Damn. Hazard you could have done better.

wtf Costa just dey spoil every counter

Okay. We are settling now. I was worried we were being sloppy

We should start capitalizing on these chances. They are defending too sloppy and we are seeing much space to play our game, let's kill this game off.

Roland17:
R. Koeman is utilizing Mous tactics of man marking Hazard with I. Gueye, thus far, it seems to be working. Maybe a yellow card on Gueye may change everything.

I don't think its working. hazard is seeing much of the ball than he did against utd

When we make the transition, we look sharp moving forward.

Looks like Willian would be coming on for the supposedly injured Costa.

Na Conte voice we dey hear shouting like that?

Great drive from Matic

Lukaku

He should have scored

How did he not hit the target at least?

Then you have Barkley who's more of a runner than a true CM, that tactics is leaving them exposed in the middle.

That Davies of a guy would suffer the consequences, he is already throwing in dangerous tackles.

Costa is a fool mehn

Lukaku

C'mon

Lol lukaku
Smh

Chelsea not been able to string. Decent passes upfront should worry conte o
Is it because of fabreagas?

Can Fabregas come on early please?

Negredo proving something against Citeh?

Have these defenders not heard of dropping 5 yards when dealing with a striker like Lukaku?

It's simple. Luiz has to clap him soon as ball comes near him, then Cahill should be 5 yards behind to pick up the drop of the ball.

This is basic defending you would learn in a sweeper system.

And someone is telling me that chelsea should pay huge pounds for this costa in black colour

We need to stop this crap next season. Man-marking sh1it! We need to get another dangerous player that makes this nonsense obsolete

I am looking at table and saying to myself, Everton have nothing to lose, so why are they man marking Hazard? Well if you remember the 1st leg at the bridge when Everton lost 5-0, Hazard was the chief coordinator. He scored a brace and assisted in 2 i think.

Koeman wants other Chelsea players to beat Everton, as a free, and mobile Hazard may lead to another drubbing.

What kinda nonsense is this?

Man marking a player


Mourinho only contributes negative ideas to the game

Nateevs post is the reason why i think the man marking is working. Chelsea have not exactly created chances, and Everton have controlled the pace and direction of the game.

R. Koeman wants another Chelsea player not named Hazard to defeat his team.

I hope this profligacy doesn't kill us. Everton are obviously not organized. Their defense-line isn't getting enough protection from their midfield. They're exposed.

Fabregas would give Kirman something else to worry about and also give Hazard free role, let's see if Gueye would follow him to some unconventional positions.

Hazard should be able to shake off niggas like Herrera and Gueye though. I can't see a single player manmarking Messi out of the game.

Hehe. The drubbing which was masterminded by Hazard maybe

Griffon:

You get the drift...I don't think Koeman believes he can defeat Chelsea, he just wants to keep it respectable, and that means man marking Hazard.

No coach enjoys being pummeled, especially now they are playing at home.

mess I hardly get marked out of a game, to mark him out you need to isolate his pass from other team mates...

That man is on another stratosphere when it comes to skill, technique, intelligence, ball and position awareness in comparison to Hazard. That man is a rare breed.

Hazard should just stay wide to open up the midfield

If you ask me , i would suggest he plays as the main striker while Costa moves to the wings. That would make it very very difficult for Gueye.
