Another trash Havertz game. Genuinely starting to lose all hope with this guy.



He's an 8 having to play further forward because all the 10s and wingers are garbage. :manny:

Havertz gonna lose his spot soon.

We should just use Werner as a decoy at this point to open up defenders. His finishing touches is on par with a handicap version of Morata.


Him and Lulu up front would keep defenders on their heels.


What a game by Thiago :wow:

If Mount, Havertz, Ziyech etc keep stinking then Lukaku and Werner should be played more as a partnership.

these German coaches........

how did they find the cheat code to soccer?

looking at both starting 11. Chelsea is not even that talented more than Spurs if we keep it buck.

but they completely dominated that second half away.

Havertz, Mount, Ziyech are not even close to world class and don't touch spurs attack.

These german coaches on juju

Micah Richards calling Ziyech one of the best dribblers in the league :gucci: I'm convinced he's never seen him play. He can't dribble and plays football standing still. His go to move is a cross-shot to the far post.

You lucky b*stards. Just like Jose left the 433 at Chelsea Conte left the 343/3421 legacy.

Tuchel is a common sense manager. Can't play a back 4 with these defenders and certainly not with people like Jorginho and Kovacic in midfield who can't track runners.

Served a proper apprenticeship at a small club and didn't leave at the first eyelash flutter from bigger team. Basically spent 4-5 seasons perfecting gameplans tactics and philosophy before leaving. What Tuchel has over everyone else at present is that he is more flexible and doesn't have a one mode of playing. Chelsea ever since Jose first time around have always been a efficient team. Never played the most :wow: football but know how to get results vs anyone. Tuchel is just following in Chelsea modern tradition.

I mean is your players are so well drilled in a certain formation that it continues to work even when the architect has left it still runs like clockwork years later

True. The players from Conte's time in the starting 11 today were all defenders (Azpi, Christensen, Rudiger) so they clearly know the system and it works for them. I wonder if signing Kounde would have given Tuchel a chance to play 4 atb.
