How hideous is it being pressured to look at Robert Sanchez play as Chelsea’s primary each week? He was actually signed from Brighton as their BACKUP goalkeeper, even a 3rd alternative. How mad is that? While you suppose again to a number of the world class goalkeepers we now have had at this membership, then take a look at what we now have now. Makes me sick.
Sanchez continued to indicate precisely what we see from him each single rattling recreation yesterday in our defeat to Arsenal. He first tried to help Arsenal in an early objective by passing straight to them twice. He received fortunate there.
After which, simply as Wayne Rooney completely described on Match of the Day 2 final evening, Sanchez was flat-footed on their objective and will have performed much more to get a hand to it.
The previous England striker mentioned:
“If you happen to take a look at the goalkeeper he’s getting too concerned with the opposite gamers. And he takes a backwards step which suggests he can’t get the elevation to cease the ball going at the back of the online. I believe if he permits himself to and provides himself a little bit of house then he’s entrance footed and doubtlessly would possibly put it aside.”
He’s spot on.
Sanchez is ceaselessly making the flawed selections and mind farting/panicking on the ball. Enzo Maresca instructed us all that Sanchez was his primary. Then just a few weeks later he instructed us all that Filip Jorgensen is now his primary. Then a pair weeks again now he tells us all as soon as once more that Sanchez is his primary. Are you OK, mate?
Apparently Sanchez wanted a while out to type his head out and get his confidence again. Nicely how f*****g reassuring is that for all of us followers and Sanchez’s crew mates to listen to that!?? Jesus.
Sanchez is horrible. I don’t care if he makes a prime save later within the recreation of no matter. That’s his job. However he’ll ceaselessly make extra errors than he’ll huge saves, that could be a truth. Even when the errors don’t result in targets and we get fortunate there, they may at all times result in unforced pressures and that simply places us beneath the cosh.
Per stats web site WhoScored, no participant has dedicated extra errors resulting in an opposition shot than Robert Sanchez (8) within the Premier League this season. Absolute insanity. Ludicrous.
How on earth anybody at Chelsea cannot see this when principally each different single particular person on this planet can is why I cannot take one single one who thinks this severely.
If the house owners need us to again their venture, then signal a brand new goalkeeper and promote Sanchez.
If Maresca needs me to completely again him as head coach, then cease choosing and backing Sanchez.
He really mentioned he was proud of Sanchez after the sport, and the way he continually lies like this in press conferences is without doubt one of the largest explanation why I’m so irritated with the supervisor proper now. If he needs fan backing, he’s not going the fitting manner about it.
I’ll finish with this, what I posted on X final evening…
Anybody at Chelsea who retains backing/choosing Sanchez and nonetheless needs us to take them severely, you’ve received no likelihood. The buck stops right here, the rest is secondary. Till you deal with the goalkeeper place, you’re on an uphill battle.
I FULLY imply this as effectively. And it’s not simply me who thinks like this, I’d say 95% of the fan base do.
You can’t have a calamity on the again and count on your defence to be strong. You’ll solely ever see circus defending and ping pong ball such as you noticed yesterday as a result of defenders acquire confidence by who’s behind them. How can any participant have faith enjoying forward of Sanchez, a participant who wanted day without work to regain his personal confidence!??
