Why’s It Taken Poch So Long To Invert Cucurella?! |Chelsea 5-0 West Ham | Fan Cam  

People dogging Poch for taking so long to use the tactics from pre-season. Facts are that certain players needed to develop before those tactics would work in the EPL, especially with Nkunku out. Now Mudryk and Madueke are ready to handle their responsibilities on the flanks and Cole has proven he could take over Nkunku's withdrawn position. Poch has a new team and a young team and he is patiently making them better and better.

Cucurella was injured for a long time this season. So was Chalobah and both players have been key to our recent performances. Why do we forget so easily?

Why do people keep forgetting that Enzo has been playing in pain all this time with taking injection before every single damn game? Chelsea fans were short-sighted reaction fans. Two games before they're chanting Poch out and suddenly the chant change to trust the process. Like what?

Good to see cucu cooking and to have gusto back

Class interview agree with everything that Charlie said we need to give poch time if he don’t do good next season then we talk about getting him out but if we do get 6th like Charlie said that’s a good season is everyone forgetting we finished 12th last season 12th to 6th is a big improvement

You have to build something! You can’t just arrive at an end product We’ve been building this whole season! You have to look past the results sometimes and see the bigger picture

We were brilliant today. Onwards and upwards. Let’s have a full fit squad next season with Poch as our manager! KTBFFH

I said the same. Keep all of those players in . Especially those first 11 with Tottenham and the first today with WestHam keep both set of subs too.

I’d give Reece James one more year to prove he can play a majority of the season or look at selling him

I told west ham fans who insulted me when we lost in their ground to wait till you play us in our ground 😂

Shout out to Badiashile who has made a huge turn in the couple games since Arsenal. Love to see him getting aggressive and vocal at the back, something we haven't always seen from him.

It's taken so long, Charlie, because Enzo's not playing! We're playing better without him...especially Caicedo! Up the Chels!

People forget that cucu is really good on the ball lol he is a baller

This setup/formation and result is what we’ve been waiting for all season It gives us a chance to place players in their proper positions and gives the team the consistency it’s lacked all season Marc Cucurella adjustment is literally the change this team has needed all season

So flippant. 2 games and we’re like : “don’t sell any players, we have all we need”. Give it a few more games

sell gallagher and buy someone else im backing the directors and owners

You all faulting Enzo should know that he has been playing with pain killers for Hernia all season. He was not 💯. Let’s wait till next season to conclude

cucurella shifting to midfield was made possible by the backline of THIAGO SILVA, BADIASHILLE AND CHALOBAH maintaining at the back three all the time,,i love every bit of that

I hope guys we are getting carried away by this two wins and start saying poch in

Maatsen wants to go, pure profit

That fathur cameo tho 🚲 🔔😅

POCH IN!

Definitely keep both Ben and Reece. With Silva leaving, not much experience left in that dressing room. Reece, Chalobah and Ben are the only players left who’ve experienced success at the club by being part of the CL winning side. And Ben’s been good when he played(not a lot admittedly) and only had one bad game this season(Liverpool away). And totally agree about Jackson. Yes, he had a couple of misses here and there, but only 4 strikers in the EPL have scored more goals than him this season + 4 assists is not a bad return for his first season in EPL.

Sell Chillwell and Sterling and loanees Lewis Hall, Ian Maatsen, Lukaku, Ziyech, Sarr then use to Buy Osimehen or Guirassy. Simple

Letting Poch go is like we are going to start from the scratch

Bring James in the midfield after his injury. Won Player of the Year at Wigan in midfield

Wise words!! I’d happily take a points deduction to keep the Cobham boys! Would go a massive way in healing the wounds between the owners and the fans. Keeps a proper Chels culture within the club as well

Another fan who thinks he knows more than the manager.Cucurella was able to do what he did because west ham play a low block and he had plenty of freedom to move into midfield.West ham didn't counter it and paid the price.Against forest next week if they play Odio and Elanga wide with Aina bombing forward from full back,we almost certainly wont be able to do it. West ham were awful today and Chelsea were very good.Madueke & mudryk are starting to understand there roles with and without the ball, Caicedio and gallagher look a more natural fit together in the middle and were also cutting out basic mistakes at the back. Keep the faith with Poch,he knows what he,s doing.a couple of quality signings and better luck with injuries and we can challenge top 4.

If Chilly can go and we keep Maatsen and Cucu, that'll be great

Chelsea will get top 4 next season. It was always going to take time for all your new players to click. They are now.

Thank God Levi is injured. He would have been the one playing LB all because he wants to satisfy him. We wouldn’t know Cucu can play inverted role.

