Chelsea's defensive attitude looks solid right now.

What's strange ffs it's been just 6 games

That sort of rational and sensible response won't stand here I'm afraid.

By the way, Watford are a really good side. With their pressing under Javi Garcia, you would think they are a top class team. I think they rank first in the league with balls won in the opponents half over Liverpool and City. Doucoure reminds me a bit of Kante with fewer abilities on the ball. Tough team, glad we got the 3 points.

After spending 200m on a team. I think it's just strange to say that tbh

Chelsea are knocking the ball around nicely

Hazard with some confidence in his step atm ffs

coward mentality imo

Liverpool have absolutely NO EXCUSES, remember. Already out of 1 cup. Klopp HAS to win something this year or he should be sacked. Second place and no trophies shouldn't be acceptable.

When does the point arrive where people realize spending money is meaningless? Especially in this league.

how come you're always complaining that Ashley spends nothing then

RealGunner wrote:Only Hazard would get into our team

Kante, Alonso, Jorginho, their CBs lol

Liverpool's front three are finding a lot of space against Chelsea. Chelsea's midfield aren't doing a great job of protecting their backline.

Not blaming it all on Jorginho but I don't understand why he's playing as the 6 in these games with Kante as an 8. I feel like the issue could be solved by swapping them around.

As I say that Hazard scores lol.

It was a joke ffs

Same old Liverpool.

HAZARDDDDDDD

Would expect Allison to save that to be honest

168m (including Keita 50m from 1.5 years) excluding sales plz

chelsea playing some veeeeery nice football atm

such a weird team, multiple meh seasons and then they have a great one like clockwork

bit poor from alisson tbf and the cb's

ffs, Blue was still talking utterly deluded shit, Hazard hasn't even been a top 10 player in the league over the last few seasons but he is on fire so far this season

Immense thread coming up if chelsea win

Not what I meant lol.

Arsenal have spent over 100m on two forwards, there's been multiple 60m signings by nearly everyone in the top 6.

There comes a point where it becomes diminishing returns.

City didn't win the league because they spent more than 100m on fullbacks and Liverpool won't win the league because of the money spent.

It goes way further than that, in a league where everyone spends massive amounts of money the success you achieve is earned because of something way deeper then what you spent.

Demonstrative of Hazard's career

Chelsea have a much stronger squad than any of us, they needed a good manager and they've found it in Sarri.

That said two continous losses to the same team could be a great kick on the ass to this overachieving team.

BTW if Hazard keeps this up he'll have finally perform at the level worthy of his hype.

This is the sort of performance he's putting on which you'd think he's been doing for years the way people talk but he hasn't.

Spends 100m on Keita/Fabinho -> Still plays Henderson/Milner/Wijnaldum

Smh.

Lmao blind refs
