Match Thread EPL Chelsea (A) - Sat Oct 4th 17:30

[FreshRed]

Marma has started well. Very self-assured.

 

[FreshRed]

Looks like one of those Salah days - the not good kind.

 

[Fabio]

Too slow atm. It has to go faster in midfield with more movement. We're trying but we're just too sloppy.

I don't understand the whole team being sloppy. One or two players, absolutely. The whole team looks well off it

 

[Modo]

And what the fuck is all this back passing about

 

[Fabio]

That's a fucking worldie

 

[Squiggles]

Bollocks and arse.

 

[Modo]

And there it is.

 

[darkstarexodus]

That's a hit.

 

[FreshRed]

Wow. Great shot, but Macca was really poor.

 

[Fabio]

Macca so fucking lax

 

[Modo]

We're asking Caicedo to shoot there

 

[The Nomad]

He got fingers to it. But great hit.

 

[Fabio]

We're getting turned over today

 

[darkstarexodus]

Macca got done in midfield, Virgil went with the runner. And Caicedo has time and space to blast it.

Not much chance for Marma.

 

[Tinto]

Caiciedo all the time in the world

 

[Barnie78]

What did VVD do?

 

[mom]

Backed off and let him shoot

 

[Fabio]

With Garnacho on their fucking wing

 

[rubans]

I might as well play instead of Macca, pointless player

 

[mark1975]

When is Slot going to sort out the midfield? Too fucking easy, again. He's watching the same fucking shit every week.

 

[The Nomad]

What did VVD do?

Went with the runner. Sometimes you got to pick your battles and you'd rather a DM shoot than a striker.

 

[Modo]

Long balls to the wing as usual.

 

[Tinto]

Macca so fucking lax

He’s not fit, shouldn’t be starting

 

[refugee]

Just before that goal went in, I was in the process of complaining about our players taking goal kicks and then passing them to the fucking keeper 4 yards away. What the fuck is the logic of that

 

[RedBaron]

I might as well play instead of Macca, pointless player

Pointless WC winning player?
Seriously?

 

[The Nomad]

Just before that goal went in, I was in the process of complaining about our players taking goal kicks and then passing them to the fucking keeper 4 yards away. What the fuck is the logic of that

Every team does it. Its shit. The theory is that you create more space deeper that way. Works maybe 1 out of 10 times.

 

[localny]

Macca easily beaten in the middle of the park for that goal. Not his fault. Manager shouldn’t be playing a half fit player

 

[rubans]

He’s not fit, shouldn’t be starting

What’s the actual issue with his fitness? It’s october and he isn’t. Is he ever likely to be? Some background we aren’t aware of?

 

[The Nomad]

Should be scoring there Dom

 

[Modo]

Szobo had all the time in the world too
