    Or, we can play a 3-4-3 and make Konrad the LWB right behind Pulisic.

    He had stretches where he didn't affect games at RW with Dortmund. Obviously modern wingers switch sides during games and all that but Chelsea play him a lot more often on the left where he can cut in on his right foot.

    That wouldn't work. They'd get in each other's way and not play enough defense. Konrad should get better defensively but this Marseille team is very attacking and he's basically treating the wing back position as a winger who tracks back some.

    Game a bit out of control now after a teammate gets hit with something. Don’t think KDLF did but 2-3 of his teammates started throwing stuff back into the crowd.

    Konrad is having the look of "What the hell did I get myself into?"

    Sampoli is like a little bulldog waiting to be unleashed.

    The key thing here is that this type of nonsense should get de la Fuente up to speed on CONCACAF shithousery.

    These guys are worse. Time to end the trope that the Central Americans are somehow worse. This seems to be happening quite often in Europe now. Fans seem to be making up for the lost time of them being excluded from stadia for a year because of covid.

    Wow some of the craziest scenes I've ever seen from a Top 5 league with the Nice ultras storming the field and the Nice and Marseille staff getting into it.

    That’s terrifying.

    Nice next home match should be played behind closed doors.

    Yeah this should be an automatic fan ban for at least 3 games very dangerous
