keithsimmonds Posted August 28, 2021 Share Posted August 28, 2021 Probably 3 changes from last week,hopefully Kante starts...would also like to see Werner start up there with Big Rom....1-3 but would take any win....especially with that Manc twatt refereeing.

Popular Post oldgit Posted August 29, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 29, 2021 Dogged, determined, organised and disciplined.......European Champions. This is a squad of players that are at the top of their game and refuse to contemplate losing. Tuchel brought this about, the collective being more important than the one, so Lukaku had better learn fast that, if something doesn't go your way, you knuckle down and try and change the situation instead of standing there, arms outstretched and remonstrating, because no one is interested. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post keithsimmonds Posted August 30, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted August 30, 2021 Good for West ham and Zouma..i liked his attitude....take that with you to West ham and you will be a cult hero in no time..big thanks for the years you were with us. Also if it is true...have to give a big thumbs up to Willain for cancelling his contract with Arsenal and saving them 20 mil in wages....unlike that greedy snivelling argie cnutt. As for Saturday...almost a great 1st half for us but definitely a better 2nd given the circumstances.... Whatever Tommy is on he deserves it...15 minutes to calm down re assess and make the changes like he did for that 2nd half...blokes a blaaddy genius imho. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, excellent signing by yer 'Ammers Keith. The one weak link in the 'Ammers defence was slow coach Dawson. Now Moyes has remedied that with Zouma. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know why we weren't in for him, even the option to buy price looks too cheap. Yeah I get you re.predictions and I think we should (considering) have beat you on the weekend, but you have such strong first XI, with a master coach and tactician, who does what Klopp does with players, makes them better. All going well enough injury wise I can see it being fought out to the end this season, City, Chelsea and Liverpool all vying for top honours. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post keithsimmonds Posted September 12, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 12, 2021 Definitely had the rub of the green there ...in refereeing decisions all 50/50s went our way and even the 60/40 to Villa went our way.despite that we were worthy winners imo. 1st half good bad and ugly,but we came through and although we were somewhat fortunate to keep Villa out i trusted our boss would make the necessary changes at h/time which he did and deep down thought Villa would not be able to match there 1st half performance or be allowed to. 1st game back after a break was always going to be a bit of a fact finder....fact is our keeper is top notch and so is the defence...and Lukaku is nailed on to score 30 goals. All good then. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithsimmonds Posted September 12, 2021 Share Posted September 12, 2021 Also nice for us Blues fans...is to see Conor doing really well at Palace now that Vieira is playing him further forward and Marc Guehi doing a good job in the Palace defence (think we have a buy option on him)..added to that Broja so nearly won the game for Saints (nice little 14 minute cameo) and Livramento performing really well in his starts for the saints defence (again i think we have a buy option on him). Great opportunity awaits Barkley in the Carling Cup game coming up against Villa (he is bound to start imo) play well and another loan or possible sale will be on for him in January. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stament Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Barkley and Drinkwater need to go, the sooner the better as they are a drain on our wage bill. Thankfully DW has left.

Popular Post keithsimmonds Posted September 15, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted September 15, 2021 That was hard work, so got to give full credit to Zenit. We stayed calm and got the result we wanted and hopefully everyone finished the game unscathed. Thought Kovacic and Rudiger were both excellent...and it is imo difficult to see Rom ...not scoring. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldgit Posted September 20, 2021 Share Posted September 20, 2021 First thing I'd like to say is, Thiago Silva is the best centre back I've ever seen in 60 years of watching football. He's a master of his craft. I only wish we'd got him 5 years earlier. Skilful, intelligent, cool headed ,works hard and inspires those around him. Secondly, Thomas got it right yet again by subbing an under par Mount with Kante at half time. Spurs never got a look in, in the second half, which we completely dominated and could have easily doubled our score. Kante coming on, gave Jorginho more time and space to set up attacks while Kovacic was everywhere. Havertz didn't have much luck going his way, but worked hard to compensate while Lukaku bullied their centre backs into submission. Kepa came in and did well. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pleased for Kepa,got a run out didn,t let anyone down, and good for his confidence. Roman was probably pleased by that as well nobody wants to spunk 70 odd mill on a dud. He will get more games and with a consistent defence in front of him...can only be good for everyone. Great second half and all that but there is still loads to come from this squad...i still think both Pulisic and Werner will benefit from big Roms presence. Chance for a few to put themselves in the January shop window tomorrow.....should be a good watch.imho 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithsimmonds Posted September 23, 2021 Share Posted September 23, 2021 I was right it was a good watch imo. Chilwell got no change out of Cash for most of the game and took a lacklustre penalty. Cho chose the fancy option a few times when not necessary,but i thought most of the other lads had a good game. Sarr was pretty solid on the left side of a back 3, Saul was a lot better than he was on his debut (against Villa) Rubens was solid and made some nice moves,Werner full of energy as usual Chalobah was very good,some may fault him for there goal but it was a very good cross by Cash and a great header by Archer,nothing that Kepa could do about that. Kepa was solid and Tommy has done a great with him along with the goalkeeping coaches. Well done lads. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
