    Pretty odd for Tuchel to drop Werner for today's game and bring in Ziyech who's hardly played

    Nearly for Chelsea, that's how to play the Manc, switches, that's how Leipzig absolutely ripped them

    You need to go through the middle against the "filth"

    Cack game this, Chelsea started really well and then seemed to lose the plot after the VAR, wouldn't be surprised to see Ziyech hooked at HT for Werner by Tuchel, he's been poor and not having any pace in behind has allowed the filthy to press them a lot higher than I've ever seen them press

    No you don't, go watch the highlights of their game they got drilled by Leipzig, they are so eager to try and press the ball and not especially well organised at it that they get too many players into areas on one side of the pitch leaving acres of space on the other, especially for late runners from full back, they do it all the time, they've done it several times in this game already

    When they get done in the middle it's usually when they've overcomitted to pressing on one side and when a players released by a switch, they get all over the place trying to get to the other side and it goes back central to play through one of the players from the overload on the opposite flank making an outside in run, so that comes from switches also

    That chance for Ziyech, see where James was Justme? How narrow they were trying to press the ball

    And again only a minute later with the execution of the switch poor, James in 10-15 yards of space

    Switch to James, poor cross, in acres again though, do you see it yet?

    United really are muck. They’ll still get one chance through a free or a bit of genius from fernandes which will be the only thing he does in the game but they are papering over a lot of cracks being so high up the league.
