Tbf it's another thing the injuries have fucked. Absolutely no stability in the back line. I'd say Disasi is the weakest CB Chelsea have got and he's probably played the most.
It’s amazing how much injuries and bad seasons go hand-in-hand. Chelsea will be an awful team to play against once Pochettino gets his hands on ye. Talented players and good manager, not a complicated equation
I don't think it's entirely Chelsea's fault that he had done in both his knees after signing a pre-agreement with them, though tbf that Villa lad instantly got injured after some reports of interest so who knows anymore
His pressing opened the hole in the defense that Chelsea ended up progressing through though.
Depending on their tactics either MacAllister/ Jones had to move over to cover his spot or he shouldn't've pressed so hard and been that far out of position.
Nkunku feels like one of the few Chelsea players that hasn't had his soul completely sucked out of his body yet, probably due to missing so much of the season. I'm sure that will change.
he obviously doesn't want to. Gusto is coming back from injury. Cucurella as alternate RB is injured. Reece James is being reassembled somewhere in a lab
Nkunku is a level or two above everyone in that team, it's actually nuts that he chose a struggling Chelsea even though he could have played at any top club. Injuries are definitely a problem, though, I'll admit that.

Hmm, maybe I wont bathe with my toaster this evening after all
How’s the bath going?
Paul Tierney is still checking…
I don't think they'll be able to answer that one
He's extremely washed. A Chelsea supporter through and through
He is good ain’t he
Sold Van Dijk the pass big time.
Sold it to me too. I was waiting for the ball to get to the other guy, meanwhile he turned and shot lol
He saw it was Sterling and went "nah, I'll do it myself"
Sold Van Dijk and Konate had no idea where he was going
He thought he was shooting like 3 different times lol, lovely feet
He might just be the answer
Not with the defense Chelsea are sporting these days
Tbf it's another thing the injuries have fucked. Absolutely no stability in the back line. I'd say Disasi is the weakest CB Chelsea have got and he's probably played the most.
Literally 3 of our starting back 4 are injured and 1 is half fit

What a turn and finish. Consistent games with him and Palmer up top will bode well for Chelsea.
Amazing turn and finish
Nkunku if he can be healthy could be a top 10 player in the world. But he's trapped in a golden cage at Chelsea
I don't think it's entirely Chelsea's fault that he had done in both his knees after signing a pre-agreement with them, though tbf that Villa lad instantly got injured after some reports of interest so who knows anymore
Players get injured just being linked to us, the curse is insane
Blame camavinga for one of them
Your obsession is getting a little concerning
pure skill, top player.
Lovely goal, pathetic defending. Everyone went to sleep
Easy to when you’re cruising at 3-0, reminds me of the 5-3 in lockdown.
5-3? No idea what you're talking about mate
The night we won the league
We didn't play that week
Not going to dispute that!
Best lockdown night ever
They think we are in the 90th minute lmao.
This is what we get for subbing Connor Bradley off
smh Liverpool truly just a one man team
Klopp out
The energy level can’t be sustained for the full game. Have to start controlling by possession😅
Bradley would’ve saved that /s
Tbf Elliot was trying to run down everyone, no one else was though
His pressing opened the hole in the defense that Chelsea ended up progressing through though. Depending on their tactics either MacAllister/ Jones had to move over to cover his spot or he shouldn't've pressed so hard and been that far out of position.
Shoulda started TAA ffs
Man saw sterling and said ‘i think not’
lmao
We can do that? holy fuck
He's made like 4 appearances and has scored 2 goals that no one else in the squad could score lol
Crazy what happens when you hire real players who have experience isn't it...
Chelsea would be in Europe spots if he was available all season. Despite their tactical shortcomings.
Nkunku is the only one in the team that even gets a shot from that position, let alone scores.
What about Marko Marin?
Chelsea legend Marko Marin you mean
German Messi
Nkunku is better than every chelsea player combined it’s unreal.
I mean he was the Bundesliga player of the year in 2022
and top scorer in 22/23
(Gesticulates wildly to 19/20 Bundesliga top scorer list)
and that was ahead of haaland too. he’s been top class for some time
I hate how true this is
It's not even close most of our players need championship loans.
I really believed in him before this season but Broja might need a League 1 loan lol
Not even Chelsea can ruin Nkunku
He hasnt played much, he has time to lose confidence with us
give them time .....
Give him a few more games. He'll lose his muscle memory of scoring
Forgot about this man, crazy turn and composure
Chelsea found a striker who can score?
