It is not too difficult to call when you have watched and coached many games you will know how to separate the wheat from the chaff. Also, the coach seems confused at the moment Caicedo is still unfit why not ease him in and play Ugochukwu? Then why play Gallagher as 6 and Enzo ahead of him when he's not good at receiving the pass and dictating play from deep? Why play Chillwell as a winger when you have Sterling and Madueke available? We should have kept Lukaku since there's no experience striker available and Broja is injured.
His substitutions after the first 2 were disastrous in this game
Poch’a formation and selection is the problem, he is acting all nice and trying to please all the players. With the money spent so far we are still playing Gallagher as number 6, Pep won’t even dare do that seeing that Gallagher is not technically good.

Enzo is a CM, Bench Gallagher play Enzo and Caicedo in midfield, Palmer as number 10. Play 4231 formation. Bench either Colwill or Chilwell.

He is acting nice to the players and making them comfortable even when they are unimpressive. See how teams like Tottenham and man city are winning convincingly. We rarely come back from a goal down.

Won't understand taking off Chilwell and playing Colwill at LB while chasing a goal
Colwill and Chilwel are currently problem to Poch, he is a naive coach that can’t take ruthless decision and it’s going to cost him his job.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by hensben(m): 5:07pm On Sep 02, 2023
Poch naivety is the reason the team is struggling. He is a pleaser, can’t bench either Chilwell or Cowill thereby limiting the team’s cohesive play.

Somehow Malang Sarr escaped the clear out.
Somehow Chelsea offered the shortest contract to Humphreys, 4years extension.

Somehow Chelsea made 300m and bought for 420m.

Somehow this window is 10/10 only if we win trophies this season.
We will definitely win a trophy.

For those of you saying we are signing potentials instead of so called ‘established’ players this is how you build a team that will be formidable soon. Any difference between J Felix and Palmer but one is seen as already grown player even if there is no evident of growth like that but will be more expensive in wages and sale, even on loan. Havertz and Mount didn’t work out even if they won ucl but no consistency. I understand we are used to instant success in the past but we have to be patient this time.

From the little I’ve seen, Palmer has more influence, and is much more effective and deadly on the final third than both Angelo and Noni.

But like someone rightly said, these are more of inexperienced lads we are assembling. When push comes to shove, I doubt they’ll be able to carry the team like top players do.

It just feels like Arsenal of yore. We are excited about this project but are convinced it’s not going to transcend beyond beautiful football with zero titles.
palmer experienced champions mentality, he saw and played some part in the victory of man city at the top. Palmer has talent and a winning mentality unlike Angelo and Madueke. See how Sterling game raised this season because our team play has improved under Poch. Palmer Jackson Sterling upfront until Nkunku return. Nkunku will play false 9 sometimes when he returns.

What was the reason Chelsea with Kante suffered heavy defeats

3-0 vs Barcelona
3-0 vs Bayern
6-0 v Man City
Jorginho aka Bousquet twin.

Why should set our bar low?

We already have too much quantity and not enough quality. Either we get quality or we use what we have

Players who can play wings include

Sterling
Mudryk
Madueke
Chukwuemeka
Nkunku
Maatsen

Not to mention Gabriel out on loan

So no need looking for right winger if they are not significantly better at RW than the aforementioned. In that case, only Raphinha and Kudus tick the box from all the transfer targets mentioned so far
Raphinha should be a cheaper option but that will be an insult to us if we sign him.

Nigeriagood:
What you said about him not being super impressive but just doing his job properly is what made him so good. He also in my opinion made Xavi and Iniesta better knowing he would be there to cover gave them more freedom to attack in possession and also allowed them to stay in more dangerous positions out of possession. He's often overlooked because everyone just talked about how good Xavi and iniesta were which they were great but he really helped get the best out of them,People always say it was easy for him as he had Xavi and Iniesta beside him but imo it was easy for them because he was beside them. He was always available for them to tick the ball over and keep it moving. He absolutely dictated the play and was always where he should be.

It's hard to really praise defensive midfielders as the work they do is forgettable as there's so much of it. Stats don't help them out either but just go back and watch matches from the early to mid 2010's and you'll see why he's rated so highly. It's great having amazing superstars on your team but Busquets was irreplaceable,hope you read all of it 😂
But Kante, Casemiro, makelele and now Rodri made fifa 11. All this you Dey talk na shalaye. Bousquet was a carry along player both in Spanish national team and Barca, he did nothing extraordinary rather side and back passes. He was lucky to be in a league that don’t require pace and strength set up. You think Pep will use a DM like Bousquet in epl. He was the major reason Barca suffered heavy defeats from other top clubs in ucl in recent years.

Big game player wey no fit win kpangolo with the Ivorian golden generation

A player with about same epl goals with yakubu aiuegbeni shouldn’t be taken seriously

Fraudgba for a reason
Ignorant. Drogba brought Ivory Coast to limelight and took them to their first World Cup by scoring decisive goals. Every news outlet carried it then but I will just drop one here. https://amp.sportsmole.co.uk/football/chelsea/transfer-talk/news/real-madrid-move-for-drogba_28943.html

Henry had to run to Barca to win ucl, he couldn’t do it with Arsenal whereas, Drogba did.
