This up there with playing Torreira as a #10
My man Xhaka playing the perfect ball for a CF to run onto. This is concerning tbh, if we donāt have our forwards making runs weāre going to be incredibly lethargic.
I think he put Willian there as a false 9 to somehow keep more possession but it was a disaster.
Expected Arteta to make some dumb calls as he is still learning but playing Willian as a false 9 is just next level dumbness. Donāt want to see this again.
wow.
This hipster calls are really getting on my nerves.
Yeah just unnecessary over complication of the game. Iām tired of this weird thing Arteta does where he overloads our left flank too with Tierney, Saka/AMN and Auba all on the left when in possession.
Just play a simple 4-3-3/4-2-3-1 or something and be done with it already.
We sign Tierney because he was brilliant at LB for Celtic not only in the SPFL but the Champions League. Then Arteta just decides to play him at LCB because heās a hipster. Iām tired of this lol.
Lets not forget he loves playing Kolasinac at CB aswell ffs
Ozil level laziness.
I defended this man to all the Chelsea fans I interacted with the past months.
Genuinely canāt stand the sight of him at the moment. Will be a Mkhi next season, we fucked up.
He is not even in his prime, but long over it, and we are doing some good charity here but fucking not willing to pay someoneās salary/bonus who in on the team for several yearsā¦
He had his best season last season.
His best was a few years back when Chelsea was actually winning something.
Also, his best, is not the striker/false 9/central attacking midfield position.
Fuck he has lost some leg speed
Maybe I was right to complain about him all along?
I was happy to politely take the L after Fulham, suspecting that he wouldnāt be matching that level of output consistently and weād have a chance to revisit the discussion in due course lol
Another meh performance for my guy. I think weāve been had by Chelsea. Again.
3 years
He was shite.
Play Pepe ffs Mikel what is your beef with him?
Thought he was good. Ball retention and decision making was much better today.
His pass lead to the penalty too.
He wasnāt perfect but was part of a few nice moves that might have come off on another day
