oga hold your L gracefully jare

you were the one making excuses for chris today

he was implicated in the first goal and went down to easily, you said its because Rudiger is 3cm taller. meanwhile i saw Azpi push that same Lukaku off the ball by the touchline in the same game...and Azpi is still smaller.

second goal, you're blaming rudiger for allowing a cross that was going straight to Chris. All he had to do is keep his head.

Nobody has scapegoated Chris. Until last week, i think we were almost all unanimous in believing he's one of thr best players at the club.

However, when he fücked up like he did against Barca, and was duly criticised, people like you came out to cape for him and try to blame Fab.

when he messed up for first goal today again, you said he did nothing wrong because he banged his head. Even Jamie Carragher at half time mentioned that Chris should have stood up quicker than he did to defend that ball.

when he messed up for the second, now it's rudigers fault.

is Chris immune from criticism because he's a youth player?

Are we no longer allowed to point out obvious truths because Chris is 21?

You are scapegoating Chris when you are say it was his fault for the first goal.
He should bully Lukaku. Is Chris going to develop muscle required to do that overnight?

Chris plays as an intelligent defender who uses his positioning and spatial awareness for clever defending and interception and he does so fantastically well. Azpi and Rudiger are aggressive in their approach. Chris isn't. Probably never will be. So he was on Lukaku as he would. It's not a mistake. He can't manufacture aggression overnight. So why blame him?


Meanwhile you don't hold Bakayoko to the same standards. That's why it is scapegoating.

Skimpledawg:
Why da heck is wrong with Chris?

Niqqa has caused us 2 matches now.

Nothing is wrong with Chris jare. Chris is a fantastic young defender (only 21) who will go on to achieve great things.
He has prevented infinitely more goals and won more points this season, than he has lost.
We should desist from the business of persistent scapegoating. We need to accept that sometimes, players makes mistakes and move on.

We were being told earlier that there are only a few things Rudiger will allow and we watch how Lukaku was allowed to look like Messi, while Rudiger was watching awe of Lukaku's grace. Chris was rooted to his feet but Rudiger should have shut Lukaku down.

What is Conte doing ?

Morata and Moses need to have a rest. They are impeding the flow of all good works up front.

Nihilist:
Chris was bullied. Head collision happened after Lukaku had time to hold off chris, raise the ball in the air, trap it and lay it off.

Rudiger would not have allowed that. i doubt even Azpi would.

Rudiger is 3cm taller and 12kg heavier than Chris.

Nihilist:
Christensen is really pissing me off.

back to back games where hes been implicated in a goal conceded

Christensen was rattled by a head collision. I am not sure what he did wrong there.

Moses. JEsus!

Even the Anti-Hazard crew are loving that return pass.

Goaaaallllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll

He is never looking up Moses. That's the second time someone is dropping deep and expecting a square pass and he can't see it.

Roland17:
Moses is seeing a lot the ball and space, he has to do better with his final ball.

This has always been Moses' problem sadly.

Bold from Conte. The bar again!

Ibime:
Am I the only one who thinks Fab should get to that ball? He even saw that ball from 15 yards away and know he needed to move to get there.

There is a way a lazy nigga would be on his heels, he will make a reachable ball turn into a calamity.

Indeed. I just saw the clip again. Fab was lazy.

Could have done with the 1-0 lead. Bad pass from Christensen but Fab was sleeping.
It's not a bad result.

Anything can happen in the second. I think this leg proves we can hurt them.
Fab should not be playing at the Camp Nou.

Foul after foul and these guys re not getting yellow cards. What is going on?

Morata on.

Kante working overtime.

Error!

Gooooaaaallllll

Kante working overtime

Top class stuff. Boys came to play. We deserve a goal for the effort.
I hope the ref is not playing games. Ratikic should have been off.

Williannnn. Oh my goodness.

Jesus!

We are doing well.

Here we go.

Good result going into the Barca game.

Nihilist:
