Timo Werner is getting worse. His passes aren’t quick or precise. He doesn’t take players on. Doesn’t poach in the box. Something needs to change.

Something about Man Utd fans wanting Ten Hag when he lost on the same night as them to a guy named Darwin is just too ironic. Survival of the fittest :).

What’s the transfer strategy here? Never concede a goal and let Alonso bang in goals at striker? Chilwell Alonso James Chalobah Ampadu Cucurella Azpilicueta KK Silva Fofana Mendy

No matter how much I can respect what you did inside the pitch, those remarks about Iran Culture, Iran National Team and my Players are a disgrace to Football. Nobody can hurt our integrity if it is not at our level, of course. (...)

Today everyone wants players like Rafael Leão, Florian Wirtz and Joško Gvardiol. All shined at the 2021 u21 Euro and 2 years later are a combined +£200m value. Chelsea can replicate those profiles with Noni Madueke, Cole Palmer and Levi Colwill now at a fraction of the cost.

Chelsea have scored 5 goals from 80 shots in the PL. Only 2 teams are less efficient (EVE, LUT). This shouldn't be a surprise. Haaland scored more goals last year (36) than Jackson, Mudryk, Madueke & Palmer have scored in their combined careers (34). Raw is an understatement.

Fulham tonight.

Cucurella limiting Saka today. Gallagher completely neutralizing Ødegaard. Enzo & Caicedo impenetrable for 85 minutes. Mudryk tactical position against the Ben White outball. Colwill stopping Jesus false 9. All this means more than you can believe. Pochettino ⏳.

Lavia is Chelsea's best all around midfielder. Better ball progressor than Enzo, Gallagher & Caicedo. Better tackler than Enzo & Gallagher. Better passer than Caicedo & Gallagher. Ranks either 1st or 2nd in most metrics over the other 3. Interesting to see how Poch manages him.

This needs to be the wake up call for Colwill & Badiashile starting together. Thaigo Silva is incredible but he can’t be starting every week anymore.

Biggest differences between this team and Tuchel’s CL winners is how little they work together. Poch + the players are to blame. Good example on the Palace goal where nobody is working together. Badiashile ball-watching, Colwill misreading the cross & Caicedo is very lazy.

Winning unconvincingly is nice but it’s really shouldn’t change your mind about anything. Chelsea still have massive problems showing in every game. Defensive mistakes. Midfield flat footed. Forwards missing chance after chance. Weird subs. Poor in game management. “Project”
