Unless we get some new players in or Broja flourishes this is what we’ll see more often than not in the upcoming season…….. not a pleasant thought.

Havertz is no striker

He wins the ball back though. 

Why does Havertz always try to finesse a finish. Why can't he just hit the ball hard? Same players, same finishing issues. We have created tons.

We are so wasteful!!  Mason Mount - either shoot or play a decent pass

Mount usually shoots from there, but he thought Sterling would run in front of the defender, but instead he ran behind. Dunno why Mount didn't go for it. We are getting so many chances, but it's the same old story with the wastefulness. 

From all them Leverkusen videos I watched the summer we bought Havertz he looked like the most composed player on the planet.  Recently he looks like he got none at all.  Hopefully he’s just a little rusty.

Callum coming on for a jog

finishing is pissing me off now.

For all,the fluidity of the front three, all too often it’s a poor pass, sh*te finish or overplaying

It's been pissing me off since Hazard left. Never seen a team like it.

vale coming on 

Still boring the pants off me most of the time when we are at the opponents 18 yard box, when we have the forward impetus to reach that point; generally no movement,  so the whole things just breaks down and stagnates in to passing sideways and backwards...

He’s been rusty for 2 years…

Werner looked an animal in front of goal at Leipzig.

We have seen it over and over, something just happens when they get in our team where the ruthless clinical finishing evaporates and they become a nervous wreck.

Hazard, Giroud, and Pedro all excellent finishers. Painful watching us waste chamves after chance. Almost guaranteed to end 2-2 this. 

Everton can score...they are 3-0 up against Dynamo in their friendly.

Its the prem although doesn't excuse the CL games but goes some way to explaining how we can win that but not the prem!

If Chelsea were musicians they'd definitely be a jazz band.  Moments where its sublime, but most often sounds like a group of people playing different songs at the same time. 

so close

If link up play won us points we'd be in with a good shout this season, unfortunately football requires putting the ball in the back of the net

Sterling's nimbleness

But then he wanted to stay after the China deal fell through.

I don't think he did. Even after his first season there was talks of him wanting to leave because he couldn't settle in England. 

lol should of scored odoi

He looked like he did from his celebrations, the "all talk" celebrations in January I believe then putting the Chelsea badge in his mouth in the FA cup final.

What a giant mansion in leafy london wasn't good enough? haha head shaker

CHO receives the ball, stands still, waggles his foot and then passes backwards nine times out of ten. 

Good enough for Tom cruise but below a bull fighting spaniards

hilarious

Drogba no1
