Last Euro, Wales disgraced them.

Last World Cup, France messed them up after their lucky win against Brazil.

Now Italy...

Against Belgium, you have just one job, coordinate your defense and avoid mistakes, they can’t create shiit, just waiting for you to make mistakes so that they can capitalize on it. cheesy

Man.. you're indestructible grin

I don't trip on tournament football. Any team can focus on protecting all their weak spots in singular tournaments.

Try that in 38 games of league football and you will see Jorginho jogging on the spot while EPL AMs take turns råping him in the rain in Bournemouth.

That's how I told people here we shouldn't build on Mikel despite his great performance in the specific circumstances of 2012 UCL. They insisted that will translate to regular weekly football and Mikel proceeded to take us out of UCL group stage the next year and had to be dropped for Luiz to play midfield for Chelsea to even limp across the line in 4th place

A nigga who can't smell 5th or 7th PFA team in 3 years won't change my mind over few games of tournament football where Verratti and Barrella are protecting him.

Same people who love Jorginho also want Havertz to play 10. So Jorginho will play in a double pivot while Havertz will play in the hole? That's a midfield highway to hell. Notice how Verratti and Barrella are sticking so close to him to protect him, while Havertz wants to run the other way.

True!

But not entirely true, some players are just so committed and hardworking, some players are too serious and straightforward.

No manager can change them from that.

Insigne goal and Barrella goal was very impressive.

Belgium didn't put anyone to press Jorginho cos they are too busy trying to sit deep and play 3 at the back to protect their 3 old centrebacks

Why would they put anyone to press a player who is not a threat ?

You press a deeplying playmaker, you disrupt his team, and Jorginho succumbs to press everytime. I don't know why Martinez will be sitting back playing 3-4-3 with 3 centrebacks who don't contribute to the midfield, leaving Belgium midfield one short. . . instead of putting a 3rd midfielder on which is the AM you need to harry Jorginho. If you just put one AM on Jorginho, that's Italy's killswitch right there.

Jorginho had no one on him all day. He was just dropping deep to collect ball from the centrebacks with no AM on him because of course Witsel and Tielemans have to keep the 2 man shape deeper in the midfield

Had to squeeze out time to watch the 2nd half and I wasn't disappointed.

Ibime has started his lectures grin grin grin... No shame!.

He said Jorgs haven't met a strong opponent, hence why he hasn't been exposed. He met Belgium, dropped a world class performance and our lecturer shifted goal post to him being protected. He is weak yet the strong Varrati was subbed out.

Sometimes we should just accept our L. We can't possibly be right all the time.

My joy is that Horjtout was running all over the place when Dendonker was in Midfield but started escorting immediately KDB was subbed in. Jorginho went head to head to KBD and once again, came out victorious where Horjtout failed woefully.

Put some respect to this man's name

He did not go any head to head with KDB. KDB played on the right. Jorginho was unmarked all game due to Belgium's 3-4-3 formation, not that him passing the ball at the back would make any difference if not for Insigne and Barella pulling worldies.

This is what happened when Jorginho last went head to head Vs KDB as pure DM Vs pure AM.

6-0 disgrace. And that's what will happen anytime you take bodies away from Jorginho and have him go head to head with an AM without community defending or formation tweaks to protect him.

Was that not the same formation Belgium played when Horjtout shamelessly lost to them.... They introduced KDB and ur fav thug was immediately overwhelmed.

That same formation was what Jorgi faced today and he bossed that Midfield.

You are trying to give Barella and Insigne credit for the win but wouldn't mind blaming only Jorginho if they had lost. What kind of hypocrisy is this... Jorginho influenced this win; the Italians are grateful for having such an intelligent specimen

KDB's technique for me.

The guy Sabi strike ball pass most footballers on the planet
Oh ok. The one that suprises me is the corner kick duties. How hazard takes corners when KDB is on the pitch is a wonder though not as great as chadli taking it over him last WC.

Forget bringing in Danish team who are not mates player for player with Italian team. What does KDB playing on the right have to do with Hojberg in the centre.

The fact remains Jorginho was the only spare player in the match due to the 3-4-3 formation. KDBs pressing brief was on the Italian left back. Nobody had pressing brief on Jorginho. All those useless passes won't mean nothing if Insigne and Barrella hadn't scored worldies and Lukaku didn't miss two open nets. Nothing to do with Jorginho getting the ball off centrebacks with no pressure on him . Put pressure on him and he will crumble. That's why he's a so called deep controller and Chelsea don't control matches, simply because their controller can't handle any sort of pressing. What a disgrace of a controller, to the point his fans start counting tackles when we bought him to control games which he can't do under any sort of pressure.

Anybody who wants to build on Jorginho can't mean well for Chelsea. Thank God we are targeting other DMs that can do the job, not failed controllers trying to pose as tough tacklers
