Chelsea Thread - 2022/23 | Pochettino confirmed as new manager

[BerkshireBlue]

Oh boy. Another shit result. It’s very annoying because personally I believe in Potter, I think he’s an excellent coach and I really hope the owners wait it out to and give him more time. But, it’s becoming impossible to defend these results. Sitting in the bottom half after 29 games is genuinely unbelievable.

they've just bought a load of shite for £600m on 10 year contracts. Completely the owners fault, what is the manager supposed to do with that mess.

Remember Mudryk went on one good run at anfield on his debut and everyone was saying what a signing

I even considered sticking him in my FF team on that run. Good job I didn't

Is Potter trying to outpep Pep with his formations?

Looks totally unbalanced. 2 left backs, 1 right back and 1 central defender in the back 4.

I know we played with 4 centre backs today and Stones played a hybrid right back/DM but they are all very comfortable on the ball and in the positions. The Chelsea defence especially Cucurella treat the ball like a hot potato

Cucurella at CB is truly head fucking!

A lot more than him are poor.
Has there been a signing who has looked the part yet.

Nope! They even seem open to selling kovakic as well?!

For sure. Badiashile has been great. Enzo has been excellent pretty much every game. Felix has been good more often than not. Fofana has been very good whenever he hasn’t been injured.

I would disagree that they’ve bought a load of shite but info acknowledge that having to incorporate so many new players isn’t exactly an easy job. But the bad results keep coming and I can’t keep absolving him.

Cucurella didn’t even have a bad game overall apart from that horrid mistake for their first goal. He can play RCB no problems. And we know James can play RCB, Tuchel played him there many times. I wouldn’t have played them though. I’d have played Badiashile LCB and Chalobah RCB and then James RWB.
