Stop bringing Lampard into any conversation about the players. The less said the better

Although if I remember correctly, that was a disciplinary issue

Can't hold his own in a 4 man defense? - Strange cos I seem to remember Alonso being one of Spain best players in the last Euros.
conte came to Chelsea he saw alonso’s defensive weakness and chose to play 3-4-3 to hide that weakness
Even Sarri had to go with Emerson for some important games
Part of the reason Chelsea conceded 50 league goals in Lampard’s first season was due to playing a back four with alonso as a guaranteed starter who lacked the defensive positioning to protect his back line

Rest with ur Chillwell/James hatred..

James's recent performances have made u pipe down on ur James hate.

If asked to choose between Baba Rahman and Chillwell, we know u would still prefer Baba Rahman..
The problem with you lot is your inability to prove me wrong hence ur personal attacks.

Who on this thread wouldnt agree James has improved.

Do u still see all those negative back passes that used to dominate his game last season . Think for yourself when watching a football match and stop coming here to regurgitate populist talks.

U didnt even notice James and Chilwell have been asked to occupy different positions. Challenge the football takes, u cant, its all personal attacks.

I have never criticized any footballer beyond his footballing abilities, not everything is hate

Strongly Disagree. Pace Yes. I dont think he's even a better defender

Same Chilwell that just became a first team player few weeks back. The recency bias on here is shocking
He wasn't a first team player last season, both under Lampard and Tuchel?

Personal attack? Lmao grin grin

Ur hatred for Chillwell/James is well documented on this platform..

I should challenge the shit u cook up in ur head and call football takes like u saying Alonso is a better defender than Chillwell and Alonso was Spain's best player in the last Euros (Same Euros Alonso was not part of)? grin grin

Everyone with half a brain knows Alonso is a beast going forward and a liability defensively cos of his lack of pace..

Nor blame me boss, it looked like you were literally saying he only recently broke into the first team, even though he's usurped Alonso more than once.

But I get your point.

Hmm, chiesa has just started following Chelsea FC and our key players on Instagram. Is he really sending a message to us? Does this mean this chiesa rumour to Chelsea is true?
I don't even rate the guy that much Sha, his numbers are paltry.
You forget that last summer clubs were offering €100m for him, even when a young more profilic bundesliga player, sancho, was to be sold.


If the rumor is true that Chelsea is buying Chiesa but not for 80+m, and not with so many attackers we have in the team alreadyhuh Pulisic, Ziyech?

Unhappy with Chilwell's injury especially given our tight fixture schedule in December

Anyway, I feel better with Alonso as LWB than Chilwell albeit marginally.

Pace isnt everything in football. Chilwell for the most part is someone who annoys me with his interpretation of football. Doesnt know where to move to, where to pass, when to move, when to do 1-2's. We lose a lot of flow and fluidity with him on the pitch. I'm not sure his brain connects with the football he plays

Although the problem with Alonso is how his levels start to drop once he starts to play plenty games. However, with the switch that TT made recently (where our WB's now occupy those half space position). He's someone who'll benefit a lot.

Hmm. This is our most dangerous period in the last 5 seasons. The next 7 matches will determine if we are serious about winning the league this season or not.
Last season under lampard, after 12 games, we had conceded only 7 goals and were top of the table only for it to go downhill pretty fast. We really need to show consistency in the next few games
Honestly Lampard was unlucky that period that's why there were those who questioned his sacking, and one viable answer was that Tuchel was available.

Even if we don't win united I see us still pulling through to January

Ibime, take a look at this thread. I think it helps in further elucidating jorginho's role in our team and tuchels system.

From people way dey watch ball

Jorginho's ball-progression numbers have consistently worsened on a yearly basis and the drop-off has been especially noticeable under Tuchel.

Tuchel has asked Jorginho to cut out risky passes and has made him stick to his strength of circulating the ball over shorter distances.

Anything to spite Terry.

The time frame is 2011-2021 but you had to bring in Carvalho that left Chelsea in 2010.

Essien went on loan around 2012. Why should he be there?

For me, the lineup is perfect. Ashley Cole is the only person that could have entered there. But who should he displace? Fabregas?
Drogba also left Chelsea in 2012.

Asides Costa, which other striker performed better or did more than Drogba in the last decade? Or have you forgotten the reason why the 'number 9 curse' is a thing?

Played a key role in our maiden UCL win. Came back 2014 and won a League title.

Same cannot be said of Essien.
