You've got a watchable team with all that young attacking talent. Very watchable. Brilliant performance. To go to Ajax and beat them at their own game takes some doing. Could and should of been more. Lampard is doing a great job. Edited October 23, 2019 by Kadilo 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post keithsimmonds Posted October 23, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted October 23, 2019 No pun intended but i thought we "wiped the floor" with them in that 2nd half......Kovacic again his work rate was unbelievable. Brilliant performance and again super subs from Super Frank at the right time..... 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldgit Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Can't complain too much about that, can we? A top performance from start to finish. As the game wore on, I was thinking "We're actually better than these but we've got to turn that superiority into goals." It took us a while but we got there in the end. Someone mentioned that Ajax haven't lost a game since April! Individually. it's frightening how good and how much better Tomori can get. Kovacic was immense again with Jorginho not far behind. Hudson Odoi went into his shell after a couple of sloppy bits of play but he's young and still learning. Look at the players we've got to call on! Kante, Rudiger, Christensen, Loftus -Cheek and Barkley plus a few lurking in the background. Intense competition for places now with confidence flowing right through the whole squad. Giroud is a World Cup winner and is still banging them in for France, but he's our third choice striker! Anybody know why Jodie was booked? Burnley next who will be a different team to the one we faced last year, when they were involved in the Europa League and were out on their feet. Let's hope that we can recover in time to overcome what will be a physical encounter. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithsimmonds Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Tough one for Frank tonight,as in who are his 2 wide men,perm any 2 from 3 in Cho,Willian or Pulisic...pace pace and more pace.Picking players for the bench aint any easier either.....lovely position to be in.

keithsimmonds Posted October 26, 2019 Share Posted October 26, 2019 Liking the Kovacic Jorginho double act. Not really having to bust a gut like we did the other night. Cotc 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldgit Posted October 27, 2019 Share Posted October 27, 2019 Although coming off the back of a gruelling game at Ajax, the energy and enthusiasm displayed by the team was outstanding. It blew Burnley away until the last five minutes, when one or two of the team stopped working. A boost to the confidence of Pulisic with that hat trick, all three very well executed. He's not the quickest, but his movement and intelligence off the ball is very good. An interesting substitution by Frank, switching Azpilicueta to left back and bringing on Reece James at right back. This might be the sign of things to come as, given this season, Reece James will be playing for the England senior team in a year. What a talent. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithsimmonds Posted October 30, 2019 Share Posted October 30, 2019 I would be surprised if Tammy Mason Alonso Kovacic and possibly Dave are in the starting line up tonight. Cho to start along with Bats Reece and Emerson. No matter what the knockers say this is imho a great competition to keep the full squad happy.....and at it.

Cotc Whilst I'm generally in favour of knockers (double entendre entendred) I agree with you on the Football League Cup/Milk Cup/Littlewoods Challenge Cup/Rumbelows Cup/Coca-Cola Cup/Worthington Cup/Carling Cup/Capital One Cup/EFL Cup/Carabao Cup. It's still worth winning and any day out that ends up with a pot at the end of it is a good one. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithsimmonds Posted October 31, 2019 Share Posted October 31, 2019 Neither Cho or Pulisic did enough in that 1st half imo. 2nd half much better team display Alonso at fault for both goals along with Pedro for the 2nd.

Not the way we normally play, out from the back. The second half was much better with more urgency to our play and we were building up from the back, not waiting for scraps from knock downs. Reece got forward more to support our attack which added impetus. Their penalty was soft but that free kick from Rashford was out of the top drawer, dipping and swerving all over the place.

They use a different ball in the League Cup....one that is known to move around more than the one they use in PL fixtures. Fair play to Rashford who had been practising with it in advance. Only seen it the once but did it also take a slight deflection off someones head? On second viewing, maybe not.

Yes a dip in form on Weds nite Will see how Lamps reacts to that performance. Pedro a headless chicken and nothing to offer???? Brings bags of experience to the Lamp.s Babes 5 Aliga Titles. 3 Copa del rey crowns . 3 Champion Leagues. 3 European Leagues 1 Epl .1 FA cup. 1 Europa League 1 World Cup 2 World Club Under Lamps. more of a sub due to Willians recent good form. but must be a important squad member due to his brilliant playing stats as high lighted above which surely helps the Babe.s come into their own playing career at Csea a Headless Chicken ????

Pecking order )is in my view open to discussion. Yes Pedro.s silver ware career is coming to a end .But still provides cover for Lamps. should it be needed. not to mentioned his presense.

keithsimmonds Posted November 2, 2019 Share Posted November 2, 2019 Well what a totally disjointed half that was. How many times did Dave give the ball away....don't answer that, he will be replaced by Reece for sure?? So glad i put Willian in my Fantasy team.....how shytte and looking totally disinterested was he. Need a good team talk from Frank and Jody at h/t and a full blooded fully committed Chelsea to come out and finish what is a very poor Watford side off.
