What an awful game by both teams, tbh any opposition manager should know you let Chelsea have the ball and the defence gives up plenty of chances.

James dived aswell tbf

Isn't that the problem with stats, because he didn't directly give the penalty away it doesn't bring his average rating down? f**k knows, I just hate stats.

Let's not make excuses about the number 10 role, his been sh*t since he joined the club.

Already spent plenty of money on players lucky to make the bench let alone first team, lets not bother looking at players who could improve the first team.

Coventry would have preferred another 10mins rather than pens, probably favs aswell with how open utd was. With pens you have to fancy Utd, bigger players with more composure.

You do get one positive with Jackson, he didn't cost as much as some of the other crap at the club.

Doesn't really matter if 3 defenders was missing or none, Sheff Utd had players missing too and are one of the worst prem teams in history. Chelsea only managed 6 shots in 90mins, there was no positive to find from that result.

You work for Poch's pr team, that is some weird point of view.

The whole club is rotten from top to bottom, from the owners signings, management and a group of players who attitudes stink.

Who labelled Enzo and Caicedo world class? Maybe only the deluded mugs in charge. World class is a very small amount of players who do it season after season.

It's also the standard of those players missing, now we all judge players at different levels but no one has seen Lavia play and Fofana and James have spent 2 years injured. I personally feel even if Liverpool just had Salah back then the game would have been over pretty quick with the intensity and pressure Liverpool play at in those early stages.

That's the most worrying thing, after the chaos of all the subs Liverpool looked better in possession with the youngsters and Chelsea just waiting on counter attacks. I know its Chelsea's main way of scoring and it suits the players in the team but you would have thought if at any point in the season this squad could boss a game, put on continues pressure and create chances would be against a Liverpool youth team. Chelsea subs didn't help though tbh.

He would be a top player for Liverpool under Klopp, the final basically shows that. Shocked he chose Chelsea over Liverpool.

Got away with one there, f**ks knows how chilwell is marking VVD and Gallagher Konate at the back post.

Klopp showing how good of a manager he is tbh, lots of injuries, played midweek and Liverpool still look a top side. Poch had a week to prepare and its been pretty poor. Still think Nkunku gets the winner.

It wasn't physicality but movement which got Haaland ahead of Colwill on both chances, something which has happened quite often at left back too.

Would be hard for most players to have a positive effect on that Arsenal team when you have Havertz brought in to play in a midfield 3. One of the very few good bits of transfers done in the last year by Chelsea.

That's because he is bang average.

Preston and Middlesborough is Enzo's level at the moment, the guy has looked awful and makes Jorginho look quick.

You would have to be very lucky to get 50m for Gallagher so you would snap up an other like that. I just don't see how any top team would want Gallagher unless they see him as a cheap backup as 40m is cheap for the big clubs.

That does happen because he doesn't judge the flight of the ball well and loses he man at times, winning 70% of aerial duels could be against 5ft players for all we know.

Doesn't matter if your playing LB or CB, his defending has been pretty poor. Its understandable he won't be great going forward but his awareness, positioning and everything else you expect from a defender defensively has just not been good enough. Gets caught in no man's land quite often at the back post and loves pulling at opposition players shirts.

Pre season means as much as scoring 3 tap ins against 9 man spurs, f**k all.

Its christmas and Gol was bored so found some sh*t player to defend with stats, just watch the f**king games and you can see his sh*t.
