You can't have everyone start at once so you start the big boys first to see how the kinks are worked out and so forth because they have the money to operate. The other leagues can't operate without a stadium full of fans so they don't play. The Bundesliga and UFC have shown you can put on live events without major hiccups

The reason, the only reason, the EPL is coming back is because of money. Not to pave the way for the rest. Not to test out what may or may not work. Its all down to money.
May 30, 20205 yr Sure thing buddy. Let's just not move on with our lives in a safe environment where every player is tested before they step on the pitch. Not like every other sport is moving in that direction nor are countries starting to loosen restrictions.

June 5, 20205 yr So Timo Werner has agreed to join Chelsea. I'll be honest I know very little about him other than that he's a highly regarded, fairly young player who plays in Germany.

Plays best when he is positioned between the midfield and attack... more of a shadow striker than a #10.

Lovely thank you for that. Chelsea need that kind of player, they need someone who can create and score goals having lost Hazard last summer. He could play behind Abraham I guess?

He could play behind Abraham I guess? Yeah. You want him using his speed. Give him a target man type in front of him and let him wonder around in a free role so that he can burst into space. That speed us really his calling card. He's gotten better at passing, but still, you want him as a finisher.

Will be interesting to see how that fits with Abraham though because it sounds like neither are the creative types.

Pulisic and Willian will fill those roles along the flanks and dipping into the middle. Big move by Chelsea to fill a pretty nasty hole in the lineup.

The label is poppycock.

Overall his season was up and down but he did well when healthy. They need another weapon to help open things up and maybe Werner is the guy.

You need five good guys up top to rotate around. Willian, Pulisic, Abraham’s, Mount, and now Werner. Pedro is the odd man out.
June 7, 20205 yr Plus they can now sell Giroud. Not the best group but a good young set of guns with one older guy in Willian.
June 18, 20205 yr The EPL is back... And naturally its back with more technology problems. Pretty much sums the EPL up.
June 18, 20205 yr Is Man City still banned for next two Champions League? I can't find anything since the appeal back in Feb
