Shock. We play Jorginho and we’re dull as f**k. The rest should be slated just as much

At least when he starts the game we are not 2:NIL down at half time...

We’ve been playing dull far longer than Jorginho came back into the team. Jorginho hasn’t done much for the team this season but the Jorginho blame game is getting old at this point and missing the bigger picture that the football lamps  is letting the team play is what is actually dull.

Came on here to say the same. There were a few games during the unbeaten run - like at Burnley and home to leeds - where you could see the team going in positive direction. 
but last six weeks not only have results been poor but I watch the team wondering what the difference is between this chelsea and sarri’s (minus hazard). Having Jorginho and Kovacic on the pitch doesn’t help. Doing nothing as always.

I think the only difference between this and Sarris Chelsea was that 'style' of football had a name, not sure Frank will be rushing to call this Lampardball anytime soon.... I would love to know what the vision is that all of these transfers clearly bought into when they moved here.

Everyone keep saying this is going to be hard wtf are you talking about we spent £200 million we should be putting Fulham to the sword this is really non-negotiable anything less that a comfortable 0-3 win should be unacceptable Fulham played midway also.

No excuses here win put them to the sword.

f**king no changes so we can expect more of that boring play from the first half. Frank needs to haul off kovacic and pulisic

I don't think it's a case of players not playing for the coach. I actually think it's more to do with how Lampard sets them up tactically. We are predictable, lack creativity in midfield and just rely on crosses into the box. 

We just don't seem to be playing to the players strengths.

Formation and tactics play a part, but strolling around, passing it slowly, not pressing is an indication of basic attitude and desire. Something that’s been lacking for weeks.

ah getting outplayed by 10 men

and no changes hes obviously happy with how we are playing

Someone remind me which team is playing with 10.  Can't tell from watching.

If a chelsea player kicked that ball away would have been a yellow.

Look at 3 of Chelsea's recent signings, Havertz, Werner and Ziyech. They all came from teams that played fast moving forward passing free flowing football. The opposite of what we are seeing here.

Convict & Marmite in the same sentence sums up Marmite perfectly.

Pulisic has been awful so far. Still nowhere near up to speed. 

Is it just me, or has Pulisic been completely underwhelming this entire season?

I don't understand why he doesn't play the players who are most likely to create/score, which is CHO and Havertz for me ... CHO is the one winger that is less likely to drift inside, which is better for our overall shape, and Havertz just needs to play AM behind the striker and he will assist/score ...

god let this be over

I think he's trying to prove a point, just not sure what it is?

Thought Giroud had scored that for a second 

Any changes that do come are often too late to change things.

He really shouldn’t be starting; living off his exploits last season, surely that credit should be running out.

Goals are really hard to come by.

Movement is poor off the ball he has no space.
