abeg goan join ur fellow wailers to wail..as far as I'm concerned,,we didn't lose anything today...there are 32more games to play for...city were d ones under pressure... d 1-0 will not give dem our UCL neither will it make dem crowned EPL champions today...in fact just go ur thread

Ibime:


Our great playmaker dropping only 30 passes again today.

If it's Newcastle, we might see 100 passes.

�Thomas Tuchel Post-match Interview - Part 1/2:

"We lost the game and I think City deserved to win. For 60 minutes, until the goal, we were very strong in the last 20 metres of the field. The other 80 metres we were not good enough."

"We did not have ball possession to hurt them, to grow in confidence. It never happened in the first half, or second half. Until the goal we defended very very well in the box."

"The performance was not complex enough, overall not on our very best level and you need the best level to push the game against this side."

"After the goal you feel like the belief of winning is bigger than losing. We tied to push, got the crowd behind us. It was a very open, emotional game."

"We were never on our highest level. You cannot expect to get a result. It could turn things around maybe with one header. We can accept it was not our best game."

"We adjusted our system to a double six, we thought it might help us but then we conceded a goal from set play. Even if we wanted to go for long balls to Romelu it was not precise enough."

"I did not feel the belief, 100% that we believed in it. It was doubtful and we were protecting something, it felt like we had something to lose. There was a lot more to win than to lose. Can happen. We lacked energy."

"Jorginho had some problems, Thiago cannot start. Maybe it is on me, I didn’t make the best choices today."

This was u....No?

User09:


Lol...

I was never gonna bring this up but u do realize part of the reason TT has to put an extra midfielder is cos Lukaku doesnt press

TT's 3-4-3 requires fluid 3 pressing forwards. Lukaku simply does not. It's all good cos he brings in the goals. Notice how Timo was pressing both on the left and right wing. At some point he became predictable to the city's defence

The extra midfielder is to cover that gap. The man is clearly trying to find a solution that's optimal, enough of the individual blaming

User09:


Jorg had a knock and wasnt meant to start the match.

nihilistjnr:


You people chat some utter nonsense sha. What does pressing have to do with formation that features 5 defenders and 2 holding midfielders

Very simpu sturvs.

Havertz could have started with Werner and Lukaku. His legs were not chained.

Actman05:
Reece James had classic “high ankle sprain” mechanism w/ ankle forcibly twisted outwards, he left ground bandaged but no boot which likely means no fracture but MRI still needed, this injury means Reece will be out for 4-6 weeks.

Actman05:
Loftus-Cheek only played 14+ mins but he ended the game with the same amount of ground duels won that Jorginho & Kanté had combined.

I am only surprised because you barely speak against raumdeuter's comments on him.

raumdeuter:


Yes Pep has won it twice unlike Tuchel that hasnt won at all, So what better way to encourage your protege than letting him win

Pep has been writing affidavit to top clubs to get Tuchel a job, he even recommended Tuchel to Bayern. Now with the CL win top clubs will accept Peps protege

User09:


Jorg had a knock and wasnt meant to start the match.

Ibime:


Story for the Gods. He must be having knock Everytime he faces a mid-to-top level team.

He must have had knock when he played Spain for 120 mins and only registered 30 passes, or when he played UCL final for 120 mins and only registered 120 mins.

Fake playmaker that turns into water carrier when he faces any decent midfield.

Nothing like knock, you are either fit or unfit at this level of football. You can only be unfit for cardio reasons.

hensben:
When opponent don tire? Forget all this stats. Una too like stats sef without even knowing the actual reason for it in football.

raumdeuter:


Pep has won the CL twice, Tuchel has won 0. before the final. How else can you encourage your protege?

A boy you are encouraging you need to let him win small

popizaino:
Timo Werner no be am at all,this loss is 65% on him solely. He doesn't understand what do on the pitch all. How can one person be clueless, lack confident,and still be at a top club like Chelsea. I can't think far

MorataFC:
I'm a kind of person that always keep faith on my team and my players but after today's game I think Timo's is irredeemable though I still like him but for how long can we continue to romance with mediocre players at the detriment of team's success?
