re: Chelsea 2024/25 Season-Long Thread: The Enzo Era Begins

Some observations from today:
- 3 points earned is huge. Blues had to win today because of what we have left (Liv, New, MU, NF). Maybe Liv will secure the EPL today and play scrubs against us? Wishful thinking I know.
- Sanchez was fantastic today. Credit where it is due because I’ve been trashing him all season.
- as good as we are in the midfield with Enzo and Caicedo (and they were very good today), Lavia strengthened it. He’s not an offensive player but our mids controlled things today and he was a big part.
- proud of Madueke who sometimes forces things and sometimes disappears. He actually played defense today and we need all 11 to play defense to beat anyone.
- good on Jackson for ending his drought. Really beautiful turn and shot. He played some good defense today as well.
-Palmer is not a factor at all. His form is poor right now and may be hitting a wall.
- Colwill and Chalobah were good today.
- Neto is so fast and dangerous. But he didn’t have any crosses today and therefore we had a poor attack.
- Cucurella was superb again. Where would we be without Marc?

No telling how we’ll end up but the guys are fighting. I hate our posture after taking a lead (possession, taking air out of the ball) because one brain fart can cause an equalizer (and almost did) and we are still limited offensively but we are still fighting for Champions League with a month to go. Let’s win Conference and have that as a fallback.
