    8 | Mateo Kovacic - 2023/24

    He rarely did that for us. I would not expect that from. He is good for a couple of assists every now and again but nothing regular that can be relied upon. He’s skillset is being excellent between the two boxes and being incredibly press resistant.

    He’s actually been incredible. Much better than I expected. A huge upgrade on Havertz.

    That was funny to be fair :)

    Pumped Up

    I'm not sure exactly what Poch was upset about after the game but he used the post match conference, when the immediate post match emotions had subsided, to apologise to the ref and Pep for his behaviour. In stark contract to Arteta who not only doubled down in the post match conference, got his...

    I thought we were OK at the back. We conceded a meh penalty and a deflection. I don't feel City created too much outside of the other two goals (Haaland's 2nd and Akanji's free header) except that one Haaland chance that Sanchez saved. It's City, you're bound to create good chances, no-one can...

    I also thought we played around your press effectively. It was great because players like Gallagher who were notoriously awkward on the ball have become really press resistant and we often had zero trouble playing through your press. If only we had more cutting edge up front, which sounds crazy...

    Different teams have different struggles. That is our struggle.

    And therein lies the problem. We just cannot for the life of us figure out how to break down a low block. Top teams like City and Arsenal will always come on to us and we’ll have enough space to work with. I feel like the next step in the evolution of this team is to learn how play against teams...

    To be fair we played both Arsenal and Liverpool off the park the season but we only had a point to show for it in each game.

    Raheem Sterling | Arsenal Player (on loan)

    This was by far the best Sterling I’ve seen at Chelsea and he’s been pretty good this season. Superb today.

    Bloody hell. What a game. I actually felt we should have won that. But a point against the best team in the world is a good point.

    Chelsea (A) - Sun 12th Nov, 16:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

    First of all, I’m not bragging. Im correcting someone. Please consider the context of my posts. Secondly, they were all over us the first 20 mins. We got on top in the game the next 10 and by the time they self imploded we were well on top, so I disagree that they were battering us 11 v 11...

    Ha :) I’m just being honest. I think we will lose but I don’t think it’s a game that we have no chance of winning. I think we have the enough weapons to hurt you. It’s a long shot though. City are probably the best team in the world at suffocating teams into submission.

    I mean we beat them 4-1 and created 3-4 other sitters, so I don’t think true that we could ‘barely damage’ Spurs. Us being profligate is our biggest problem. Anyway, it doesn’t change the fact that I feel optimistic going into this game. I think we’re going to lose but I think we can win.

    Chelsea (A) - Sun 12th Nov, 16:30 | PL | Pre-Match Thread

    When we came out of the last international break, and everyone was talking about this tough stretch of games we had coming up, City at home was the one game I had down as guaranteed loss. I feel optimistic about this game. I think we can do some damage in the counter. If we can somehow stifle...

    I actually think the game was going to even out. They were on top the first 15 mins, we were on top the following 10 mins and then they completely imploded. Before the game I had this down as a 1-1 and the way the game was going before the first red card, I still think it would have ended in a draw.

    We've been linked with Toney and Osimhen but for me I have PTSD when it comes to big money strikers. I have been burnt by Shevchenko, Torres, Morata and Lukaku. Both Toney and Osimhen look like certified flops if they join Chelsea :) I do like Jackson though. He's raw and very inexperienced...

    I actually think Gallagher offers a really nice balance next to Enzo and Caicedo.

    He was quiet but I’d say a disaster is probably overstating it a bit.
