Shame, we really are missing his creativity especially while the side is trying to settle in to it's stride.. Would like to think we can win this but we will role them dice tomorrow and see what we get... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Getting fed up with Mount on the wing Jesus ive never known anyone like you for loving people only to throw them under a bus a minute later. Not being horrible but you really are a true Chelsea fan.

Not being horrible but you really are a true Chelsea fan. Because wanting a central midfielder to play in central midfield is definitely a sign of throwing him under the bus. Not being horrible, but you spout shite. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dr. Gonzo 4,876 Posted October 2, 2020 I really really hope Palace win, but I have a feeling this’ll be a match where Well Fed Frank’s Chelsea get 3 points while looking unconvincing. I’d love to be wrong though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Devil-Dick Willie 2,006 Posted October 3, 2020 Boring as fuck. Chelsea lacked speed and penetration and Palace happy to hold them out and pray for scraps. I'm sure in the second half someone will get a penalty or some shit 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bluewolf 4,610 Posted October 3, 2020 Tons of possession but zero threat from us.... totally lacking any creativity going forward... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure in the second half someone will get a penalty or some shit As you say, for all the possession we have we don't press with it when we need to, we dilly dally on the ball rather than getting forward and end up passing backward or sideways which gives Palace shed loads of time to get back in defensive positions, by the time we do press there are so many bodies in the box we end up being blunted.. Also there was an instance where the ball dropped to Abraham and while he had space he could have taken a shot at goal but instead he took a further two touches trying to set himself up perfectly to shoot and was promptly surrounded and robbed by 3 Palace players..
