I would rather have Xisco, Kuqi, Ameobi, Chopra and the list could probably go on. This guy is so bad I cant imagine anything else than a weird deal ala Nacho with this guy.

I can't believe anyone's brain works this way

Scary stuff.

I dont think he's very good, but I will say I didn't expect him to be as patient with ASM Joelinton and Almiron.

We've been better at attacking set pieces to be fair. I dont think Antia covered himself in glory with that last year.

The club spent 'big money' on those three. He won't be allowed to drop them thank goodness.

He for sure would have been playing Atsu, Gayle and Ritchie as the front three otherwise.

Shelvey looks like a traffic cone out there.

I knew Bruce would get carried away and leave him in against a very athletic team in Bournemouth.

All because he did well against the only man slower than him in the league in Mark Noble.

We look shite, I for one am shocked and surprised.

We're so rubbish man.

We never play any decent football. It just depends on if the other team can be arsed or not.

We'll get a hammering today.

That young James kid has completely locked up Zaha, who's been throwing strops all game as usual.

How much of a legend is Frank Lampard man. Absolutely ridiculous what he's doing.

Chelsea with a fantastic goal. Mr. Abraham again.

By far my favourite team to watch at the minute. They're a lot of fun.

Zaha has been shocking ... again.

Can't believe they beat Man City

Yup, he makes tons of mistakes and really doesn't stand out in any one area.

Arsenal should be playing a midfield 3 of Torreira, Guendouzi and Ceballos. Xhaka shouldn't be featuring at all.

They miss Torreira's commitment and character desperately. No one else int hat whole squad matches his effort and drive. On top of that he actually has quality as he uses the ball well and pops up with key goals too.

This Xhaka fall out could be a blessing for them. Chance to just shunt him out of the team once and for all.

Xhaka?! Why? That would be ridiculous.

Bellamy is an interesting comparison.

Enjoy the good moments when they come. The main reason ASM and Almiron play for us is because they have glaring weaknesses to their game and no better club wanted to take a risk on them. Better clubs from all over Europe will have scouted them out and decided against them. It's not often nowadays that a club unearths a hidden gem, Kante springs to mind.

 

That said, he's pretty much my new favourite player, along with the Longstaffs for obvious nepotic reasons

 

I don't have a favourite player any more, the enthusiasm has been completely drained from me. But if I did, it would certainly be a player Rafa signed, not one Ashley/who knows signed.

So over the top man. My goodness

Where are people getting this no end product/lack of decision making stuff from? He’s played about 4 games and been instrumental. Bit early to make claims of no end product like, sounds like lazy rhetoric to me.

Yup, I concur.

He's already actually put in a few decent balls with no one in position to capitalise.

However, you can see he is at times being a bit selfish as he really wants to score his first goal, which I can't blame him for really. Especially when you see the videos from training of him blasting them in.

You guys are so sweet, thanks.

Getting this guy for what £16 million was tremendous IMO. It's just such a shame we don't have the manager to get the best out of him. Despite that i think he will do well enough to get a lot of attention next summer from better clubs.

When I look at what Fornals at West Ham and even Pepe at Arsenal have done so far. I'm not sure either have shown anywhere near the same threat and ability. Those two cost an absolute ton of money too. Sarr at Watford can't even get a game and he cost loads too.

If this guy was at a club that was anyway half decent at going forward he'd be looking even better. Slot him in the Bournemouth team for example. We are a joke with the ball and it's a wonder he's even looked so dangerous.

Kovacic has been brilliant again - finally seeing the best of him

Think the guy is absolutely brilliant.

Fantastic box to box midfielder. Carries the ball so well and his passing is top notch.

You guys wouldn't feel this way if he was in a better team.

Think he'd be incredibly productive by virtue of having more of the ball higher up the pitch.

Pulisic on a roll now.

Lovely play again. Good goal.

I love this Chelsea team. Great ball. Great goal.

Thanks for letting us know. Glad you could get that off your chest.

I left him out, but Mendy didn't play, so he comes in. Man ... I thought Pep was going to do me dirty. Thank God

Can we please put him on the left? Just to allow him a bit more familiarity?
