PaulC Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Bad result for Chelsea. Everton can go within one point of them with a game in hand later. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well let's see at the end of the season. I'll say it now - I reckon Leeds will catch us up and overtake us by the time the last ball is kicked.

They had more of the ball but it was probably around even on decent chances. They certainly didn't batter them, not the impression I've come away with after watching anyway. The striker-less formation just seemed to cause everything to slow down too much when there was a chance to break and Chelsea were very wary of being countered themselves. Werner came on but nothing really changed, Leeds probably had the better of it after that. As has been mentioned very strange move Giroud not being involved as they are notoriously bad form set-plays etc, I think he would have completely dominated their CBs. 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OutByEaster? Posted March 13, 2021 Moderator Share Posted March 13, 2021 Any player that scores a hat trick against Tuchel's Chelsea should be given the PFA Player of the Season award on the spot. Chelsea don't concede goals. Is that two or three in fourteen games? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We also have to play Spurs, Liverpool, Citeh, Everton and United all within our next 6 games. How many points are you expecting from those? Because realistically I'm expecting 1 or 2 at best.

sne Posted March 13, 2021 Share Posted March 13, 2021 Fairly impressive first half from a Bayern Mûnich playing at maybe 70% ability against a Werder Bremen featuring Rashica. 2-0 Bayern who have been dominant and who if they wanted to could run away with it in the 2nd half. They control the game completely and as soon as Bremen tries to put the ball in a dangerous area the instantly have at least 3 guys closing them down and stripping them of the ball. Impressive. Lewandowski has not scored yet and since he's gunning for Gerd Mûllers' 40 goal in a season Bundesliga record I expect him to get a few. Guy has 31 already this season. Rashica has been fairly anonymous but so has every other Bremen player. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In their 10 remaining games Leeds have still got to play Spurs, Liverpool, City and United. Of their last 8 games they’ve beaten only Southampton (who were in the middle of a run of 8 league games without a win) and Palace without Zaha. Within that 8 game run they’ve managed to lose to us without Grealish. We look to have run out of steam a bit but we’re hardly the only team in the league in that position.
