boratsbrother Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Enzo lost 9 out of 10 of his duels and lost the ball a staggering 23 times. Pound for pound, that must be up there with the all-time worst performances by a Chelsea player.😟 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Its not surprising really - him and Caicedo have probably played in every game (and yep, I know we dont have any replacements) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chara Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 A little while back I made a point reiterated here,,at what ever level I played at there were always players able to see game day on pitch issues and changes were made..sometimes worked sometimes not but that is the game. Differences...whilst every player probably could see issues not all could see the solutions or changes needed....of those that could see not all were strong enough personalities,..on the pitch...to enforce or implement such changes BUT always the "leaders" remained and they were the ones who shuffled things and were listened to....the same with the better coaches. We see very little obvious changes influenced by players and little understandable working game management from the bench, In the earlier timed out post not posted I mentioned that I'm no great tactical brain but I can see what is wrong as we all can and to my somewhat simple football brain I thought it was obvious that Sterling and/or Mudryk be brought on to run at SU and change up from the same build up which invariably was glacial and finished with multiple players tip tapping to each other (or not!) in and around the crowded penalty area...over simplification I know but as ever changes too late,,,surely a good coach by half time can see issues and makes changes as needed early enough to change the approach?..again to my limited understanding it would appear The Poch does not have enough faith in his own decision making to make any bold or difficult decisions early enough to make a difference even given the lack of overall experience in the side and injury influenced bench options. Was Palmer pulled because of a knock,,or rather the almost criminal assault incident? We have an ineffective coaching team for the times we are in...simple fact to my mind. As ever..The Poch out...jobsworth appointment.... but who could handle the present situation? 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As ever..The Poch out...jobsworth appointment.... but who could handle the present situation? We’re on the same page as regards in the pitch influence - some here will see that archaic ramblings, ‘the games moved on’ - ‘stuck in the 1920’s’ yada, yada. But the truth is that football is and always has been a game where the best organised, with the best work ethic and talented will generally win out. You can park your xG, possession stats etc, do the aforementioned bits first and fore-mostly. Refine after you have those basics taken care of. The fraud and the fraud squad at the side and behind him have not done that and quite frankly won’t. Would I trust Lawrence and Winstanley with a £ of my money - Not a chance. Apart from the likelihood of that set of chancers having massive termination clause’s I’d bin them too. £215 million on the two midfielders - gross misconduct! Anyway, Palmer was limping when he came onto the pitch after the game. So there was something wrong. Second question - I’d genuinely take any competent coach who’ll get us organised - let’s see what one with a couple of football brain cells can do. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chara Posted April 8 Share Posted April 8 Thanks @east lower... I am a great believer in the advances in the game at probably every level but as you stated the basic things do not change,,,score the most goals concede the least,,, bottom line and the more thought (coaching) that goes into achieving that the more a coach needs to work at HIS job,,,too simple a concept? Taken that EV's are state of the art compared to the first motorised vehicles...they still only take you from A to B with more comfort and speed but..........😉🦖🏎️🚘 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He got taken out by a late two footed high speed tackle that was a few postcodes away from the ball. Thankfully the ref noticed and sent the miscreant off. Oh wait. No he didn't. 1 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hundreds of thousands of the things stood up, as dealers can’t move the new EV’s. Just changed my car and the dealers pretty much all said the same. Salespeople are getting annoyed as they can’t earn the same commissions as when selling combustion engines. The chap at BMW said they were considering stopping production of EV’s in the next 10 years, as there’s something coming to replace them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neigh 🐴 He said something about hydrogen - floated well above my head 😉 360 miles yesterday on a decent bit than less than half a tank of diesel. 210bhp, 2-litre engine.
