Hopefully give the manager something to think about. If he doesn't start tonight it really is bad 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 STARTSHopefully Chelsea play a back three again so we can imagine how he'd do in that system for us. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
accies1874 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 The only thing I would say is that strolling it (as he inevitably will*) probably won't sway Tuchel too much. He's skooshed every other game he's played against lesser teams. *hopefully... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tuchel usually plays a 3-4-3, so it would be a back three but a naturally far more attacking one than Scotland play.

charger29 Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 Tuchel: “The other three players are Kovacic, Jorginho and N’Golo Kante. That means it’s not easy for Billy to find his place, but he’s the no.4 right now in my head and to be the no.4 for two positions is a pretty good start for Billy.”Meh. Pretty much as expected. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Lambies Doos Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 He's not doing much out there, needs to be standing out in this game and he's not doing great -2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He also isn't the type of player to stand out by going past players. He is tidy on the ball and keeps possession well. He is more suited to games against big teams where keeping the ball is important. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe not give ball away, he's done that 3 times, plus why shouldn't he run at someone or get up field a bit...He's a midfielder, world class players never show restrictions 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chewing Taffies Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 He is just a young lad trying to break into one of the biggest clubs in Europe. The expectation levels in here are a joke.

He has only played a handful of games at the top level in his life and these have mostly been in diddy competitions. He is nowhere near the level of guys like McTominay or even McGinn. I am sure one day he will be but not for a while. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jambomo Posted February 11, 2021 Share Posted February 11, 2021 He’s not been great but then none of the Chelsea team have been really. Done a few things well (pass for the goal was good) done some badly (giving possession away too much). He probably needs a run of games but I’m not sure he’ll get it at Chelsea. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
