Nice to see all the youth in this must win game. Good we are giving Mikel an opportunity to extend his contract.
Would have liked to see at least RLC and Kenedy or Traore. Would have probably to let Hazard have his rentree later in the second half, oh well Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
I get Pedro scored and all, but why the ******** is he even playing? Traore or Kenedy need minutes. We already know the mediocrity that is Pedro. Would have liked to see RLC next to Matic instead of the spent force that is Fabregas (he's been at this since he was 16. His legs are shot).
Pedro and Fab always do well against teams in the mid-table . . .against the bigger clubs and in the important games they are usually MIA
Begovic tips it against the bar and over, unfortunately Bournemouth score for the pit corner kick. Sent from my iPad using Tapatalk
That is because he is expected to do the dirty work which he just cannot do. Put 2 hardworking mids around him and let him do what he does best in attack. That is why I am excited to see what Conte does with him next season.
We would have to build the team to cater to solely to him, then. No thanks. One half against Bournmouth doesn't outweigh this entire season's body of work, as well as the back half of last season. He's 29 in a weeks time, is entering his 14th top flight season, and is only going to get slower. That's not an issue in Serie A, but it is in England.
Why on earth is Mikel playing CB over Miazga? I don't mind going for a "full strength" side too much after consecutive defeats, but that decision is almost unforgivable for me. Would like to see Traore and Kenedy get decent minutes in the second half. The good news is that Hazard scored, and it looked like it meant a lot to him. Bit of a shaky half for Begovic too
Pretty much. We could keep Dave, Hazard, Costa, Willian, Baba and Courtois in the squad. . .and the youngsters RLC, Kenedy, Traore. . .the rest? meh
This co-commentator is the guy who sounds like he's gonna top himself when we win a game, isn't he... I forget the name but he's a total pillock.
