    Disinterested, no. Lacking the ability to read the game, use the ball effectively, understand where his is on this interestingly mowed pitch and communicate with his teammates. Yes.

    Superb ball through from Willian. The less Morata has to think about options and just play the better.

    I have to feel sorry for Baka there it was his own stupid play but it was not a yellow, just like the Watford game.

    Balance has been achieved by a bad mistake and a resulting yellow. Was worried for the universe for a moment there.

    His goals to time on the pitch ratio is not that bad, but I have never declared an opinion of him.

    But I think you are missing my point, you have to record the conditions under which the experimental observations are made.

    Sodium under oil is nonreactive, in water it is not. In France Baka is one thing, the premier league is a totally different environment. If I supported a French team I might consider Baka, but I support Chelsea and under those circumstances he has been less that efficient.

    Football is football. Baka may not have been great in France, but I have a hard time believing he’s this bad.

    Well I no knowledge of how Baka was in France but for me the definition of insanity is to keep picking Baka for Chelsea and expecting him to play well.

    However with this in mind (repeating oneself) I am now withdrawing from this debate we obviously have differing views that can not be resolved and before I am carted of to the mad house :confused:

    He is this bad under Conte and in this system but under a new manager with a different role who knows. I still have faith he will come good but playing this badly and getting subbed at half time will do nothing for him.

    What happens upstairs will shape my opinion of what to do with him but I am loathe to give up on another young player.

    Hazard is so much better when he makes a pass rather than a flick
