HanksAnuku: Like NFL Jorginho is the quarterback and using Kante ahead was to press from the front so that jorginho will have the needed space and time. I doubt he planned for Jorginho to be involved in the trenches of close quarters football |

HanksAnuku: I feel like we lack creativity elsewhere. If the opposition had other playmakers to worry about, they wouldn't be able to focus on Jorginho. Kante is looking so harmless in that box to box role, I don't see him playing dangerous passes or making good runs in the box. Kovacic is talented but once again he's not very direct. The full backs aren't really creative either (and despite our goal coming from an Azpilicueta cross, when we attacked from the flanks). People shit on Luiz and for a good reason, but his long passing is actually a pretty decent plan B - he can play really dangerous passes from the back when Jorginho is marked. He just had a terrible game yesterday. 1 Like |

raumdeuter:lol You and airmark sha My style of play is similar to rudiger...Tall lanky no no sense defender....But my positioning is a suspect sometimes.... On David luiz I Prefer Not To Speak. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by HanksAnuku: 9:36pm On Nov 25, 2018 |
raumdeuter: Kante is a bit one dimensional though. He's the best in the world at winning the ball back, but he's almost useless in advanced positions. A naingollan or main man Vidal are the perfect all rounders to complement Jorginho. If we want to keep playing the Jorginho role, then he has to be paired with Barkley and Kovacic abeg. Otherwise let's drop Jorgi and play 4231. Or 433 with Kante in the anchor position. See how son ran away from Jorginho for that third goal. Son actually slowed down, had a quick chat with Jorginho, then zoomed off to make a fool out of David Luiz |

Kimbeast: Jorginho is Sarriball. Sarri' s tactics are so dependent on the guy, that Sarri had to bring him along to London. Everything you highlighted there is irrelevant because Sarri deliberately funnels all play through Jorginho. Jorginho did not have a bad game. That implies that he can be held responsible for his showing yesterday. There's literally nothing he could have done. Spurs played a diamond specifically to choke him out of the game...and he's our single point of failure. No plan B 6 Likes |

For those of you that might have been looking for where raumdeuter got that excerpt https://www.eurosport.co.uk/football/world-cup/2018/exorcising-the-ghost-brazil-and-the-7-1_sto6794528/story.shtml My goodness. That was incredible writing. The part discussing the Brazilian commentator during the match was literary genius. Jack Lang. if this man wrote a book, I need to find and buy 2 copies 6 Likes |

raumdeuter: You were that iddiot that gave age excuse for Boathand using hand to stop an aerial ball against Italy, years after. How old is David Luiz now, ode?. Luiz at his peak in Fifa's book, was better than your alagolo defender, when we look at their individual abilities. 7 Likes |

Ibime: Sarri was deffending him that, he had to do that so that he won't deflect the ball into the net. What a defence. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Nobody: 10:35pm On Nov 25, 2018 |
airmark:yeah...the nonsense man....better than Luiz tho |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Ibime(m): 10:50pm On Nov 25, 2018 |
Bimffo: Sarri never criticises defenders. He even said he doesn't want defenders to mark |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by Bimffo(m): 10:55pm On Nov 25, 2018 |
Ibime: Ah. Can't wait for January to come. I know the Chelsea board will back him up with some Funds. I don't want to see Luiz, Willy and Ambassador in that squad.. Ambassador can't lead that Chelsea line. Read some rumors that Higuain is on his way. I think for now, we will manage him. |

Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by raumdeuter: 11:05pm On Nov 25, 2018 |
Agbakolly: See wayo man, you quickly denied Luiz and tagged with Rudiger. Maybe airmark was the Luiz type defender |

HanksAnuku: Do you remember an argument here some seasons back when some claimed Kante was actually better as a box to box instead of at DM |

HanksAnuku: This part "Galvão Bueno isn't known for his mastery of nuance, but this is bad even by his standards. Miller? Kross? The grand old dinosaur of Brazilian commentary needs to spend the interval practising these German player names. Except, um, no, he's probably going to have more important things to do now, because it's 2-0 and Brazil are sinking like an anvil in a swimming pool. "They're coming again!" he hollers as Toni Kroos (two Os, one S) clobbers the third goal past Júlio César. "Brazil have completely lost control of the game! Not even the most pessimistic fan could have imagined this!" The exclamation marks are almost audible. Predictably, he has hit 10 on the dial pretty early. He digs deep to muster more doom for goals four ("It's turning into a stroll!" and five ("How absurd. It's like a training match between a national team and a bunch of kids!", but by the time the second half rolls around, resignation has set in. When Oscar scores his non-consolation goal in the final minute, Galvão's trademark "gooooooooooool" is scaled back to a mere "gol" – a telling verbal white flag from a man whose soul has long since exited his body." 3 Likes |

Agbakolly: Your village people must be wicked then. I'm not sure you won interdepartmental cup, let alone NUGA cup. Luiz won Ucl and epl, where are yours? (in raumdeuter's horrible voice) |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by afrodoc2: 11:13pm On Nov 25, 2018 |
HanksAnuku: Yeah i did say that. He is struggling to adapt to the new role but i believe that might be partly due to the Sarriball slow pace possession footie and over reliance on Jorginho. He would adapt better to the role if it was a faster paced, less possession oriented system. Last last, generally speaking even at DM is not the player he was 2-3years ago, even last year it had become apparent he no longer covered up to 70% of the world again. |

raumdeuter: I expected them to write Luiz instead of Brazil in the highlighted line above, based on the fact that it was Luiz that conceded those goals. Mumu. What made you not to quote the lines below too? "Júlio César: buried. Maicon: crushed. Dante: lost. David Luiz: confused. Marcelo: aimless. Luiz Gustavo: demolished. Fernandinho: wild. Paulinho: outclassed. Oscar: weak. Hulk: shambolic. Ramires: irrelevant. Bernard: misguided. Fred: tragic. Willian: insipid. Felipão: vanquished." But you oponu would say Luiz conceded those 7 goals. 7 Likes 1 Share |
