Absolutely planless again. 

Oh dear hoof ball now

Yea we haven’t got a clue how to break a press 

Well what a surprise, hazard isnt getting the ball

Hazard as false 9 is torture usually but Sarri's tactic was to keep Willian because he is getting into chances just change his side so Hazard goes to the middle and that way Pedro can also play.

Maybe this is how we should play until we buy a striker.

Not too bad a start - other than clumsily losing the ball in a couple of stupid positions (Jorginho must be more careful) we've mostly been successful at shepherding them into wide areas.

Really struggling in possession mind...

It's been a very poor start more like, they could and should be leading. We are being dominated and if it continues like this, it's only a matter of time before they score.

We simply have no midfielders that can drive the ball forward. 

Its honestly like they have 2 extra players

Let's hope if we lose its not a battering

Headless chickens running around chasing the ball. When we finally get it we have no idea what to do 

Kante has had an awful start again, he's constantly giving it away.

I thought Barkley was playing really well

all of a sudden he can’t get a start ?

at least he drives forward

Do we see the issue with Kante now or? He looks helpless out there.

Pretty much zero pressing ... they have so much time on the ball ... and we look diminutive and slow to my eye ...

It feels like Sarri is trying to sit back while simultaneously pressing. We are pressing with no intention or effort it just looks lazy 

we just can't play proper football anymore

More like the players have shat a brick and forgotten what Sarri told them to do. 

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.

think we'll see him in the final 30, reading between the lines on sarri's comments, make it a game for the last 30 then attack

This is torture 

been well and truly found out just like under scolari

It’s pitiful watching Hazard running and running for no reason whatsoever 

Genius Alonso.

We look like a bottom table team. Cannot make a single pass.
