I've barely slept and when I woke up it felt even worse. What a horrible time to be alive...

It can't be worse than Sarri's 😊

Arne Slot would've been my preffered option, but he's off to Liverpool. I wonder how Gian Piero Gasperini would work.

I can't believe I'm saying this, but I will support Spurs with all of my heart on Sunday.

The only chance is to identify someone whose style fits our squad. As said on the game thread, no way we can afford another rebuild.

I am 100% sure that if Poch leaves, we will just get another yes-man and the project will continue. They just went too far with it and can't come back. Look at how much it was spent. The money is gone, no way we can afford another rebuild.

Zero confidence, man. I hate arsenal so much that it scares me and I am terrified that they might actually go ahead and win the league. I also feel like we cannot do anything about it. SO frustrating. Can't even remember the last time we beat them. Sigh...

It's been almost 2 years since we last enjoyed being fans of this club. It all started with Lukaku's interview. We were the leaders of the league before that. Unbelievable.

I would be shocked if we get something out of this.

I hate arsenal and arteta with a passion. So many games won during the last few minutes, it is frustrating. Feckin cnuts all of them.

I think he is suggesting that the PL will also only give us a fine.

We cheated by doing things that all the big clubs used to do before FFP was a thing. Check THIS out, for example. Big clubs have always `cheated` or found loopholes. If something happens to us, make sure the noise will be loud enougo for more investigations to take place and other clubs to be put at risk. People who imagine their clubs are squeaky clean are very, very naive.

Fulham 0 Chelsea 4 It's on, boys! We are back!

Poch is right and I like his approach here. When you play at Chelsea and you're injured, make sure you're not filmed in a nightclub. It's that easy. Just like ten Hag should've known better before publicly talking about Sancho's lack of effort in training. It doesn't matter if you are right, it doesn't matter if you're not breaking any rules. All that matters is to avoid creating problems where there shouldn't be any.

115m for Caicedo is a huge amount of money, but just to put things into context a bit: 1. We had to pay that just because we didn't want to pay 100m initially and then Liverpool came up with 110m on the table. It is our board's fault partially, but at least they tried not to go obscene in this situation. It was impossible. 2. You're not paying the money only for Caicedo. You're paying it to unlock your whole team. Because his profile allows you to change Enzo's role + makes our attack much easier to work. 3. Rival fans are so critical about us spending 105m on 22 y.o. Enzo, 115 on 21 y.o. Caicedo, and 55m on 19 y.o. Lavia. This is a total of 270m. It's a huge amount, but, again, let's put things into context. Liverpool paid 55m on 24 y.o. Mac Allister, 60m on 22 y.o. Szoboszlai and offered 110m on Caicedo. So that's a total of 225 m. At the same time, we've made a total of 12m on Jorginho, 30m on Kovacic, 60m on Mount, 18.5m on RLC. I'm not gonna include Havertz here, because I consider him part of the attack, not the midfield. That's a total of 120,5m. Liverpool made 40m on Fabinho, 17m on Henderson, 0m on Keita, 0m on Milner. That's a total of 57m. Therefore, the net spend for our midfield rebuild would be 149.5m, while they were willing to raise it up to 168m. All amounts mentioned are with ad-ons included. So yeah, this is what it takes to rebuild a midfield, like it or not. It's not the narrative that you'll be hearing from rival fans and virtue signaling journos, but it's the reality of football. It's also exactly what other clubs would do. Look at how much Arsenal paid for Rice, look at how much City spent on Rodri, Phillips etc. Look at how much Casemiro cost United.
