Pretty much the same game they had against United, looked good for the first 20-30 minutes but gradually faded more and more as the game went on, they still really vulnerable to the counter attack and could only see Leicester winning the game in that second half.
Was Maddison onside? They didn't show a replay of it.
Watching Tielemans there was frustrating. Did some great stuff but some really dumb stuff aswell.
Not after 2 games it's not a given!
Remember that when you're going for 4th, you can get a lot more crap results than going for the league.
remember the bun fight of crapness last year where everyone was losing each week!
2 matches people.
The press were trying to say Tielemans could replace Pogba in the summer too. Not even close.
Frank's Side Bottom.
He looked offside for me.
I just think we are a top class striker short, which will hopefully get sorted in Jan - and need Rudiger back at CB. Can see RLC starting, too when fit
Not even remotely close. Tielemans is bang average.
Chelsea will easily win this league if football was played for 30 mins only
Are you not banned in January too?
Where’s Batshuayi?
Real easy. Has a lot of pals in the media.
They are, but Chelsea fans are under this delusion that their justified ban will be reversed.
Cheaters don't prosper, they should extend the ban just because it's fecking Chelsea.
It's alright saying 2 matches. If we were sitting on 1 pt and already 5 points from the top, it would be Ole out!
Maddison will be one to watch this season. Probably top of Ole’s list given nationality and PL proven anyway. I see shades of Kevin potential in terms of chance creation.
Always said that only Frank Lampard, Steven Gerrard of Harry Kane would be given a little time as a United manager!
No - but Norwich (a), Sheffield U (b), Wolves (a), Liverpool (a) - they need to find form really quickly...or they could have a really poor start
Only saw the highlights of chelsea-leicester, first half could have been 4-0 chelsea, second half 4-0 leicester. Fair?
Maddison spoke very well there. You can tell he's a natural leader and motivator.
Top class strikers don’t exactly grow on trees though, it’s an enormous piece to be missing. I think there’s more issues than personnel though, at least based on the evidence of the first few games. Trying to figure out why you lose control in the second half seems to be the prominent issue.
Yeah pretty much.
The press were trying to say Maddison could replace Pogba in the summer too. A decent shout.
If that was true Kane, Alli and Bale would be playing non league.
we are, but supposedly the reason we accepted it for the summer and did not ask for it to be frozen (which would have almost certainly been granted) was because there is solid grounds to expect CAS to reduce it to one window. (which has already been served) That's what the story was at the time.
The freezing of our ban was nailed on if we'd asked, quite simply due to the timetable where CAS would eventually hear our case, but once the window had ended. But there was also talk if we'd appealed just to get it frozen, they could look unfavourably upon it and simply keep the original punishment in place. But regardless, the absolute maximum time remaining on our ban is 31 days of a window.... feck all really
Young player gets stick,shock!
Yes.
Agreed, we were briefly linked with him this summer too so I reckon he’s on our radar, he’s a boyhood United fan too. Considering we gave them £85m for Maguire can you imagine how much they’d want for Maddison
The People's Brendan successfully auditions for the Chelsea job.
Young player or not, a bad match is a bad match. A good match is a good match, I'm not an ageist
Could have been 2-1 to them at HT last week against us.
They look a little bereft of ideas once they don't press home their advantage
I don't give a shit what religion you are
I always thought he might come back to Chelsea as boss some day. He's a decent manager.
