Still can't defend for toffee though

So they can defend like the Toffees then

 

[scarps]

Takes so long on var. Thought they were doing semi automated this season. Or is that too difficult for the clowns to use.

 

[Basill]

And he's off, first goal, makes it look easy

They're still testing it. All the PGMOL will commit to is it being ready before the end of the season.

Chelsea's midfield isn't great is it. Need to spend at least 200 million more

Enzo is proper ****. Doesn't matter how good at passing you are if you can't do the rest of the job

In other words, trying to find the on button.

Who designed Chelsea's shirt? It looks like it's modelled on pigeon poo

 

[Reuben klang]

They didn't win a single game against the top 4 last season according to Sky just now. Wouldn't call that really well.

Done well, the wrong phrase, played well is probably the better wording!

They drew both games with City. 4-4 in one game iirc

new midfield coming on 2nd half

I think Lavia's been excellent, their best player so far.

Enzo is absolutely awful. That touch in the box like he's made of bricks, pinging it at Jackson's chest from 5 feet away, and playing passes to nobody.

Surely bring on Neto and move Nkunku central

I don't think any of those midfield 3 are particularly good.

 

[Reuben klang]

Bloody hell just put the flag up. Stupid. Absolutely stupid.

 

[scarps]

I give up with these officials, two hours later and the flag goes up. Jackson had already mess up so flag should go up then, not after someone else has done 8 step overs and crossed it 15 minutes later.

 

[eurokage]

Looks like the officiating and VAR speed will be worse than last season!

 

[scarps]

Doku is extremely overrated in my eyes. Zero end product, just step overs and.............

Gervinho 2.0.

Impressed by Savinho so far though

Yeah Doku did nothing that side and Savinho skins his man 4 / 5 times already.

 

[eurokage]

Pep probably thought Saka 2.0, but once Cucurella put him in his pocket he's back on the left

 

[CliffyG]

Jackson could have a goal there if he had a brain cell.
