🚨 BREAKING: Chelsea are closing in on an agreement over a loan move for Facundo Buonanotte after Leeds United saw their move for the Brighton & Hove Albion attacking midfielder collapse. (via @David_Ornstein)
Is Maresca using Enzo effectively vs deep blocks?
“He used to get 80-90 touches a game, on the weekend he got 42, Caicedo for 84”
“When Xavi comes in, we could play double 10’s with Enzo behind spraying the passes”
@CFCPys and @Laus1507 discuss
Maresca on Acheampong: "Very good, very good. We already showed some confidence with Josh last season. He dealt well with Mateta and overall he had a good game."
Praise for Estevao, he doesn't blame lack of preseason for the result.
That’s hopefully not going to be a regular occurrence against deep blocks. If that’s a rarity today; then fine, just don’t make it a habit. We had no ideas on how to break their structure down yet still had a golden chance to win at the end with Santos, who unfortunately messed up.
@SOCobhamPod@MattDaviesAdams Why didn't Maresca change the formation and get Gusto overlapping with Estaveo? At least try something FFS. World Champions, yes, but too cocky and probably what was needed to bring them back down a peg or 2.
Always loved Law 13 😳
Let's get your thoughts on the pretty uninspiring goalless draw with Palace for tomorrow's pod...
More reinforcements needed? Or just a frustrating day at the office?!
@MattDaviesAdams leading the debate - plus looking ahead to Friday @ West Ham ⚒️
So… if we’re not signing a Cb (terrible decision) then surely we bring Veiga back into the mix?
He’s an in house option and only left on loan as he wanted to play LCB. Now he has good chances.
