Everyone trying to copy Chelsea system. Koeman tried it yesterday but it backfired badly

Arsenal are picking them.up.on the counter attack. Spurs are a bit naive in their play.

To call them an average team is to do them a disservice, they gave a strong enough account of themselves to be taken serious as title challengers this season, that said I wouldn't have a punt on them at 50/1. Actually winning the league and being in the mix are two very different things.

Spurs were never serious title challengers.

Hang on, how did Chelsea do against Arsenal?

We ain't challenging for the title though, at best top 4.

Rodgers did it three years ago, LVG played it for a while too it's not specifically contes system

Any system will works as long as you have the right players to fit into that system. Obviously teams with better quality of players and with more experience will have a better chance in succeeding.

Going to attempt to post a sensible return.

Tottenham have got the players to play a 3 at the back system and arguably we're doing it all last season with Dier dropping back to give Ali/Dembele free movement.

In Verts and Toby we have 2 top class defenders and Wimmer/Dier can more than hold their own.

Walker and Rose are great wing backs but we fall short with Tripper and Davies as backup

Yeah but it's not people copying a Chelsea system

Obviously not. Bottom half teams have been using it with somne regularity for a while now, the likes of Swansea.

Of course managers have tried it with title challenging sides too. What is more unusual is the level of success Conte has enjoyed with a top 4 club and I'd assume as a primary system.

I'll be honest, when Conte was appointed I thought great manager but I just wish he doesn't try this system with us. I'm absolutely loving it, it is getting results and is just so refreshing to watch.

Good point earned

Spot on

They are just one defeat away from being on a long winless run. Pity we were too poor to hand them the defeat ourselves

Good result for Chelsea and Liverpool in the end.

Boasting after what was obviously a laughable season for Chelsea last year
