BTW even if it means playing Chukwuemeka or Mount or even RLC in midfield, let this be the last time Cucurella and Chilwell start together on one flank.
BlueAngel444 is nowhere to be found..

Cucurella looking so clueless at LCB. What a rubbish team selection by Potter. I did say it before Chelsea and Brighton are 2 very different clubs

Biggest positive is that we're still unbeaten after 8 games, even though we aren't playing particularly well.

nothing positive about this game. Wait till we meet teams with good attackers. Kepa can't always save us.

Took you guys long to see how shit Chilwell is. One of the worst players I've ever seen


Some of us have always known but if we say it we will be in trouble whenever they have one good game in 10 games.

A midfielder assisted for Man United,,but no Chelsea midfielder would have rescued us with a brilliant pass to goal if we were trailing. We suggested such players but they said they are ok with mediocre players.

Arsenal topping the league, lost against ManU.

Klopp and Liverpool, lost against ManU.

Conte that is topping Chelsea, lost against ManU.

Chelsea with about 4 different manager are yet to win ManU in EPL since 2017.

First 30 minutes today, we were almost getting mutilated by ManU until Potter made a change, just one sub that changed our story and made ManU beg for draw in 90mins.

I may not rate Potter so high but you need to be a foolish Fraudvertz fan to slander him in this match. This same Potter won ManU 4:0 last season and won them again this season with mid table team.

Cry today, cry tomorrow, that Kovacic introduction saved us and Fraudvertz getting glued on bench saved us too.

Chalobah has really improved.

He always had it. Tuchel just killed his confidence after a mistake at Liverpool in January, dragging him before numerous video panels to hammer on his mistake in that game and dropping him cos of that one mistake until injury forced him back in in the cup finals.

There are very few centrebacks that can hold their own as a central midfielder in Ligue1 like Chalobah did. That should tell anyone he has the technical tools, we can see he already has the physicality and speed, the only question is whether he has the confidence (or will be given the confidence) to demand the ball and feel like part of the team. It is much easier playing CB than DM, we only need to check if he is committed to defending which he has shown

This is a boy who has pocketed Luis Diaz and Rafael Leao twice. He made ETH take off Sancho early and Rashford today

I don't think you will see any centreback capable of doing the below in midfield. Chalobah is nowhere near his full confidence yet like Rudiger was in his final season when he would just get the ball and run past players on that left. If you see the way Chalobah would receive the ball in midfield under pressure, turn and run past players at Lorient, you will know he is still feeling like a small boy in Chelsea from the way he plays. What we need to do is give such a youngster confidence, not hammer him for one or two mistakes when our established pros are even making mistakes more regularly. Below is Chalobah playing midfield in Ligue1. None.of our defenders reach this level of technique except maybe Silva.

I remember suggesting him for a midfield role last year and some were ridiculing my take. The guy is good and with more game he will smoothen the rough edges in his game and dominate.

I regretted he was sack but we all know Chelsea n manager..

I knew n expected d sack though cos he was clueless in d transfer window....

How on earth he didnt think about any midfielder even with more than 250m.........

I lost hope on him when he bought fofana ahead of chalobar

So he played midfield at Ligue 1 smiley His technique is quite good, I didn't really follow him up before TT brought him to join the first team. I'm really happy with his progress. He needs to drop more of those long passes I'm seeing here. He used to be a bit jittery then so I wasn't so convinced about him. But I love what I'm seeing from him. If he continues like this I'm sure he'll get more confident on the ball
