My Blood Is Blue Posted February 3, 2023 Author Share Posted February 3, 2023 Disjointed, understandably, but need to be so much better in the final third. Havertz and Mount both poor today. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Box of Tricks Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 We're at the awkward point of a transition. Hopefully things will become a bit more cohesive over the next few games. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SideshowLuiz Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) We had chances - 2 from Havertz in the first half and Fofana in the 2nd, just couldn't convert. New players need time to bed in, along with James and Chilwell coming back from injuries. Slightly disappointed with the draw (some false hope of everything magically clicking from the new signings), but the new guys look encouraging. Disappointed with Mount, Cucurella and Ziyech (less so) today. Edited February 3, 2023 by SideshowLuiz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ROTG Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 (edited) absolute toilet. 12 days of coaching to produce that performance. Potter and Reid are clueless and out of their comfort zone. Edited February 3, 2023 by ROTG Got up at 1am to watch that toilet. Now have 1 hour sleep before I have to preach to the congregation. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thiago97 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 The positives are we look much better defensively. Three clean sheets in a row and much of that down to impact of Badiashille. He looks composed, quick, athletic and strengthens us aerially . Early days , but he already looks an upgrade in many departments to koulibaly. We still just cannot create many chances. Fulham were excellent to be fair, but we should still be working Leno more. I like the look of Madueke. Plays with character and I was pleasantly surprised by his size. He looked a powerful wide man. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
martin1905 Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Absolutely rubbish. Nothing do with new players either, this is a recurring theme under Potter. Completely clueless at literally everything. No way in a million years Potter is here next season. I would bet my house on it. Badiashile looks like a serious player though, reminds me of a young Van Dijk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

boratsbrother Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 I thought there were signs of better things to come after the Liverpool game, but not after tonight. No matter who we play, new or old, we still have so many players who look nowhere near the level we need to get back being a title chasing team. After all the hype, another hugely dissappointing performance.🙁 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RDCW Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Disappointing result. Not much attacking fluidity, but that will come. Good debut from Enzo and outstanding from Silva and Badiashile. Had Tete been playing for us he would have been sent off rather than given MOM. Noni showed promise, but is a bit raw, as is Fofana. Mount and Gallagher provided the necessary dynamism in midfield, but we still appear to be under-coached in incisive attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
My Blood Is Blue Posted February 3, 2023 Author Share Posted February 3, 2023 I'll take a few positives from that. Badiashile brilliant. Madueke looked really lively and Fofana worked hard when he came on. Enzo gives so much more in the middle which we have needed. Gave the ball away a couple of times but only because he was trying to thread a pass which I'm fine with. Mudryk not fit but will get there. Chilwell and James back and will be fully fit and flying again soon. James definitely wasn’t fully fit tonight. Still need to be more creative but the new wingers are completely different to the ones we have had for the last few years so when they are sharp we will be flying.

Badiashile looks like a serious player though, reminds me of a young Van Dijk. Commentator said Potter has not beaten a team above him all season. Says it all really. I used to call Sarri a buffoon. That mantle now goes to Potter and Reid. I am no fan of silva but the passion he shows on the sidelines gets transmitted to his players on the pitch. Unlike our lethargic duo of Potter and Reid.

RDCW Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 Cucurella was generally fine, but not confident enough in attack. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mark Kelly Posted February 3, 2023 Share Posted February 3, 2023 We may never achieve anything under Potter as Martin thinks but we will absolutely positively definitely not push on playing the cadaver that is Havertz as a centre forward , DD Fofana is already better than him after twenty minutes of first team football for us . Every time he got the ball in the first half he was offside even two seconds after kick off. He is an absolute whopper of a player almost as useless as Lukaku . I'd swap him for a bag of eighty year old balls tomorrow. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs to do a bit more on the ball but that should come with time. However, he already looks significantly better than KK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
