By rvy Go To PostBecause that brilliant start was entirely dependent on having those midfielders on top form. What happens when they're not in top form? Hopefully your manager knows what he's doing in practice and teaches his players how to approach every moment of the game. Attacking, defending, offensive and defensive transition. You think Chelsea players are taught how to approach every single one of these? Don't you think that if they were that impressive brilliant start would have sustained itself throughout the season? You had matches where I clearly remember Chelsea players being completely lost on the field with offensive transitions or when they had possession in the opponents half.
Fabregas loses his form and the team is no longer impressive. How is the entire team dependent on one guy being in form? If your manager is considered a top manager, losing 2 or 3 players from the starting eleven shouldn't impact your team in a way that they play totally different. That just means that they aren't being taught properly.
I think this is pretty reductive to be honest. It wasn't just Fabregas losing his form (and Hazard continued to do so, as if it wasn't already apparent who is key there); Costa was injured for large swathes of the season. No club loses one of their very best players and isn't weakened as a result.
Losing 2/3 players from a first XI absolutely has an effect.
By Woodenlung Go To PostHe's a natural left wing, but should be able to play RW as well. Doubt he's much of a striker, at least in a one striker system.Alright, Emil. Formation time. Show me your Chelsea.
Also fucking include Kenedy already. He looked way better than Cuadrado just in that match against Barca alone.
By Woodenlung Go To PostYou gotta give it to Wilbur somehow. PM me on LCVG and I can tell Wlbur the number
Done!

So many good players at Chelsea and yet moans about players not having rested. Of course they are not rested if you play the same squad week in week out with the same tactics. Really getting tired of this shit, also he needs to work on his English, nothing about that final score was fake and the media will use this all week long,

By n8 Go To PostI think this is pretty reductive to be honest. It wasn't just Fabregas losing his form (and Hazard continued to do so, as if it wasn't already apparent who is key there); Costa was injured for large swathes of the season. No club loses one of their very best players and isn't weakened as a result.But I didn't say that there would be no effect. It has an effect on quality of play, yes. If you lose a highly creative and intelligent midfielder, then your team won't be as effective creating and building up play. But not being as good in terms of quality does not mean not being able to build up play or transition from defending to countering.
Losing 2/3 players from a first XI absolutely has an effect.
So it is Everton now... Well, at least Andriy will not play against Dynamo in the Champions League.. :p

By Blazinho Go To Postits not ready for MGSV yet
Don't blame it tbh
By Cleff Go To PostSo, is Baba Rahman actually any good?Yes. But I don't know if he's ready to be a starting player at Chelsea.
Also fucking hell, Fiorentino really needs to sign someone just for the sake of signing someone

By Mangoverboard Go To PostWhat's the story with Sakho at Liverpool? Leaving, staying? He isn't still injured is he?
Behind Lovren in the pecking order.
A fate worse than death.
By rvy Go To PostGo look it up sunshine. Go watch Porto and Chelsea play football before he went to Italy and had this ridiculous epiphany that he should only focus on defense.
You're wrong, rvy. You're just wrong.
