Lukaku didn't want to be there because of Tuchel. Everyone called him a bit ch for complaining and being unhappy but he claimed Tuchel promised him tactics that would suit his style and when he got there, didn't implement them, which is probably true. He doesn't know how to coach forwards properly. And then also he has a questionable relationship with Werner as well.CanaYouDoIt wrote: ↑Fri Jul 29, 2022 5:19 pmNah man Werner and Havertz are just shit. Werner had so many chances , he's just weak and cant finish. Havertz isn't a ST and is falling into the Alli spiral where he cant pin down a position. Lukaku just didn’t wanna be there. Chelsea in preseason have been a mess.RedFootballs wrote: ↑Fri Jul 29, 2022 4:17 pmThey are nothing STs because they play under Tuchel, who's terrible at coaching forwards/attacking tactics.CanaYouDoIt wrote: ↑Fri Jul 29, 2022 3:29 pm
Semi got forced to keep him. They've mishandled it so bad, this new owner has no idea what he's doing.
After Werner and Havertz in preseason showing they are nothing STs (nothings changed) and Lukaku leaving, they are left with no choice but to try him. To me its a no brainer, but this Tuchel guy has a very iffy record with youth and that whole team seems to be in a bad spot right now.
Hopefully Sterling and him can link up. Butttt if Madrid are serious, I'll take that , who wouldn't ?
Lukaku - amazing goalscoring record in every league he's been in (including the Prem with Everton and Man U). Goes to Chelsea and can't score.
Werner - prolific for Leipzig and starts for Germany NT frequently. Looks useless with Tuchel.
Havertz - prolific in goals and assists for Leverkusen being very young too. Comes to Chelsea and can't do either.
Sterling - hasn't scored a goal in preseason yet despite scoring 30 goals a season with City every season.
There's a reason none of their players scored over 10 goals last season in the Prem despite them having several previously prolific forwards. Broja shouldn't stay, if those guys couldn't hack it I don't think he can.
He will look awful in that system and then Tuchel will blame him like he did to Lukaku and Werner.
Sterling only scored 30 goals once, he's a great player so he'll come through but he was in a city squad making multiple chances a game that he wont get here. He has to facilitate for Chelsea, different system.
He plays very negative football that doesn't allow attackers any space and they hardly create any chances, whilst also facing heavily parked buses most of the time. It's a tough team for forwards to play in and I don't blame any of those guys for not scoring goals (except maybe Havertz).
