massive game in mestalla. we need to avoid defeat and last game vs lille at home should be 3 point.

Proud of the boys, although a little disappointed we didn't get the fifth to win it. What a crazy game, definitely worth losing sleep over!

hope lampard realized, Alonso no longer need to play for Chelsea. Starting Reece James from now

Obviously Ajax>us
9 men still can attacked and almost score
It also reflect our defense is shit, cant handle 9 men

both all out attacking, if you pass correctly you wont see much difference even with 9 players.

and yes, we should do better defensively.

Lampard should bring in Kante for Kova and Mitchy for Tammy.

CHO still not there yet.

James tho, my man. Solid.

Not the result I expected but I liked the guys never give up even down 4-1

Really need to work on defence
Basically we scored 6 goals

8 Goals, 2 were denied

so much hate on alonso....

i watched the highlights....which ajax's goal exactly is due to his error ?

Ajax front three keep attacked his side, 3 from 4 Ajax goals came from his side

His direct error was 3rd goal we conceded, he and tomori forced Tadic to sideline and Tadic had nowhere to go, however Alonso tackled Tadic and fouled and gave away a free kick lead to Kepa own goal

Lampard sub him out before 2nd half start

Missed an exciting game... gonna catch the highlight

In the 25 minutes they played with 9 men, Ajax had as many shots on target as Chelsea (3).

i must have watched a different highlights...only the 3rd goal from free kick is from his side...

the rest nope

IMO, lampard need to adapt to man marking during defensive set piece especially facing free kick and corner kick at dangerous area.

We need to tighten up our defence if not we will go back to villa boas time. Scoring and conceding for fun. We should have another experience center back to give competition to tomori, christensen, rudiger and zouma.

Chelsea open to offloading Olivier Giroud and Pedro in January transfer window as new generation forces ageing stars aside - Matt Law


Chelse are interested in a summer move for Ben Chilwell, that will almost certainly see Marcos Alonso leave the club. - The Telegraph

VAR

keep alonso for 2 season ? what the f .....he need to go.....he so so limited footballer .....he doesnt suite lampard system at all....he always give away fouls and free kicks.....cause any winger with pace can easily beat him...that why he constantly fouling players. He only good at left wingback......and a below average left back.

Chelsea should target this kind of players that suite the system after the transfer ban is lifted :-

Rightback(RB): Atal from football team Nice, reece james still young and learning....both of these will set our RB position for atleast 5-10 years.

Centerback(CB): Ake only 40mil buyout clause.....chelsea do not have a left foot center back and can play in a back 3 or left back. If chelsea were to sell either rudiger or christensen hopefully not the case. (Other good options : Ruben Dias – 22 – CB – Benfica , Dayot Upamecano & Ibrahima Konate – 20 – CBs – Leipzig )


Leftback(LB) : Chiwell is debatable....abit too expensive 70mil if its 50mil then good buy for a good player but does have to potential to be a excellent leftback (others cheap but good alternative option would be Arthur Masuaku from west ham (26 years old) , José Luis Gayà from Valencia (24 years old) and Alex Telles from Porto (26 years old).

Right winger(RW) : Sancho will be the dream but the price is going very expensive (100mil +) not to say chelsea dont have the money but will depend on them to spend it or not (Other alternative player is hakim ziyech (26 years old) ...absolute baller with one of the best left footer player in the world along with di maria,sane, mahrez and messi ....he has every thing chelsea needs which is left foot, set piece, play-making ability, not super fast but has excellent dribbling skills buyout clause only less then 40mil or 50mil...last summer his buyout was at 30mil crazy no one went for him. Other then ziyech , there is suso , Florian Thauvin , Leon Bailey)

Forward: Zaha is good but expensive (70mil) can play in all the front 3 attacking positions. Moussa Dembélé from lyon is another good options and not very expensive. Of course my dream would be kylian mbappe if chelsea want to make a statement of intent or luka jovic is another good option.

If chelsea does sign RB,LB,CB,RW,Forward.....5 signing needed.....top priority signing is LB , RW , Forward....if chelsea get this done by next season start then we can challenge on all front of all competition.
