Premier League 2021/22

Conte's refusal to make subs was testing me there because the original plan wasn't work. I think we desperately need to back him in January because he clearly doesn't trust some of his players - we particularly need a right wing back who can deliver against teams are going to sit deep. 

A little disappointed we haven't seen the 352 we deployed against Liverpool, I thought we looked dangerous in that game.

Glad I brought in and captained Antonio in FPL this week.

I dropped Davinson Sanchez...

I don't get why the internet feels Arsenal were robbed. The first one is probably not a penalty and there's certainly no evidence to definitively say it is, referee doesn't give it, VAR can't definitely say there's an error. Second one is definitely a penalty, referee doesn't give it, VAR sees it's an obvious error and tells the referee to go look.

Lukaku has apparently been dropped for today's game after his interview stirred up the headlines

[stokeriño]

Sigh.

Never a quiet season at Chelsea.

Though I wonder if he'd have done the same if Havertz/Werner weren't back in training.

[Kyle]

DCL is back! This is not a drill! No more relying on Salomon Rondon! Still probably gonna lose!

[Szumi]

Not gonna lie, Mane getting a yellow card by Anthony Taylor probably just saved VAR from sending him off. It made the "clear and obvious error" threshold that much harder to make red.

So naturally he then does what Pulisic couldn't do and scores after a defensive error puts him through 🤣

[stokeriño]

We have perfected the art of having 80% of the ball and conceding.

Salah is a joke.

I disagree, I think he's quite good.

[Baddar]

He's no Dan James.

Glad that Kovacic goal stood. 

What a great half of football.

[stokeriño]

Straight after the Kovacic having a shot on target, we have the marvel of Pulisic actually taking a shot. I am speechless.

[Szumi]

Infuriating to blow a 2-0 lead so quickly like that.

It's an absolute fluke worldie and a goal easily prevented. So frustrating. All over the place defensively

[gunnar hendershow]

Quite the half

I'm now forever referring to Dan James as the Welsh Salah.

We are a shambles, defensively. Not being urgent enough to get to the ball when we need to, especially with such a high fucking line (which I’ve come to absolutely be terrified by). Can’t keep a clean sheet to save our life. 

[Szumi]

Mendy's save on Salah was absolutely sensational. He is an incredible keeper. 

Kelleher just did great to deny Pulisic from point blank rage. This game is wild y'all

Missing three of your usual back five, that's not too surprising really.
