Real Madrid 2-0 Chelsea

[Pizy 17,861]

It’s straight up embarrassing how much calmer, crisper, and technical they are compared to us. Every player 1-11 has an amazing first touch. Contrast to us where like 3-4 of our first 11 does.

[HEREIAM 83]

James has loads of space in front of him yet seems to be idiling

[Vesper 27,378]

Kante is playing poorly

[chelsea_4_eva 1,144]

Take Felix off at half time and put in Kai.. he is always up for a game against RM.

No fire in this team atm.

[Blues11 213]

We’re playing and lining up like we’re trying to take a back to the bridge down by less than 2. 
 

Don’t think these players could even finish at the training grounds atm 

 

[HEREIAM 83]

Is James injured? Very slow and no fight

[cosmicway 1,261]

Played off the pitch and only 1-0.

[zinctek 403]

To be fair the way we have pld this year 1 nil at half time isn't to bad for us

Could have been different if Felix had anything about him

[Costa19 846]

I mean we clearly missing the spark . Play Havertz and Mudryk. Atleast both will run and TRY something.

That's how they play.
When they have the ball in midfield it's seldom they will not complete an attack

[Vesper 27,378]

with a quick cross field pass we would have a TONNE of space to surge forward

plus they are a bit open in the middle but so dew of our players carry the ball with pace against it, they just back pass

[Magic Lamps 11,460]

We have the way more athletic team on average but they are just more competent. Technically, tactically, mentally they are on a different level. If we just lose this 1-0 we can by no means complain. Torrid defending for their goal such an easy chip.

they have a huge lack of pace at multiple positions though

we just do not have passing scheme to take advantage

Kante has been so poor moving the ball forward

Chilwell is so indecisive, James looks off, and Kova is not carrying the ball forward like he usually does

[Vesper 27,378]

this is truly where the lack of a WC manager is killing us

Pep is watching this Real side and licking his lips

[Mhsc 646]

Kante, Enzo and Kovacic should be a dominant midfield but meh. Forwards been useless, Frank needs to either change the personnel or change the approach. Why on Earth neither Mudryk or Havertz is playing is beyond me.

I know that. That's why we scored three against them last year.
