The first genuine criticism of Frank - he needs to either improve the fitness levels or adapt.
We come flying out of the traps and play some brilliant stuff for half an hour and then struggle in the second half. It'll continue to cost us games if nothing changes.

Probably hasn’t been here long enough to get the level of fitness he wants from the team, we haven’t been a high energy team for years, so it was never going to work immediately tbf to Frank.
The same happened at Liverpool when Klopp came and the same happened at City when Pep came.
If he wants this style it doesn’t make sense to change it now, I think we just have to accept it’ll take time to master.
He’s been a fantastic servant to us, and a great player, but it’s well and truly his time to be moved on now. I’d like him to stay around for experience and to help teach James/Tomori but his game time should be seriously limited.
Other than Hazard's legs playing up every now and again we've never been a team unlucky with injuries. I guess the last few months have thrown that away.
Why would you go into a full season with just one left back tho?
I would have rather picked the best of Maatsen, Castillo, and Baba Rahman to be the back up LB than miss out on the opportunity to get money for Alonso.

I knew it was bad but not bad, christ...
I miss Ivanovic, such a great player! Is he retired?
Pretty sure he’s still with Zenit
Our luck with injuries has been horrific lately.
As expected.

I recall Luiz being terrible that game.
Read an interesting article yesterday that apparently Emerson was Klopps top target before we signed Robertson. Then he got injured and we moved on.
I’ll be the first to admit I havent seen enough Chelsea games to rate him, but the stats continue to show what a player he is.
