Preview: Chelsea v Everton

[Zeitgeist]

DCL has great movement and desire to get the ball but his awareness needs work, the overlap from sigurdsson simply has to happen.

We are terrible with 3 at the back, I don't understand why RK keeps using it just cause other managers are it's crap.

Thought Sigurdsson had some good moments tbf

 

[Abraders]

Depleted sides 3rd game in a week away against a very good Chelsea team and people are falling to pieces
a bit of perspective needed, disappointing performance but we are a work in progress

All I hear on here is 'time to gel' 'work in progress' and 'played 3 games'

Truth is we are crap

 

[USABlue]

we haven't won away in the league in the last 10

 

[Davidoff]

Not sure what koeman sent the players out to do, not sure they did either

 

[collymcd]

Rubber chicken to a gun fight

 

[svenboss]

Meh, was always on the cards when you play deep and passive against a good team.

 

[ProZ]

Koeman has dropped a massive log in the pit here not sorting out our attack, we need a nimble player who can drop the shoulder in the middle of the park.

 

[carolinablue232]

MOM poll could be interesting....

DCL wins. Besic probably second. Good thing they combined for 65 minutes.

 

[technojoe]

Should have lost about 4-0 today. Players look knackered. Sandro big load of guff

 

[Abraders]

Calvert-Lewin. Easily.

Besic for me

 

[everton2004]

Well that was utterly dreadful. Onto the next one.

 

[Paul Rideout]

I'm sure your armchair management would break the voodoo without us competing financially with the big clubs. It's a poor performance today, we're a new team it's disappointing but it happens a few times a season, especially away at The Champions, I won't be wetting the bed about it.

Again with the "you should be manager" routine. I like Koeman but he has ballsed this up 2 years on the spin trying to play 5 at the back. Do you agree?

Do you think we played better once we changed to a back 4?

I don't want to be a manager, I just want us to be better with what we have. To all and sundry we aren't playing well with 3 at the back

Do you agree?

 

[BlueStevie35]

I'd be more forgiving if we had had a go BEFORE the first goal and lost, but that was utterly woeful and hopefully it's a one off based off a long week of travelling and games. If we even dare go 532 at United, they won't be as forgiving as Chelsea

 

[Osamabindiesel]

It was a cowardly performance tbh. You have to allow your players to be adventurous every now and again. You have to bring balance into the side in games like these. He waited until Chelsea brought Pedro off to inject any pace into the side. You can't play like this an expect a result against a clinical Chelsea side

bang on with the NBC people
