Different system, as many asked for. But unsuprsingly it makes no difference when so many of our players are just not good enough.

No one asked for a 442 with Jorginho and Gallagher in the middle and Loftus cheek on the right wing.

it's more Cucurella's mistake for the second yellow with that terrible pass 

he shouldn't have made the foul for the first yellow, that was unnecessary 

I agree it was terrible, but Conor was way off with the challenge, not even close.

He was utterly utterly useless.

The yellow was silly.  The red was pure stupidity.

Like a mad dog chasing cars. Same as last week.

Nah I disagree I thought he was playing pretty well defensively, won the ball a lot. Then he got booked and it was downhill, still can't believe that stupid second yellow.

Yep, both been terrible. We have 5 subs, no excuse to not use them.

because we are now only ten, you must react and sub at least one of Mount or Havertz who are terrible again.

Sterling is not, and never was, world class. He’s Timo with a better first touch and more diving.

Always said he was a pointless signing if we weren't going to get the players around him. City got the best out of him because they knew his strengths. He is a player that thrives on movement around the box and arriving to score from crosses. Watching him in a Chelsea shirt is like watching him in an England shirt.

I came into this match thinking this is an ideal day to play Leicester with their low confidence and Forfana & Maddison missing.

That feeling is now gone, we’ll do well to get a draw out of this game now.

Many congratulations!! Guarantee you you're having a much better day with her than suffering this crap. 

This is 4 games in a row that our forwards have contributed nothing, zero, zilch. Why cant Pulisic Ziyech And Broja get a chance. We cant keep slating them because they dont produce in the scraps they are given every second game. Give them a few games and lets see if our fortunes change.

Yeah, it's becoming increasingly clear that he can't do what he's being asked to do.

That goes for half the team....TT needs to sort out who's good at doing what as opposed to making the players out of position...but he won't

Thank you! Some fans felt he guaranteed 15 league goals, can’t see it. At this rate we will be lucky to get 10 league goals out of him. All on £300k/w+ 🤦‍♂️

I don't think he was doing well before the yellow card. Positionally he was awful, it would have taken one decent pass to open us up. I also noticed early in the half that he pushed up and got in the way Jorginho. He didn't look like he had any control in his game.

Difficult to say who was worst of the lot, that half. I never saw a touch from Mount, Sterling was dross, and Havertz looks so lost. Gallagher was stupid, no argument there, but isn't being played in his best position. 

 

RLC and James are the only at acceptable levels, in my opinion,  at the moment. 

 

Decent build up play, no final product. Rinse and repeat. 

 

Broja on, FFS.

They’re like for like IMO. The reason Timo didn’t work is because no one in midfield fed his runs. We’ve spent £47.5M to have the same problem with a new player.

So frustrating this season, a slow performance and win against everton. 

A great performance then robbed vs spurs.

absolute sh*tshow vs leeds.

dodgy offside decision and then a bright start ruined by reckless indiscipline today.

 

The start to this season should have been full of optimisim with the new owners and new signings, but it's feeling like Mourinho's 2nd spell where it's hard to see where a win is even going to come from.

Stupid form Gallagher but I blame Tuchel for that. Leaving him as one of your last man for a corner when you know a team can counter whilst he is on a yellow is just poor.

Same with Koulabily last week. Clear the game was over. Should have taken him off whilst on a yellow.

Mount off. Right call.

He better wake up.

he's lucky he didn't get a straight red for that

Ironically if he did VAR would review it and if they don't think it's a red he would stay on the pitch lol

How can you be doing well defensively when you get booked for a silly Foul you didn't need to make and then sent off for a foul you didn't need to make within half an hour?

He just looks like a player with no intelligence and little technical ability which hinders his passing and he's trying to make up for it with his physicality and workrate.  Coupled with him being so eager to impress he's a complete positional liability just like last week.
