I was reading that Chilwell is back on light training in the gym and is targeting mid January return. That is the best news i have heard recently. We missed him more than any other player. Since we lost him, we haven’t kept a clean sheet. Also, i’m reading Kante and Chalobah are back. That will ease the load from Jorginho though. We will be stronger once again. But my only worry is Lukaku not firing all cylinders.

Chelsea cannot get PSG, instead, Chelsea could get drawn against Bayern or Real Madrid.

I would take whoever we get drawn, if you want to win, you need to beat the best teams in the tournament. but this shows the level of influence that United has over Uefa.

I think we are forgetting that we have 2-3 key players missing. Kante and Kovacic are both anupgrade to Loftus Cheek. Chilwell is an upgrade to Alonso. And we have a host of players who are out of form. Our dip in form is understandable. But am glad we have won. If we can win games, then the confidence will return. The only worry is have that we are not creating enough chances for Lukaku.

The reason as to why our dedense is struggling is because they are getting zero protection from our midfield. Both Loftus Cheek and Jorginho are not as good defensively as Kante and Kovacic. I have also observed when Werner plays alongside Lukaku, he performs better. It’s high time that Pulisic also starts games. A front trio of Pulisic, Mount and Lukaku will be very good offensively.

Nine,

I’m glad that Azpi is back to the RCB role. Christensen has been struggling in that role in our last premeier league game. Azpi will support both James and Silva. Our best man for that role is Chalobah, since his injury we have suffered defensively.

Now I’m disappointed with how we played tonight defensively, but i’m pleased that our two strikers have found the net. That will be good news for me, regardless of where we finish, if we want to win the biggest prize in Europe, we have to face the best. Now we can’t face, Liverpool, City, United, PSG and Juventus. That is 90% of the tough teams, we only have Bayern Munich and Real Madrid to worry. And who knows who may get. personally, I’m most delighted that Lukaku has taken the monkey off his back, who knows if he may go on a scoring spree now. and the way Timo Werner finished his second goal has also excited me. i hope this momentum continues.

Not sure which formation we are playing tonight, 4-3-3? Or 3-4-2-1 and Saul as a LWB? If it’s back four, then that is interesting.

Don’t blame Jorginho. Mendy takes responsibility for that stupid mistake. Why contest someone with the ball in your own box? When you have the opportunity to clear.

Nine,

That is good news for us. Lukaku finally needs to show what he is capable of. I would like to see Havertz also start alongside him. With Mount simply because Mount presses. Havertz will feed off from Lukaku scrap balls.

Nine,

I would be surprised to see Tuchel drop Ziyech now that he is playing well and is finally over his injury. He has scored the winner in our last game. I can’t see CHO starting ahead of him. I would opt Azpi over Christensen, simply West Ham will sit back and try to hit us on the break. So Azpi will support the attack and put in crosses from the RCB.

Ed,

I have been reading this piece of a news in the last two weeks, and some papers are even recycling it. And i have to say it has gone under my skin to talk about him turning down Chelsea when they should be reporting what he will likely contribute to United’s season.😊

Lucky,

No Chelsea fan or the club are moaning about Rangnick turning us down. In fact everyone would have chosen this scenario if asked today. So the pro United media is trying the paint Chelsea an an attractive club to the managers. Keep going guys. Chelssea has no time for senstiments. #Tuchel at the wheel.😊😊

Some media outlets are still preaching the narrative that Rangnick turned down the Chelsea job. What significance does that has now? No team would have picked Rangnick over Tuchel if both were available. I doubt if even United would have gone for him if they knew Tuchel was available at the same time. We needed brave men at the helm and we got one there. If you don’t feel you can’t do anything in that time, someone else came and did a great job within that period.

I will be watching tomorrow’s Tuchel press conference with nervousness. Our injury list is evergrowing. Chilwell, Chalobah, Jorginho, James, Kante, Kovacic are all key first team players whom any team would feel their absence. And some pundits were questioning Chelsea’s performance ladt night. And Azpi and Alonso haven’t played a game for weeks and they weren’t match sharp, add that Mount, Pulisic and Lukaku has just returned from injury. But we still managed to remain compatitve until now? I have to say we have one hell of manager. Whether we win or not this season, we are heading in the right direction.

We have had a hard luck recently, we are losing the versitle players like James and Chalobah. I hope Kante will return on Saturday and Jorginho is fine. I would be anxious to know how much Chalobah will be out.

Assuming and Kante, James and Jorginho return, and no fresh injuries are reported, then it will be a toss up between Azpi and Christensen for the right centre back role. And Lukaku to replace Havertz, Ziyech to replace Pulisic as well.

Well, if there is anyone who doubted Jorginho’s importance to tgis Chelsea team, tonight they got the answer. He is the most important player in our system. But there are others who are important to the system. Ben Chilwell is also equally important, since his injury we are missing his output from the left and he was solid defensively.

Sadly Azpi can no longer do the job of a wingback, so we need to find a back up to Reece James.tonight’s game have also shown how important Silva is to our defence, he has been commanding the back line.

Anyway, it was a 3 hard earned points, and i was pleased for Mount and Ziyech, they needed those goals, and i hope their season kicks off from here. I would like to see Lukaku start against West Ham. Hopefully, Jorginho, Reece James and Kante will be available for this injury. The injury to Chalobah has also been a blow as the lad has been playing nice football.

The only one i’m worried about is Saul. I hole he performs well as we may need him from now and then due to the number of injuries we have in midfield.
