Just when I though this team couldn't hit a new low, they yet again prove me wrong. Poch needs to go. It's over. I get that he's hamstrung by co-directors who have assembled the biggest waste of money the sport has ever seen, but he hasn't come close to building anything that looks like a team all season. He's not made a single improvement to our squad, not one. If anything, they're worse than ever. The defence is the biggest mockery of what this club used to stand for when it came to strong defensive units. I've never seen such a disorgansed defensive line. Why were Chalobah and Silva suddenly dropped when they did so well against City? Enzo/Caicedo/Gallagher have been our midfield 3 all season, playing the most minutes and they still look like they were brought in yesterday. No cohesion. No structure. No understanding. Just running. We weren't this poor last season at the Emirates under Lampard, who I don't even consider a manager. They are all carried by an incredibly talented young player that will leave this sh*t behind once he realises he has no chance of success here.
4 scorers, 2 assists and a clean sheet plus had the top 3 ratings in my FPL team. Thank you Chelsea for being as bad as a Sunday League team ( being disrespectful to all pub teams here ).
Ourselves or City are not closing the gap in GD, so advantage Arsenal on that front, could be huge come the end of season (been saying this for weeks). In fact I have a feeling its Arsenals title this season and they will win it via...GD Not only are they looking good when they decide to play, they're getting those little slices of luck, opponents star players/half the squad injured, no injuries themselves, players missing sitters against them, balls bounching their way, fluke goals like Whites 2nd flying in and so on. Bloody hell, how has his stock dropped so much not being able to get in that Chelsea side, the three up front are complete emptyheads. Can't recall ever seeing a front three as erratic as them, one minute they look half decent players, the next conference quality Surely Sterling walks into that side ahead any of those three? And wtf has happened to Enzo? Looked an excellent signing when they bought him and for the first few months, but by god has his from dropped, he looks a completely different player
I'm sure this will look petty or whatever because I'm a Spurs fan but I'd say this about any team in Arsenal's position, if they don't win the league this year it is a huge miss. Liverpool have not been the same as previous Liverpool sides all year. The injuries, the random results, etc. Liverpool have had a down year by recent standards. City have been down. Haaland and KdB have been average by their standards, the injuries and playing deep in so many competitions. Chelsea and United are no where close. Spurs are lucky to be going for top 4. Arsenal have had barely any injuries, the schedule has not been difficult and they have had more luck go their way than the other challengers. Missing the title this season will be a huge, huge miss.
Yeah they went out of the League Cup back in November, out of the FA Cup at the first hurdle so their schedule has been lighter than the other two, they've barely had an injury all season, which is mad these days. Every week I see them its the same 14/15 or so players starting/subs...that certainly helps a lot. City haven't been the same City this season and we've hit a brick wall last month or so, Arsenal will never have a better opportunity, if they dont win this season, I doubt they'll win it in the near future.
Not sure how Liverpool have had a "down year" given they are currently still in a title race with 5 games left, having won a trophy already. Have you forgotten they finished 5th, just last season?
Lol of course a Liverpool fan would try arguing that point. It's a compliment. By recent standards, this is a down year for Liverpool. You have looked average for a month now and a falling from the race.
Bit of hyperbole in your posts so I’ll start with this one. We could win the rest of our fixtures, end up with 49 points from a possible 54 and still not win the league. That’s not a huge miss, that’s being beaten by a still incredible team. ‘Falling from the race’. If they win tomorrow they go level on points with us That’s not falling from the race. They’re still right in it, doing all they can do at this point which is putting pressure on City.
Yes, of course a Liverpool fan is calling you up on your inane take that Liverpool are having a down year. By recent standards it clearly isn't a down year, Liverpool finished 5th on 67 points last season and didn't win anything. This season they'll finish at minimum 3rd, with a trophy. What a disappointment. Won as many trophies during this torrid season as Spurs have won in over 30 years. Oh and please remind me how many title races Spurs have even mustered in the past half century? Get a clue.
Been watching Enzo over the season, while he is decent in some games with the ball others he has been pretty dire. He is not a holding midfielder, lacks pace and can be beaten or bypassed quite easily. Lacks height so not going to win any headers. Chelsea supporters are saying when/if Lavia is back Enzo can then play further forward but I still think his lack of pace will show. Good on the ball with space but you don’t get much time on the ball in the Premier League and I think his found that out. Definitely not worth what we paid, Rice last night made him look very very average.
You argue everything don't you? I'm literally giving your club credit and you try finding a way to argue. I've seen Liverpool fans even say this is not a normal Klopp team. Ffs you're a weirdo.
Needs hernia repair surgery and is playing through pain killers according to Argentine sources. I don't think Poch's football suits him at all. He looked better under Potter.
Such a strange match yesterday. The first and second goals just happened And then this Chelsea side, mentally, seem to go once they are 2 goals down. They looked so broken and defeated. Odegaard's pass for the third was a thing of beauty. He has that in his locker but we don't get to see it too often because of how our matches go. And then an emphatic fnish for Havertz who had a bipolar game. Quite maddening in the first half, sublime in the second. It was fun and funny after that.
Sounds like he'll miss the Tottenham game next week because of this in the hope he'll be fit for the Copa America. A little unfortunate he's missing. I don't watch anywhere near as much football as I used to so I'm really intrigued by the hype around Enzo. I was hoping to get a better look at him next week and typically he's now missing
