I can't stress enough how essential signing kounde should be, chalolah is an unknown entity, tomori scored a screamer and also looked good at first, I will wait till we play Manchester city, we had alot of possession, it's easy for players to look good

Why? Chalobah is an 'extra' defender, who normally will be taking his spot as a squad player but has taken his chance beautifully and given the coaching staff something to think about.

We have James who held his own against ManCitys and Madrids in the CL. So why are we suddenly worried about them? We have James, Azpi, Silva, Chris, Zouma, Rudi....all defenders, and some that can play multiple positions. And this is all without Chalobah.

Why should we sign Kounde? We are not threatened. We are very good.

Ilaix Moriba is who we should be trying to get on the dirt cheap for midfield and forget this Kounde business. Chalobah has taken that spot, and for free.

Off to a great start.

Who's Kounde? We got Chalobah! Another year, another solid youth player.

What's happening with Chilwell?

Pulisic come.on man.

Werner again.

Werner.

Great half.

BlueMann:
Puli baaby

Nice build up from Azpi and Mount again. Those two are combining really well.

They are.

Goallllll

Mount. Sharp sharp tins

The guy is top class. League player!

macjireh:
looks like Leeds will go back to relegation D's season

No way. They are way better than all the contenders for relegation....including Arsenal.

Even salah was once overlooked for Willian so nothing surprising there. So miss with this RLC talks whose best could only relegate Fulham

Stupid comments don't count. You dare not say this when RLC was balling under Sarri, when he was having his best season at 23.

What happened to RLC? For those of you that don't know, when RLC injured his Achilles, his left calf halved in size. He was reported at the time to have torn his Achilles so badly, it was like a horse tail. Even The Athletic carried this story at the time.

Talking about calves halving its size, I know exactly what RLC is going through as on the 10th Aug, 2014, I broke my Fibular in 3 places and ruptured my Posterior and Anterior Talofibular ligaments during a 5-aside game. After coming off a cast post 6 months, I lost 70% of the size of my left calf muscle. 7 years later, it's still only about 60% of its full size pre-injury and I cannot run for more than 60m at full speed without serious pain.

I bet you RLC has still not grown the calf back to normal size, as it's about the most difficult muscle to grow at will. Also consider that the calf is about the most important muscle for top performances for an athlete, and you start to understand what he is going through. I have lived this experience.

So you can sit behind your keyboard, make dill comments, not apply logic and call people crap without having a clue of what these guys have to go through physically and mentally to overcome an injury, and then get back to form.

Mehn I'm like a proud father watching his only son that made it

Proud Father! You made it. He's going to score bucket loads. 25 minimum.

I won't argue this again cus it's obvious even to the blind that RLC can't lace Ross Barkley's boot. The difference between both of them is like day and night.

Is that so? So which is Tuchel, The Seeing or The Blind? RLC has been in every pre-season team, including the Super Cup. Both players fit. Both players having equal chances to impress Tuchel.

Tuchel can't see day and night but you can. Lace boot ko. Boot lace ni.

popizaino:
Just like RLC,CHO is about to serve you L that you wont be able to dodge. An obvious one.

Hehehe. Coming from someone who is carrying a big L over Ross Barkley. I thought that matter was already settled. Barkley has been transfer-listed

FBS:
Odoi. We are looking at you.

CHO is not a wing back, and does not have the qualities to do so effectively. We should be pushing for Tuchel to play CHO in his best position, so we can see the best of his potential.

This is similar to playing Chalobah as a left winger, and then criticising him for not being on point.

For those of us who have longed for this era of seeing the youth making it to the first team and playing competitively, we are now worried that we might mis-manage the fruits of decades of hard work.

Livramento was made for that WB position but somehow, we let him slip through.

I want to see CHO played up front on the left for a consistent number of appearances.

Exonerate1:
Mount was the worst player on the pitch. One penalty doesn't change anything

Hehehe. These guys are still talking.

BlueAngel444:
Chelsea now have two Cup Winners’ Cups, two Europa Leagues, two Champions Leagues and two SuperCups.

Loud it!

Winning mentality baby!

Yesssssssss

Kepaaaaaaaa

Rudi baba!

Kepsasa

Unbelievable. Lazy kick

What's happening that I don't know about? Is Kepa a better pen goalie?

nihilistjnr:
Mount dey worry o.

This season might be the one for this young man.

Everything crisp, sharp and decisive.

Damn!
