God, Iwobi was not up to it today.
Good win for the boys. Almost all put in an honest work for it.

This is the problem with CFC fans. No patience. The man needs a bona fife striker or 2 and an attacking left back & right back. Until that happens, play will be congested centrally making creativity difficult.ceejay22 wrote:I say get rid of Sarri now before he does more damage

Great win after a tough week. Hopefully we get more players, because our best player will be out ...
Bellerin shouldn't have played the whole game after 1 month on the sidelines. Should have played one half only.
I'm afraid, he is done for the season ...

Player Ratings:
Leno: 6.5: Great with his feet and commanded his box
Bellerin: 8.0: Was having an amazing game but unfortunately he might be done for the season.
GREEK BEAST: 10.0: INCREDIBLE INCREDIBLE
KOS: 10.0: BOSCIELNY IS BACK. What a GAME
Kola: 5.5. Got his wires crossed all game. His head was definitely in the clouds with terrible decision making
Chaka: 3.0: Horrible football player. Actually Gawd awful. Total short one
LT: 6.5: Played his heart out especially covering for a useless teammate.
Guendo: 6.5: always made himself available for the ball and his composure was exceptional
Abou : 6.5: Missed two sitters but he tracked back repeatedly to help set the defensive line. Worked tirelessly
Laca: 8.0: best game in an Arsenal uni. Was a terror as the lead presser and took his goal well. Head scratching decision by unai to take him off .
Ramshyt: 6.5: Ran around a lot but his decision making was very suspect. At least had a better impact than the worthless twerp parked on the bench would’ve shown .
Subs :
Iwobi: 4.0: Useless. Bournemouth is calling
AMN: 6.0: was not slated to play at right back but came in and had an impact but his decision making was questionable as well
El neny: 7.0: Why oh why won’t Unai give this man some playing time. His presence helped stabilize our middle with his passing under pressure and composure ... just needs to work on his shooting
Coach:
Great day for Unai save for the inclusion of Chacrap and the subbing of Laca. For a team under scrutiny and lots of question he clearly galvanized his boys and they all put in a shift today

Re: ARSENAL VS CHELSEA 2-0(Lacabomboklatt, KOS) 2H
Alonso is a wingback at best. Defensively he’s average to poor and attack wise he lacks the requisite pace. At this level (top 4) he’s not good enough for the position. Azpilicueta is good defensively (when the team defends deep) but Sarri likes to press and attack and he can’t get it done heading the other direction. Then of course there’s no striker. So there’s too much burden on the wing forwards to do more than their capabilities. When you have 11 v 11 but 2 to 3 are always unable to carry their bag, it will be a struggle.jdizzy wrote:What is Alonso?

Emerson had been on the bench for Sarri since he got here. Chelsea doesn't need to go buy another attacking LB just because Sarri doesn't see beyond Alonso's slow poke.

I like this .... You are not lily livered if you have won a league cup or FA Cup. Last I checked Chelsea has won 13 of those whole Spurs have won 12. In Europe, we have won the same number of trophies. The only difference is the league and thank God for Roman if you are a Chelsea.fan.green4life wrote:Abeg how is Chelsea more lily livered than Spurs? Really?

My definition - you were favorites for this match against a weakened and demoralised Arsenal. The pressure was on your team to perform and they couldn't handle it. Only one shot on target ... Who were you missing?

Re: ARSENAL VS CHELSEA 2-0(Lacabomboklatt, KOS) 2H
A mixture of both is necessary. The manager needs to be backed and he also should give the younger ones a try where necessary. But for that to happen, the club management has to adjust expectations. If you says ‘top 4 at all costs’ and ‘fight to win at least one cup’ then opportunities for the youth will be less. But if you are Tottenham that doesn’t have any pressure to win anything (carabao Cup is like wining CL for them), then the coach can freely test out all available options.danfo driver wrote:I thought Chelsea has one of the best youth systems in the country?

------------Kante--------------Jorginho--------------Hazard-----------
With Odoi getting games on the left. Hazard is a fantastic number 10 and I think playing him up front or on the wings is just a waste of his true ability.
Odoi should have been a started on that left, in my opinion.
