7/26 Pulisic starts MASSIVE GAME v Wolves; note: other EPL results will be discussed

not a great day for concacaf tbh

 

I was thinking the defense looks pretty composed today.

 

Any forward or slightly forward pass Pulisic has attempted has been met by nobody at all in blue.

 

concacaf em, puli!

 

Relative to their recent standard, I agree. But they're not all that confidence-inspiring, mostly because of recent results. However, I believe in Caballero at least maybe making an important save, unlike the other guy.

 

How's Jimenez doing?

 

man u up 1

 

Same as Pulisic, except Pulisic's team is winning.

 

invisible until the one moment strikers are supposed to live for where he promptly did nothing

 

still think cho would help here, just to spread it out. mount cant help ranging the whole pitch.

 

Giroud and Willy are having massive games just for the calming influence alone

 

pulisic and mount both making better runs now than when they needed goals, coupla dummies...

 

an off game for pulisic still sees him create multiple incredibly dangerous moments

 

mason mount might score a great free kick but that is so terrible

 

CP off today... but played better in the 2nd half. He was making a lot of runs asking for the ball but only really got one over the top and he got a dangerous FK just outside the box. You could see him screaming for one from Alonso towards the end of the game and didn't get it. Had that chance at the end too on a nice give and go but totally shanked the shot. Just not his best performance... but you can't play like Superman in every game. I distinctly remember Hazard have a few less than great performances for Chelsea.

 

He has shown signs today of losing that selfish attitude... but that was flat out horrible. You have to play Tammy in on that play. It was a relatively easy pass. But overall... pretty darn good performance from him today.

 

Man, Traore looks more like a rugby player than footballer. Wears his shorts like one, too.

 

I am liking him in the midfield. Energy, physicality. He is not much on link up play, but he is a presence.

 

Next year it will be tougher for defenses to crowd CP, and he will be better at finding people when they do.

 

Chelsea's in.
