Chelsea 2019-2020: Puli My Finger

[MoJames 8244]

Oh damn Guehi and Gilmour starting.

[Longhornfan1024 1707]

Why the fuck are we starting Jorgi and Kova?  EFL Cup is pointless and we need their legs to be fresh.  Just throw in some more U23s and let the chips fall as they will.

[MoJames 8244]

Yay, no one got injured.

[TexArcher 37771]

Well that's a nice goal.

[MoJames 8244]

Fuck yes Jorg

[MoJames 8244]

Oh Mount so close. Fu Foster.

[TexArcher 37771]

Could so easily be 3-0 right now.

[MoJames 8244]

Boom, Puli!!

[TexArcher 37771]

Ummmm...

If it's not a penalty, it's got to be a simulation yellow, doesn't it?

[TexArcher 37771]

Jesus Christ, that's one of the softest pens I've ever seen.  Good god, man.

[MoJames 8244]

Shouldve been 4-0, needed a save at the end to win 2-1.

[ztejas 43414]

Some Jorg stats 

[APMP 688]

The scouting report on Jorg was that he was always going to be a league leader in passes type, especially in Sarri's system. The defensive work implied by those stats has been a pleasant surprise.

[MoJames 8244]

Kante is on the team sheet today.

[APMP 688]

This is some crazy start.

Pulisic is, once again, everything.

[MoJames 8244]

Just checked score, looks like craziness is going on. We have 2 own goals and our only goal is a PK.

[TexArcher 37771]

What the actual fuck is happening right now at SB??

[Longhornfan1024 1707]

Kepa's own goal was . . . unfortunate.  

[TexArcher 37771]

Tammy got free on a break and was robbed by the keeper.

Ajax have hardly touched the ball in the first 8 minutes of the second half.

[TexArcher 37771]

And Ajax hits on the counter.

Guess I'll do some work instead.

[RichUT 1832]

Looks like we came crashing back to earth today. This fucking sucks.

[TexArcher 37771]

And now Mason Mount hobbles off.  Fuck this game.

Haha, guess I'll continue focusing on work.

[TexArcher 37771]

Holy shit.  Ajax just got two red cards and Chelsea have a penalty?!

[TexArcher 37771]

And that penalty is awfully soft, imo.

[TexArcher 37771]

Penalty converted.  Chelsea 3-4 and up two men for 20 minutes plus likely a boatload of stoppage time!

[TexArcher 37771]

Glad I didn't pull the laptop out, lmao.

[TexArcher 37771]

LEVEL!!!

[TexArcher 37771]

5-4 Blues!!!

[TexArcher 37771]

4 goals in 14 minutes.

Fucking amazing.

And now they're waving it off for handball?

Christ, this game is madness.

Gawd just loaded it up to see the whistle get blown. Hoping for some highlights.

Boatload of stoppage time?  Ha.  Chelsea will get four three minutes and fifty six seconds and like it.  Eight goals, two penalties, two red cards, two VAR reviews, and an injury be damned.  

[MoJames 8244]

Haha just saw Zouma's run.

Great synopsis of the game here (with highlights): https://www.sbnation.com/soccer/2019/11/6/20951688/chelsea-ajax-2019-uefa-champions-league-highlights.

[MoJames 8244]

Nice

 

[Longhornfan1024 1707]

I just noticed Leicester plays Arsenal tomorrow and Pool plays City on Sunday.  If we win against CP, Arsenal can manage a draw with LC, and Pool beats City in Anfield, we would be in second.  

[APMP 688]

Puli is on fire

[Horny Bull 2759]

More goals for Tammy and Pulisic.

[ztejas 43414]

Good looks on the goals scored leaderboard

[G650 14245]

I only got to watch the first half, but honestly this game should have been like 4 to zilch.

[ztejas 43414]

 

[ChickenSandwich 9829]

Going to need a miracle here

[Stringer 1438]

That VAR No Goal was good for Chelsea, but they need to stop with that shit.  That is so minuscule.  

[G650 14245]

Overall fun match to watch at least

[MoJames 8244]

Sounds like without Tammy we are toothless. Didnt watch yet.

Giroud and Pedro were useless for most of the game, especially Giroud.  Game could have easily been 4-3 Chelsea of Giroud, Zouma, and Puli finished their opportunities and Kepa didn't have himself a game.  

[Captain Ron 12872]

Not sure if you boys saw this pop up this morning about CP, solid read.

[MoJames 8244]

Glad to have Tammy back.

[MoJames 8244]

Grealish with the nice shove on Kovacic out of bounds and then another player shoving Dave. Getting chippy out there.
