GWT: EPL - Matchweek 34 (ft. MW 29)

[KJS14]

Cucurella vs Saka is not fair. What a mismatch.

He bit so much on Saka's first move that he accidentally ended up blocking the ball when Saka tried to cut back.

It's 4d chess mate

Defending is an upside down bell curve. If you're bad enough, it's actually unpredictably good. Just don't be average I guess.

 

[hatterson]

Kai should've been off for going down easy inside 10 seconds so it levels out

I'm actually curious if the ref would still give out a yellow for simulation if the offside flag goes up in a situation like that.

It obviously still *should* be, but it wouldn't surprise me if in a situation like that the ref would start to reach for his pocket, have the assistant tell him the flag was going up, and then not grab the card.

You don't get a red for that, but regardless, it was ruled offside, so it wouldn't have counted

 

[Peen]

saka cucurella is a theoretical ginormous mismatch but it absolutely hasn’t been that way so far.

 

[Savant]

It's a shame that we didn't get to see him get pocketed by Gabriel and Tomiyasu today

I mean, I still wouldn’t have watched. Chelsea ugly enough on the eye test with Palmer in. Unless he has Covid or something it’s shocking that he didn’t play in this game.

Also, and I am going to defer to the Chelsea fans on here, I would have severe questions about the compatibility of Enzo with Caicedo. I feel like their record when they both start cannot be good. Granted Chelsea aren’t good as a whole so it might not matter, but speaking of eye test i haven’t seen a game where I thought they’ve played well together

 

[Peen]

where is chukwuemeka man play him

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Arsenal are doing whatever the f*** they want. Flattering scoreline so far.

The biggest mismatch is on the other side. Which is understandable given the lack of experience for Gilchrist and the absolute lack of help he's getting from beside him.

Doesn’t help Enzo is on the right side which means there isn’t much defensive support

And Madueke is a useless guy as well on that side

I still think Disasi should have stepped up on Rice on that goal

 

[KJS14]

It would be nice if we could just convert some of these chances, go up by a few goals, and then spend the entire second half feeding Havertz the ball like a peewee hockey player so that he can score a hat trick on maybe 15-20 chances

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Which makes the half chances we've had all the funnier

We're getting battered and yet conceivably could be level or winning with different bounces LMAO

Disasi please stop enabling the overload on Gilchrist

 

[Spring in Fialta]

Havertz is particularly bad today. What was the point of playing that advantage?

Idk why none of his teammates went up with him

 

[hatterson]

lmao Jackson

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Gally is the best player on earth Nico why

 

[JeffreyLFC]

Wtf Jackson. I swear the quality of finishing by every striker in the EPL is shockingly bad.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

Mudryk does amazingly to get ahead of his guy to win that header and then sends it backwards

An idiotic yellow for Cucu

 

[hatterson]

Wtf Jackson. I swear the quality of finishing by every striker in the EPL is shockingly bad.

He acted like he was scared he ball was going to hit him in the head...

 

[bluesfan94]

Chelsea's pace is dangerous, but their execution leaves a lot to be desired. Then again, Arsenal hasn't been clinical in the final third either.

 

[JeffreyLFC]

He acted like he was scared he ball was going to hit him in the head...

He looked suprise that he is football player.

 

[bluesfan94]

Trossard getting a yellow for stepping on a foot - fine, agreed. But Jackson got nothing for going studs up into Tomi's ankle.

Make it make sense.

 

[Wee Baby Seamus]

This game is absolutely gonna get out of hand

 

[Peen]

Madueke is so bad
