    Match Threads Chelsea vs Spurs

    Technically poor, physically weak, mentally blurred. I think we get so much of the ball because no opposition is scared of having it.

    Really don’t have a clue in the final third, do we?

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    It will be interesting to see how we go next season. When the wheels have been rolling nicely, we run along nicely but when they start to come off, with a key player absent or an in form player injured, Ange hasn’t yet shown an ability to address it quickly. That said, some of the players are...

    Match Threads Chelsea vs Spurs

    If only we could try and force it through an overcrowded middle, then go wide but not put a cross in because we’ve got fuck all upfront. If only we tried that for a 762nd time

    Well that’s a new low. Two spurs players go for the ball and they still both lose out. I would say there are players going through the motion, but the lack of intensity and concentration is alarming.

    1 v 1 we are so weak, it’s not just set pieces but it shows it up most clearly. Aside from Romero and VDV, I’d fancy every other player to lose a duel against an opponent, hell even a stiff breeze would cause them to struggle

    Considering he has also had plenty of time on the training ground with the players it’s not a great sign that we have got steadily worse, and have managed to not only stop the same errors/issues/patterns from happening but allowed new ones to slip in.

    If we are relying on the keeper to come and claim each corner then we’ve already failed. Vicario has to do better, but fuck me the setup is atrocious. All the attackers are allowed a mostly free run, we are so deep and static that no one is moving to the ball, so someone always gets their...

    We e got some big defenders, but we’re set to play musical statues not football when the corner comes in

    These goals from corners - entirely on Ange now. No excuse anymore

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    Got to give him time - this team was always going to take time to turn around, he’s lost the best number 9 in the world, to be competing for a champions league place is a good achievement. Yes, I do expect us to move on to another level of performance with another pre-season and more squad...

    Match Threads Newcastle vs Spurs

    Got to cut out the sloppy mistakes for next season. Far, far too often one of our players is caught out on the ball, outmuscled, or just makes an absolutely woeful decision and it costs us a goal. it’s not just a couple, not even a few, but far too many for our team with our aspirations. First...

    His defensive play has certainly taken a dip, I thought he didn’t help Draguson against Fulham, and in the first half against Forest he was played around so easily several times. What was pleasing was in the second half he was not committing himself so recklessly when closing the opposition...

    Player Watch: Pierre-Emile Højbjerg

    PEH is probably our only decent long range passer and can give us a different dynamic. He also plays much better in a partnership with another central midfielder (Bentacur being the best candidate) but probably needs a partner because he isn’t quite able to cover the width of the pitch, but can...

    Simply phenomenal. Aside from just good performances at the start, he has been immense and blends youthful athleticism, with a mature head who feels like he’s been here 5 years already. A sign of a truly great player, he just makes everyone around him seem better
