Fiancées at her bachelorette this weekend and I’m watching from the Chelsea pub though, so it will be a fun one nonetheless. That’s what EPL is all about
Better since the first 7 minutes or so. Gonna need them to make a mistake to score tho. Also, no Jorginho for next two games so Gilmore will hopefully get his chance soon.
Anyone here regularly go to their local pub? The Phoenix Chelsea pub is out in the middle of nowhere so I haven’t been since the 2017 Community Shield when it was still downtown. Brit’s in Minneapolis is legit though. Watched the second leg of the Europa semi there last year. They made the Arsenal fans go watch their match in a closet.
I used to go fairly often when I lived in DC (Four Courts) and when I was in Chicago (was the Globe but think it’s somewhere else now). Detroit one is too far from my house to go regularly any more.
It's like when Bane used to be our furthest player forward and was bagging goals at a pretty good clip.
Having two wide defenders that can get a cross in changes everything about how we attack these low blocks.
Incredible how bad we are defending set pieces. At least with the combination of tomori/Christensen/azpi it’s somewhat expected that we will suck in the air.
Love to know the difference btw the push on Kovacic in the first goal and the Azpi push in the United game.
Alonso is so terrible defensively there no reason for him to be pressing that high and be that far out of position
Another bad lineup chosen by Frank. Reintroducing Pedro or Barkley doesn’t change anything. This team needs to try a youth player or someone like Alonso in attack. We need a new dynamic. At least try it. What’s the worst that can happen?
and he’s the best striker of the ball on the pitch. Especially in a 3-4-2-1 he should be 1 of the 2 attacking midfielders.
It’s so unpredictable too. Like each individual defender has an immense fuck up in the bag for the absolute worst time.
I think it’s time that we stop trying to find a spot for azpi in the lineup. He isn’t the same 1v1 defender he was when he starred at the LCB in the 3 man defense under conte. Reece and kovacic are the only players that have played in today’s game who should be in contention to start next season.
Barkley and Willian in the midfield totally will eliminate some really nice pass sequence for a goal in the coming minutes
