Alonso, what the hell has happened to him? He just looks completely gone.

Badly need Giroud, just need a presence up top

He's getting double and triple teamed when he's too far forward, looks like he's trying to give himself more room. 

This is the problem when the other team doesn't have to be worried about multiple attacking threats.

Well he needs to adapt and move the ball quicker. He holds on to the ball far too long.

This is dreadful

The only problem with Giroud coming on is that it would be for CHO, the one play who’ll get the ball in to him. 

Or we could get Alonso off and go 3 at the back.......will never happen though.

away goals don't count this year, it's only 1-0 we're still in this

f**k off kane

What the actual f**k. He’s been our best attacker and he gets taken off Hazard.

 

I love Eden to pieces but he shouldn’t be untouchable when he’s playing poorly.

Should have come on for Willian.

Don't understand Sarri’s reluctance to deviate from Plan A.

Giroud at last not for cho though

Need to put crosses in now or play longer up to Giroud

Honestly, it's just as frustrating to watch as it was last season. I don't think we were that bad in the first half, but this half has been sh*te, it's just so boring to watch. We just pass the ball to death, nothing ever comes from it. No running in behind the defence, the rest of the team stands still when Hazard get's the ball. There is no movement.

We took the only player willing to cross and put good balls in to the box off.

We probably won't cross it now that giroud has come on

I'm not disagreeing, but he's got nobody to pass to.

And Jorginho looses ball again.

 

Should have taken Jorginho off and gone 4231.

surely a yellow ?

it's a cup tie over 2 legs, we're managing the game why chase a 2 goal lead away from home

Hazard isn’t totally blameless though, he hangs on to the ball and slows it down sooo much, which is fine when he’s on fire but when he’s not having a great game it needs to be faster.

Sarri doesn’t deviate from his formation or tactics.