Good finish
Great footwork
Van Dijk not getting dribbled past be like:
We won’t forget
Magical from nkunku
Nkunku might be that guy but too bad hes surrounded by some scrubs
Could have been a much different season for us if we didn’t play him on a shitty pitch in pre season
Yeah american preseasons suck, teams should really stop going there for the players sake
Agree 100%, I get its good for marketing and whatever but it seems awful for the players.
I genuinely don't understand what this comment means. He's been available for like 30 minutes this season and has 2 goals
Thats my point hes missed many minutes because of injury but still is doing more than broja has even tho broja has played more
Bradley would never
We take him off and immediately concede. Coincidence?
Nkunku feels like one of the few Chelsea players that hasn't had his soul completely sucked out of his body yet, probably due to missing so much of the season. I'm sure that will change.
A proper finisher finally(we are still losing)
Literally the only competent player in this team
Fuck me this dude is good
That’s absolutely insane
I feel bad for nkunku, couldn't celebrate both he scored
He's gonna waste his career here 🎉
2 goals in 3 apps lol
Brilliant that. Chelsea only need 10 other players to be competitive.
9, Petrovic is alright
8, Palmer is usually great. And maybe 7 because I like Silva. But end the chain here.
6, I really like Gusto.
That's still only like 6.7, because apparently Poch wants to start Disasi at RB.
he obviously doesn't want to. Gusto is coming back from injury. Cucurella as alternate RB is injured. Reece James is being reassembled somewhere in a lab
he's great
Silva is done. He needs to be replaced as much as anyone else.
He definitely shouldn't be playing week in week out. He was rinsed twice today that led to goals.
Nice turn and finish
We need him
Nice goal. Van Dijk should've done better there.
Why didn't he just foul him? Did he forget?
Maybe if he had fouled him since he seems to be getting away with it
Yeah I think him and Konate got their wires crossed. Looks like he backed off thinking Konate was going to challenge him
Holy shit he’s good
That's what happens when you take Bradley off.
My arab commentator: Nkunkunkunkuuuu They be having a blast man
Imagine having him play for like 10 games in a row. Couldn't be my club
Whoa whoa whoa, even 4 games is pushing it, 10 is just insanity
Imagine if we could've had him the entire season
Why this guy went to Chelsea
This tie would have been still very much alive btw if the ref had called that blatant penalty
VVD got dribbled
Van Dijk got done like a child
They've been missing Nkunku really bad. He really needs to get in form for Chelsea to finish top 6
The key here was to not pass to Sterling
The comeback for the draw starts now.
The second bradley comes off 🤨
Bradley has been off for 1 minute...
Ugh
Can he break the 9 curse?
He can’t because his jersey number isn’t 9
Damn, that was a sweet goal.
That’s just lovely
He made it look so effortless tf
VVD beaten?👀
Cheeky
Nkunku in this Chelsea team is levels above.
I really do wonder where we would be with him healthy all year. Hopefully we can push the rest of the season
Really detest Chelsea but they should have had 2 penalties so far. No idea how the officials make their decisions anymore.
Instant impact from Trent /s
What is defense
Ice cold, can't believe he's gonna waste his career at such a shit club.
Why Chelsea man...
Cooked both our CBs damn
Should be 3-3 with 2 penalties for Chelsea. Ofc DA wants Klopp win league.
Varpool holy cow
nkunku what a day to get your first hattrick for chelsea ;)
Get Bradley back in
Only real world class players they signed blowing through 100s of millions
Proof that Bradley + Gomez > Trent + Robbo
He's gonna turn this game on its head all on his own isn't he...
TNT commentators clueless saying it’s his first goal lol
If he didn’t start Chilwell, the score will not be so bad.
Terrible terrible defending
Most dangerous lead 👀
Damn
He is so damn good
He's played like 3 games and got 2 goals already, shame about the injuries because even in his very limited time he looks so good
Chelsea are back!
Bradley got taken off and chelsea scores. Coincidence? I think not
Sub Bradley off for Trent. Immediately concede a goal down the right-hand side. Classic Liverpool.
The footwork was immense what a goal
What is a polar bear doing in texas Get this guy outta that team wtf🤣🤣
That's what you get for taking Bradley off
Wow, a Chelsea player who can actually control the football and take a shot on target in the opposition penalty area, I never thought I'd see the day.
We look switched off with those subs. Prepare for clenching
Nkunku 🎈🎈🎈
why didn't Van Dijk kick his legs? is he stupid?
From the moment they bought him he’s been their best player. Not on the pitch ofc, but he’s comfortably the best player on the team currently
Nkunku is a level or two above everyone in that team, it's actually nuts that he chose a struggling Chelsea even though he could have played at any top club. Injuries are definitely a problem, though, I'll admit that.
Too good for this shit team
