If Conte has no intention of keeping Moses around why start him twice ahead of Kenedy?

Tbf we have no idea of conte's plans.

"Good goal by Chalobah, i mean Loic Remy there. But disallowed!"

 

He has no clue.

 

Did he get it right this time ? 

Well done Nate, made absolute mugs out of two defenders and the finish was very tidy. Very impressive.

 

That game was good fun, got to see a load of the youngsters and ultimately we completely dominated from start to finish. Very enjoyable evening.

Almost a third for us and a 2nd for Rubén.

Fantastic goal from Chalobah!

Terrific!

 

It was a great run from Atsu for the 2nd RLC goal. Not sure if he's Chelsea grade, but he deserves more of a look into. Still think Moses should be kept ahead of him.

Tbf we have no idea of conte's plans.

 

Maybe unlike Mourinho he won't send our best player in pre-season on loan again...

Has he already said we're not keeping him in the squad? Tbh he was ready for the squad in 2013

Just me thinking aloud.

There's not enough space for Willian, Hazard, Perdo, Caudrado, Moses and Kenedy.

I'd say two have got to leave, even if on loan. So I'm surprised that Moses has played so much in these first two games.

Maybe his play style closer resembles Pedro or Caudrado so that Conte is able to start getting his ideas across?

We have been unfair to Moses.

 

I think Chalobah and Aina deserve to be regular in the first team now.

Maybe unlike Mourinho he won't send our best player in pre-season on loan again...

Marco Marin was once our best player during pre-season. Just saying.

Not African enough though.

Enjoyed to watch this match, we were the better team on the pitch and scored some great goals. All of our youngsters have scored, that's a good point.

 

- Loftus-Cheek has made a big improvement from the first game, great performance from him today.

- Batshuayi showed good things, he's very creative and has a good ball control, very important for him in EPL.

- Chalobah shows that he still can save his career here.

- Moses continues to impress, our best player so far.

- Aina continues to impress as well, more experience, more minutes for him and he's ready to become a starter for us.

 

Come on CHELS, let's get ready for our season!

Well so far no one but last seasons loanees have left (I think) hopefully Conte is going to keep a bloated squad for half a season and give everyone a chance before shipping out in Jan/next summer.

Can see the improvement and fitness improving already which is a good sign, Aina and Chalobah both looking good Michy looking sharp and Matic looked pretty good too.

Still not sure about 442 though don't think it suits our players.

Moses and Aina put in a great shift, great goal by Chalobah

Well overall I'd say that was a really good performance from the squad considering it is only our second game of pre season.

It was night & day between Saturday for me, I appreciate the opposition is a lower standard.

Willian, Moses & Aina really stood out for me p, Oscar also deserves a mention for his performance.

Batshuayi looked like he has something to offer in his time, just felt he should have taken his shot when he beat the keeper.

some of the young boys done really well in there time as well. Bertie, RLC & Chalobah with the goals, you can't really ask for more than that!

Still key players to return as well, a lot less gloomy than things were looking on Saturday for a lot of people hopefully!

It will be interesting to see how we do in the states with another weeks training against big clubs like Madrid & Milan... Then we get a easy tie against Liverpool as well!

better than opening game.

 

However, some signs of shaking defending.

 

Rahman definitely needs to stay away from the first team and go on loan awful at times today.

Impressed by Batshuayis movement and first touch, was very good bringing wide players into the game. But surprised he didn't shoot though, needs to have that killer instinct like Costa has.

Really impressed with ola aina but not at all suprised.

Rlc looked as good as ive ever seen him. Maybe having an top class midfielder like conte, barking instructions from the touchline might be just what he needs.

Traore and moses were both lively, as was atsu in his brief appearance.

Made up for chalobah, would love him to part of the swuad next season.

Hector was decent aswell.

Batshuayi looks very good, really good technique and passing.

Well so far no one but last seasons loanees have left (I think) hopefully Conte is going to keep a bloated squad for half a season and give everyone a chance before shipping out in Jan/next summer.

You can only name a squad of 26 I think it is, obviously you have the homegrown and under 21 players but basically we've got to trim the numbers down somewhere especially as it looks like we're not finished with our summer recruitment yet either.

My guess is Oscar, Papy, Moses, Mikel and Caudrado won't be here come the end of the transfer window.

from these two matches, evidently we're going to use 442 next season

Problem is Conte already said he wants to keep Cuadrado...

Oscar is finally being tested in a new CM position which I've always wanted and Moses I always felt could be a decent backup winger.

Papy and Mikel I agree should go.

I thought we looked pretty good, we looked creative and worked hard, Oscar and Moses ran the show. Not sure on the back four, Aina has talent though, I'd like to see more of Hector, Djilobodgi can pass, but maybe not Chelsea standard, it's nice to see some talented young players, seeing two Englishman on the scoresheet is a bonus, onwards and upwards.

Moses I always felt could be a decent backup winger.

He's working his ass off to stay, which has to be admired, I think we should definitely keep him, even as a back up option.

I think we can all agree that it will be completely worth keeping Cuadrado, just to see FC's reaction.
