Clockwork 1,794 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Tuchel is weird guy, when he has low trust in some players the first bad game they will be on the bench for a long time. If he favors a player, it doesn’t matter how bad they get they will still be starting. One person who we have not talked about is Mendy, he has been terrible for a while now.

Simon1991 233 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 You really want to focus on that bad touch, and ignore the rest of his game? He ran like a mad-man all game, that's normal to expect a lack of lucidity after putting on efforts repeatedly. Blue Armour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Armour 4,467 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 I take back what I said about Cucurella. He really stepped it up in the 2nd half. Great distribution by him, and great movement by Sterling, RLC, James and Kai. Yes, Kai. Shortcomings regardless, felt Havertz put up a good shift in that second half. And thank you Silva. What a warrior. We're still playing with fire though, without signing that additional CB. On another day Vardy would have gobbled up those chances he got by going against Chalobah.

He nearly setup Sterling for his second goal (the one where he hit the post). Definitely deserves more credit. That being said, we still need a goal scoring reinforcement to give him and Broja competition. Simon1991 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Magic Lamps 11,692 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 Have to hail the teams character today. I thought it would be another one of those days when Conor got sent off but we turned things around and earned our luck. We have been so unlucky for weeks including today so more than deserved fortune to swing back for once. Blue Armour 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, 90% ok and better than Courtois when he was playing for us. The problem is his distribution and he did n't have the chance today to pass the ball to a Leicester attacker ! For that reason -and not for today's performance- he deserves some benching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johnnyeye 7,517 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 huge 3 points considering we were playing with 10 men, great response from the lads. James is world class, also great from Sterling. On to the next one Strike 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blues11 213 Posted August 27, 2022 Share Posted August 27, 2022 3 points is great. Going to need every point we can get and what seems to be a much more competitive season than last. That being said we've beat two bad teams and we badly need changes. No clue why LC didn't press the shit out of us after we went down one man, that second Sterling goal they basically watched us pass it up the field. Gave Jorginho too much space and that's when he's a pretty decent player. It's time to give Broja a chance and bench Havertz or Mount for a game, they're not providing anything.

We have been so unlucky for weeks including today so more than deserved fortune to swing back for once. This team is odd at times... On one hand, it can do incredible stuff against the odds, like drawing away to Liverpool despite being a man down, nearly turning a tie against Madrid in the CL, and rescuing 3 points here. And on the other, it can be wasteful with chances created, and also leak goals from individual errors. We are still missing that one talisman like figure that we had in Drogba/Hazard. Kante when fully fit and in form is our only bet atm. Laylabelle 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we will likely see some rotation on Tue for our front 3 attackers. Edited August 27, 2022 by Blue Armour Blues11 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
