Did his genius use of subs get the three points? No, thought not. And as for his cringeworthy prancing along the touchline that's just embarrassing. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiago won't be ready so I reckon Christensen alongside Rudiger and Azpilicueta. Kante's nearing his best so I'll have him alongside Kovacic for this with Hudson -Odoi starting on wide right and Emerson wide left, then Giroud up front with Mount and Pulisic. Plenty of energy in that team! I wouldn't touch Ziyech with a barge pole at the moment. He's totally out of sorts. Have Werner standing by on the subs. bench although he's entitled to start really. Man of the Match before the Saints game. I don't think Herr Thomas will be saving a few players for Sunday's big game. He can't afford to have half hearted types for this one. Havertz is ready to play. He's got bags of skill and it's only a matter of when not if with him. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your team looks OK Og,the real positive thing for TT is that he can make 5 subs if necessary...to coin a phrase "could be a game changer"???? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithsimmonds Posted February 24, 2021 Share Posted February 24, 2021 Excellent result only Giroud could score that type of goal.Another great performance from Mount who received a ridiculous yellow card. Werner worked hard all night as usual.Ziyech when he came on played some great balls and even Havertz little cameo was good along with Kante...only shame is we cant have 5 subs in the Epl. Well done TT definitely done Simeone up like a kipper....oh and Suarez will not go unnoticed in the 2nd leg as he will be the one wearing a Dress....Tart. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They showed no interest in closing us down in the first half, which allowed our midfield to dominate. They played like they were in a Simeone straitjacket. It was only after our goal that they came out of their shell and showed some quick, intelligent passing and movement. However, we were outstanding in defending our lead, everybody putting in an impressive shift and getting organised. Christensen had one of his best games for us. It's vital that we show the same concentration, flair and resilience in the second leg, because they are a dangerous side. Yeah Keith, the subs. all showed what they can do.

I thought it was a good game to watch with plenty of skilful football by two evenly matched teams....but we created the better chances. I thought we dealt with their high press extremely well, playing the ball out from the back with precision. Plenty of good performances of note with Rudiger the man of the match for me. What it showed is that we are a team full of confidence, willing to work and hard to beat. We just need to put away the chances. A very good place to start would be Anfield! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deej Posted March 1, 2021 Share Posted March 1, 2021 (edited) ^^^^^^???? Better then last Nil Nil ,against MU, but like to see us,score more then one goal,only even once in awhile????

Yep, an entertaining game despite no goals. I particularly enjoyed Rudiger's brief tete-a-tete with young lad McTominay. Very funny that, and Rudiger seemed to be enjoying himself throughout the match. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithsimmonds Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Good win in which everyone played there part...gotta have a few hospital passes thrown in to keep everyone on there toes.....just adds to the drama. Cant really pick a motm....Werner non stop and unlucky to have that goal ruled out, Mount great goal and all round play excellent Christensen Rudiger solid at the back...Kante everywhere as usual....probably give it to TT who is finding his best match day squad....and making subs at the right time. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post oldgit Posted March 14, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted March 14, 2021 We can't have too many complaints on this match. A point is about all we deserved. I don't think we played badly at all, it was that Leeds were very good in closing down our midfield when we started to set up an attack. Defensively, we were very sound again with Mendy bringing off a couple of crucial stops. There's no doubt that, with Kalvin Phillips in midfield, Leeds are a much stronger, tighter team. I've looked on a couple of other Chelsea forums and noticed that Kante has got a fair amount of stick. Why? Gawd knows, because his energy and tackling were top notch. Maybe our finishing was not the best but we were up against a disciplined, quick team who, all the time Phillips stays fit, will be a tough nut to crack, especially at home. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deej Posted March 14, 2021 Share Posted March 14, 2021 (edited) ^^^^Nicely summed up , OG ????When on song,Leeds are ,in my view, the biggest bananna skin,in the EPL. so arguably,a vital away point,towards this gigantic tussle for a C/L place. King Kante , I would,nt swap him, for any present EPL midfeilder,he gives all, every match ,that will do me anytime Edited March 14, 2021 by deej 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For City to win the FA Cup we've got to beat the top 4 in the PL? What are clubs joining together against us? We're in the Semi so there's only 2 possible opponents in the competition, Chelsea in the Semi and the winner of Soton vs Leicester.
