One of the reasons our midfield looked good in the first half of the Brentford game was because Palmer dropped deep and dictating play, making line breaking passes and feeding off runners but unfortunately, we have Neto on the wing.
Chelsea needs exactly the type of midfielders that will do exactly what Palmer was doing against Brentford in the first half.
Imagine Palmer getting to the end of those passes to Neto. That would have been a goal up at least in the first half to change the course of the game.
Last week, I talked about how Emi Martinez usually punches the ball to danger areas, but y’all disagreed and a few called me names.
This is another example but unfortunately it resulted to a goal.
It’s a goalkeeper blunder!
In all of this, Enzo Fernández won. We strengthened Manchester City, failed to get a proper replacement, and somehow walked away from the transfer window weaker. We lost the transfer window, and we’re going to pay for it with a lot of dropped points and losses this season.
it might be completely against the player’s will, but i wouldn’t be surprised if reece james is the next player to be removed from the “untouchables” list lol
3-4-3 is not a defensive formation, a manager determine what a set up is.
4-2-3-1, 4-3-3 are also used for defensive formation, it all depend on the manager, likeqise 3-4-3 can be a fluid attacking formation.
AS Roma play a 3-4-3 formation and they are an attacking team, Thomas Tuchel played a 3-4-3 in Chelsea and it was an attacking and possession dominance set up under him.
Again, formation means nothing, it's how the manager wants to play matters a lot.
Any formation can be defensive or attacking
