Havertz is exactly who Chelsea supporters and coaches said he is.

Considering that had a bit of intensity, I’ll take the nil-nil vs. City.

I’m assuming he’s using him in the 9 to see if he can get want he wants from him in Jesus’s absence. We know what Eddie and Trossard can do there.

Not too fussed with it. He’s where he needed to be to create those chances. Put it on target, thought should have done better.

He has Wilshire syndrome. His ligaments are made of cotton candy and his bones of balsa wood.


Can you genuinely frick right off? I have never rooted for a player more than Havertz ever so he can prove dumbasses like you wrong. Having Havertz as a 9 helps us overrun the midfield. Havertz up top lets you play Partey, Rice, and Odegaard together. No one outside of City and maybe Liverpool will be able to deal with being overrun in midfield by 4 dudes and 5 when you add Zinchencko and when Timber starts at RB. We don't need Havertz to score like Prime Henry when we share the goal load with 5 players. He wasn't brought here to be a 9 but he did great against City. His pressing along with Odegaard brings zero drop from Jesus and Odegaard, hence the reason he started.

Also, it's Wilshere and Jesus will be back in a few weeks and we have plenty of depth to cover with Havertz, Trossard able to play false 9 and Eddie giving us some minutes there. Also Martinelli practically plays there 25% anyway when Trossard and Jesus are in the team at the 9.

frick off man
