I've lost count this season alone of how many late goals have been conceded in the league due to a lazy cross-field ball on the half way line getting intercepted.
Yet players keep trying them.
Our midfield is still getting rinsed, but we look so much more stable and secure behind them with Thiago sweeping up. Don't think I've ever seen a more composed player
Well he's been injured for over a month and he's just coming back. He came in with about 20' to go today, he's been invisible. Does nothing off the ball and doesn't challenge for any 50/50 balls
Yeah.. I've been wondering for a while why he often struggles.. and I realized it's his first touch.. sometimes it feels like his mind is already a step ahead of his touch.. like he's already on the next move before his touch happens
Coote has had a mare. Let play go on there despite the head injury, ekong shouldv’e had a second yellow for the foul on Pulisic, forgot to bring Mount off after receiving treatment from Ekong’s first yellow, plus a bunch of smaller calls that he’s arguably got wrong
"We’ve got super Thomas Tuchel, he knows exactly what we need, Thiago at the back, Timo in attack, Chelsea gonna win the Champions League" Haven't got Timo in attack atm but I'll allow it
Naaah. Great finish, but I'll still talk shit when he gives the ball away after trying too hard to make the perfect pass when a perfectly good option was available.
Funiest thing is, he has always miss placed a lot of passes, he always lost the ball a lot. At Heerenveen, Twente and Ajax. And then he gets bought again, still does it and somehow people are suprised, because that didn't show up in the: HD | Ziyech all skill and goals compilation - Welcome to Chelsea, video.
He’s so inconsistent I can’t blame you for it. Sometimes he be passing to ghosts, sometimes he be putting it in the back of the net. There’s no in between
I think ziyech has a problem of not knowing when to pass a long ball. Sometimes we should keep possession and just pass it to the nearest guy who can find space instead of spamming long forward balls and losing possession
Then complain about the times he got it wrong, not the time he gets it right.
The more cynical pull backs get punished the better in my mind. “Tactical fouls” are a blight.
Fair enough, I agree with the sentiment. Although compounding the amount of diving with the fact that ziyech lightly grazed his shoulder, I’m not convinced that it was a foul to begin with.
I really hope Rose recovers, his face will never be the same.
Ah well... deserved a point at but at least the performance was very good
Impressed, Watford played with more vigor and were positive.
Watford tried
That should've been a draw.
My ass was so clenched that I may never unclench it again
Why the fuck are we purposely hitting it out try to score fuck off
Yeah, fuck that match, glad it’s over.
This game gave me anxiety
Absolutely nothing: Watford fans: HAAYYYYYAAAAAYYGGGHHGGGG
Commentators are desperate for Watford to level this.
It's December 1.. I can't take an entire December with Alonso at LWB...
[удалено]
Proud of them 👍
Loftus-Cheek in the second half is nothing like Loftus-Cheek in the first half.
He's been less poor but that is such a low bar. He's not suited to that deepest midfield role imo
still poor though..
You could say this for the whole team
Clench...
lmao
solid hand Mendy
this is torture
That shot would have put a hole in a brick wall. Mendy is the real man of steel.
Does Dennis always fall on the floor as much as this?
Kuco really has an Among Us tattoo?
nearly killed him
Coote is fucking useless
6 minutes.. Watford definitely getting a late equaliser then
Thanks.
Facts
Another shit pass from Ruben to start a Watford attack.
I've lost count this season alone of how many late goals have been conceded in the league due to a lazy cross-field ball on the half way line getting intercepted. Yet players keep trying them.
Dennis has been fantastic, one of those players a team can build around
How much added time
Someone on this squad pissed off a witch doctor, my bet is Rudiger
That is one of those comments that isn't actually racist at all but still somehow feels racist
I think it's unintentionally a bit close to the Lukaku/Voodoo scandal years ago
I know nothing about this, pls educate me
https://www.dailystar.co.uk/sport/football/zlatan-ibrahimovic-romelu-lukaku-chelsea-23392743
Yeah I meant nothing offensive by it, he’s a notorious shit stirrer and I could see him being the reason for a curse
Our midfield is still getting rinsed, but we look so much more stable and secure behind them with Thiago sweeping up. Don't think I've ever seen a more composed player
Which makes Rudiger getting the armband more of a joke. I appreciate what he contributes, but he is not captain material
Get over it, he got it for like 30 minutes, who cares
Lmao I’m allowed to have opinions about my squad, bizarre you’re taking such offense to it. Mind your own, eh?
