Thought Kepa should have come for that cross for there goal but he did make amends with a save near the end. Thought the Referee as usual was thuccking useless.....i know i,ll let everything go then i,ll book someone for a nothing challenge.....they are all <deleted>tt. Onwards and upwards for us.. Kovacic and Kante, in his slightly deeper role, were top class. The extra pace and energy these two provided was great to see No room for passengers in this game as Villa are a energetic, pressing outfit so everybody had to be on form, which fortunately we were.

As an aside y'all sure got rid of Luiz at the right time. I'm sure, in time, he will fulfill his potential, but let him do it somewhere else, maybe on loan to a club in Spain or Portugal. He's actually 6 foot 1 inch but looks about 5 foot when those crosses come in. We need a confident, dominant 'keeper who patrols his six yard box with confidence and instills the same confidence to the defence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithsimmonds Posted December 6, 2019 Share Posted December 6, 2019 If there is a deep rooted problem with Emerson,then we need a left back imo, Dave cant play there week in week out. Giroud Pedro and Alonso are all surplus,we have Ampadu, Conor Gallagher & Dujon Sterling to recall plus possible 3rd choice striker with Ike Ugbo...I think on the whole we are okay.

deej Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 (edited) My pick of the crop would be Pedro out . Zaha in Giroud most certainly to go and to a lesser degree. Alonso who replaces them leave that to Lamps and Co As for goal keeper Kepa .sure that Lamps . will not let him go .as his squad are presently running a very creditable fourth and to bring in a new Goal Keeper would be absoulately crazy. just as crazy as the member who suggested a on loan period to the end of the season etc etc Now thats about dumb as they come Lamps is savvy enuff to wait to the end of the season for a new goal keeper if needed My view is Kepa has performed OK under ( at times) a flimsy back four which is Cseas achilles heel particular crosses coming in and too many times during a match Go The Chelsea Babes Edited December 7, 2019 by deej Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kadilo Posted December 7, 2019 Share Posted December 7, 2019 Zaha is a big fish in a little pond in terms of natural talent. He stands out more and gets more attention because of this. If he had been playing for Chelsea he wouldn't get half the attention because they already have more than their share of Zaha’s. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deej Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 (edited) Apart from James ..Diabolical defending from the back 4 against the toffees who were fired up particularly by that early goal as i posted yday and at least 6 weeks ago is Csea.s poor defence is their achilles heel. Lamps will never pair Zouma and Christenen in central defence again or perhaps both not to start ever again .Rudi (if fit)and Timori (why Lamps chose Christenen over him is a mystery to me) would be be my picks to unravel this slow thinking defence out and a decent C/B bought in the next TF window. Kolovic was Chelsea.s man of the match IMO and proving to be a top notch midfeilder. Summing up . Lamps honeymoon is over. and am sure he will find a answer (particular defence) to keep us in the top 4. PS No leader on the pitch is also a big worry is my call too Edited December 8, 2019 by deej Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldgit Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Ofcourse, now that that nasty, 'orrible Mr. Silva who tweated the Everton players so horribly and was nasty to them and upset them soooooo much, has gone, and now that Big Dunc is in charge, the players decided to put in a shift for once instead of sulking and hiding. If I was an Everton fan, I'd have gone down the local market, gathered up as much rotten fruit and vegetables as I could muster, and let them have it at the final whistle. F*****g tarts. Chelsea? Nothing wrong with our midfield and attack who were lively throughout, it's our defence that is Frank's big headache. The sooner Rudiger is back the better. Even if it takes a few matches for him to get match fit, get him in post haste to marshal and bully the back four and that frightened rabbit of a goalkeeper we've got. For the world's most expensive goalkeeper, he likes the feel of the goal line under his boots too much for my liking. Petr, put in a bit of overtime on top of your usual job and sort that c**t out.

keithsimmonds Posted December 8, 2019 Share Posted December 8, 2019 Rub of the green for me,never a 3-1 defeat but that,s life. Christensen can be accused of being a little weak in the air, Dave has had better games and at times we just overplayed it. 8 players in there box nearly every time we went forward and bounce deflections ball control everything went there way in there box and went there way in our box.....sucks. No dramas...if we were outplayed then cause for concern, but that was not the case. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
keithsimmonds Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Nice to see Rudi back and looking in good shape.Kante excellent again and nice touches and footwork from Pulisic. Jorginho sitting a little deeper look better and overall the team had a good shape to it imo. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oldgit Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 A much improved performance with Rudiger, Emmerson and Jorginho back in the side and with a point to prove. All made their case to Frank emphatically. Two goals but it should have been more with Willian, Pulisic and Abraham causing all sorts of problems for their defence. Some sloppy passing in midfield allowed them back into the game but it was a comfortable win. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deej Posted December 11, 2019 Share Posted December 11, 2019 Pleased that Lamps Babes. progressed through to the last 16 .from a very tricky group and icing on the cake that Rudi is back ???? Now sign Nathan Ake in the next window (40 mil is a mere snip) which will add more stability to our defence Go 4 it Lamps . Ake is your man????
