Chelsea 1-1 Liverpool

[Vegetable 830]

Not annoyed with missing chances, half of those players are probably quite intimidated playing in such team against such team in such stadium, they will get it going right hopefully

Jackson will get another chance in this game.

I'm sure of it.

But on the other hand,

Get Gallagher off 

Bring Santos in

 

Yeah Gallagher stands out, but there are other players who are just a bit too young and inexperienced for this level. They take an extra second on the ball, or to make a decision. That's normal, but it costs you at this level.

With all things considered, it was a good first half.

Andre Santos can come in second half 

[Pizy 18,877]

Grew into the game and looked the much better team once we calmed down.

Caicedo in this team in place of CG and we’d be bossing it.

[Vesper 30,119]

amazing we are tied (and almost up 2 1 or 3 1) with a side so young and who have never played all together EVER before

[chelsea_4_eva 1,182]

With a midfield consisting of Gallagher and Chuku... we are not doing too bad..

Well, it’s going about as good as I was hoping. Need to figure out how to pocket Salah in 2nd half (cut supply and / or get a fast defender on him 1v1) and we have a good chance here

I very happy to see we are not playing overly defensive

Really worried there. Were Salah a bit sharper, down a few games in the season, and we would have a mountain to climb.

Jackson will be a beast for us.
He is tailormade for the PL.

Hope he bags a goal soon so he skyrocket

Despite the miss Jackson is playing well.

Sterling and James are linking up really well on the right. I like what I see from Sterling so far... looks like some of that spark is back.

Liverpool are the better team, tho. They just are quicker and sharper on the ball in all areas.

We don't have anything remotely close to Salah in attack tho.

Yes., not too bad at all considering our lineup.

Full credit to Pochettino.

This game would be a lot different if we also had the central midfield we needed.

But unfortunately the administration has disregarded the importance of a winning start to the season.

I feel some Drobaesque vibes 

[DDA 9,929]

OK.. started really slow and ended the half really well.

Enzo is pure class.

[cosmicway 1,333]

We left some huge gaps.
Saleh fractionally offside for the 2-0 then had another one blocked by a defender with Sanchez beaten.
Pool are nothing special and they are beatable, there are stronger opponents down the road.

We look good, we look hungry and determined. This is game one and more quality Is going to be added to this squad.
