these two are a joke….they have been dissing Lukaku regularly since he left United…..now he's coming back they are licking their lips.
I remember Nicol was asked who would you have more….Lukaku or Origi
He picked Origi…………….
Yes Lukaku should replace werner up front.
Chelshit will get slipped to bottom.of the table.
They literally made Seb cry LMFAO 🤣
Spare a thought for Timo Werner! He must be the most frustrated striker on earth! He was brought in for exactly what Lukaku is being brought in for!! All the pundits talk as if he is not there anymore! The guy almost swallowed his tongue when asked who else can Tomas play instead of Werner! 😂😂😂
Love have they were pissed with the Pulisic thing….Just because Pulisic is from America doesn't mean he has to play…
It's so nutty. Liverpool won the CL and finished well behind in the PL…and they were seen realistically on that basis. Chelsea is immune? Now take the club names out of it. A team finished 2nd. Literally 4 more goals and draws are turned into wins and they finish tied for first. They add 2 world class players in areas that were not at all settled and lose nobody.
But they're ignored while the team above them essentially traded a aging top player for a top player (in a different role) and the team behind them sign a striker they were desperate to get rid of just 2 years ago and because he looked great in an obviously lesser league, suddenly he's a game changer…alright then. You know how Lukaku will be different than Werner. When Lukaku misses a chance, he'll demonstratively blame the service and if he doesn't immediately get another chance, he will sulk and stop making runs
"Lose almost your whole back line" lfc fbs didn't miss a game. They lost 2 cbs. FFS stop making excuses and making it out like the whole team was injured. Lcfc had way more injuries. City the year before had way more injuries.

Seb was born to be bullied here
Timo Werner stress his opponents.
I also think Chelsea need better defenders and goalies they are taking advantage of us.
Seeing pulisic yesterday too I've noticed something and im pretty sure most of u notice this alot too Pulisic needs to learn to take a shot as soon as he has a chance he tries too much skills and fails to even shoot but its weird cause last season he was unbelievable done 1 or 2 step over's then blasted his shots and scores some quality goals and assists I've not seen that pulisic much this season and I love him but I wanna see some of that lockdown pulisic back and also this game yesterday was tough cause it's just after pre season our players were all tired their just getting started but atleast we won we can't just blame werner here
No need to add 'DESPERATELY! Like yes we need a striker but we did win the UCL with Werner at striker let's not take this game too seriously its after PRE SEASON it's not like the players are gonna be 100%
ESPN for Gods sake leave Werner alone Lukaku will make him better, those two will be just fine.afraid ESPn are becoming very Fourth Division.
Crocodile tears 🤣🤣🤣🤣….lay off already with you Pulisic groupie 😆
If Werner form back from Leipsk + Lukaku pff Chelsea attack can be the REAL DEAL.
What will happen if lukaku gets injured?
i will ask this journalist to watch all chelsea goals even the champion league final if Timo didn't open space for Havertz to score 1 win goal may be chelsea couldn't not make it. There's lots facts u should analysis.
Werner is a winger not striker. I hate when players are not used how they should be used. Werner constantly proved last year he cannot finish consistently.
What nonsense about Ziyech!!!! A friendly match? Just a super cup!!!!! He and Kant left the field and the team was immediately a lot less! It seems like you in England suffer from amnesia! Ziyech hadn't played for 9 months and went to a better competition in a new team and immediately had 2 injuries and also a coach change!
Haha ESPN is definitely keeping a lot of patience on this stupid anchor.
Timo should be sold on loan to a German team were he can play well. Honestly he isn't sure on what to do whenever he is playing. This coach needs to be playing Abraham, at least he is better than Timo
So no other player could be instructed to run. There are other players who could get to play, but its like some excuse need to be pulled out to justify it. CHO can run…but he isn't used.
Won by default there last night. 30 mins in the second half Villareal bossed them and should have been a couple of goals up. First victory in 10 v Spanish clubs in CL finals, Europa finals and Super Cup matches for a PL side. Chelski the new UNCONVINCABLES. Was a poor CL final, hopefully Bayern and now PSG can get back to winning it.
Warner is great
Timo will always be in my team least. His runs create confusion for defenders, and it's one of the reasons teams are always conservative against Chelsea. He's the best player without a ball, Simply unmarkable.
This is soo stupid how can you say something like that about werner… even the champions league final too the goal was created because of werner… he had the most assists last season for chelsea. No chelsea fan will ask that question why Timo is starting coz we understand the importance of Timo in the team.
The knob in the pink coat on the right… fulloshite
Chelsea will be third behind Liverpool and city …. in that order
Can't wait for the Werner haters to eat their words
Werner sucks!
do these guys call football soccer?🤣
Romelu Lukaku will score at least 25 goals, but Mark my words he will screw over Chelsea like he did United! He choked for United so many times
Lmaooooooooo the pulisic bit
Lukaku is great but he is not technical thats why he fail last attampt with MUTD. But best whish for him… best of luck…
Chelsea circus welcome lukaku the clown 🤣
Hard to win the league title and CL. takes a lot of luck.
BOLINGOLI9 IS HEREEEE
I feel like chelsea have a soup full if talent up front. But they did need some meat. Hence Romalu comes in. However if they win consistently, it will still be with defense. Not by blowing the scoreboard.
The chances werner missed last season was unbelievable but he also showed signs of his true potential he will make his comeback soon and play brilliant
6 in 35. Any other team would have dropped him. Pulisic has his ups and downs but overall he is a much more exciting player to watch and creates so many more chances then verner. – Are these guys seriously defending verners performance. Unbelievable.
Seb is clueless. Every video I have seen of him is …. Pulisic this… Pulisic that. The dude needs to chill out… ffs
Timo Werner might miss seaters but he is a very effective player. Last season he scored 10 goals and provided 18 assists. He won the Champions League and he does what's right with his movements to help the team. His movement helped Chelsea score the winning goal in both UCL and Super Cup.
Frank puts it well.
hahahaha "what do you think this is, football Americas?"
Lukaku is something for these guys to talk about for few days that's it
This stevie fella just looks so uncomfortable when they start talking about Chelsea😂😂😂
Waste of money. lukaku wasn't good enough to Man united
desperately needs…. espn experts are just a joke
