Our coaching stinks. That's where the problem starts.
Nah. We should be 3 0 up at half time and have 20+shots every game. Opposition doesn't matter.
of course, a another first against Manchester United First Cheski goal from a corner in 52 attempts this season 
to be fair, Souness would never have made that mistakeExpected more from Chelsea really. If we start the second half with some urgency we can definitely cause problems for them - though I struggle to see where a goal would come fromWell that was a predictable half of football for us.Looked alright first 20 minutes or so but once again lack cutting edge in attack. Rashford and Lukaku haven't got on the ball at all really.
Very often he was one-on-one.
That's not to excuse everyone else, they've all been poor.We have not capitulated which is good but it's not like we are offering much threat in terms of attacking.
Same ol shite. They ought to kill us off quick in the second half.It's not actually that bad. Could still nick a goal in the 2nd half.
Lukaku though. I don't know what he's doing lately but he needs to sort himself out.
He wanted to switch with Lindelof because he saw he was about to get screened out of the play. Lindelof either didn't hear or didn't understand. Total miscommunication. That's what he and Lindelof have been discussing after
Of course. I really believe we could get something from the game if we construct some attacks together. Chelsea's defence is there to be got at.We have to get back to square one and rebuild the team from scratch as the current team are made of mediocre players. Only De Gea can say he is a top player in his position. No manager will get this team perform like a title contender team. The squad are simply awfully put together as we have zero actual quality footballers in terms of technicality, intelligence and physicality. We have too many players that exell in one aspect but suck at the other two and that is how mediocre players look like. We have to start over as the current squad simply Will NOT do for a club of this size.
Luiz hasn't broken a sweat, but he doesn't have to. Put Sanchez on and play Rashford up the middle. That might pay dividends but Lukaku has been dead weight this half.There was a miscommunication for the goal. Pogba clearly thought Lindelöf & him should have switched and taken on each other's original man. Anyone blaming Pogba solely for losing his marker hasn't watched it closely. This kind of shit is par for the course for a badly coached team.
Matic needs to be benched. Dallies too long on the ball and his passing is atrocious. Can't have him at the base of midfield stinking up the place. Need to get Herrera fit to take over until we get Frankie or Neves.So, Chelsea's goal follows the same pattern that they used against Southampton where Luiz pulls away a defender and creates space and that's why Pogba was so upset because he knew it was coming.
Given that Rashford has had several situations with the type of space Martial could only wish for and given how poor Matic and Pogba have been, there are players who can be singled out first and foremost.
Mata is probably the only one who has been okay.Our whole team seems afraid of the game they're playing.
Agreed. Matic I love him but he’s been shockingHey Guardiola are you listening
Can you keep our trophy glistening?
We'll be back in May
To take it away
Walking in a Jose wonderland
I'm just kiddingPeople overreacting as usual. Chelsea have created jack shit. We're still in this.One attempt on target between the sides, one goal, one defensive error. That's what happened out there.Sad thing is, I can't see where the goal will come from. We are so far behind Chelsea, yet we finished ahead of them last season.Pogba fecked up.
He was blaming everyone and his dog for it but, not one person had the bollocks to have a go at him.
This team summed right up
can't wait, club will give them all 5 year extensions and double their salaries
You must confuse him with Rashford, who had several one-on-one opportunities on the right side.That guy flipping the bird lol
Hope so.
Yes, that is why he was upset, right.Bring in Sanches for Lukaku and Fella for Matic.Chelsea have dominated the ball, which was to be expected. We've got into good areas on some occasions, but unfortunately, we've not done anywhere near enough in the final third.
Second half, we need to be braver and quicker in possession.Alonso seems to drift everywhere so we need to exploit that. We normally see Lukaku take up the right channel so could be that we see it this half
Barcelona or an average Manchester United side. Hmmmm
The shocking thing for me is that after all this they still playing like strangers. It’s not like Chelsea has been pressing the hell out of us. I’m sick of this. Actually more tired and bored.Pathetic,just pathetic....Young’s struggling at RB,our Centre backs are a joke,Matics form is horrendous,Pogbas giving us nothing....Martial and Rashford have been poor...Horrible first half...
Agree, just we don't look like creating anything either....
Fair enough, mine is I don’t think we’ve been anywhere near as bad as people are making out on here. We’ve not been great, but not awful.
It wasn't entirely his fault. Him an Lindelof were supposed to switch and that didn't happen. It was a miscommunication between the two players or someone didn't do their job properly.
Souness would never have pushed his team to win the World Cup final either. Different types of players but he doesnt seem to get that.- Status
