Match Thread | Chelsea vs Man City (05/01/23)

What game are you watching if you think the formation is working?

We're wide open in the middle of the pitch and have next to fuck all bar an out ball to Cancelo which I imagine Chelsea are encouraging because he's absolutely shite.

At least 3 occasions we should have opened them up. Overloading the front will leave space behind so when chavs counter it’s a problem. Better than the boring passing we have watched recently.

If the players can sort it out we win this game 1-3

Someone mentioned about liverpool being burnt out,do we look the same maybe the last few titles have took it’s toll on side bar 2-3 players ..

I though the exact same but is this under instruction from pep to keep possession?

He’s struggling in that regard too.

Hopefully we see Alvarez second half.

At right back?

Apparently Lewis and Akanji are out warming up

Wrong two for moment surely

Pep saying to the board, I want new players

Pep saying to himself "lets set the team up outrageously. He does that from time to time

Apparently Lewis and Akanji are out warming up

2 defenders? Yes that will really show Chelsea

Never see lads in Stockport wearing gloves…….

Hahaha that's what I said! It's not cold enough to wear gloves,when ur from Stockport!! I got told playing that if u need gloves then you aren't running enough!!

First time in ages that I've felt Pep is causing the problems. I genuinely believe he is playing weird formations and making strange selection choices just to prove a point. Not sure if that point was 'the world cup in winter was stupid' or 'I know better than the fans'.
