Chelsea 2022-2023: America... fuck yeah?

[Horny Bull 2,759]

CP10 gets one!

[TexArcher 37,774]

Nice finish!

Now keep that clean sheet while I get my hate right for ou.

[ztejas 43,419]

5 mins off. Sue me. 

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Good start!

[Longhornfan1024 1,707]

Is this game about the teams or the ref?

[SportBild] The signatures for Christopher Nkunku to Chelsea transfer & a five-year contract should be wrapped up before the World Cup. Gvardiol is to follow. Chelsea are prepared to pay over €100m for Bellingham while Dortmund wants at least €120m.

At this point if he plays it's a bonus. Feel like he should move on and find a less taxing team to play for in his twilight. Maybe cash some MLS checks in a few years. 

[MoJames 8,244]

Bit more disconcerting...

 

[Longhornfan1024 1,707]

Chilwell lucky to be still be on the pitch after that tackle.

Fuck I missed this. He's been our best player this year.

I mean, fuck Ingerland but still. 

[MoJames 8,244]

Broja is fucking fast.

[MoJames 8,244]

Oddest sub I think I've ever seen.

Off - On

Cucurrela - Pulisic

Broja - Sterling

Mount - Chukwuemeka

 

in a 0-0 game away

 

[MoJames 8,244]

Pulisic looking great.

[MoJames 8,244]

Brentford played their asses off and we still should've won. Pulisic definitely changed the narrative in that second half, hope to see more of it. Losing Gallagher early and relying on Kovacic and Jorg to push the narrative lead to very few opportunities and bad transition defense. Would be nice if we started thinking of a replacement for Kante.

Not a fan of going with Cucu at lcb again.

Good save from Kepa.

[TexArcher 37,774]

Jorginho's balls dragging across the pitch.

[Longhornfan1024 1,707]

So smart by Broja to take the foul and ice cold by Jorgi.

Furk...... 

[APMP 688]

Sometimes you concede at the end of the game. Both teams did today. On to the next one. Potter needs do avoid messing up his starting tactics though.

[InkaUtexas 25,915]

MU dominated the mid field. What are we missing? Are we just focused on UEFA?

We're missing Kante, and we will be until February at least.  And we're missing Reece James until after the World Cup at least.

All in all, we held up pretty well under Man U's pressure and Kepa did well.  We just didn't get all the way to the finish line.  But if we keep conceding once every six matches, we're gonna be fine.

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Nice first time strike from Kovacic.

[MoJames 8,244]

Love Kova goals.

[InkaUtexas 25,915]

well shit.....

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Havertz!

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Into the knockout stage.

Hell yeah. Haven't been able to watch much lately. Sounds like the scoreline was kind to Salzburg today from following the live updates. 

[InkaUtexas 25,915]

Fuck yeah! 

 

[Longhornfan1024 1,707]

We're locked into first in our group, which is great because the second place teams are going to have a brutal draw this year.  

[MoJames 8,244]

Flashback wit Hazard Willian and Bats.

 

[MoJames 8,244]

I've certainly been on the side that Mendy was a godsend to save us from Kepa, but he has been absolutely nuts as of late.

Kepa's story is something else. Record transfer fee. So many struggles initially. Refuse to come off for penalties, and lose. Replaced by a guy (Mendy) who has his own incredible story. Fail in cup final after cup final, including letting 11 straight penalties in.

And even after all of that, he stays and somehow did himself out of that hole. And now he's maybe the hottest goalkeeper in Europe. And he's got a shot at making the Spain world cup squad.

Just crazy.

He's our best keeper right now. 

Not that Mendy isn't good. 

[MoJames 8,244]

Guess this formation

 

 

 

 

[TexArcher 37,774]

Welp, fuck that.

[TexArcher 37,774]

Fuck that, too.

[Stringer 1,438]

I don’t think I’ve seen us this outclassed over the first 15 in a long time.

[morehornsepower 887]

not going to get much better chances than that...

[Longhornfan1024 1,707]

I don't have access to the nbc app anymore so I don't get ti watch, but it looks like we only have one defender on the field who isn't old or playing out of position. Is that right? No wonder we're down 2 early.

Yeah, just fuck everything.

[ztejas 43,419]

Glad I haven't been able to watch.

I'd chalk it up to a CL hangover. Potter's doing a good job. Shit happens. On to the next one. 

[MoJames 8,244]

Not sure this one could've started any worse.

[Horny Bull 2,759]

Zakaria gets a goal in his debut!

So nice to see all the smiles around him. He's played well so far.

[MoJames 8,244]

Sounds like we might be out Chillwell for some time again.

 

[crash_davis 23,107]

what a shitshowing. how the fuck is kai still starting?

puli doesn't even sniff the field. he needs to gtfo of there immediately. potter is playing mount, gallagher, sterling to prep them for England in the WC. puli aint starting and may get the occasional 10-20 mins. what a shitty situation.
