Look at it and do what? The man is retiring next week.

Gerrard should retire from being a salty bitch in every post game interview

Bloke is basically too much of a fat prick to ever be in the right position to see things properly, so ultimately he just guesses.

Tuchel is playing a really strong team today. I thought he would rotate a lot more ahead of the Cup final. I guess he is more worried about being drawn into the top four battle than I imagined.

Look at his bench and people genuinely act like Chelsea don’t have a deep squad. If they can either find a system for Lukaku or sign a good striker and replace Rudiger there’s a very competitive team there

That’s 4 changes from the weekend to be fair. Can’t rotate everyone when you’re also trying to maintain your position in the league.

This is the reason Chelsea never really fall out of favour for long, their squad has always been as big as their blood money runs deep.

Though when you look at what they spent and who they’ve spent it on its actually abysmal that they aren’t going toe to toe domestically every season with pool and City

I also think they can’t afford to have another shitty performance going into the cup final.

Momentum for them is in the toilet as is and that may play a huge factor, better to whoop Leeds and back to winning ways so they don’t roll to the final with their heads on the floor

@SRCJJ: they have hella depth problem is barely any of them are consistent

This shouldnt be too taxing :grin:

I wonder if next season Tuchel will revert to a back four. Not recouping any money for the likes of Rudiger sucks but he isn’t that good lol. Might not need to implement this DEAD system with better defenders potentially.

I reckon he’ll smash it at Real Madrid though where his team will play on the front foot

He’s good if you play a high line because of his physical profile but defending deep i think his actual defensive ability is a little exposed

It’s a bit like boom or bust for him

Either he flops or he’s a smash hit lol

It’s more deep than being scared about Top 4.
They can’t go into the final with their confidence as low as it is now.

Times like this you probably want a a convincing victory to get some belief back in the team.

Chelsea lead

So easy. Leeds are garbage water.

Lol, Leeds are going down.

Mount is such a tidy player. Him and Rice are going to lead England to glory.

It was nice having them back for a season. Won’t miss them though.

This Leed team is real bad, just look at the back line ffs
