Kai was brought in to replace a significant member of our go to starting line up last seaon. He wasnt brought in to be a rotational piece and if thats all he becomes thats a failure in my eyes for teta. We should have bought a guarenteed starter to hit the ground running and make the transistion seamless. Now im not even sure what our best midfield 3 is. Ridiculously frustrating.
Please tell me there is zero chance we play Havertz against newcastle? Please.
He can’t handle the physicaility they will impose - just no aggression in the final third either. Just so passive and at this point it is just taking the piss
I like to think I’m a very patient and understanding fan for the most part but seeing the video of that Partey shot vs Southampton always triggers something dark in me.
Anyone know which channels to watch it?
How loud was the boos for Rice last night from the West Ham fans? Fair enough for making their opinions clear this early on.
I wonder if it was Man City, im sure the West Ham fans would be doing ole’s on every Rice touch.
Trivia question:
Since March 5, 2023, who has more wins at Stamford Bridge?
Edit: Premier League wins
- Chelsea?
- Brentford?
Who has more wins at Stamford bridge?
- Enzo Fernandez
- Nuno Tavares
Let’s talk about West Ham fans for a minute. Booing the captain who delivered the first European trophy in 50+ years while conducting himself with class?
“Should have left for a bigger club”. Do they really believe they’re our rivals? Deluded orcs.
It really is just another classic “Lets hate Arsenal” vibe. Bin them lot.
Seen a guy on twitter wish he got an ACL because he sang north london forever
Classic orcish behavior. Somethings just never change.
We did boo our past captains. Cesc was with us for 8 years and carried up for many years. Match going fans are just like that.
man went to chelsea. That is a direct rival. West ham and Arsenal are tiers apart
For the third goal, you can see the other defensive part of the game Havertz needs to work on - zero awareness to pick up Bowen who was unmarked at the edge of the box.
Still, their third goal feels similar to the second goal we conceded Lens. Then it was Rice allowing space to open up between him and our defenders allowing the Lens attacker to just slow down to make room to receive the ball.
Newcastle away is must win and this loss makes Liverpool at anfield also must win they’ll be no midweek game, looking at it glass half full…
Finally just seen the first half but that was a pretty good performance by our second team. Can’t really blame them too much for the lack of final ball since even our best players are having trouble with that. For all the complaining about the midfield, West Ham didn’t threaten us too much. On the other hand, it’s worrying how much luck teams are having in scoring against us.
Any chance John Jules comes good? I only remembered we still have him cuz of a new fifa career mode save lol. I know this Edwards guy in our academy is supposed to be phenomenal. I’m just trying to figure out if maybe Arteta moved on from Balogun because we have some riches coming in at CF.
Slim to none, injuries have wrecked him.
The academy had nothing to do with why we sold Balogun. Sometimes you have to sell players, can’t keep them all
Ramsdale is gonna have a good game today and until the Newcaslte game twitter and reddit is gonna be filled with a lot of Raya v Ramsdale debates.
God I miss Jurrien. He was absolutely incredible for the first few matches. :(
Hayzoos not back til December 😞
At least there is an international break in there
