While I have been impressed with Christensen performance so far, I don't think he's a starter for us. We still have Jules Kounde, Araújo, Pique and Eric García.

So provided there's no major injuries in that position, we're well covered even if Christensen is sick.

Danny Murphy: "The manner of Chelsea’s win against Leicester with 10 men suggested to me this is a group of players very much on board with its manager Thomas Tuchel. I actually think they are going to be closer to Manchester City and Liverpool this season, not further away."
with the way arsenal played Leicester and having been playing so far this season, arsenal have more of a chance than Chelsea have shown so far

This is cap. Tuchel was 3rd in January when he was fired. Pochettino finished 2nd by reducing the deficit between 1 and 2 when he finished 2nd. He inherited Tuchel's team. He also lost to City in a SF of the UCL.

He got to a UCL final, finished 2nd and got to a Carabao cup final all with Tottenham losing to better teams.

He is better with youth and burgeoning players and has better attacking tactics in his bag than Tuchel will ever have. Tuchel is a reactive coach. Very good at countering what other managers plan to do but devising attacking play from scratch? lol
Nothing else.

Thomas Tuchel rejected the chance to sign Cristiano Ronaldo after speaking with his former Man United boss Ralf Rangnick. {The Times via Dailymail}

Yes.
And it was working. Leicester couldn't get out of their half because of the way Gallagher and Mount were pressing.

Unfortunately, we had to switch gameplan after the red.

I don't think pulisic can be worse than mount on that right

A midfield of mount ,kova and jorgs would also be nice

Even though tuchel is not making us happy. He still has superior tactics compared to pochettino. Look at the way psg are playing now and compare them to how they were average under pochettino. He did not win one title at totenham. He even plays more haram football than tuchel. He is meant for mid table teams like dead manyoo not us.

Winning Trophy isn't the same as having Tactics. Save me stress of typing plenty words jare. All I will keep saying is that he has superior tactics than Thomas Tuchel. Our Coach rode on the back of being an underdog to do well with us in his first season, now that we now seen as favourites we can see how clueless he has been.

Sergio Fraudsquets. The Catalan Olofinjana when he doesn't have Xaviesta as backup. These are the kin cricket scoreline his teams concede

Imagine mentioning that joker in the conversation of elite DMs just because he was born smack dab in the prime of the best midfielders arguably in football history.

Xavi I know.
Iniesta I know.
Who the hell is Busquets??

Couldn't watch the game yesterday. Just watching the full game and damn, sometimes you have to take the reactions in here with a pinch of salt.

15 mins and we've been absolutely top class. I mean everyone.

I am surprised how far back VAR had to come to override the penalty. Wasn't that the same thing we were asking for against Spurs (Havertz incident) and they said it was too far back?

How many points were lille using to lead psg when tuchel was sacked? Was it 10 or 15? Did he not lose the league on the last game day to lille? Pochettino laboured to beat bayern without lewadoski over two legs using away goals. They went to semifinals and didn't even give apari much problems with his quality team. But tuchel shut down apari with one of the weakest teams in the competition. The next season was even worse with him bottling 2-0 to real Madrid that looked finished. Tuchel almost came back from 3-1 down to beat them if not for that modric genuis. Pochettino that parks the bus plenty times against big teams is the one with better attacking tactics and he could not win one cup with it before psg. grin.

Football is not 1+1=2.

The same Pochettino who couldn't pep Guardiola with PSG beat pep Guardiola with Tottenham.........how about that?

Some viewers no dey calm down. I remember telling Donstan after the first half that i expected Sterling to deliver in the 2nd and he did.

Impressive performance , but Vardy also helped out with his wastefulness. cool

What is the essence of having tactics if it's not to compete and win trophies? We know tuchel has been clueless severally after winning the champions league as an underdog but pochettino has failed as both an underdog and overdog if there is something called that. Pochettino was fighting leceister for premier league in 2016 and bottled it. He did well to go to champions league final and didn't really do well to equalize. I'm sure if salah didn't score that early pk Klopp will have destroyed him. The next year he turned totenham to a midtable team before he was sacked. We should get somebody better to replace tuchel not pochettino with his so called superior tactics.

Walahi I was expecting the first 11 to be sold after the game.

I just got to the red card incident. Naive decisions by Connor for two yellows. Based on the reactions here, I thought he was playing rubbish before he got sent off. He wasn't. On the contrary, he was brilliant and it certainly isn't his last game for Chelsea going by his general output before the sending off.