Pretty sure Cucurella was orginally a midfielder before he signed for birghton

Move on Sanchez, Kepa, Chilwell, badiashile, Sterling and the other guys mentioned - should keep maatsen, bring in 2 CBs and a LW and striker

We’re better without Enzo

Cucu showing he is worth the 60 mill

Yes Poch deserves another season

Im not a Chelsea fan but its quite evident to me that they want to sell Gallagher. Money in the bank. They will get a real striker. Trust me.

Best and most rational discussion all year. Hope Boehly is listening.

I don't like this agenda the fanbase has against Enzo. I still appreaciate him as our player and what he brings to the team. You all forget so easily the world class performances he has put in for us. The only reason he lost form is because he was injured not becauese he is a bad player.

I don't trust our owners

I just like this guy he is always on point

Jackson, the highwayman, stand and deliver.

Sterling needs to go

Please I need your response 🙏. Please I believe Enzo should not be in our middle and that cucurella has more energy than him. Am I right?

Champagne footy at the bridge

First prem. league back to back clean sheet this season

It took pep 5 years to get to top poc has been 5mins

Cucurella has been injured a long time.

Galladawg & Chalobah should go NO WHERE!!!! UTFC!!

The answer is Poch is clueless. It took Enzo to go out injured for him to invert cucu. He can also invest Malo to help that lackluster midfield

Trust somebody to be negative after a 5-0 win Charlie is your man 🤬

Back your team and manager Charlie 😂

Best birthday present ever

It about move player to find best position cuorellie how would thought that he good in midfield 😂👏

Big up Charlie

It’s time to move Chilwell on but they won’t do it - I don’t trust the board not to sell key players and stubbornly stick by their under 25 policy

Its just me or poch also doing it with recce james in a match but i forget wich one

Apparently he played midfield when he was younger.

Enzo slows our game down. We play much better without him. He is overated, overpriced and a not necessary purchase. The team play faster and with more freedom in his absence. See how Caicedo is playing like the baller he is.

5:52 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Starting -4 pts cos that’s just Tottenham home and away😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 Facts

What, it didn't take man city 5 or 6 years to win a trophy after the ownership

When lavia come u guys will forget cucu at midfield

Paitence is evertue Things takes time to achieve, Was fergie ? Klopp perfect in their 1st 3/4 seasons ? Answer is nooo !! Poch has taken on alot of responsibilities especially players that ain't his purchase 😅😅😅 It's obviously down to the players now think about it now what players would you sell 😅😅😅 ??? Because these players are now stepping up to the plate ( for now ) with 2 big huge results let's hope it's consistent and things are gonna evolve Most players that has been criticised are now maturing slowly win our remaining games and certain teams drop points ( let's pray ) we could see top 5/6 😅😅 if Chelsea put their minds to it !! The board needs to listen to poch's demands for his players and pay more attention to your fans who make you 🎉🎉🎉 COYBS 🎉🎉

wet spam had nothing to play for

It will be -8 if not more. They have been gagging for doing us over for years.

Not like you've ever mentioned it have you and now poch has your still moaning

Guys do u feel Enzo get back in the team ?

Let's just look for Todd boehlys handle and we all go in his dm

chillwell can play inverted full back too he was doing it till poch stopped him and chillwell is also a goal scorer

Fernandez is even bigger flop than Jorginho, he doesn't deserve to play for Chelsea, lazy one, cannot run, tackle, dribble, simply useless.

This owners should not a mistake by selling this players cornor curcoreler charlober if they that this team will be back to the mot because this team is beginning to click

