Emerson has been poor. Provides no attacking width, just gets the ball, then turns and passes it back. Same as Moses on the other side. Literally no invention going forward from anyone.

Nobody has been good, but he atleast looks like he gives a sh*t, also he has been better than 80% of the team today. Alonso would be murdered down that left hand side if he was playing

Absolute dross. Poor all over. Seen on twitter some want him out before the cup final, well that wont happen - but he will go IMO.

 

On sky pre match interview he was so disinterested, it has to rub off on players.  We need an uplift in mood and morale.

No changes?

We’ve lost games where a least we’ve tried. They literally look like they can’t be bothered. 

we've won and drawn games where people wrote us off too. i don't think the players lack fight, it's just the unimaginative formation and tactics mourinho and conte have had here. okay, morata hasn't been as clinical in front of goal, but that's nothing to do with passion and fight. 

To top it all off our tops look pretty bad

Best thing Chelsea have done all day: belt the ball into someones bollocks

Sack conte at half time and get him to give bakayoko a lift to the dole office

why do we need a manager, let the players choose the tactics and the team

Still our Chelsea.. Conte was not  the problem till chritmas.what  are bakayoko and barkley  doing out there ? Were are the kids ?

Moses and Zappacosta aren’t out and out full backs and would be poor defensively. Alonso too slow,  Emerson the jury is still out for me. Dave would be a waste to go back to full back but an option.

How is Azpi a waste if that is ideal role? I doubt the next manager coming in would play him as a CB if he intends to go 4-3-3. He has all the tools to play 4 at the back, and an astute manager would hide the flaws in his players.

I know people love emerson, for some reason, but why do you always have to make up stuff to discredit Alonso to big him up.

The formation has always been the problem. 3-4-3 makes us vulnerable in midfield because the 2-man pivot is expected to take on too much responsibility of both defending and connecting the ball from defense to attack. Conte always plays 5 defenders every game regardless of the opponent and always opts for wingplay while our midfield suffers.

EXACTLY !!! this has been our problem ever since matic left and moses and alonso showed their limits. An ageing pedro and an ageing fabregas did not help either with that ... And I am not even talking about the fact we sold Costa too !!!

What? Thrashing Alonso is definitely not a habit of mine, but i do think that Emerson is better

Not you, Just people in general when talking about emerson.

What a goal that would have been.

I've seen enough. 

 short corners should be banned in football

And the new look web site is sh*t as well ... :-)

3-0 Liverpool. Solanke...

What an effort Giroud.  We need to stop with the short corners

Neither are good enough, Alonso is an excellent standing tackler, but poor crosser and the slowest player in the squad, neither can shield the ball. Palmieri hasn’t shown anything worth taking note either. Imagine we had Ashley Cole there, over whole of his career neither Cristiano Ronaldo or Lionel messi got the better of him.

Solanke lol,,,,i was just thinking it couldnt get any worse.

Might aswell put one of those free kick mannequins in midfield instead of Bakayoko

I was a bit peckish, so I ate an apple, and that did the trick.
