Burning Gold 599 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 8 minutes ago, Lucas said: I don't think Christensen is playing? But it was too easy I agree. These two early goals have really allowed the shackles to come off City. They look so confident now. If Chelsea don't get a grip, a third will come soon. 6 minutes ago, Rick said: It was Thiago Silva, shockingly. My bad. Chilwell I was looking at. Obviously worried about Sterling as well but not marking either of them and playing both onside Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lucas 3,828 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 Fair play, Pep's pulled an absolute blinder here. Chelsea are bad but he's got the shape of his team spot on to take advantage of their weaknesses and they look like scoring everytime they go forward. The movement between Sterling, Foden, KDB and Gundogan is sublime. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Subscriber Dan+ 1,919 Posted January 3, 2021 Subscriber Share Posted January 3, 2021 Lampard is totally out of his depth isn't he. Think it's getting more obvious by the game. Preserve your legendary status and go. Man CIty terrific here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burning Gold 599 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 I don't think Lampard can be expected to get it right immediately with the number of new signings Chelsea have made.

Klopp is always mentioned as the ‘give it time’ example but Liverpool were always improving under him. Also, don’t forget, they were always exciting and had real obvious identity. Chelsea are neither of those. The only thing going for Lampard is, who is going to take over? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
carefreeluke 722 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 @Cicero Mate, I know it's awful, Lampard deserves a lot of criticism but I say this every time, what's the point of sacking a manager? You choose a manager in the first place because you trust him when it gets tough. For me you look at seasons as a whole, if we continue like this right until the end of the season, then I'd probably say it's deserved. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Because we are getting progressively worse with each passing game. We are now at a point where there is no fluidity and cohesion in the side with the one dimensional play we continue to see. Our new signings have been mismanaged and the entire team looks devoid of belief. 4 teams are on course to finish by more than 70 points this season, we are currently on course to finish below 66. Last season's placement. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

El Profesor 1,457 Posted January 3, 2021 Share Posted January 3, 2021 This is simply not competitive. Sure, Chelsea badly needs a 6, but the forwards also need to help in the defensive transition, otherwise it´s just too easy for the opponent to reach your area.
