can sit deep for 10 hours like this.

I seriously hope Burnley will finally go down this season. Such a nothing club.

Chalobah is kinda being exposed here though as bad as Burnley is.

learning moment for Trevoh, clear the damn ball when that deep on the box

Burnley have probably the worst attack in the league and can barely score goals but they aren’t so easy to score against as you’d expect for a relegation area side. So this likely won’t be easy.

But this is definitely, 100% not a game Lukaku should be starting. Burnley would love nothing more than to sit super deep against a static Lukaku with 2-3 CB’s surrounding him and trying to hit us on the counter.

Think we should go with a quick attack. And personally think we should try Ziyech in the #10 spot rather than Mount with Havertz up top and Pulisic and Werner wide.

This prediction has proven as accurate as it was obvious. 
Burnley are very well prepared , defend super deep but also very doggedly 

Terrible watch hence

you can tell our players are distracted a bit mentally

so bad. everyone

Maybe the most infuriating side in the league to play against for our style under TT. All 11 behind the ball when out of possession, endless lumped balls into the box on the rare chances in attack they get. Midfield completely taken out of the game and forcing us to hit it long from our defenders.

Also, wtf has happened to Mount? The tenacious machine of a player that would aggressively attack the box? This feels like the umpteenth game on the bounce where he is a ghost.  
 

Chalobah, much like Sarr, has so many idiotic brain farts. AC being constantly injured is so annoying.

Possession for five minutes. Rudiger shot from 40 yards

they also are pressing us hard

very doubtful they can keep that up the whole 90 minutes

And they're frustrating us without Ben Mee

They can if we keep walking around like we’re in quick sand. We pass it around at the back 50 times and then smack it long to Kai who is dreadful at winning aerial duals against physical CB’s. 
 

We need more drive and energy in midfield. In other words, we need Kovacic. 

[Laylabelle 9,442]

Hopefully we can score a early goal.  Can see how this is ending and probably be swearing..

[Milan 17,895]

Reeeeceee!!!

[Vesper 29,383]
