  1. I know Pulisic provided the assist to Batshuiyi but apart from that I was less than impressed. Although few minutes were awarded to him. Frank has been heavily criticised on SM for not giving him enough game time but if he’s not proving himself in training he’ll struggle to get in the team, simple really.

    Thank ferk we’re not relying on him in light of resent departures. He was seen by many as a stand in apprentice for EH. Thankfully others have stepped up

  2. Correct. When he arrived in 2013 his new team mates and Chelsea staff couldn’t pronounce his family name (neither could I) so they nicknamed him Dave. It’s stuck ever since.

    I remember commentators having a right mare with it.

     

    It’s also hard to spell so we all use Dave or Azpi instead

  3. Well I didn’t expect that, happy for the win especially over Arsenal.
    Sad because I actually realised tonight that Hazard will most likely leave this summer.
    But hey, we’ve had players leave and retire before, life goes on[emoji170]

  5. I’d rather see a team prediction than a final score prediction.

    My preference:
    Kepa (no better option)
    Azpi (no better option)
    Rudiger
    Luiz
    Emerson
    Jorginho (no point hoping for any other option)
    RLC
    Kante
    CHO
    Hazard
    Higuain (as I doubt Giroud will start)

  6. CHO played well in parts, really direct and pacey with some good skill.

    However you can understand Sarri’s comments about him learning still.
    For starters he had 2 or 3 opportunities to stop their goal early in the first half. A weak attempt at winning a header and 2 tackles he was too afraid to make let them in on goal. Ok he’s not a defender but he has defensive responsibilities.

    My other gripe with him is that twice during our goal celebrations CHO was apologising for misplaced sloppy passes that lost possession. Ok we won back possession and went on to score but how often is it the other way round? You lose possession from lazy play and the opposition scores? That’s just normal in the BPL or CL.

    Yes I know........he’s only 18.
    He needs to listen learn and improve which I hope he does

  7. Don't need a striker, Jorginho will bully them in the middle, Kante will find "the Lampard touch" of scoring hat-tricks from midfield and Pedro will run both of their full backs ragged - at the same time.

    Things you wish for but are sure won’t happen [emoji85][emoji85][emoji85]
