a brain is all that is holding him backHe's SO close to being genius, but there's that final 10% missing that generally leads to losing the ball, getting a yellow card or both.

Totally agree. On both paragraphs.Agree, hadn't looked on here at all and feel like people are watching a different game than I am. Also Chelsea's XI is clearly much closer to their starting XI than ours.
One thing is clear though, anybody who doesn't think a second choice striker is an absolute necessity observe that first 45.
You answered that yourself , this team has never played together before!How is it that we have one of the best managers in the world and a team that looks like it's never played together before?
Chelsea were two leagues above us in that half.
You're not supposed to contradict yourself in the same post. "We'll win this" comes before the match, and then the "fuck it" post comes 10-20 minutes later. Be a real optimist!We'll win this.
We won't, but it's nice to pretend to be optimistic every now and then.
No one is forcing you to ! ?
Were dog shit and our manager carries a large portion of that
Chelsea can’t defend, so we setup tactically to allow their defence a free ride?!
And to think there will be people saying it’d be completely different if we had some limited lump up top......
Oh, sorry - I thought they might have met on the training ground.You answered that yourself , this team has never played together before!![]()
Well, this particular team hasn't played together very much, have they? Reggie and Tanganga just in, etc.How is it that we have one of the best managers in the world and a team that looks like it's never played together before?
You don't want to watch the Lamela-Bergwijn show? I'm sure they'll produce some MAGIC in the second half.
No hard tackling. No real running off the ball. No real drive to win. Its clear the team orders are to firstly not get hurt. 9 games in 22 days will leave any team choosing their games. I can't blame Jose.
Because we've got Gedson and donkey Sissoko in midfield plus no strikers.
