Today’s Football 2020/21 Season

[TheBigIguana]

thought that was a clear offside

Abraham in front of the ball which is criminal and very lucky

They've just shown a good angle and he looks on. Took long enough for the broadcast.

Good clearance off line that

Atkinson doing what he does and coming to the rescue of a big team with a bunch of pressure relieving free kicks late after not being arsed to blow for anything most of the night.

Chelsea scrape through and live to fight another day, another easy tie next round as well. Can’t stand Tuchel btw, stand still you gimp

Definitely no evidence that Chelsea are any better than before under him.

I've never been particularly impressed by him as a manager.

Same here - think he's good like just not at the elite level.

A not so great article in The Daily Mail today praising Citeh's record-breaking 15 wins in a row.
Funny how it doesn't mention that very convenient postponement of the game against a high-flying Everton when they apparently couldn't raise a team to play us.
I reckon we could have 15 wins on the bounce if we could pick and choose when we play.
Just saying....

No. What they still have done is pretty good.

That's some Klopp rs crap taking 15 games away because of a postponement

Can somebody please explain something to me? in the build up for Chelseas goal Abraham was clearly in an offside position as the ball is played through. he then goes on to score. goal is given. Son in the spurs game v the RS was in the same situation, offside in the build up and went on to score, goal disallowed. this has happened a couple of times since the RS game, I think Rashford was given a goal when clearly offside in the buildup. Am I missing something or has there been a rule change?

it depends on (if any) intermediation happening between the ball's travels from leaving the attacking player's foot and arriving at the goal scorer: if there is none, it is offside, if it is not uninterrupted, that scorer may have subsequently been played onside. VAR decides it...so usually, Manure or RS will get the benefit of any doubt

Not a rule change; that would never have been called offside. Whilst Abraham was in an offside position when the ball was played wide to Reece James he wasn’t affecting play whatsoever. Once James crossed it in it was a different phase of play and Abraham was behind him then so onside.

That was a painful watch last night. We were crap and didn’t look that interested. I’ve not been impressed with our play for months. I assume that Tommy Tookle will have some input in the summer otherwise we’ll be dishing out more of the same next season. We won’t make the top 4 this time. To borrow a popular expression on here, you can vault me on that one.

Hey mate, what is the general Chelsea's fan's consensus on the Tuchel appointment? Are they excited or indifferent to it?
