  • Lampard chooses to play a young and inexperienced team and he is always giving excuses. Win matches experiments later He is very unfair to Batshuayi

  • Lampard should start bat as centre forward ,odoi still very young ,pulsic to star playing, alionso should not be ignored is very experienced

  • Lmpwrd needs to get us solid defenders who are men, and he should allow kante in holding roll

  • I kept saying this all the time, inability to muster a starting eleven has cost Chelsea more harm.
    I see absolute no reason to ultar the team that played Spurs. And using a five man defence against a term you should be easily beating for me wasn't a great idea.
    We love our man and want him to succeed at all cost, all we from Frank is a system that should work.

  • Chelsea has been doing so well lately, and we losing is not a big deal after all. For sure we already own the champion league title believe or not. All hail to coach of Chelsea and we the blues hope to see more of your handwork in the team.

  • I think Chelsea fans are in a hurry, we need to give time to Frank and his young team.
    We cannot compare Chelsea with other teams.
    Firstly those team have bought players, Frank did not
    Secondly, we are still number 4 regardless of losses, who at the beginning of the season thought Chelsea would still be at this position at this time of the season?

    Lastly, those big teams have been rebuilt in 3 to 4 years, who thought Klop team would be the best in England, Europe and in the world?
    I remember how they used to loose all the time.

    Let us be patient and give time to Frank.

    Thank you

  • Lampard is too confident over his selection, why don't he used the starting line up

  • Inconsistent starting lineup. It was a big shame for us diehards see such results especially at home ground. Lampard and his technical bench to blame.

  • If Lampard doesn't try out players in competitive match settings, when will he do that ? No player among all Chelsea players believes he is ONLY good for sub, rather they all feels they have lots to offer, & so deserve a starting call up. I'm sure we've not forgotten so quickly the Hudson Odoi issue that made headlines when he was going to leave for lack of playing time, so all Chelsea fans were angry with management & coach. Today Odoi is performing below your expectations & you feel Lampard made a wrong decision to play him. I only quarrel with Lampard's decision not to place Pulisic on permanent first eleven having got to play much to enable him adopt the tempo of Premier league & deliver positively. Chelsea problem is (1) striker, (2) defenders, & (3) inconsistent midfield.. With Kante, Kovatic & Jorginho, we should have stability in the middle, but why is it not coming off so ? Sincerely we need the CR7, Messi, Mane, Kane, Mbappe & people like Drogba in the squad to guarantee us goals, period.

  • I am disturbed and ashamed of myself and our coach. Useless ideas. You can't satisfy everybody. Odoi is off form, so why drop Pulisic.
