His confidence level is high for his age. Knows when to tackle too.

I’m just torn in between starting Mount or Kovacic.
Kovacic is sealing his spot in that midfield. Two games and our midfield virtually won those battles in the middle, creating numerous chances upfront, unlike under Sarri that I was almost bored to death with thousands of passes but few chances created.

Now opponents can't just man-mark Jorginho and the system collapses. Lampard's system is not built around only one player.

Tomori has a bright future.

Kante get close to do defence unlike in sarri system were he needs 2 b in d opposition box often

Kante and kovacic are more of double pivot assigned mainly as "tacklers" joginho controls d midfields with short passes nd keeping the possesions


The good tin is 3 of dem are not shaky with the ball.
nawa. So you did not see kante making runs with the ball, dribling to the opposition half ?

Thank God for Lampard. Never will Chelsea take a coach who had smoked his brain away to train our players again. Kovacic, even Kante, Emerson all looking like mumus under that smoker.

He nearly ruined the team.

He told the truth. Casameiro acknowledged Ngolo few days before the World Cup as the best holding midfielder in the world. Not to take anything away from Casameiro, he's good but not on the French world cup winner's level.

This is not entirely true, he gave Emerson his breakthrough even when he was short on confidence. He played Kovacic well enough too, just that the substitution thing with Barkley didn't play out well with the fans.
I can only fault him for playing Kante off position but our black brother showed us he's an utility player.
I still do not have confidence in Lampard. I was expecting massive shore from the bench yesterday, only to see that Championship material (Tammy Abraham) instead of Batshuayi to replace Giroud.
Well, let's hope we avoid another defeat on Sunday.

I hope you are not joining Dayo to stupidly blame him for Giroud's goal. I laughed when I saw him posting that Giroud was his man, when he wasn't the closest Liverpool defender to him.
7 on 2. Gomes i the one who should ve done better to track Giroud.

Matip either follows up on Giroud or he blocks the passing lane.

VVD on the other hand is the one who should ve stepped up to Pulisic to double mark. But uncle was backing off so they wont dribble him.
This is not the first time i have noticed him backing off from an attacker too.

Lies from the put of hell.kante is not an holding midfielder but a box 2 box player. Casemiro is the best DM in the world and if kante was in Madrid he will partner casemiro not bench him.

it should be between Barkley or mount. Kovacic will be playing far from final third in this lampard tactics
Man ehh, with Kovacic’s performance yesterday, it would be foolhardy for Lamps to bench him. Dude was solid and ran riot with Kante in that midfield.

By the way, Kante never gets tired. Mehn.

I don't have problem with his using them but his training programme gave no chance for some players to improve.

When he said he only worked with 13 players for the season, how would the remaining players improve ? Unless you want to tell me Emerson was in that 13.

It was the pressure from fans that made him to start using Emerson later and how would such player play well?

Now almost all our players are looking good and not only some anointed ones.

If you don't have confidence in Lampard, maybe you can be following Juve.

If Gomes and Matip did their jobs, no goal. Don't expect every cb to be like Boathand jumping into a skillfull Marcelo as the last man, exposing his keeper. You time it, you only do that when neccessary. Vvd did such against Pedro and Giroud yesterday, when he had to.

I really don't get you, you seem to let your dislike for Sarri cloud your judgement.

Yes, Sarri had flaws, primarily being tactically inflexible, however there were good positives from his tenure, his basic ideology was attacking football and to an extent he drilled the basics and fundamentals of his system into the team.

Saying that what we saw yesterday was all down to Lampard's methods is untrue and downright ridiculous.

Lampard has tweaked minor aspects of sarrisimo but the foundation is undeniable.
lack of acknowledgement of Sarri's positive influence on the team is unjust and shortsighted.

Which mumu framework? Was it Sarri that made Lampard to play good football with average Derby County players too?

Thank God I now have a team that could create numerous scoring chances and not playing thousands of short passes with no multiple scoring chances.

Lampard said he would find the best way to use Kante and an half-fit Kante already looking like gold. Emerson is looking like diamond. Our players are now shooting well. You ascribed all these to Sarri?

Framework ko, Woodwork ni.
Again I will tell you what I told Ema. Without sarri it would have taken a long time for lampard to implement his own idea.
Everyone knew kante defensive qualities, but after Sarri he has also shown how he can dominate on the ball. Especially Yesterday his ability to bring the ball forward and not only do tackles was so important for Us. Sarri made the team comfortable playing from the back under pressure which you saw yesterday was very instrumental against Liverpool high press.

Even in the academy, they teach you basics of football. You are expected to know how to give and receive short and long passes as a professional player. Those are the foundations that must be laid by academy coaches.

Passing from the back, is not the key thing in Lampard's system. If he doesn't change the players orientation on making a lot of short passes leading to nowhere, then he's doomed.

Transition to attack is not only majorly by one Jorginho, so where's the framework? Lampard scattered Sarri's system and brought his into the team and even when we have United sitting behind the ball, we could create numerous chances, unlike under Sarri.

Lampard didnt use any Sarri framework at Derby, he's not using any Sarri framework at Chelsea biko. All professional players learnt those basic skills in academies.

Fraudiola should be the one accusing everybody of using his high pressing framework.

Thats a lie. How long did it take Sarri to train them on playing from the back? Conte changed his formation, tactics during the season and he won the league with it.

Sarri gave no framework biko. Lampard has no Sarri to thank.

Kante is a workaholic but primarily,his strength lies in intercepting nd reducing oppositional threats.

I was only pointing out the major difference in his role in lamps as well as sarri.

Can we also say Mourinho laid foundation for Conte to win the league next season with his defensive philosophy which is similar to Conte's?

When city signed Guardiola, how long did it take b4 they started trying to play the way Guardiola wanted, did it take 4 to 5 years?
