Chelsea Thread - 2021/22

I bloody hope not. A good finisher now and again but he traps the ball further than I can kick it. Like a labrador with a balloon at times.

Touch like a trampoline you mean.

Not a very Chelsea move from Tuchel in my opinion.

I know they're ruthless with managers but a serial winning machine doesn't make itself weaker on purpose.

Or like Beckenbauer once said about Klinsmann:

"He stops the ball further than he can kick it."

I mean Pep dropped Foden and Grealish when they broke the rules. It's a pretty normal response I think.

Not from the squad and especially not when claiming you have no fit players…

Havertz was fit enough to sit on the bench in the last game. He should hopefully start. Anyway, it couldn't go without a response. Unlucky that the very next game is Liverpool.

Usually I’d be very happy he was missing for Chelsea for obvious reasons but of all the 38 games, it had to be this one!

Hope he’s still in the bad books in a few weeks.

So it's a 2 horse race then. Dippers need a favour so Chelsea drop their biggest threat for them.

Lukaku is not too good in this sort of fixture anyway.

 

[GaudinoMotors]

Good. Chelsea will have 10 outfield players putting a shift in.

 

[ninjamonkey]

Chelsea have got no chance here, lukaku could cause them serious problems in the channels if they play up to him early enough when there's space behind the fullbacks, another big loss for them. they're going to get smacked which will give Liverpool a a big morale boost. Prove me wrong Chelsea. Please.

Our next 3 games after today are cup games, so even if you get your wish, his punishment probably wouldn't carry over to the next league game :)

As it is, I think they'll draw a line under it after this weekend, and hopefully that'll be the end of it.
