I think he was helping Tibo to pack

I see both your thinking on this and to be fair wouldn't be the worst move in the world.......But guys, doesn't this just show up the desperation in our team at present. There was a time when if we needed a player for a position we just went out and bought him. Now we haggle, drag our heels and then find they have been picked up by our rivals.

Karius yes, possibly as a replacement for..................................Morata Well he gets more scoring touches in the box than Alvaro

Because he has an activation clause the papers are second guessing. Our "Board" will be looking at the cheaper options

City, Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal, Spurs, Everton and even Leicester all have top keepers in their squad. And we go for Butland...........Seriously?????? This has to be a wind up!!!

Whereas I agree with everything you said (except I'd lie him to break both arms). We have known about his intentions for a long time now, and our Board have sat on their royal arses and not sought to replace him. The blame for this is squarely with them. And dont be surprised if we face the same with Hazard next season.

Pointless game. Play your intended Premiership team and risk injury. Play a second string and its a waste of time unless Hazard and Kante can use it for a run out. Time on the training pitch is what is needed, especially after watching yesterdays debacle.

Alonso, Zappacosta, Drinkwater, Barkley, Butland..........Seems like we are preparing for mid table mediocrity

Our own Bulka is better than Butland

Thanks mate.......That made me laugh, and after that day I needed something to smile about

Hey mate, calm down. I have never "repeatedly" insulted you. I made a comment on a post you had made and I just didn't agree with it. It wasn't personal and it's the first time I have responded to one of your posts so I dont understand where this "repeatedly" is coming from. I put posts up all the time that other guys dont agree with but I take it in good heart, because at the end of the day we are all fans of the same club. So put your sword away and calm the fuck down.

After today I might just change my mind

Quote from Richard Dunne "Chelsea need a centre forward. Morata doesn't seem to have the desire"

Yes,I agree with you on the domestic fronts this is largely true (except for Leicesters victory and Athletico Madrids performances in past years) .But it is in Europe where you make your reputation.

Yes I agree.........PSG have won it all...Oh no,I forgot they win a mickey mouse league at a canter but do F all in Europe

Just say we had won this game with this side. A lot of people would have been saying we are unbeatable, going to win the league etc.etc.etc. Our problems stem way back into last season we all see them, so dont think that the manager doesn't. But we cannot go out and purchase a ready-made side, it will take time. So relax, give Sarri time and enjoy the ride

The good thing about this defeat is that it has shown up many frailties that hadn't shown up in the previous pre-season fixtures. Plenty of work ahaead for the Boss

Dont think I've seen as shaky a Chelsea defence since the 70's

If they dont want to be here then let them go. Liverpool sold Coutinho and became stronger. We eother buy into Sarri 100% or whats the point of bringing him in. We cannot be expected to match City this season, but given time we may. And stars come and go at clubs all the time, it's never the end of the world

Therefore he needs to be given at least 2 seasons to bring in his players, just like Pep and Klopp were.

So you'll only watch when we're winning? It's at times like these you need to support not desert you club

FFS The season hasn't even started and you are talking about the manager being sacked. Give the man time to mould his own team

What a let off

Pep's lot are really showing us how we want to play. i'm more concerned about our lack of firepower and creation up front. We are not creating chances

Midfield three failing miserably to track back. Way too much room 20 yards out from our goal. At least one needs to track back,
