Why on earth has this game gone ahead

its madness 

Is Saul holding Tuchel's family hostage?

Chalobah didn't look to be moving all that comfortably during the last five minutes or so. When we were on the ball he'd drop into defence and one of Azpilicueta or Silva would move forwards with the ball. Possibly not a coincidence that we enjoyed probably our best spell in possession during that period...

Considering also that he has been booked, and I imagine we'll see him subbed at half-time. If Tuchel is too worried about injuries then it will presumably be for Barkley (surely not Saúl), if not then Kovačić.

Pretty dismal first half. Ziyech and Pulisic in particular have been abysmal, James and Mount have been trying but struggling, and overall we are having real problems trying to play through or around their press.

Haven't quite been driven to drink yet, but there is still a lot of game to be played... come on Chels!

driven to drink = great idea, thanks!!

WTF!

TT off the rails?

Saul for the win?

looks like the cost of beating Juve in terms of injuries has just unbalanced us so much, add to that the other people who have picked up knocks since then and now this Covid thing - it's a nightmare.

we are though pretty safe in the top 4, we're not going to win the title, we could have a decent go at the cups and the Champions League - maybe pick up the World Club thingy if we can get back on form by February.  

I wouldn't even say top 4 is safe right now. 6 points clear of Arsenal as it stands, which will be shorter if the likes of Tottenham and United win their games in hand. We are two poor results from being dragged right back into it, and it seems like those two poor results are inevitable with the way things are going.

Saul on for Chalobah

No he fcking didn’t just bring Saul on 

Ain't Watching The Game, But How Does Saul Keep Getting A Run In The Team

Saul is Tuchel's Bakayoko

Well now we are screwed 

Let's look at the positives here... at least he's partnered with Kanté.

Tuchel is purposely trying to get sacked. Saul coming on, I’m turning off.

Maybe its TT's way of forcing the club to buy someone in January.

Very considerate of my stream to go down 45 seconds into the second half. Wanted to put me out of my misery so to speak...

hope it’s nit an ego thing for those booes after Everton game

James is playing like he doesn't care. Pathetic performance from him today.

The Chalobah midfield experiment didn't work now we have Saul on. 

Great.
