Match Thread Chelsea (A) Sunday May 4th 16:30

[Farkmaster]

Look at us with a left flank, how fancy.

 

[Fabio]

I'm at the stage where I'd just put Elliott as backup RW to mo. Neither have the pace, Elliott doesn't have the finishing, but he could pass and interplay

Thats the only way I see Elliott staying now tbh

 

[peterhague]

Trent has apparently nutmegged two players but I've missed it due to the replays

Eh have you got nutmeg alerts set up on your phone or something?

Why would he do that though?

 

[Modo]

A lot of blame is being directed at Harvey, but Cujo hasn't been great either

haha...the commentators

 

[Fabio]

Jones has been fucking AWOL, but we know slot likes him.

I don't really blame him. He can't do this role well, and there isn't a role on this team he can do well, other than as a sub, situationally. It doesn't mean he's not a good player.

Same with Endo.

 

[Fabio]

Why would he do that though?

No clue.

 

[Farkmaster]

Well in Quansah.

 

[darkstarexodus]

Good recovery from Quansah there. Thought that had pen written all over it for a second but he showed good pace and judgment.

Salah is way faster than Elliott. He's lost a little bit but he's still fast.

 

[Farkmaster]

The remit now how to be keep this at 1-0 and then get subs on.

 

[MomoWASright]

I’d struggle to give Trent anything above a 4 so far. The quicker he fucks off the better.

 

[mom]

Yep let’s do the ol “wait til they tire then bring the big guns on”.

 

[Farkmaster]

Trent's aura gets a corner.

 

[Farkmaster]

The state of Chelsea's counter attack there.

 

[MomoWASright]

Trent's aura gets a corner.

May as well have been a goal kick

 

[Farkmaster]

That ball to Salah is the one I hope to see less next season.

Pinged in pointlessly to a player who has an inconsistent first touch, with no one around him.

 

[KopRed]

No clue what's the point of Elliot so far.

 

[Farkmaster]

No clue what's the point of Elliot so far.

I think Jota has been the most pointless, and he's playing in his preferred position.

 

[Farkmaster]

Jones has to find that ball.

 

[mom]

Chelsea are average.

 

[MomoWASright]

I think Jota has been the most pointless, and he's playing in his preferred position.

Yea, Jota, Jones and Trent have been more useless than Elliott.

 

[Modo]

I think Jota has been the most pointless, and he's playing in his preferred position.

I don't really understand what you expect him to do?
The only way he's scoring today is if he goes on a solo run and dribbles past 3 players.

 

[mom]

put Chiesa on for Jota

 

[KopRed]

I think Jota has been the most pointless, and he's playing in his preferred position.

None of our players have this position nailed down to be fair. Diaz looks the most competent and he's not even a 9.

 

[Farkmaster]

Flag or no flag that's fucking shambolic.

 

[Fabio]

I mean, we've looked poor, but we've not been stupidly terrible

 

[KopRed]

Quansah's been pretty good though.
