Chelsea are up for this like. I have to concede that.

They'll be in a game second half though. We can create and take one chance. Calvert Lewin should have buried his header.

He should get out of the way for Mina to make a header there.
 
Good idea having Hazard have a free run at Coleman and Keane all day cause they haven’t gotten done by him 3-4 times already

You can double up on Hazard without using your main attacking threat.

We paid 50m for him, Silva waxed lyrical that he can play upfront so we don't need a striker, why then put him on Hazard duty?

Then we wonder why we can't offer anything going forward. DCL isnt a hold up man and Richarlison is miles away on Hazard duty.
 


This. Bernard, Richarlison and Siggy are useless in a 4-2-3-1. Play a 4-3-3 and let them all run, or drop to a single striker. Our midfield is so non-existent, the ball narily makes it up to the front four with enough control to actually run the ball up in there with purpose. Why do you think they’ve been dispossessed 31 damn times??... because they’re NEVER charging the ball up on their terms. Simply reacting to a desperation fling kick from the CB’s or Gomes/Gueye. Reactionary offense < attacking offense every time. But there’s no such thing as an attack without a midfield...
