Great game. You can tell the young guys have played together for years. If Kante continues to develop a shot, holy shit. Nice to see bats and puli do there thing at the end of the game.

Man I'm still buzzing about yesterdays game. Expected to find some chatter on here about how the young guys played, or how pulisic got some time and produced or even something about Rudiger potentially coming back next game, but alas, nothing. sadpanda

Here's some random stuff from the past 24 hours.

Before the season started we were in a very ambiguous position. Now that we are rolling into October, who are you guys most impressed with from the Academy players? And who do you think will be the most impressive at the end?

Mount

Tammy

CHO

Tomori

RLC

Reece

 

For me Tomori has shocked me how good he is. I really was questioning letting Geezer go and depend on Christensen, Zouma and an injured Rudiger.

At the end of the season, I think it will end up being CHO. He just came back but has already made a huge difference.

It's hard to say, but, regardless, I'm excited as hell because they all look so good.  Crazy thing is, in addition to Tammy being tied with Aguero for most goals, Mount is tied with Salah in 10th and is one goal behind guys like Kane and Mane.  They are young as hell, but are already performing with the best in the league.  And as they get older they will not only be getting more experience generally, but they will be getting more experience together.  Think of how good they will be in 5 years when they've been playing together for that long and are still only in their mid-20s.

Haha, had forgotten about this. One of the best kit launches imo.

How did the squad look today? I need to start getting up earlier on the weekends to actually catch these games. 

1-0 isn't exciting but a win is a win! Lampard seems to have the ball rolling in the right direction.

We dominated the game and possession. Shouldve won 3-0, but most importantly got the 3 points with a shutout.

Damn - .20 eG is definitely a solid shutout. Do you think it was the best the D has played all year?

Also - do you like Pulisic trying to find a spot in being a super sub? I kind of do until he gets his legs under him a bit more in the EPL. He's clearly up to the task - anyone saying he's being outclassed or not up to the competition are kidding themselves. He makes world class plays given the chances. But - 70-90 mins might be a lot for him right now. Maybe 30 mins a game is his calling card this season.

Definitely on the defensive effort.

Also Pulisic played great and has a future with CFC imo.

I agree man. His assist to Tammy the other week and his setup today were plays that you just can't teach. He sees the field at an advanced level. Hope his physicality and decision making follows in suit because he has the chance to be a really special player. Staying at Chelsea the rest of his career would (potentially) give him the chance to be a legend. No American has ever approached and played the game the way he does. 

Nine games into the season and we are sitting in 4th place (thanks to Arsenal losing the Sheffield), two points back from 2nd place.  That's much better than I would have thought possible considering our injury issues, transfer ban, and losing Hazard.

They would have needed to win by 3 goals to tie us for 4th. We have a +5 GD to their +1.

I'd add in our unproven manager. Just an interesting season all around.

If they won, they would have been at 18 points and hopped both us and LC into 3rd.  A tie, and we would be ahead by a point.

Poor man management by Lampard in starting CHO today.  He's clearly tired and his legs are not doing what he wants and expects them to do.  I get that it's CL, but CHO coming back from injury and having played in 5 games over 3 1/2 weeks is not better than Pulisic who's played something like 60 minutes over that time span.  

This would be a huge boost for our boy if we can hold on to the lead.

Hell yes, draw between Valencia and Lille.

Crazy day at work but sounds like we put in a solid game and deserved the win. Great to see Captain America to Batman for the win.

We should have won about 3 or 4-0, but we missed a few sitters and CHO clearly didn't have the legs.  With the exception of an Ajax goal called back by VAR for offside (correct call), Ajax never really felt threatening.  Our D was actually solid.

Fuck yeah.  Goal in 90 + 5 for the tie.  Thanks, Lille.

Just a bit of injury stuff - most quotes prior to Ajax game.

Rudiger

"Rudiger is training outside with the physios, which is a progression for him," Lampard told reporters. "He has had a tough injury, stop-start which has been tough for everybody. But he is outside, which is positive. A bit of work for him to be done for match fitness, but it is positive for us that he is outside."

Christensen

"Andreas has a hamstring injury that will probably see him out for the next two weeks," Lampard added.

Emerson

"Emerson is going to be the other side of the international break with the hamstring injury," said the Chelsea boss. [Prior to Brighton]. He was in training on Wednesday.

RLC

"Ruben we can’t give a date but he is outside jogging slowly," he said ahead of the Brighton game. "That is a positive move for this week, good to see him outside and we will see how that goes over the next weeks."

Kante/Barkley

Both missed training prior to Ajax, Kante for a groin and Barkley for an ankle. "Ross will hopefully be fit to train on Thursday. ‘N’Golo is training again but it’s not clear whether he will be fit for the weekend or not."

Oh Captain My Captain

This is pretty fucking fantastic 

Is that one with the left, one with the right, and one with the head (Perfect Hat Trick)?

If we’re being precise, it was the back of his head.

I've definitely had less fun watching football!

All season long our defense is gonna give me heartburn

highlights of Gallagher if anyone is interested, one of our young loanees. Not sure there is room for him, but doing well.
