Chelsea will be gash. It's Huddersfield, didn't they start last season well too? idr, feels like they did, even Morata was banging in goals ffs. It's that new manager effect. @Pardiola

It's not about that. It's the fact for the first time in many years they have a manager who doesn't shackle their players. Some day when Mourinho leaves you'll experience this tbh.

They'll be good when Hazard comes back and even better if Kovacic can play 10% as good as reputation.

who does Kovacic come in for though? hmm

Can he play the 10 role?

Hodgson is the old dog.

by Jay29 Sat Aug 11, 2018 5:19 pm

How well Chelsea are adapting to Sarri's style will be tested against less passive teams than Huddersfield. Sounds like Huddersfield lacked intensity today.

Still, they have good attackers already. Any degree of freedom should see them perform better than they have been. There was already enough quality there to see off Huddersfield, who suck tbh.

He will replace Barkley at LCM role, which is pretty much a 10 role, the most advanced player in midfield.

We are in for a special season from Hazard, we may witness the greatest PL individual season ever from him.

If this guy just turns up and wins the title with Chelsea just like conte did and CR did with Leicester and Liverpool finish 3rd or 4th I’m never watching football again.

Scrappy goal for Everton. Richard and Alison both on the scoresheet. 1-0

by El Gunner Sat Aug 11, 2018 5:49 pm

Sweet fantasy points, Richarlison Molenation

Not judging was just hoping the streaks lined up with the shirt, disappointed.

I know right? It threw the OCD-me so out of orbit that it had to become my avatar. 'twas a bit sadistic, I admit - wanted to make a few others go through the same.

Jagielka is the first sending off of the season.

by Nishankly Sat Aug 11, 2018 6:12 pm

Jagielka sent off

by Jay29 Sat Aug 11, 2018 6:14 pm

Ruben Neves equalises from the resultant free-kick.

Another great goal from this kid ffs.

by VanDeezNuts Sat Aug 11, 2018 6:14 pm

...Just noticed Everton have an "Angry Birds" sponsorship on the sleeve. Embarrassing, lol. Is this the first season or have I been blind?

by VanDeezNuts Sat Aug 11, 2018 6:15 pm

Wow, Neves. What a strike

by El Gunner Sat Aug 11, 2018 6:15 pm

GODDDDAMN so this is what this Neves lad is all about. :bow:

Neves great FK, RG gonna sleep happy tonight

by Doc Sat Aug 11, 2018 6:24 pm

LEEDS WATCH:
Currently dominating Derby without actually going all out. Their full backs (Ayling and Douglas) creating nice overloads on the flanks and the midfield is doing better things with the ball. All in all, decent first half from them.

Casting an eye on the Everton Wolves game and Neves can only score golasos. Sure of it.
