Before things deteriorated to this level,we should have called back Lukaku and play 4-4-2 formation.

Flat midfield or is it straight line midfield. Havertz or Fofana should be asked to support Lukaku upfront. Enzo Fernandez,Kante,Mount,Gallagher in a straight line midfield.

Erase the idea of playing like prime Barca when you have no decent ball carrier like iniesta or Hazard and deploy carragher to crouch approach, the ball that misses Lukaku won't miss Havertz or Fofana.Trust me we won't labour for goals or be in this kind of situation with winless runs with such approach.

The earlier we realise we don't have decent wide men on the wings who can't create on a one on one situation the better it is for us to go back to the fundamentals of having two men upfront. My ten cent.
As much as I like your idea, do you honestly think Lukaku is what we need upfront?

Excelent rating, yesterday's game was an eyesore, but who gave Chalobah 3/10?
Chalobah should not get more than 1 while Sterling rating should be negative -
Mitoma roasted him on several occasions but I think he got a few things right. Generally speaking though, the team's performance was terrible. Brighton played us on our pitch like we were the visitors.

But remember we have one of the worst coaches in history.

That said, this is football, anything can happen against Real Madrid.

He hates Kepa cos of what he did to Sarri not cause of short arms as if that will change or na him make our players no dey score. He can't bring himself to forgive and forget but he is free to continue.

Na here we dey.

ezra01:
this issue about kepa should please stop.
we should analyse kepa objectively not agenda (ly) 😂😂
I feel kepa is a good goal keeper but not a great goal keeper..
every great teams needs a great goalie
kepa has never given us that assurance cech gave us and this somehow affects defenders confidence..
having a short hand is not the cause of him not being a good goalie
kepa is not good enough for Chelsea..
onana is shorter and I rate onana ahead of kepa
We are Chelsea,, we demand world class players who fits into our play..
not people like havertz who after 3 season has not convinced 65% of the fans with his performance
Again, we are all on the same page here. No one, no one will say Kepa is the greatest keeper ever and definitely he ain't no Cech.

But person no watch game but kept hammering on a single issue which will not change abi height na talent?

The issue will stop when he stops dragging Kepa for no reason. If he doesn't stop, I will not stop. This one, I dey ready wella.

Typical. Always chatting nonsense.

Nobody mentioned you but nah guilty conscience and hate dey worry you. Continue.

Focus on the major issue within the team - lack of goals or pattern.

Game wey you no watch, you dey complain.

When I said you lack basic understanding on this game, I wasn't joking. Keep using stats and data like Boli.

Mention Kepa unnecessarily and I will be here.

Dude is fond of hating on people for something they have no control over. It's obvious that shorter Goalies concede long range shots and fail to claim corners, the question is, how will Kepa suddenly improve his height at the age of 28?

Kepa was benched for a long time, he was patient and worked hard. When long arm Mendy started drinking goals like kunu with high profile mistakes in high stake matches, Kepa reclaimed his place. Now, even the blind can see that Kepa has improved his reflexes to a significant extent.

He has pointed out Kepa, Jorginho and Felix as our fundamental weakness just because of their physique. These 3 will leave and our problem will still be here and the fools who support everything he says will wait for him to Identify another fundamental weakness in our team.

While Kepa might not be world class, I fail to see how he is the cause of our terrible form which is magnified by that bloody scammer Lampfraud who has come again to steal a living off us!.
Bro, that's the thing. No one has ever said Kepa is world class. But one person that can't see past past mistakes is yarning nonsense.
We were here when Mendy came on and he was doing well and we praised him. All of a sudden he started having brain farts. I am pretty sure the length of his arm or hand did not decrease. So what happened?

If one is going to criticise a keeper it should be for other reasons but not cause of the length of his arm - that is not going to change - not now!

You have a coach who doesn't know is left from right, doesn't even understand the basics as coach, yet I am supporting him because I want the club to do well. If he succeeds, the club succeeds, it's that simple.

We are still in the UCL and we have to score goals. That is the only way forward. Hope still dey.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by FBS: 10:34am On Apr 16, 2023
Olodo. You can keep hammering on Kepa all you want and we will keep calling you out.

You obviously have no clue how this game is played.

Your players can't create, can't score, can't control the game or play on the counter, the coach is a dullard yet you are focusing on offside in basketball.

You think carrying your one-pack and watching football on tv qualifies you as a pundit? Nah, I already said it before, you don't understand this game.

