What a strange comment.....I didn't follow another club and then dump that club to become a Chelsea fan because of CP......millions of Americans have become new football fans over the last few years, and I am one of them and am proud to be a Chelsea fan.

I love CP, and as an American he's the reason I'm a Chelsea fan. But I have to be honest he is wildly inconsistent.....I think part of it is he is learning to play differently. I think with the injuries he has lost some speed, so he can't attack Like he used. When is the last time he took his man on and went past him? ....I will say his finishing has gotten much better. I can't listen to these American pundits. "Oh he scored the game winning goal vs WH, he has to be starting." So dumb. He's not scoring 20-25 goals plus a year. And if he were he would start every match.

I agree. Mount, havertz and CPs skill sets compliment each other so well - Mount has the great engine, very very good striker of the football from any range, can play that great pass - Havertz is silky smooth. The most technical footballer we have. Great with his head. Links up excellent for a player that far up the pitch - CP is a tricky quick burst winger who has good instincts within the 18 yard box. Direct and a goal threat. And any of them out of injured or out of form ? We have Ziyech and all that he has to offer with that left foot of his.

Hatrick tonight against Panama in a must win game. 2 pens. And the 3rd goal was beautiful. Nice control from the pass, turn, nutmeg and slotted into the corner. Big game player.

Timo has been the more disappointing of the two because of his age what he had already achieved. Kai is interesting....he is very talented..."the next great thing in European football" that's what he was billed. I just don't see that. He came here as a number 10 type player and I dont think his vision/passing ability is good enough to be a great number 10. He is a good goal scorer and I think 15 goals a season should be in his reach in the next couple of years.

I like how Ziyech was arrogant even in celebration. He was like "no Pulisic, after that pass you come to me and celebrate" haha.

When has Werner wreaked havoc on any team? Let alone that Man City defense.

Huge huge year for him. It doesn't help that he's a natural winger and right now we don't play with wingers. My guess is this will be his last year at Chelsea....selling him with 2 years left on his contract is ideal. TT looks at MM, Werner, And Kai as cornerstones and looks at CP like a rotational piece. Maybe rightfully so because of his injuries....and I LOVE CP but it's just how it is.

It's been Said a thousand times but Mount is not a winger....hes never gonna be a winger. Southgate has to know this! Play only 3 attacking players and Mount OOP is insane.

I just have a feeling that Ziyech gets the Start today with Mason and Timo.....if it's not clicking or we are chasing the game then Kai and Pulisic come in.

He has not played well against any good team this year except Real Madrid. But how good was that Madrid team that night? That's my problem with starting him.

Pulisic and Havertz are young players who are just like the 99% that have good games and bad games. They are not nearly finished growing as players yet. We get spoiled by the Haalands and Mbappes of the world who are the exception not the norm. For the final I would start Pulisic due to how City setup, his prior success against City, and he seems to play better on the big stage. If he is playing poorly he gets yanked at HT for Havertz.

I dont understand how he left Azpi at RWB when we went down 1-0 or at all tbh. If Azpi can't play CB in a back 3 then he should be on the bench. I'm sorry. "Ohh Grealishs pace" blah blah blah. Every winger has more pace then him. And we are already setup in the most defensive of formation for coverage.

Funny you say this. My liverpool supporting cousin said Salah for Pulisic last week. He loves Pulisic - only 22, natural winger in a 433 and he saw what Pulisic did to them last season. I can't see it happening. Pulisic would have to push for it. Why would he leave London? I haven't heard anything about Werner leaving.

I'm guessing it's because mounts better on the left.

Was not his best game yesterday. I agree with many here he plays best with a hold up nine to play 1-2s with. Hes played better but hes not the player we saw after restart last year. That player will come next year after a rest. Will be interesting how TT sets up next year. CPs a natural winger....if they play 2 up top with Timo and a new 9 there r no wingers.

His improvement with the ball at his feet has been great to see this year. He always has been amazing off the ball....can't wait for next year playing 433 with Mount in a Lampard role! Will take his game even higher.

How could you put Pulisic, and chilwell on the list? Pulisic was an absolute gamechanger for us before he got hurt. His problems have been injuries. Chilwell has been very very good for a vast majority of his time here. Havertz probably came a year or two early. I cant wait to see what type of player he is in 3 years. The talent is there. He will be so good. The Werner signing is the puzzling one. They had to know his limitations as a player. Not a great first touch, not a good dribbler in tight spaces. He was known as a player who got alot of great chances because of his pace but missed plenty. I just don't think he's good enough to build your team around him...hes not a Lewandowski, or Kane world class player and he never will be.

From when Tuchel took over in February until today May 17th. Fighting for top4 with everything in our hands. Losing the FA cup final and making the CL league final. I would have taken these scenarios everyday and twice on Sunday. TT has done a great job overall.

I actually like this team and it would be an amazing change up for TT. And we need a huge shakeup. If we lose at least it will be in a formation trying to score.

I dont understand TT post-game comments saying how unlucky we were to lose the game. OK our biggest grief was the handball that wasn't called, which we know these handball calls are 50/50 and who the knows when or if it will be called. We created absolutely NOTHING for 70 minutes!! How can you win like that? Trying to win every game 1- nil. Zero margin for error. Zero creativity, we deserved nothing.

As I said in the other thread when you play with 1 less attacker and Kante is your best offensive midfielder it doesn't take a rocket scientist to see why we have struggled to score goals.

Man City won't change there game if they score first. They will go for goal 2 ...3 ..and 4. Go for our throats....what really really good teams do.... And if they score 2 goals we are done.

Disappointing today. I just don't think he does enough with the ball at his feet. He had 2 3 on 3 chances in the first. First one he sky's the shot, the 2nd one he dribbles it wide, terrible contact.....and look at there goal. A screamer from further out with perfect technique. I see his qualities but I just don't think he's good enough.

Let's park the bus and hope to nip a 1-0. Our only chance really. We don't create enough and all they do is create.
