Well the strategy is for Hazard to go into the space vacated by Navas. Risky strategy from both sides.

City are playing 3 in midfield vs our 2.

That's why Silva us seeing space to run in to. Has nothing to do with Matic's absence.
It's not even about the 3 or Silva, it's about how our 2 are going about the business of screening the defence.

It's horrendous!
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by bigkesh(m): 8:53pm On Apr 05, 2017
Hazard is on fire!! !

He is going to be deadly as a 9 in this game


Where is my one and only Willian or even my Majestic Matic, Costa needs to Bleep out.
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by FBS: 8:53pm On Apr 05, 2017
First 45 mins.
1. F.ck whatever anyone else says but There is no league like the EPL.
2. The first goal was made by Hazard and scored by Hazard. Brilliant.
3. Cortouis ain't getting his bonus. No way.
4. We need a serious penalty taker.
4. Aguero is one dangerous striker. Pep just dey pour sand sand for the guy garri. It's ok for us though.
5. Where is our midfield?

What do you want them to do? They are 2 men marking 3. Our own 3rd man is at centre back. If they like, they should run through midfield all they want. They still have one man against our 3 centre backs. Apart from that goal Courtois dashed them, what chance have they created? Outside the free goal, they've only had 2 shots from inside the box.
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by lordfalcao(m): 8:57pm On Apr 05, 2017
Morata don dy try.. Having less appearance than benzema yet outscoring benzema

Staying compact is the idea. No matter how useless Matic is, you can't find him drifted away from the action zone.

Cesc doesn't understand 'cos he's no Dm.

Matic is on, Conte dey observe sha cheesy
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m): 9:02pm On Apr 05, 2017
Switching to 3-5-2. Not feeling Pedro for that RWB though.
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m): 9:04pm On Apr 05, 2017
Conte should give Willian a shot at that RWB. He has the work ethic.

Matic is on to put numbers in midfield, nothing more. If there was a problem with individual performance in midfield, it's a midfielder that would have come off.

Cesc's creativity is needed in a game of this sort, Matic is on to complement.

Call it numbers if you want bro. It actually translates directly into stabilizing our game play while preventing the opposition from having easy pass through the midfield.

If you put my grandpa in there, you'll get exactly the same effect. 3 midfielders find it harder to get past 3 than they did against 2. Quelle surprise
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by FBS: 9:22pm On Apr 05, 2017
Which side is playing at home? shocked
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by donjazet(m): 9:25pm On Apr 05, 2017
Costa actually has a mental problem, that I am certain of.

Well I am definitely not arguing against your point. And, I do agree when you say it is about numbers. However,the set of players who make up the numbers actually count so pls dont play that down.


PS: I am not even seeing the match sef and Na una I dey use follow the game.
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by FBS: 9:29pm On Apr 05, 2017

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m): 9:32pm On Apr 05, 2017
