I wouldn't say Kante is the culprit. I would say Lampard reacted too late. Newcastle defending so deep, and still we let Kante play whole 90 min. I mean yes, he does offer a lot of movement up top. But then Kova would be better imo. Newcastle seldom quick counter, so we don't really need Kante for the full 90. Shud put on more attacking player way earlier.

Barkley's introduction injected pace and movement up top. But a bit late imo.

We go again next week. KTBFFH

Bro look at how many through passes he got and he wasted it. One clear chance was from reece james's pass. If he square the ball to tammy, tammy wouldve buried it. But instead he shoot from a tight angle, knowing he isnt a good finisher pun.

Mount also did the same when Kante intercepted the ball near the box that dumbfuck dribble towards the goal and shoot across the goal when he shouldve pass to open CHO to shoot.

And as I said kovacic can only dribble so much in a packed opposition half.

But also what disappoints me is, although I know jorginho importance in orchestrating players where to go and all, he lacks finesse through ball to up top. Rarely see it these days except for his pass for tammy earlier this season

My point is everyone could be better.

Win percentage with Kanté this season: 36%

Win percentage without Kanté this season: 71%

The sample size is getting increasingly bigger and the signs aren't good.

It's not even about Kanté playing bad because he doesn't, it's about him not suiting our needs in most games.

Agreed on the last part

Yes. His playing style does not suit Sarri and Lampard's strategy. His talent of being a destroyer is buried with our recent managers strategy.

Can I suggest we sell him. Lol. In this case do u guys back the player for being misused, or u back the manager. Tough position wey.

Lester with 442 was playing counter attack, not facing low block teams every game.

Ko memang legend

Then how do u explain liverpool? Salah and Mane is more of a complete striker supported by false 9 Firmino....essentially 2 all out striker oso...

I think chelsea was good early on coz Mount play more like a pseudo 2nd striker than an AM like he does right now....

Move on to arsenal next at home !!

its time to play the jorginho + Kovacic partner ship again.....last time we played them 2 together chelsea went on a 7 games winning streak

Lampard have to embrace the system....cesar offer next to noting in attack on the left hand side time for emerson not matter how dog shit he playing we have to compile to the system

Need a new goal keeping coach for kepa....i dont mind shay given.

Rudiger is not going to solve our defensive problems...he not really that good also....just slight better then our other CB but not by much.

Kepa

James-Rudiger-Zouma-Emerson

Jorginho-Kovacic

William-Barkley-CHO

Tammy

Should seriously looks to dani olmo.

Chelsea's next fixtures:

Arsenal (H)
Hull (FA Cup - A)
Leicester (A)
Man United (H)
Tottenham (H)
Bayern Munich (H)

Let us pray...seriously

manu...as usual self

lol

They play very good without rashford
I doubt we can do the same vs liv

If Marina consider to bring in Isco as AM, she better get a scout report on Dani Olmo. Younger and cheaper too. One more thing to add, why keep on stuck with pedro? he is old better sell him fast. Get younger winger such hakim ziyech as other mentioned.

and if signing a striker permanently is very hard during Jan, might as well as loan one. as long as he can score goals.

Dani Olmo very good young player...I don't know what our scouts are doing...

Cavani wanna leave Psg
Pls sign him

he will be falcao no.2

You never know
