If you’re just looking at the score of the Chelsea – Man U game, you will be thinking “another loss for Chelsea, another bad performance.”
But the reality is that the Blues have created some great chances, and should have been ahead in the game.
Our finishing has reached a new low however, and has created this utterly bizarre stat – we’ve had more “big chances” than we’ve had shots on target.
Our 3 “big chances created” means we should have scored 2 or 3 goals. Instead, we didn’t manage a single shot on target.
Mykhailo Mudryk fluffed the best chance of the game as it was played to him in front of goal and he panicked.
Not long after, Man U scored.
Then Chelsea had a great chance to equalise, but the ball came to Conor Gallagher through a defender’s legs and he didn’t anticipate, and also ended up missing a great chance. He then missed a harder one not long after.
Overall we’ve played some great stuff with the ball and carved United open. But if you miss small chances, let alone big chances, you’ll never win a game.
Chelsea players are trying but lack strategy. It is a mess. They dont realise that you play football to score goals. Havertz is a total mess. If Chelsea play him next season I will be shocked. He is totally pathetic.
lamps record between everton and chelsea is 1 – 3 – 15 …. so yeh i think its the management and not the team. they are trying but no direction means you just run around like headless chickens.
Let’s face it. Nobody wants to criticize the club legend, but Lampard has been far worse than Potter ever was. The record doesn’t lie. He may be many things (most of them “super”), but he’s rubbish as a manager. The product on the field is not just underwhelming, it’s been flat out embarrassing at many points, and that’s not where we were when Lampard arrived.
Lewis hall felix and azpi did well and kepa tried but Chelsea really need a forward a center back and aa prominent center back
