Chelsea Going Forward

[Young_blue]

I would take a draw if we are not good enough, because it’s better than a defeat😊. But at this moment, i’m not keen on a draw. Liverpool is one of the best teams in the world and Klopp is one of the greatest managers in the world. So a draw with them is not that bad. But i still would be keen to see Chelsea have the belief that we can win the game and not sit back.

Granted that Liverpool has the fire power and pace upfront, we are also good in that deparment this season. Lukaku and Werner up top would be a nightmare for any defence with pace and power. We also have Ziyech one of the most creative midfielders in the PL. Add that to Mount who is one of the best box to box midfielders at 22. With our strong midfield also great. Alonso and James can match Arnold and Robertson. Liberpool’s wingers are a class above ours, their CBs? VVD is a class above our defenders, but i’m not sure if Matip is anywhere near Rudiger. And you have Azpi? The game is evenly balanced and any team can win. Although Liverpool has a slight advantage by virtue of being the home team, with the crown behind them.

It’s a very tough game for both teams lads. So difficult to call. Big battles all over the place. Fabhino be a big loss for us if absent.

A big concern for me is our high line which Chelsea exploited big time in the 1-0 win at anfield last season. They got in 11 times with balls over the top. It was just to easy.

Chelsea are just so solid all over the pitch. They are just so difficult to score against.

YB, matip is an excellent centre back and very highly rated by Liverpool fans. I’d have him in the top 5 centre backs in the league along with rudiger.

Rudiger was one of Frank’s mistakes. He should always be playing when fit and came back into the team when tuchel arrived. Excellent centre back

Such a tough game. I’d take a draw aswell bigtime

Sean, I wonder if Klopp will play Gomez as opposed to Matip as Gomez has more pace to get back.

Me too Sean let’s all agree on a draw now.😊

I think Werner may well play next week with Lukaku he troubled Liverpool at Anfield last season with his pace running on to balls over the top of the Liverpool defence. Tough game to call.

Sean,

I think Liverpool have the best CB in the world in VVD, the best full backs in Arnold and Robertson, the best wingers in Salah and Mane. But Matip? am not sure. There will be a number of good battles all around the pitch. And i think both managers are tacticly astute. For me this game will be won or lost by tge number of individual errors each team makes. Both teams are balanced. Alonso and James are not that far behind. Jorginho and Kante are two of the best holding midfielders, if somehow Tuchel can find a way to accomodate Werner and Lukaku and overload the midfield, then Chelsea will have a chance. But playing Liverpool when they are on their game is not easy, because you don’t know what you will get. You know what you will get against City and can prepare for, what you can get agsinst United. But with Liverpool, you never know what you will face. But i trust Tuchel, he is one of the best coaches in Europe.

The club ‘s reaction to our performance. Good to see the club backing its player with his choice of words or maybe he picked it up from them. :)))

Analysing #ARSCHE. 🔍

Looking back at a dominant performance yesterday in north London. ⤵️

This has a nil nil draw written all over it. Should be a riveting nil nil though.

Rumours are that Chelsea are looking to make a bid to sign Saul on loan from Athletico Madrid. That is a good option to have, the man has enough experience, won Laliga, played CL finals, scores goals from midfield, and at 26 he is entering his prime. He is the perfect addition to our squad. I hope our club includes an option to buy him with reasonable fee.

Ye lads I think it’s going to be very very tight. I just can’t see us scoring againest Chelsea. They just don’t concede many chances at all

I’d take 0/0 aswell now bigtime

I can’t see this game ending 0-0, the talent at display and the number of attacking players on show will make 0-0 highly unlikely.

It looks like Zouma is going to WHU which looks like meaning Kounde to Chelsea if Chelsea were to sign Niguez on top of that it would make it a near perfect window?

Nine,
Except we have to overcome United who is making a late challenge to steal Saul in front of our noses. but if Chelsea wants him, I trust Tuchel’s influence, and our exciting team who has more Spanish players than United, plus the city of London to sway the deal in our favour. He is an upgrade to Kovacic for me. the only thing that Kovacic doesn’t have in him is goals which Saul will bring. plus he is already a winner which will complement our already squad of winners.

As for Kunde, I don’t think he is a pressing issue at the moment, given the emergence of Trevoh Chalobah. but if the club spots an opportunity for a lower price, then fair play to the club for taking that opportunity. but I can’t see Chelsea paying what Sevilla is demanding now and that is why the club is waiting late in the transfer market to make a take or leave it offer.

It doesn’t quite seem fair! Chelseas next fixtures considering we also played Arsenal.
Liverpool ( away)
Aston villa (home)
Tottenham (away)
Man City (home)

I would rather play these fixtures this early rather than play during the Christmas season. Teams are not sharp now and you need to face them early. That was what helped Liverpool in 2019/20 season. They have played all the key games early, and during the festive seaso were left with favourable fixtures. If we avoid defeat on Saturday, it means 4 out 6 points amd overall 7 out of nine, we are still good. And if we win, it will send a shockwave to our title rivals.

Totally agree young blue mate. I’d much rather get the tougher ganes out of the way. Defo helps with the finish to the season IMO

Nervous/excited about the match but would I take a draw? I’m certainly tempted by the idea but if we want to win the PL, we’ve got to beat the best. It’ll be tough to break Chelsea down and they’ll be one hell of a threat themselves. it’s at Anfield though, so we can’t settle for anything. Were it at Stamford Bridge, I’d be singing a different tune 😉

Whatever happens, I hope it’s a great game.

According to the daily mail reports today, Halaand’s agent Mino Raiola demanded Erling Haaland was paid £820,000 PER WEEK to join Chelsea, with a £34m agent’s fee AND a salary for himself in a £257m package. and that is why Chelsea turned to Lukaku which I think was a great decision. I really don’t think Haaland would fit Chelsea the way Lukaku fits. I have now seen why Chelsea avoids dealing with Mino Raiola, the guy is super greedy.
