I thought Maupay did well for that goal tbf. Sanchez had him pace wise but released it just in time.

 

Sanchez actually tackles the ball to Mbuemo.

 

Maupay did everything possible to fluff the chance.

Extremely rare to see a keeper who can sprint. Sanchez like the anti-Chris Kirkland there.

I thought the keeper actually got the touch that went to Mbuemo :lol:

Even that would be a lot of evolution for them. All of their semi successful managers have been super ‘pragmatic’ and a bit old school in approach. Holloway, Pulis, Pardew, Vieira, Hodgson.  Potter’s style of play would be very different for the club and its fans to handle if it isn’t successful from the jump.  They can be low scoring without the aimless passing in the back line.  

 

Part of the problem for me is how pragmatic they are for the quality of players they have. They don't even really setup to counter teams properly.

 

Even someone like O'Neill would have been a good pickup after Bournemouth let him go.

If you didn't follow transfer news you'd never suspect Chelsea spent hundreds of billions.


I skim read some piece the other day about when Abramovich first came in. Those transfers adjusted for inflation and today’s market are eye watering.
 

They’ve been spending this kind of dough pretty much every summer since he took over. Now it’s even worse and it’s seemingly at random.

Jackson is so bad :lol:

 

He really isn't, but should be more of a 2nd choice player as he still needs bringing along.

 

Only started playing regularly 2nd half of last season at Villarreal, and was more of a winger originally, before getting some games upfront later on.

 

Only just turned 22 this last summer too.
