Still not sure why Chelsea sold Zouma. Is he prime Maldini? No, but a very solid defender. With Rudiger looking to leave and Silva aging, he’d have been a solid one to keep.

Zouma struggles in short possession / build-up from the back (although funnily enough his long distance passing is very good). Lots of teams were targeting him as the pressing trigger and he was making too many errors.

He's a solid CB but just didn't fit Tuchel's plans. His transfer was a good deal for everyone.

We should have put 5 past Burnley yesterday:snoop:

Not enough goal scorers :mjcry: fullbacks scoring every game was never going to last.

The 10 goals scored against the two worst teams in the league gave made people forget the forwards are a mess.
