The signs are very promising - he is one of the few Chelsea players that I've been able to put into my fantasy football team without it immediately jinxing him (so far, touch wood, etc.)

That puts him in such esteemed company as:

- Ivanovic

- Lampard

- Drogba

- Hazard

This makes me nervous!

His celebration after Alonso's goal just showed me flashback of King Drogba.

 

What I like about Abraham is that when he misses a chance, he won't go hiding. So many of our failed strikers just give up after one big miss. Abraham just let's out some frustration and get's back on with it.

He also doesn’t go hiding in the wings after getting a few kicks...

Despite not scoring, I thought he was actually good, Lascelles got away with a few elbows.

Well BBC gave him MOTM.

I don't think he was in the game in the first half, second half he would've probably got a hattrick on another day! The block that Yedlin made against Abraham is one of the best bits of individual defending i have ever seen.

That got me thinking.

CHO - is the new Hazard

Mount - the new Lampard

Tammy - the new Drogba

Tomori - the new Terry

RLC - the new Ballack

James - the new Ivanovic

Kante - is Kante

Premier League dominance here we come.

Didnt know where to put it so putting it here since Tammy was the player fouled.

But its hilarious to see Klopp crying like a baby and refusing to accept his team was pretty average against united and didnt deserve anything.. I know its the usual tactic from managers but the media has jumped onto his wagon..

I would like us also to make more fuss about some decisions that go against us.. if we all remember there was a clear foul on Tammy in the Sheffield game as they broke and score against us.. i think VAR operates like DRS in cricket where in cases of doubt stick with the "Refs's call"..

I would want us to create more noise because it reeally does influence refs.. Fergie did all the time.. I will be surprised now if Pool dont get more 50/50s their way in the next few games..

Looks good on papers, but lets not kid ourselves these lot have a loooooong way to go!

 

Especially Tomori after his last few games, JT was sensational

Tammy maybe getting a better contract:

Just a little tongue in cheek really, they are all new individual players with their own future to create.  It's looking very bright at the moment, but I'm still not getting carried away.  We have a long season ahead for dips in form and the initial new manager boost to maybe fade.

Exactly, we're still in that early success phase.. Look at what happened to Ole after that lucky period was over. 

We got a long way to go, but at the moment things are definitely looking good

We didn’t really get a manager boost though. We showed bits and pieces but overall we probably got what we deserved at the start with results. This past month we have seen improvements throughout the team as the team becomes more comfortable with the type of football Lamps wants to play. 
I know there are going to be down periods but overall I think we’ve a good team and a good manager and we’ll go from strength to strength.

This is him celebrating the Alonso goal he had no hand in. Really heartening to see some passion from a true son. You can tell he genuinely loves it just like us fans. 

Not sure if you peeps heard this or not, but TA ran onto the pitch to congratulate Bats for his game winner vs Ajax - class act IMHO

I remember Bristol City fans coming here saying that they loved him because of stuff like that, they felt he really cared for the club. 

 

shows to me that this team has a togetherness to will them through the tough times

Every game that Tammy scores a goal, I have this opinion that he could have scored at least one more if not two more. He's basically still improving and learning to be more clinical, a legend in the making.

I think Pulisic could pass him the ball in the second half to make it 3-0, but he decided to take a shot.

Anyways, a goal and assist by Tammy is enough for me. Next target is Ajax!

Step by step turning into a real goal influence for us.

So far he's looking like the best centreforward we've had since Drogba, even better than Costa imo.