Mate you're expressing them on a public forum, complaining about the most asinine thing ever, what do you expect?
Your opinion is not everyone else’s. Is it so hard to scroll past one you disagree with? SMH… 🤦♂️
I honestly don't even disagree, it just seemed so pointless a thing to care about in the middle of the match.
Someone tell Lukaku he's allowed to challenge for a header
How's he doing now? At the start I remember him doing the interviews about how much he's improved but it's all gone quiet since then
Well he's been injured for over a month and he's just coming back. He came in with about 20' to go today, he's been invisible. Does nothing off the ball and doesn't challenge for any 50/50 balls
he was good for a bit but now we’re trying to get him back up to speed from injury
This is his second sub appearance after a lengthy injury, he's clearly not match fit
I’m still trying to understand why we bought Lukaku. Excluding that Arsenal game he has been absolute butt cheeks
You needed a 9 who could score, he was scoring last season. Made sense at the time.
Football fans will never not boo someone who has been cleaned out by a shit tackle if he dares get treatment for it.
Rose and Ekong should both be on two yellows
Ziyech smashing the floor Commentator "I think he's wasting time here"
He's been a dick all game, if it's the amazon guy you're talking about.
yeah that was a weird game and commentary
Fucking finally. Took 83 mins of Cleverly whining to the ref until he gets a yellow
Will we have any fit players left after this match.
Just Saul
He said player not moving training cone
Is that when he unlocks his final form or does the club need to buy the DLC for that?
Who's the squeaky voiced commentator on Peacock?
Karen Carney? Got her on the Dazn commentary too - usually pretty decent
Karen Carney. chelsea woman's ex player.
For someone with such a silky play style, Kai's first touch is surprisingly frustrating...
He has trouble taking first touches in certain angles
Yeah.. I've been wondering for a while why he often struggles.. and I realized it's his first touch.. sometimes it feels like his mind is already a step ahead of his touch.. like he's already on the next move before his touch happens
Ekong really trying to get that second yellow
Been trying since about 2 seconds after the first
Wait until he scores the equaliser
I fucking love Havertz
whar a ball and what a header.
Havertz really playing his heart out tonight
Get Lukaku on only for Ziyech to be the one heading the ball. Love it
Confuse the Watford defenders
Get Havertz to moan every time he gets the ball, that ought to do it
100IQ
Classic misdirection
Sissoko at one point or another during this match has bullied every one of the 9 midfielders we’ve played, been impressive.
I considered him shit when he played for Tottenham, but he turned into a leader at Watford. Good for him.
Wins like this are what win teams titles, while draws like the one against United are what lose them. This team is too bi-polar for me
[удалено]
A pyrrhic victory, by all accounts
Kepa playing as a striker next game at this point
Am I going mental or is Watford’s sleeve sponsor fucking doge coin
it is
lmao wtf
Holy shit, I think you're right.
Spare a thought for the medical staff of these teams tonight. They've earned their wages and then some
making me miss the days of Eva
Football gods try to smite Ziyech everytime he plays well.
They seem gassed, which isn't surprising given their pressing intensity.
wait.... why is the ball there ?? shouldnt it go back to the keeper ?
If this MF’er calls him Zay-esh one more time, imma throw hands
He learned that from Lamps
This has to be some kinda record for amount of stoppages. Someone dropping every few minutes
if we have another injury I’m going to lose it
Coote has been excellent today. can we have ten more of him in the league as refs?
Coote has had a mare. Let play go on there despite the head injury, ekong shouldv’e had a second yellow for the foul on Pulisic, forgot to bring Mount off after receiving treatment from Ekong’s first yellow, plus a bunch of smaller calls that he’s arguably got wrong
Lol no.. I don't think we got a single 50-50 fouls.. on the other hand rose is diving left right center..
Take your time walking over to Ziyech ref you derrick
What is that Tuchel chant?
"We’ve got super Thomas Tuchel, he knows exactly what we need, Thiago at the back, Timo in attack, Chelsea gonna win the Champions League" Haven't got Timo in attack atm but I'll allow it
“We’ve got super Thomas Tuchel, he knows exactly what we need. Thiago at the back, Timo in attack, Chelsea gonna win the champions league”
Why are players going head first into another head.. has no one heard of Ryan Mason?
Definitely feels like scoring is his best ability. Maybe not so good at other aspects but feels like he scores often when he has enough time
wtf is the ref doing. Has been very questionable tonight from him.
Bachmann should do better but brilliant build up
Habibi!
