Bergvall needs a lot of work. His decision-making is slow and questionable.
I mean he chose Spurs over Barcelona, wasn't that a good clue?

Speaking of bad decisions, Dragusin needs to go to a team that doesn't play out from the back, Genoa was much more his speed than Spurs.

Ange continues to be inflexible to his team's detriment, you can play out from the back with Vicario, Romero and van den Ven, but you're going to get killed by a good team if you try to do it with Forster, Dragusin and Davies. I don't know if Spurs crossed the midfield line five times this game, it looked like Barcelona-Eibar out there. Play long balls ffs!!

Also Gray isn't a left back and he's getting absolutely killed there. Maddison I haven't noticed once, Son I've only noticed when he was tripping over his own feet.

Expected result considering Spurs lineup.

Most disappointed in Maddison. He should do much better considering his seniority.

Chelsea came out sleepy, especially CBs Badiashile and Tosin were shaky. And when Chelsea got foward, Joao Felix missed an empty netter from 2 metres, his shot didn't even go towards goal.

Tosin header from a corner makes it 1-0. And minute later Guiu intercepts a pass, goes through and scores the second goal.

It's beginning of a rout now, as Disasi heads in a similar goal goal from a corner than Tosin. 3-0 after only 17 mins.

And Joao Felix makes it 4-0 few minutes later. Clearly these teams don't belong into same competition.

Even Mudryk manages to score a nice goal against this lot...still time for sixth in the 1st half. And indeed it comes from Joao Felix.

They have on the bench a player (Pinson) who got kicked out of the Romanian league for betting. This is Noah's level. Their striker also played relegation playoffs in Romania last year lol

Nkunku has been wasteful today, but now he finally scores on 69th minute...Chelsea's first in the 2nd half.

And he gets a 2nd from the spot.

Nice was bad against Twente, even before Diop got sent off. Dante should have retired or moved to play at a lower level club long time ago. Looks like even when he has a 10 metre headstart in a 20 metre sprint, he gets beaten to a ball by almost everybody. Was having the ball way too much and too involved in the build-up. He wasn't subbed off until after an hour. The only way Bombito seemed to be able to defend, was grabbing an opponent's shirt when he went anywhere near them. Ndombele is not what he once was for a brief while long time ago. Moukoko was invisible and Laborde too selfish. Poor passing all around.

Then with the sending off and substitutions, things suddenly turned much better for them. Cho was lively and Boga had man of the match performance, and they achieved a 2-2 draw. Twente had a player sent off late too.
