* The Unofficial “Official” Chelsea v Boro - Carabao Cup SF [2nd leg] Match-Night Thread *

Another worldie from the ‘I’d-snap-their-hands-off-for-£5million-he’s-not-good-enough’ Morgan Rogers
 
Neville has done my head in but his analysis has been spot on, Carrick has to learn to adapt his style, I love the football we play but sometimes tactics have to change to suite the opposition as some of our playing staff are not quite good enough at the very top level.

I know we are hammered by injuries but the tactical tweaks / issues have been the same all season in the championship too.

Hopefully we learn a lot from this experience and punishment and take some Intesity into the final few months of the season and give it a good go.

Nor the manager or some of our wanted players are quite ready for the top just yet!

UTB

Changing tactics implies options we don't have.
 
I was just about to say that at least this game might halt the Premier League interest in Rogers, as he's looked out of his depth tonight. And then he goes and does that!
 
Outclassed tonight. 180 minutes was 90 too many given Chelsea halftime was a summer holiday.
We have been outclassed, and there's no shame on that, but I also think we didn't have the belief or confidence to make a real game of it.

We've looked nervous and shaky across the whole pitch. The only one if say didn't look out of place was Rogers, let's hope that's not his last game because he's going to get better and better.