Love you guys

So long? You guys are brighter

I will make two blatantly obvious points. The first is that the racism of the media is amazing. Last Chelsea game, Palmer missed an open goal with no player or goalie in sight and this game Gallagher missed an open goal with no player or goalie in sight with the and not one negative word was said about them by the commentators. But when a black player has a goal attempt saved by a goalie or makes even a difficult attempt at goal from the edge of the box, the commentators talk about how they should have scored or should have done better, driving fans into negative hysteria against the black players across social media and mocking videos. It's disgusting. When a white player is one on one with the goalie the goalie makes a save, they say the goalie made a great save, as they did with Palmer in that same game against Tottenham, but if it's a black player they say he should have scored and magnify it, digging at him as a failure and then the pundits too go on about it. As for this game, I've been saying since the beginning of the season that Madueke should be playing on the wing as he is obviously an all round better winger than Palmer because he is good not just offensively, but defensively while Palmer cannot not be bothered to do defensive responsibilities. resulting in over 10 goals against Chelsea in 4 or 5 games. With Palmer away from the wings and Madueke there instead in the last two games, Chelsea have produced 2 clean sheets. What we have also seen is that Caicedo looks a better player when Gallagher is next to him doing his part defensively and martialing Mudryk to not forget his defensive responsibilities, and we see a wall of resistance suddenly appearing in front of the Chelsea back line while the backs also get support with no Palmer on the wing as a defensive liability. What is concerning is that these decisions have been forced on Pochettino by injuries and so when the players are not injured he will return to the failed unpredictable system with Palmer on the wing and Madueke on the bench to run from the real question he must ask himself which is which three players midfield should he play out of Caicedo, Enzo, Gallagher and Palmer. The fact is, he has believed that in midfield if Enzo his fellow country man is fit, he must play, Gallagher and all his running too must play and Caicedo with all the defensive help he gives Enzo, Pochettino's countryman must play, so he has to find a place for Palmer and puts him on the wing where he is a defensive liability. Sure Palmer gets goals from their, but he also a defensive liability there that turns the team into an unpredictable defensive wreck making Chelsea lose and draw games they should win. In short, the Chelsea manager must decide if he wants Chelsea to be a mid table team that ensures a lot of goals from Palmer, but concedes too many because of his defensive inadequacy, or a team that is strong defensive and wins games they have been drawing and losing by ensuring Madueke is played on the right wing, not Palmer. A player knowing when and how to attack and when and how to defend and incorporate that into their is a necessary skill and quality to be an effective and good team player, it is not enough to just know to attack, but Palmer has been getting away with that all season, with other players being blamed by the media for the results of his defensive liability when things go wrong, while praising him for being there for goals he manages because he ignores defensive responsibilities as expected of an attacking player in a pub team or in teams long ago, not a professional and certainly not an attacking player in a team that wants to compete in the top 4. This is why Man City did not play him and then sold him. If when injured players return, Pochettino continues to choose Palmer goals over a winning Chelsea team without Palmer on the wings and so with Palmer possibly on the bench because he prefers to keep the defensive success of Gallagher side by side with Caicedo and so Enzo ahead of them, instead of Palmer, then so be it. That is clearly Chelsea's offensively and defensively most effective team and top 4 team and it looks very close to their pre-season team that looked so promising before all the big changes to fit Palmer in. These are decisions Pochettino has failed and struggled to make, refusing to bench his country man and in fear that putting Palmer who the media are obsessed with on the bench would have the media calling for his head, but has only now made because he has had little choice due to injuries. A modern successful team focuses on the bigger picture, not one player as Pochettino has been forced by the media to do. Peace and love

*No Enzo = No Problem*

If reece james gets injuries post surgery. Then sell his ass

8 months? Is that so long?

Sell enzo, mudryk and colwill

Is it Poch out still? Is it Gallagher out still? Fans are real flip-floppers.

Yooo Matt 🫡

Poch Out Hold That Charlie you helmet 😂

Good

Facts..

I went with 3 -0 chelsea kimda lost the bet bur up the chelsea

Because Cucurella isn’t good at football.

Bit boring .

Why? Because Pochettino stubbornly refused to accept that the Caicedo-Enzo pivot doesn't work. Enzo having his surgery has forced Pochettino into the tactical change that has suddenly made us look like a team. So, no, no credit to Pochettino for that.

Chelsea camon

this bloke is talking pony....2.5 games and everything is all good at the bridge. We need a striker ...yes we do and have done since Costa left.. We also need a sporting director who knows what he´s doing ...We´ll sell off the academy players to pay for the fu** ups ...welcome to Chelsea

To me a still poch out He has done more harm than good

This is a silly question. It took this long because Enzo was fit and the situation hadnt arisen for the idea to come up to play Cucurella inverted. Nobody has been saying that Poch had to invert Cucu all season. Its not something that was this glaringly obvious thing everyone was begging for. It's weird to flip this decision around to be a criticism of Pochettino asking why its taken him that long to play him that way.

Second!

First

I ve been saying cucurella was on the list for pep for a reason, i said if we sell cucurella we d be in big trouble look at what we d be without him, there would be no lb😂

Love from Kenya

chilwell : Fitness like Reece Jame, Quality like bakayoko unless we played with 3 ATB

We have players on loan shining up to the roof 🎉🎊✨ We Need to believe in this sets of players we have ofcourse with Poch as Manager

oh boy charlie, when its against burnley and sheffield you were blaming all of them too. especially defenders and managers. now you are calling out for those who disrespect cucurella. duh. we all support the team, there is no need for you to be calling out part of ourselves, its gonna bite you back.

It's taken longer than we wanted but it was worth waiting for!!! Come on the Chels!!

Short memory’s here guys go back to the arsenal game ?
