Drinkwater's runs from midfield were perfectly timed.


As ridiculous as i thought the transfer was, he really won me over today. If he can be a consistent threat getting into the box, he'll be the missing piece to the midfield. All of them offer really varied skill sets, but that true box to box goal threat has sorely been missing.

Thanks to the geniuses at NbcSports, i spent my entire morning waiting for the replay to post and finally just gave in and watched highlights.

Howd Moses look? His cameo on wed was pretty awful, even for someone shaking off rust.

Barcelona is gonna be rough. I'm sure we were all hoping for Besiktas.

The games are like 10 weeks away I'm sure Alonso will be ready to go.

Is anybody else ready to put Azpi back at RWB and Cahill, TC, and Luiz back in the center? Moses nor Zappacosta bring enough to the table to justify moving Cesar in and putting Luiz on the bench.

Morata just isn’t doing it for me. Chelsea should be able to have a striker that can score with his feet as well as his head. He flops nearly 70% of the time he has the ball. I miss costa.

He'll only get more comfortable and confident. The flopping will get worked out of his game since it isnt doing the trick like in spain.

I think hes been pretty damn good, room for improvement, but hes already exceeded my year 1 expectations.

The most encouraging sign is that his play and understanding with hazard is already picking up where diego left it, and took a couple seasons to find.

But yeah, i miss diego sometimes too. Having a complimentary, viable 2nd ST would make a world of difference tho.

Costa certainly wasn't lighting the world on fire with headed goals. He had 5 PL headed goals his whole time with Chelsea. Morata already has that many and it is only December.

I know costa flopped a lot, but not immediately with the touch of a hand. He fricked with people and punched dudes in th dick and waited on retaliation.

Pretty old guy that likely wouldn’t come cheap. Great player that would pair with Kante and Bak but this feels highly unlikely.

Come on Morata. You have got to be able to finish at least ONE of those chances.
