61% and 5 shots against 7 to Wolves. Think we need to see more balls played back to Silva, out to full backs, back to Silva. We haven’t seen near enough of that this season.

We are attacking better today. Nkunku is not a CF as I see it, would rather have him playing off a striker, but better than Palmer as false 9. Palmer not as effective playing wide on the right. Gallagher is adding nothing to this match so far. Silva too slow for a back 4.

It was pointless having VAR the other night. Had Tierney given our two pens VAR would not have overturned him. Had he not given their one, VAR would not have overturned it. People on VAR duties should be stronger and overturn ref decisions, they get multiple views from several angles.

Keeper!!!

Almost equal possession 51/49% and we managed 4. This f**king about in our own half has to stop. Unfortunately a lot of it comes from Silva who can stroll about passing all day however the rest are not so blessed and more often than not get caught on the ball or give wayward passes when under pressure. Our style of play comes from Poch, I expected something more progressive from him. A number of lesser teams this season have shown that the scum can be got at the back but you need to be brave. We just rolled over to them from the start.

We have been awful tonight and deserve to be well beaten. However the refereeing has been disgusting. They get a pen which shouldn’t, and not given 2 obvious ones. WTF is going on in this league.

Shocking run by Mudryk.

Not sure what spurs spent I think probably the best part of a £billion so I doubt they will make it back anytime soon. Thing is if you want to a big club and looked as such you have to keep up. Otherwise the whole image and relevance of Chelsea will sink.

Villa 3 down to Newcastle at home.

Jose came into the Premiership which had been dominated being by two very strong managers in wealthy clubs. Ferguson 38 trophies incl 13 Prem, 5 Fa Cup, 2 CL. Wenger 17 trophies incl 3 Prem and 7 FA Cup. So I think Jose achievements far outstrip Klopp considering 3 years and done it from the first season. Klopp is a good manager but this hero worship is way OTT.

It’s all about Klopp, Klopp, Klopp. Just the way he wanted it I suppose, why announce 6 months early. Maybe just not as brilliant as the scum and media would have you believe though. In charge 8 and half years. 7 trophies (3 big) EPL 1, CL 1, FA Cup1 (4 Mickey Mouse). League Cup, Community Sheild, Super Cup, Club World Cup. Not as if he took over a sh*t team, they were 2nd in EPL 13/14 season. Also broke world record fees on CD and goalkeeper and had one of the best goal-scorers already there. For perspective. Jose (Chelsea 1st spell) 3 years. 6 Trophies. (4 big) 2 EPL, 2 FA Cup. (2 Mickey Mouse) 1 League Cup, 1 community shield.

Hear and read so much sh*t about this. Pity I have to come on TSE and see a thread dedicated to him. 🤮

A good Centre Forwards job is 1. Score goals, 2. Hold up play, 3. Bring all the other players into it creating goal scoring opportunities. 4. Keeping their central defenders under pressure. Not in that particular order but they are all important so that if his goals dry up at least he in contributing. At the minute we are not getting any of these especially with a false nine.

And Ake scored!!!

I wanted a CF on so we could let Palmer drop deeper where he is more effective.

Petrovic, another solid game and a couple of decent saves.

Exciting Friday night football. 4 matches-2 goals unless spurs city score in last 15.

FFS

We are hanging on!!!

Come on Poch do something. 15 mins to go!!!

Here come Villa to try and snatch this.

I think this game should tell Poch no more Palmer at false 9

Well played Alfie. 👏👏

Are there replays??

The modern pro footballers have no shame. Go to ground rolling about on slightest contact.