Keep hammering on Kepa unnecessarily and I will keep hammering at you.

You'll need to control the game first. Unless you want to play counter football
The aim of any football match is to win, how you do it is up to you.

You are not going to control the game for the sake of it.

The goal remains the same - score goals!
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by FBS: 6:41am On Apr 16, 2023
Our focus should be scoring goals. You can't win a match without scoring more than your opponent.
This is what football is about.

I am in serious pain.

We are seeing our team collapse, and we cannot do anything about it.

How is Madueke not getting appearance in this last match? Why is Ziyech getting a nod before him?
Boli is your answer.

Man is intent on destroying this club. We are praying for a miracle and we might just get one.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by FBS: 3:18am On Apr 16, 2023
Objectivity is lost on some people and they are filled with hate. They don't understand this game. They never did. Speaking big grammar will not improve their knowledge of this game. Yes I said it.

Height no be talent and having short hands is not going to grow overnight. Anyone expecting Kepa to grow longer hands within the season or in this life time should have their brains checked.

The same Kepa that pulled a point blank save that was heading for the top corner, that kept his near post wella, the same Kepa that is the reason we are not in relegation zone and goal difference no dey too bad. Yet!

Brighton had 10 shots on target. 10! and 26 shots in total.

Anyone coming for Kepa should get ready, na here I dey. If he makes a mistake, I will call him out and when he pulls outstanding saves I will also praise him. Same goes for any player really. I stand by my word.

For those that watch football with hate and just looking to blame players unnecessarily.

I am referring to those that have never played football 11 a side before even though in their minds they have.

I am referring to those with ego size of epiphytic orchids. They think they have ego but they don't.

Chelsea player ratings

GK: Kepa Arrizabalaga - 8/10 - The only reason Chelsea weren't four or five goals behind in the first half and ten or eleven by the final whistle. Excellent.

RB: Trevoh Chalobah - 3/10 - Ruined by Mitoma on a number of occasions apart from one excellent challenge midway through the first half.

CB: Wesley Fofana - 6/10 - Chelsea's best defender for the most part but did not cover himself in glory for the equaliser.

CB: Benoit Badiashile - 3/10 - A poor clearance for the equaliser but hadn't really inspired a lot of confidence before or after then anyway.

LB: Ben Chilwell - 3/10 - Seen arguing with Mudryk over positioning. Nowhere near his best at either end of the pitch.

DM: Enzo Fernandez - 5/10 - Chelsea's main creative outlet in midfield had a tough battle up against Caicedo. Usually came off second-best.

CM: Denis Zakaria - 3/10 - Offered nothing in the midfield battle and left Chelsea hanging on at the back at times.

CM: Conor Gallagher - 5/10 - Scored a scrappy goal and put himself about without ever really offering anything of real quality, and yet was probably still Chelsea's best attacker.

RW: Christian Pulisic - 2/10 - Largely uninvolved.

ST: Raheem Sterling - 2/10 - Didn't offer much but wasn't helped by Chelsea's determination to fire crosses in towards him.

LW: Mykhailo Mudryk - 5/10 - A fast start which yielded the assist for Gallagher's opener but faded as the game went on.

Substitutes

Mateo Kovacic (56' for Fernandez) - 4/10 - Didn't offer the sort of control asked of him.

Hakim Ziyech (56' for Pulisic) - 5/10 - Fairly uninspiring.

Reece James (56' for Fofana) - 5/10 - Not his usual self yet again but his introduction did at least coincide with a drop-off from Mitoma.

Joao Felix (56' for Sterling) - 5/10 - Rarely involved.

Mason Mount (74' for Zakaria) - 5/10 - A challenging cameo.

Manager

Frank Lampard - 3/10 - Prioritising the Real Madrid game is about the only thing Lampard got right here. Had absolutely no answer to anything Brighton were doing but kept his heavy hitters healthy for the game that really matters.

I can't imagine the level we found ourselves, we were reduced to a mid-table team, and even the bookmakers gave us 4 odds to beat Brighton while Brighton was given just 2 Odds to beat us at Stamford Bridge.
Wonderful.
There is something fundamentally wrong with this team.

Well, I guess at this stage, we just go game by game. No other choice.

Hope still dey.

We were completely outplayed in every department in the first half but kudos to Gallagher for getting that goal and Kepa for making those saves. It could have been worse.

Not sure of what to expect in the second half. undecided
