What I know is even when Caicedo comes back if Morgan, Joao and Palmer continue acting like defending is beneath them, Chelsea will still concede goals.
And before you people start your usual “but they are attackers” nonsense every player has a defensive responsibility in modern football.
Yes they are doing their jobs attacking wise nobody is denying that, But you cannot leave your midfielders and defenders exposed for 90 minutes and then scream COACH every time we concede.
Some of you Chelsea fans need to stop protecting your favorite players and speak the facts.
If you don’t press, track back or help your teammates defensively, You are part of the defensive problem.
End.
We finished that game with two fullbacks in midfield in a game Arsenal subbed on two world cup winning midfielders to replace their tired legs in midfield
Paying "industry pay" to players who can't even finish in the UCL spots with Chelsea in back-to-back seasons is stupid. And if they expect bumper contracts while continuously finishing outside the UCL spots and winning zero domestic trophies, they're stupid too.
