Chelsea 1-2 Real Madrid

[Mhsc 1,097]

Enzo showing dat quality, Noni top work.

Bizarre seeing such high potential in this side but also such obvious problems in different places in different situations.

We will be way better with Cucu LB but concerns at CB are very serious tbh

Madueke has stepped up during preseason. He seems like our most dangerous attacker (on tour).

Absolutely, he is great in this system, gives him repeated 1v1 opportunities.

If he can become clinical after winning the 1v1 he will be insane but if this is his general level great squad player we've got already.

I feel dread knowing he's going to come on in the second half and its going to be depressing.

I'm still trying to process WTF Bads was doing when we conceded

I am offended he plays in a Chelsea shirt if he can't be bothered to sprint in that situation. I've got time for players making errors when trying their best but if you can't be bothered to RUN in a clutch situation to cover the goal man idk what to say that is just fucking shameful

He trains with Mudryk and Sterling. He probably thought no way that was going to be on target🤣

He's anything but a squad player the way our team is looking.

i dont see it. maybe its just me but all i see is lazy, poor passing. never comes back after loosing the ball. acts like a child! (well he sort of is)  i cant see any potential there. 

[King Kante 1,643]

I am not sure what the manager is telling the players, but that high line with little to no pressure on the ball is suicidal. Thing that concerns me most is how confused the players look. James has on a number of occasions looked completely confused when being spoken to and then gone over to the sideline to apprantly seek further clarification. Same goes with Enzo and Colwill. So, I am not sure this is entirely the players not doing what they're being told, as it looks a bit like they're trying to do as instructed but are confused as to why they're having go do it due to the problems it is creating.

He definitely is not perfect, but he is our best winger by far at the mo

yeah headless chickens a little embarrassing (not sure who for, the manager or the players) knowing these are professional footballers and look lost out there.

His all around play is generally sloppy, which is holding him back. He is the only "old school" winger we have that can actually take on his man & at times, deliver something.

[Vesper 30,193]

insane lack of effort for Badi on both goals

especially the 2nd

40yo Thiago would have been there to clear

Noni and Lavia are the only ones that look completely clear on what they're meant to be doing. However, as a fan of Noni, I agree that he is the second best AM we have after Palmer in terms of impact in the final third - despite him not being great technically.

Only CB I would immediately transfer list tbh. Definitely keep Chalobah over him.
