this game is f**king joke, as bad a Conte's game plan last year....can't put two passes together and letting them have the ball...disaster written all over it.

Just like that game, it feels like we are waiting for the inevitable. This tactic is clearly not working and it already needs a change. Get Hazard out of that false 9 position for a start.

Come on Chelsea

After about 10 minutes we dropped off - the front three stopped pressing in the opposition half. This obviously caused problems as we have been incredibly poor at playing it out of our own half. Hopefully we step back up - we looked far more effective at nullifying City at the start of the match.

That only flys for so long...........its his job they do as he says.

Some of them haven’t got the quality to play how he wants.

So we have 2 truly world class players in hazard and kante and the game plan is to play them both out of position ? Really

Alonso is giving me a headache. 

Aaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh ffs

Ederson looks like a better passer than all our defenders + keeper.

And we play the guy who hasn't scored for 11 games at centre forward - LOL

So what then? He wont go anywhere if he persist then. Change it up until the board backs him. Like this we aint going anywhere but down the table. This utd team are only 5pts behind us.

If he wanted hazard involved, would be more beneficial playing him in goals ffs

Kante cannot control the ball under pressure to save his life.

Hazard won't sign a new deal if he's going to play false 9 so I take back what I said.

This is awful, Watford played better against City midweek.

Honestly what do people want Kante to do?  He’s closed down immediately by two or three players and not a single chelsea player is making them self available to him. 

We don't have enough pace up top, to open up for the MF

Feel sorry for kante

Willian, that is the dumbest time to try a flick. Just hold it and run.

would be a great game to sub CHO

 

If ever there was a game that decides Eden joins RM in the summer this is it...as he watches world class players enjoying their football while all he can do is look at the sh*te that surrounds him.

Ref playing for City as well I see. 

It’s like they have 11 kantes

He needs to get his touch right to begin with. He's being crowded out, but he's inviting even more pressure when he gets that touch wrong.

f**kin alonso and willian ffs

I feel bad for Kante. He’s having a nightmare out there. 

If we can keep a clean sheet going into half time I’ll be delighted.
