Match Thread: Chelsea v Liverpool

[miller0863]

An average Chelsea side missing several key players, no excuses this has been an absolutely pathetic performance from all 10 outfield players

Even though Gakpo poked the ball in from 5 yards he was bloody awful for the rest of the game as was Salah on the other flank and you’ve got Chiesa on the bench getting splinters in his backside.

Bradley and Kerkez, shocking, Konate bloody awful.

Szoboszlai ran about but really lacked any sort of quality. MacAllister .. did he play??

Isak still off the pace.

This is on Slot again.

Gakpo was the best player on the pitch for us.. and he still gets pelters..

He’s so limited it’s not even funny lost the ball about 6 times . Scored a tap in . No one was good today , nobody

[justme]

But I thought Kerkez as the problem.
Everyone kept saying that in the first 45 minutes before he was taken off.

I guess people had forgotted why we had to bring in a new LB.
Robbo duly reminded them all.

Kerkez is a good player. but right now hes a small fish in a big pond.. was different at Bournemouth

[redgold]

We have not been good since the end of April. We all hoped it wasn't Jurgen's team that won it, but Slot's, but I think you can see that that isn't the case and he's out of his depth here.

[justme]

You live and die by your choices in players. who ever thought Wirtz would suit us is beyond me.Its not on him today cause he didn't start..But we need another quick direct midfielder not someone who will hold it.

Slot not trying to win that game with those substitution decisions was criminal in my opinion.

Brought on Jones aka "Mr. Invisible" who did fuck all.....as per usual
And then brings on Endo when the game is begging for an impact sub winner, to try to preserve a point - ...against a side that's missing half their team to injuries with 6 CB's out.


And no surprise that Chelsea who actually did go for it with their substitution decisions were rewarded.

And next up we have Citeh and the Scum.

Oh Joy!!!

I've never been less ethusiastic and optimistic about facing the Manchester teams than I am at the moment.

[jimmyliver]

It honestly looks like we have been sold duds , kerkez looks like a little midget who can’t play , is this the same guy I saw at Bournemouth, wirtz Fuk me , give him time yea but he’s anonymous , compare hi to semwnyo , is that what it takes in the prem

[trueandred]

Slot has been found out; he won the league with Klopp's team. It was an awful performance against a weak Chelsea side. Salah is just gone; we really miss Trent. His passing was the difference last season.

[miller0863]

That was absolutely shocking

[Kev0909]

Why did isak spend more time on the left?? because gakpo is the best?

Where is the coaching?

Where is the tactics?

We had 2 new players start, can't blame it on that like people keep doing so

we have NO IDEA what's the plan??? wheres the good football? just moments of brilliance or crosses....... clueless, utterly clueless.

we got a new set-piece coach to do WORSE!!!!!!!!

Hughes out

We have not been good since the end of April. We all hoped it wasn't Jurgen's team that won it, but Slot's, but I think you can see that that isn't the case and he's out of his depth here.

That kind of hope is called delusion.

[Jenson78]

9 or 10 seniors missing. 5 - then 6 CB’s out injured or suspended…?

Arne - what the fuck are you doing man

For the reasons above, we should of won the game never mind losing it to team full of players who are only at the plastic club for their lovely 8 year contracts.

[justme]

yeah lets not praise Slot for winning the league.. was someone else.. Jesus Christ.. we are only 2 points of the top of the league. with THIRTY ONE games left. we really have become something i hate from other fans and thats ENTITLED.

Changed what wasn't broken and broke it....But to be fair I don't remember us giving the ball away so cheaply in dangerous areas,that's on the players.....Many more performances like the last 3 and he's gonne come under pressure though....

[Crimson Dynasty]

Kerkez is a good player. but right now hes a small fish in a big pond.. was different at Bournemouth

I'm just saying.

He was not on the field when we conceded the winner (which came from the flank with the player who replaced him), and he wasn't to blame for Chelsea's opening goal either.

And yet he's getting 'pelted' all over the shop here (to use your words) like he's to blame.

He didn't have a great game, no, but neither did any of the rest of his 9 outfield teammates ( apart from maybe Virg, who was his usual steady self. But he can't play 10 positions by himself).

People keep exepcting him to be the attacking threat that Robbo was when even Robbo himself is not the attacking threat that Robbo (of old) was.
