Aguero is not off form. Pep has refused to play Aguero as a pure striker. He wants Kun to be pressing all over. Where did G.Jesus play today? 9? 10? 11? He's been everywhere. Aguero is a 9. That's his job.

Even in this crappy season with injuries suspension and so on, Aguero has 15 goals in all comps. 11 in the league. That pressing is the issue not Kuns ability. Aguero is probably in top 3 pure number 9s in the game today

Ibime:


This is individual style of play, not team system.

Unless you want to go and sign Idrissa Gueye, you can see that most midfielders tackle less than Matic.

If Wanyama come to Chelsea, he would still tackle less than Matic because everytime Wanyama tackles, they give him yellow card.

It is those small players like Kante and Idrissa that launch themselves into tackles. If a big guy like Wanyama or Matic slide tackle you, he can break your leg and referees wont favour it. They have the strength and body size to shade you off the ball without needing to tackle.

That's why I don't like discussing yeye stats like tackling.

Kagawa10:


Wanyama is far more dominant in the midfield than Matic though. I once thought his one-man performance against Barca was just one off but now, I've seen the light.

Anyway, I don't see why the 3 players (Fab, Matic, Kante) can't play at the same time. It would give you more control and creativity in the midfield.

nateevs:


Not necessarily. It could also limit our ability to spread play in attack as this means we switch to a 3-5-2 from a 3-4-3. We won't won't use the wings as effectively as we do now and our Wing backs will need to do more work than they do now, which could also lead to defensive frailty.

You must be a shekipite. I don't know birds piss. Tell me something.

Just left the London Oratory school where I went to see someone.

Oboi the back if Stamford Bridge dirty small...specifically the area behind the west stand. All sorts of Bush and rubbish just full there.

Roman no fit get cleaner ni?

Kagawa10:


He was playing for Celtic at that time iirc.. He was really impressive against Barca in spite of his poor team mates.

Wingback:
Short Paul Scholes was Dominating Lampard...SMH...Is this the standard for Legends at Chelshit...Ordinary Lampard Legend...LMFAO...

Rells:
Conte is doing very well no doubt. But He needs to understand that the combo of matic and Kante will always render us more defensive than attacking against top teams. This technically makes our forwards like hazard and Costa do less in the game but join in the defence. We need Fabregas against big teams so that we can stamp our confidence in the game by being possessive of the ball and not win by 'luck'or 'shear tactics'.

By the way, . .chelsea should help arsenal find their way home (fourth) today.
Blue Forever!

CONTEDDICTED:
I know Ake won't start and Fabregas may not start but Willian MUST not start



Until his stepovers beat a man he should never start for us

Nihilist:


I think Fabregas should definitely play today. If we sit back and allow Arsenal to play, they will pick us off easily.
