Reece James always does the same in every game, he is decent with how good he is getting up and down the pitch but I think the standard has dropped. Azpilicueta might be slower but the guy is only 31yo and in terms of link up with players and finding the pass and creating chances he clearly at the moment still has an edge over James in that aspect and then defensively he obviously is the better option the only issue being not getting caught with the pants down because he will likely get bullied on the pace game. Reece can get better but I knew people were overreacting when he started more games, hopefully he can learn a thing or two from Dave because he clearly has the potential to be one of Englands best RB's that's one positive and another being I like his work ethic always put in a shift unlike some others.
Talking of that kind, Tammy Abraham completely lazy a guy so tall and you would think he would have some ability to hold up the ball but nope terrible at that, bad at aerial duels and finishing with headers (DESPITE BEING 6ft3 or taller) not particularly pacey, poor off ball movement, weak finishing, weak link-up play I can't help but think what Chelsea would have achieved by now if we had a prime Diego Costa upfront... Tammy needs to leave he doesn't fit the system maybe at a smaller club like Brighton he'd do well. He might have got the goal today but he was easily the worst player on the pitch, the only redeeming thing for Werner is he isn't a lazy player who is willing to try Tammy does little of that and expects everything to be put on a silver platter for him, take a look at Harry Kane not exactly the most pacey or athletic guy but his workrate is unquestionable his link up play is great and he can even get back on defensive duty.... We are settling for an English striker who isn't even really better than DCL, Bamford, Rashford and I'm sure you could name more and part of this is all down on Frank who must have some blind allegiance to the guy.
Lampard coming to manage Chelsea is a nice feeling, a complete legend but you cant ignore the glaring issues that he has brought to the club since taking over. Many many key players prior to Lampard taking over suddenly taking a huge dip in form in Kepas case essentially rock bottom. You see these same players who cant do it for Frank (likely poor man management and weak set-up not suiting them) suddenly going on national duty and looking competent and in Werners case looking like the player of RB Leipzig standard. The club can't expect to spend £200 millions worth on high end prospects for Lampard to not use them in their appropriate position and for him to not get the best out of them. Lampard has no more excuses anymore whether he wanted that cash splurge or not its not excusable.

I don't think Marcos and Lampard are seeing eye to eye right now, I'd be surprised if we ever see Alonso play another game for us with Lampard in charge.

We've got to use players in their best positions...Werner in the middle up front...CHO on one wing, Pulisic on the other...I think it's time Alonso comes in from the cold as Chilwell is clearly not fit and Emerson is dreadful...also maybe use Gilmour to man mark Grealish...

Appealed the transfer ban which was good that the club proved that they weren't as guilty as the FA accused the club of, but I have to agree with you. Maybe its Granovskaia at fault here, the way we chop and change from targets i.e. we wait until 2 weeks in the January window to actually get a move on we look at Cavani and Dembele then seemingly give up, boom now we're apparently looking at Piatek and Mertens with a few days left. It just looks so disorganised and I have to say I feel sorry for Giroud who has done nothing but been a good servant for this club who hasn't had a single chance in months! I wouldn't hold anything against Giroud for wanting to join Spurs he won the club the EL.
We ain't signing s*** this window, what a pity because we definitely need some reinforcements to try and secure a top 4 place.

I decided to take a look on Skysports to see If they talk about the blatant elbow to Giroud face, but nope nothing really mentioned the main focus is placed elsewhere so once again because Toon aren't perceived as a big club their players will be able to get away with this, yet when Costa stamps on someone there are reports about it by everyone AND Costa gets banned for it...
Lets not forget that when Troy Deeney flipped a section of away fans off he got no punishment for it, kinda shows the true colours of the people that are in charge.

This kind of Chelsea treatment by the media has been going on for so long that, it is part of what is considered normal. I will be more worried if they start supporting us.
