My fear is that Rudiger isn't too comfortable playing as LCB.




I'm not sure if Luiz will play as the sweeper or as a DM. Either ways, Christensen is starting, it could be as a DM or as the Sweeper.

Honestly, I expected Conte to switch to a highly structured 3-5-2 formation this season, with Kante, Matic and Fabregas having their roles distributed evenly among a destroyer, a supporting passer, and a creator.

This configuration could have seen us address lingering issues like being at numerical disadvantage when up against a well drilled side, lacking creativity from deep and being dominate.

A shot at that with Kante, Bakayoko and Fabregas, with Hazard and Morata up front won't be bad either.

Our squad isn't good enough for 3-5-2.

You can't take away Pedro's goals just like that,we are not sure whether Morata will score 20 league goals...Will hazard score 20?
Fabregas? Kante?? How many goals can they get between them

Our wingbacks aren't good for 3-5-2 either, 3-5-2 means they are the only one on the wings and won't get much support from Hazard and Pedro like 3-4-3,you really think Alonso and Moses can do the job attacking and defending at top speed??

For me,Kante is a DM,anything else is being too defensive especially when you are playing 3 at the back..... He is our Casemiro

Kante is the destroyer
Fabregas is the passer
We need a Lampard to play 3-5-2 successfully

What are the club looking to achieve with all this shemozzle?

Make them sell the tout and focus on other pressing issues na.

Na that £75m from China still dey pain them. They have already sold Costa for that amount in their minds.

I don't know how Jese didn't work out at PSG. I once touted him for our 3rd striker/3rd winger position. I'm sure anyone coulda bought him for £20m this summer which is the same price PSG paid 12 months ago.
that jese guy is not serious..

Atleti ready to bid £41m plus £9m add-ons for Costa but Chelsea asking for £60m. Nna, let's not get too greedy here, that amount is enough.

Tomorrow's game


Chelsea 1(Alonso) Burnley 2 (Rudiger own goal, Jeff Hendrick)
you saw it here first.

Yes after last week's prediction, I only missed out on the correct scoreline but it was spot on, on who will be the victors.

Well on today's match. Although Spurs and City will be Man United's major title rivals, I would have loved for Chelsea to take points off Spurs, but unfortunately I don't see that happening. It will be an easy victory for spurs, with a Chelsea player being sent off.

Spurs 2 (Alli, Eriksson) Chelsea 0.

You are right about rudiger however I think he was solid against Burnley playing in Cahill's position.

He may surprise me especially tho. bcuz I vehemently criticized him after watching him play once or twice.

I hope he he takes Cahill's position or Chris takes it.

I am thinking Azpi and Chris will flank rudiger against spurs while Luiz will play beside kante.

If these screenshots do not answer your questions, then your case is not ordinary. I was having a clean convo with that guy b4 u jumped in with a totally irrelevant reply. We were clearly talking about what they did for their respective new teams not their previous teams.

He was like Pogba wasn't really signed to score goals and I can remember some of pple cursing him and wondering why ur club paid 89m for him, so, I decided to ask sekratus what exactly he was signed to do since it's not really goals. Na u enter convo with his irrevancies.

you've choosen not to understand what larride's been giving you all day. I'm sure you want me to say we bought Pogba to win the EPL right? Can you list just one player that'll guarantee a team the EPL title regardless of price?

You're creating a new argument to benefit yourself. I could do that and say we bought Pogba to win the Europa league title. That means, you guys bought Rudigér and Bakayoko to retain the EPL, no?

So yes, we broke the tranfer record for a young CM that's won 4 consecutive Serie A titles, UCL Finalist, FIFA World XI (featuring the likes of Iniesta and Modric). Yes, that's what you break a transfer record for. Every player who once broke that record has done something spectacular in Europe. Little wonder Kunta Kinte cost just £30M. I mean, you don't pay £30M for one of the hottest players around that Barca, RM and PSG all want to get, you break the damn transfer record for that.

If you can't understand this or choose not to, that's not my problem.

BTW, its not Pogba vs Kante, we just outlining the "all round contribution" of two black french midfielders.

Pogba: 2goals 2assists - Kante: all round contribution; zero, zilch, nada, nothing, etc..

Our current squad is good enough for a 3-5-2.

Pedro was scoring freely because after the wing-backs, the wingers have more important roles to play in a 3-4-3. Shift the attention to the two forwards in a 3-5-2 and watch the goals come. On the attack it can resemble a lopsided 3-3-4. That's four men coming at you, with a solid base behind them just in case things go awry.

Yeah the wing-backs are required to put in a titanic shift each game to ensure their team don't end up playing a narrow, fruitless game. I can trust Moses with that, Alonso could be our only worry though, just like he is in the current setup.

However, the beauty of this formation is having three in the middle though. If I were in charge, I will give Fabregas the regista role - to be a deep-lying playmaker, with two prototypical central midfield destroyers (Kante and Bakayoko) playing ahead of him.

Too much sauce, too much juice.

yea right, that means you'll keep winning that title so long he's still part of the team?

but your comrade said he was bought to fix your midfield, not to win the EPL.
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Dhellake: 10:13am On Aug 20, 2017
We should revert to 4-3-3 or 4-2-3-1. This 3 at the back formation has lasted long enough.

Should we now fry plantain with this or what exactly.

About ur lengthy write up, I'm glad u know what my question was about, whichever way u chose to twist is none of my business.

You are here shouting goals and assists for a midfielder, 2moro,u will come here to tell us he was not signed to score goals and assists.

We at Chelsea didn't buy Kante for his goals and assists, if he scores, it's a plus, what we got him for, he's already doing.

Don't come here and bore us with ur senseless rants about Pogba.

Quit telling me about why he cost ur club 89m, I know all these already, atop telling me what I didn't ask you.

Pogba was so good last season Mourinho had to fork out another 40m for a midfielder, only ur Maga of a club will buy a midfielder for 89m when there are cheaper midfielders that will do better than him and cost far less.

That is my point, pay attention.
