Tbh I reckon Henderson saves one of theirs from that final
UEFA Super Cup
- Thread starter Deery
- Start date
Nice for Kepa.
The BT camera angle for the penalties though...
Why do they have to change things. I pray Sky stick to the side on view.

Not at all, they got lucky to get the clean sheets
fecking hell.
No idea, it’s actually a ridiculous advantage and still isn’t talked about enough. Pundits never mention it.
Chelsea had one high pressure kick and that was after they missed the first.
Sadly there is no need for one.
We know Ole isn't up there with he best managers.
The hope I guess is that hopefully he can be. Probably a naïve hope but as long as he is here it's one we got to pray for.
Right now his in game management is his worst attribute which is why we are such bottlers in cups especially.
Leaving De Gea on for penalities, Leaving Fred on when the red was guaranteed, Not subbing Pogba on in the first half in that game versus Leipzig.
The list goes on. Hopefully he learnt from those.
Weird.
That was a big game? I just came on here and saw the score. Had no idea it was on.
Tuchel wins that by doing what Solskjaer should have done, replacing the keeper
Are you sure? from the commentators reaction it’s just become a huge deal in the last 5 mins.
Erm, they had worse pens in that shootout. Not their fault they only had to put it past a deer in headlights.
All clubs do it nowadays.
I know it's been a while for your lot but you'll do it if you ever win something again.
Watch our shootout against Spurs last year and you'll see what I mean.
Like I said it's an easy mistake for oppo fans to make (I wouldn't know such detail about another club likely) but pundits and commentators paid to do their research for this to go over their head...
Mount's was top class, Rudiger with a straight run up with the keeper standing still watching it go to his right. Mount is quite a continental player in my view, Rudiger an erratic fighter defender, I guess the pens characterised that too.
That's their job and pens are always dramatic, even if it's in a friendly.
Tuchel also does not sit on his a** for 90 mins because he can't make up his mind whom to sub in.
Not that I believe in taking this as an excuse to s**t on Ole.
Fecking Degea. Should be second choice.
Despite them all downplaying it just before the shootout? Okay
youre clearly wumming now.
The mentality is clearly not the same. Rudiger treated his penalty like a friendly.
Yeah that's the part that stings more than them actually winning the trophy
I see this place is just gonna be another shitfest all season.
Constantly taking shots at Ole. Fawning over every other manager.

My question is why weren't Villarreal's pens that shit against us? They absolutely leathered them in.
Just makes it sweeter when he does well and they can't enjoy it
Villarreal could have taken penalties for a week against United and wouldn't have missed. Tonight they missed a few penalties handing the trophy to Chelsea. Just typical.
There is no good argument for having De Gea on for a penalty shootout regardless of the competition.
Especially when the keeper in the bench has an insane record at saving them.
Ole can't be defended on that decision.
All clubs do it nowadays.
I know it's been a while for your lot but you'll do it if you ever win something again.
IF we had made the same decision as you we would have been in this game tonight and maybe win it too (still fuming)
Pens always look shit if a goalie saves them.
Why? This is a much better angle.
To be fair, at least 2 of them were saveable. It just so happened we had a keeper who was crap at pens
Ole deserves to be called out for his terrible decision making. That PSG game where he simply refused to sub Fred and then the EL finals where he simply refused to make any subs for 90 mins, forcing an unwanted penalty shootout.
But then this is a new season. And at least I have new hopes. Hope lessons were learnt.
Stacking up these European cups now Chelsea no matter how insignificant some people see them it has to be said..
Probably win the CWC for the first time in December against Al-Ahly or whoever too.

Fully warranted shots. Not changing the keeper for that shootout is one of the most brainless manager decisions seen last season. The fecking world knew we would lose with De Gea standing (and that's all he did) between the posts.
They didn't miss. They where saved
We fielded a keeper who can't save penalities. Only the management to blame.
It's not even hindsight cause everyone in the forum's was saying to sub in Henderson if to went to penalities.
Went first against us. Fatigue possibly.
Im really not, I just think they got lucky with their draw, lucky to have city completely choke in the final and even then shouldn't have won.
Tuchel is clear at this point, there never was any doubt.
Only? Didn't Bruno choose to let them go first?
I've changed my mind on this. You must all refer to Chelsea as "Super European Champions League winners".
God forbid we win the World Club cup. I'll be even more unbearable.

It's true.
Ole has poor in game management. Everyone knows that.
It's one of his biggest flaws that needs to be ironed out
Ole himself knows he is not as good as Tuchel who is not a brilliant manager to begin with. We have to accept the fact that Ole is staying for many years and hope by adding more and more quality players we close the gap between our team and our rivals who have better managers. I have faith in the squad.
