Instead, Juve's play has been predictable and painfully slow. - goal.com (check)

What we Chelsea fans endured this last season Let's check the similarities shall we

This is a team still searching for its identity, so it's hardly surprising that so many players have appeared unsure of themselves, and indeed their roles. (check)

Giovanni Cobolli Gigli described Miralem Pjanic to Radio Sportiva as "soft as mozzarella" , which will have done little for the Bosnian’s self-belief.
Still, the playmaker perhaps personifies Juve's struggles under Sarri this season.
He initially thrived in the 'Jorginho role' but he has now utterly lost his way, and his confidence,
just like Juve in general, with the team relying on Cristiano Ronaldo's clinical finishing to win games. (double check)

Something Hazard did for us.

This is undeniably a team that specialises in individual moments of excellence rather than shows of collective strength. (check)

The keys to Juve's remarkable run of eight consecutive Scudetti were unity and a spirit of self-sacrifice. There was a huge amount of talent in the teams of Antonio Conte and Allegri but it was their togetherness that drove them. Sarri's side do not yet possess that sense of solidity. (who is going to win best ex Chelsea boss in Italy this season cheesy Conte or Sarri, my vote's for Conte)

This is the one main reason I support Lampard's appointment, unlike last season some players clearly lost interest in some games while on the pitch of play.

Juve have scored fewer goals and conceded more than their two Scudetto rivals, Lazio and Inter. (check, same thing happened to use)

Fvck that Aba made Brazilian! He should fvck off sharply and take Pedro with him.

For those that want Willian gone (as do I):

Willian said: "I have played for Chelsea for more than six years now, and I can honestly say that I am very happy here.

"If you ask my wife if she wants to leave London, she'll say no. My daughters feel the same way. Of course, Brazil is Brazil, right? It's our home, our culture. We always feel good when we go there on holiday and see family and friends, but London is my second home.

"In fact, I recently passed a British citizenship test. Man, it was hard. It's British history in a nutshell. Some questions are so difficult that not even some of my British friends knew the answers!

"As it turned out, I failed on my first two attempts, but got it on the third. I am now a British citizen!

"So, London is where I want to stay. This is where I have my family, my church. I want my daughters to grow up here."

Blueangel444, I believe that sarri falls into the category of coaches that need time for their systems to be implemented and for their type of players to be recruited.
If we use only the first years of coaches like kloop, pochetino, arsene wenger or Ferguson to judge, they will be labelled as flops.
There are very few coaches like guardiola or mourinho or ancelloti that come in fixes problems almost always instantaneously.

we have seen from those earlier mentioned coaches, that with time and the right backing, they go on to build powerful teams.

Anybody with football brain would see the loopholes in Sarriball and why it will be hard to give you expected results, even in the long run.

Napoli president wasn't wrong about Sarri:

There remains the pleasure of having played well but also the bitterness of not having won anything.

“We gave Sarri everything and in three years we didn’t win anything.
"

Juventus fans are already whistling on the one-dimensional smoker.

So only 3 clubs out of 32 have a better win percentage than Liverpool.

In other words, 91% of UCL contestants have not been better than Liverpool during the group stage this season

Sounds like a farmer's league to me o

Arsenal have made Bayer Leverkusen and Germany defender Jonathan Tah a top target and are ready to activate the £34m release clause in the 24-year-old's contract.

We can go for that Tah do oh.

In other news
Manchester City have hired the lawyer who twice blocked Brexit in an attempt to overturn their two-year ban and keep them in Europe.

Spurs manager Mourinho has revealed he knows how the Blues will line up against his team at Stamford Bridge.

What is the line up self

13 Caballero
28 Azpilicueta
4 Christensen
2 Rüdiger
24 James
5 Jorginho
17 Kovacic
3 Alonso
8 Barkley
19 Mount
18 Giroud

So Kepa still benched shocked

Lampard insists the Chelsea board backs his decision to drop 25-year-old Spaniard Kepa Arrizabalaga - the world's most expensive goalkeeper - to the bench.
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by richesbhc(m): 12:35pm On Feb 22, 2020

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by 72Morale: 12:37pm On Feb 22, 2020
The state of Chelsea's defense at the moment can make any keeper look ordinary and useless.

You guys can bring $60m for Romero instead of suffering with Caballero and Kepa.

3-5-2 with no wingers.

. Caballero

. Azpi. Chris. Rudi

James Jorgi. Kova. Alonso

. Barkley

. Giroud. Mount

Spurs are playing 4 centrebacks, 2 full backs and 2 DMs in the same team.

Sanchez, Tanganga, Aldeweireld, Verthongen, Davies and Aurier all in the same team ontop of Winks, Ndombele and LoCelso.

Which kain formation is Jose playing. This match will be a traffic jam.


BTW, why is Lampard persistent with Christensen even with a broken nose?
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Thecassanova: 12:45pm On Feb 22, 2020

For Kepa to be relegated for calamity Caballero shows how poor he is.

I've always considered Caballero an extremely poor goalkeeper.