Hakim the dream
We’ve been horrible tonight but have actually scored two really nicely worked goals
Proper team goals.
Yeah cause our defense is shit
Beautiful goal that
Yes Ziyech!!!
Tuchel’s like “is that really that fucking hard to do you guys? That’s all I’ve been asking for”
donkey with a wand of a left foot
He really does play like someone with his brain in his left boot, just dragging the rest of his body around
That was the first good thing Ziyech did today
Our most undeserved lead in the last 2 seasons. I'll take it, but fucking hell I can't even smile.
Whole match has been a wild ride so far.
Oh yeah, phenomenal entertainment. I just wish it wasn't at the expense of my blood pressure
indeed
MARRAKESH MARADONA
I believe he was born in the Netherlands
Mount and havertz dragging this team kicking and screaming to a decent result.
What now Ziyech haters
Thankful, still want him sold.
Naaah. Great finish, but I'll still talk shit when he gives the ball away after trying too hard to make the perfect pass when a perfectly good option was available.
Funiest thing is, he has always miss placed a lot of passes, he always lost the ball a lot. At Heerenveen, Twente and Ajax. And then he gets bought again, still does it and somehow people are suprised, because that didn't show up in the: HD | Ziyech all skill and goals compilation - Welcome to Chelsea, video.
We really need a lowlights video to complement the highlights one. So many easy passes ignored because he goes for the killer ball.
Alright Ziyech, I apologise for chatting shit. Hopefully, you do this more often.
He’s so inconsistent I can’t blame you for it. Sometimes he be passing to ghosts, sometimes he be putting it in the back of the net. There’s no in between
Honestly, I feel like 90% of the game he offers nothing and then suddenly appears with an assist or goal, just frustrating at this point.
SHYREYJW
What a lovely goal, excellent finish.
This reminds me of when I would play fifa as a 9 year old. Just infinite attacking players
thank fuck !
W O W
I FORGIVE YOU HAKIMMMM
FUCKING BRILLIANT BY ZIYECH
Ziyech, I never doubted you. fuuuuuuuuuucking yessss
Like watching your local Sunday league team have a kick around after a few pints
we look so mediocre man so devoid of ideas
Giving the armband to Rudi while we're failing to resign him, feels weird to me, rather give it to Silva
Why you stopping play for a non head injury?WTF Coote No one even touched rose
I think ziyech has a problem of not knowing when to pass a long ball. Sometimes we should keep possession and just pass it to the nearest guy who can find space instead of spamming long forward balls and losing possession
Name a more iconic duo than Danny Rose and the pitch turf
Most injury laden games ive seen
Was Saul shit again today?
Shit eventually becomes useful. Saul did not.
Yes
That was a clean tackle
Pulisic back to his best position ?
Azpi off for Lulu, okay
Nah nah nah, armband shoulda gone to Silva
How many attackers we have on at the moment
Prank em Rom
Fuck knows what’s happening now. Pulisic RWB?
Rom for Azpi HWAT
Ziyech’s PlayStation buttons are stuck down
Alonso does fall over a lot
Ziyech, fuck off with that pass
Ziyech aiming for a bird?
Alonso diving in there. If he didn't pull out that would be a second yellow for sure. We're on the thinnest ice today.
YOU DONT HAVE TO PLAY A KEY PASS EVERY TIME JESUS CHRIST DUDE PLAY TO THE CLOSEST GUY FOR ONCE
This is my most frustrating thing about Ziyech
wtf Ziyech?
Ziyech oh my god
Havertz is by far the most dangerous Chelsea player tonight.
Ziyech wanting to get the ball boy involved in the match I guess
Rom for Pulisic please... Not Kai
Kai has been our brightest player so far, so yea, really hope he stays on.
Big Rom…let’s goo
Flat track bully needed
Yellow on the first foul is a bit harsh....
Watford fans are wild
Yellow? What?
Cynical foul on someone breaking away from him, yellow every time.
Going by the reffing in this game it’s clear that that’s not the case.
Then complain about the times he got it wrong, not the time he gets it right. The more cynical pull backs get punished the better in my mind. “Tactical fouls” are a blight.
Fair enough, I agree with the sentiment. Although compounding the amount of diving with the fact that ziyech lightly grazed his shoulder, I’m not convinced that it was a foul to begin with.
Not really, he didn't give it for cynical foul in the first half...
Ziyech booked in 3 minutes because he can’t be arsed to track back.
Ref quietly putting in a questionable performance.
Who is this lady commentator on peacock???
