Mike ripping into Jackson
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Mikel*

🚨 Mikel on Jackson: “Unbelievable, stupid stupid stupid mistake, what’s going through his head? He did this at Newcastle and he does it AGAIN” (DAZN)

🚨 Jorginho: “We knew we could hurt them in some areas, but they are secrets” (DAZN)

I think there were too many people defending his red against Newcastle. I was fuming because his lack of brain has been a recurring issue.

He needs to feel that getting a red is the worst disaster possible. Clearly he’s not treating it like a big enough deal. Part of that is from people defending him.

Luckily for us, our game against the Tunisian farmers is 2:00 a.m.

John Obi Mikel on Robert Sanchez:

"I don't think he's a goalkeeper that can lead us to winning titles. If you want to become a big football club, you need a top, top goalkeeper. He's not that guy..."

[via @DAZNFootball]

Yeh really wanted to give Enzo time, but the more I watch this anti football sheet we play the more difficult it is.

And the fact the team has regressed so badly since last year. Palmer has completely dropped off, Gusto barely looks a player and our defence has improved in over a year.........I am sorry I really don't feel like he is the person who will mould our youth for the future, and after today you might need to add discipline to that list cos seriously if there was one player who should not be getting sent off, it's Jackson.

Honestly glad I missed/turned off most that sheet show

*hasnt

I'm pretty sure Guiu never touched the ball for the time he was on... Very difficult to know what we can get out of him. He was excellent in those early conference games, but it was a poor standard

If I were maresca, I would seriously be sending Jackson home tomorrow

Obviously he'll need a chaperone. He hasn't got the IQ to get home on his own

Our bad luck that we are owned by the one VC company that doesn't consider opportunity cist.

If a load of flaws are glaringly obvious in this comp at least it pushes the need for transfers. Sanchez being one

🚨 Cucurella on Jackson red: “Maybe he need to improve but he’s a young player, I think also a bit of luck, he tried to put his foot on the ball” (DAZN)

🚨 Maresca: “I tried something new today with tactics for next season. Flamengo deserved it, congrats to them, that’s it” (DAZN)

🚨 Maresca: “The red card changed the game, it was very hard to come back, congratulations to them,

“Are you concerned about Jackson?”

Maresca: “It was a red card, nothing to say”

Stuffed in the cricket, football and rugby

🗣 John Obi Mikel: "Nicolas Jackson needs to have a look at himself and think where he wants his Chelsea career to go from here.

The manager has brought in a striker in Liam Delap, and now if the manager starts to doubt you, if he keeps making mistakes and letting his team-mates and the club down, then it is time for Delap to start the games."

As much as I moan on about it, I think this transfer window can be a sort of make or break for us. We did well to finish where we did last season in the end, made it a lot harder than it ever needed to be, and with the CL next season, we have an opportunity to start building a solid team, or regress again if the wrong signings are made.

Slightly concerned Santos hasn't had a sniff yet, even if anything but curiosity to see how he does.

If im trying to be fair about it, he is trying to break into our strongest area of the pitch by far. But today it did seem like something diff in midfield would have helped

He heard the criticism that he got too many yellows and decided to change approach

Reality is that Caicedo and Enzo had a strong end to the season, and have had a decent start in CWC, but I would atill expect a cameo at least so far. A bit odd, still time though.
