The way our defense is set up is solid, I’m positive city will have a hard time getting in.

The difference between Lampard and Tunchel remain crystal clear.

Werner to the rescue?

First comment on the match

I missed the first half

The time I turn tv on na Kovacic I see trying to dribble 2 players in front of our box

Kai Kovacic needs to go

Good result. See as Tuchel made Madrid toothless.

Giroud was here

11000

The first half performance was more than I expected

TalabiAudu:
This useless midfielders we just pack.

Them no fit shoot.

Them no fit make threatening pass

Shebi Kovacic is not pairing Kante tonight

No creativity, average player is an average player no matter who he’s paired with

hensben:
You’ll saw what I’m saying about Kante Kovacic pairing in that midfield, it even made Kovacic perform averagely.

I don’t agree.

Kante has track record playing in midfield two, with players like Pogba, Matic, even Drinkwater. Winning major trophies in all events.

Has Kovacic had any record that atleast we can compare with in the past to know if he’s not the problem? Under previous coach like Sarri or Lampard was Jorginho Kovacic partnership really that perfect?

100trillion:

You leave Zoomma, Shoediger, and Temmileyin wey spoil ball and open mouth waaaaaah dey badmouth Kovacic!

This hatred will chok u o, u better be kiaful

You wouldn’t be civil in your arguments because you care more about gathering likes & being liked by the majority.

All these players you mentioned have been known for their unreliability over the years. Nobody overhype them like they do Kovacic.

When you’ve a stable strong midfielder that shield the defense well, all these inadequacies by defenders would be less noticed. Has Kovacic won any important trophy that was not from the bench?

Some people are even making excuses for kova by saying it’s Kante fault. Same Kante that played with Matic & average midfielder like DrinkWater and excelled.

My interest mostly lies on midfield & Kovacic had a bad game yesterday. Or am I the one operating these Twitter accounts?

Greatihex:
It is Barkley that will start for tier 1 club, abi?
Barkley is gone forever at Chelsea ọ, better settle with that.

Will your RLC start at a tier 1 club? The arguments between us have been Barkley vs RLC

If Barkley can’t get to a tier 1 club then so is your RLC

How’s your beloved overhyped RLC doing this season, btw ?

BlueMann:
Definitely two points dropped, even though we equalized. It doesn't get any easier from here.
Wonder how nobody picked up Minamino's run for that goal, Zouma especially was culpable.

Nice game overall from Mount, had perhaps an average first half but was by far the best attacker in the second period.

Still needs to work on his creativity though.

James has got potential but he needs to start taking on players or passing forward more, though I think he did more of that in the second half.

Kova was off his pace today.

Oh, and T.Silva is vely vely imporrant.

One point is better than none. We meuvee.

Didn’t watch the game, but I’m not surprised.

Kovacic can’t play 3, 4 consecutive games at a top level, his level of unreliability was what made many coaches kept him glued to the bench. Clueless in Attack, can’t shoot & flawed in defending.

I know some will say it’s because he was not paired with Jorginho today. But really, are we just watching J5 & Kov in a midfield of 2? Hardly have I seen both had a masterclass game together pass 4 5 games.

Average player that wouldn’t start for any tier 1 club.

Try harder.

Make we start #Tuchelout for disappointing you?

See you here blaming Sarri for Kovacic inadequacies, similar way you must’ve blamed Croatia coach and Zidane. Kovacic gave you his honeymoon under Lampard, you said Sarri made you write him off.

Did Lampard too almost made you write him off? I’m sure soon you’ll start blaming Tuchel. Stay one place.

airmark:


Imagine yeye Sarri almost made me to write Kovacic off. Chai.

Kovacic vs Newcastle

To me, he is the best Chelsea player so far under Tuchel. If he can improve on his shooting skill, the world is not ready.

Before anybody with poor memory say rubbish about him, no be today.

But your memory didn’t remember you saying Madrid sold us grade b product like morata? So you mean Kovacic prime is not gone like you asserted here?

airmark:

Prime Kovacic has gone, Madrid keep sending us grade b products.

Double post

Win fight lose fight concede fight cleansheet fight why

But some hypocrites here sha. They’re quick to mention me to prove me wrong as Kovacic is performing better under Tuchel, same people here wanted us to continue with Lampard & failed to noticed the player they/we condemned the most Kepa Rugider Jorginho Alonso improvement under same coach.

Unto the next.

airmark:


Thecassanova may jump into lagoon, be careful.

Would you have watched this game with a relaxed mind under Lampard like below?

airmark:


With everyone fit, i watch with a relaxed mind like Lampard

NextD18:
Rudiger has been impressive under TT

Is it true airmark?

3 points & a Clean sheet in reach.

Hmm It’s not Mendy at the post today so Unlimited22 can not send thunder to Kepa.

airmark:


Kovacic had already given you your deserved L, no need for more.

Bros Take one L for Lampard & another L cos Rudiger is giving you steady L under Tuchel

Emaprince:
Even though we wish the best for the new coach, do you really believe he won't have his own rough patch at some point in his stint?

AVB performed badly and di Mateo took over, won FA cup and the holy grail. He was praised and given the job fully. Today, where is he?

I just hope we won't see you lots that disrespects your legend as if you have no respect for elders in your village, here shouting tuchel out if things become tough? Even pep had a poor run earlier this season. He was just lucky he isn't a Chelsea manager. So every manager must have his own taste.

Nobody is supporting a manager longtime & I didn’t disrespect Lampard. He’s our legend but his tactics were called to question.

TT will come & go like others but a large share of what we enjoy from the players right now are work of his brilliance. Even we’re not seeing Rudiger Kepa Jorginho lapses like we used to. Doesn’t that tells us something.

airmark:


Where were you when i complained about Lampard's decisions? I only wanted to give him a long rope and don't let us act as if he didn't beat Fulham away from home some days before his sack, same team that just beat Ancelotti at home.

You said Kovacic couldn't become good under any coach, including Tuchel, that's the talk you should be ashamed of.

Let me ask you first, is Rudiger turning up under Tuchel?

airmark:


Na goat rope dem suppose use tie your neck for outside, whenever Kovacic is balling.

You get time to dey dig posts

Take your L with the assessments of Lampard first that people like me I’ve seen since the season started. Good football by TT make you dey enjoy football now you dey find who to drag.

airmark:


They said you warned us about Kovacic, can you remind us your warning?

What did you tell us about Lampard when we were underlying his tactics deficiencies for you?

Tunchel put CHO wingback, brought back Alonso etc. The team shape suddenly is not disrupted.

I’ve watched Kovacic long under Sarri and Lampard. With few games I can only give TT the credit, though I know he will get a better midfielder like ndidi then kova will be surplus to requirements.

airmark:
After this match some people will still tell us that they can't see what Kovacic is doing in this team.

Let’s watch match with peace abeg

No be you they support Lampard, when we the LampardOut crews were telling you. You’re enjoying the team play now you’re happy.

E be like Werner leg no straight

Giroud
