Chelsea Thread - 2021/22

Lukaku is right in one aspect. The system is shit. Too negative for a side supposed to be competing for a title. Cup side and no more

Or is it just that Lukaku is more suited playing against sub-standard teams in the Italian pub league than the elite level in the PL?

No he’s not, he’s paid a fortune to work hard , train and give 100% for Chelsea. If a player did that at City I’d want him strung up

He’s not right to speak out but the quote about tactics is spot on

Tuchel has precipitated a situation where he loses credibility if he doesn’t beat this lot. Lukaku would be proved right and would seem to also reflect the views of some of his team mates.......or they step up today and batter the red scouse.

He doesn't lose one bit of credibility if we lose this game. He would have done if he hadn't done anything about Lukaku's behaviour. Dropping him was the only right decision in my opinion.

Disagree.

Think he could have kept him on the bench and sanctioned him when it doesn’t hurt your club so much....there will be lots of questions asked if you lose today.

I mean it's not like his scoring record against top 6 teams is fantastic. I don't think Tuchel would be under additional pressure by dropping Lukaku today.

I'm sat at home watching the game mate. Do you not post here during City games?

More to do with the intensity. I thought you be running around your living room. Fucking hell I'm jumping up and down at this. Just smash the bastards

We’ll see, but I suspect you’re wrong and he’ll be called out for it.

Doubt it. He’s stood his ground. They weren’t behind due to lukaku, due to stupid mistakes defensively whilst still scoring two themselves.
