Pre/In match: Chelsea v Liverpool (Sunday August 13, 16:30 BST)

Tim Howard upset that Robbie Earle won the Worst Sport Jacket Award yesterday. Vows to one-up him and does succeed.

What we need is a quality No.6 midfield holding player…if only there was some options to talk about :rofl:

Its a mistake to look at Robertson in isolation from the issues around the left side

Who would have thought it would be the left side of our defence having issues?

Although Szob has worked his socks off to help cover with Trent

Also seems he got measured for it 7 years ago

It’s been a year that we can’t defend or control a match and the way we’ve played in the first half and the preseason, it doesn’t look like it’s going to change anytime soon.

We are standing off and allowing the three Chelsea CB to have the ball, with T Silva starting their moves. That’s ok, but then Jota should be at least engaging Enzo when the first pass goes into midfield.

Klopp will give another 15 minutes befor ethe first change, which imo should be Curtis coming into midfield and move Gakpo to the false nine.

Szoboslai has been excellent, one of our best players. Very good showing so far.

Oh yeah I know other players stay in an offside position but they usually move back towards the line of defenders just before the free kick is taken but he is just staying there.

Thought Lawro held that title :0)

Yes, but he has lost in the foot race on a simple give and go when going up against James

Reports from London coming in that Just Stop Oil protesters stopped Chelsea on the road to Stamford Bridge only to instantly let them pass realising their coach, their players their fans and their whole F’ing club is made of the finest plastic that’s been recycled for a couple of decades now.

Stirling and Reece James are causing problems down our left, with Chilwell then being one the most furthest players down our right. Need a tweak to sort that out. Caught us out a few times.

I fancy Darwin to come on and score the winner. Someone get a bet on and split it with me

Has anyone already mentioned that we need a dm?

Pocchettino is on his best way to become a fat man. At least 30 pounds overweight for the time being.

Sterling is shite. Wasted career. Chilwell and James are their biggest threats

I am still at a loss on our kick offs, if Ibou in any other situation has all that time in possession and just aimlessly hoofed it we would be giving him pelters and Klopp would as well

I’m imagining Caicedo watching the game like Homer in the ‘Lisa on Ice’ episode.

I want to go to Liverpool…
Yes, definitely Liverpool.
No, I want to go to Chelsea
Definitely Chelsea.
No, wait Liverpool…

Stirling is 420 miles away FFS
