If he puts that last one away he’s one goal off the top scorer. That lob was a poor decision though. Could’ve and should’ve gone round the keeper and made life easier for himself. It’s all upstairs for him. Once he gets some composure he will become a deadly striker.

I don’t see how he’s going to fit into Sarri’s system. Jorginho, Barkley and Kovacic would be a great midfield moving forward (with Ampadu developing). I wouldn’t be against selling Kante to PSG for £150m if it meant we signed some quality in attack.

Unforgivable that lying on the ground shit.

I thought it was obvious I wasn’t referring to this forum as online trolling because he would never read any comments here. Have you ever been on his social media pages? I’ve seen Chelsea fans abuse him, hope he dies/gets injuries, insult his race and family, etc. It’s disgraceful. Nothing wrong with criticising his game as he has been underwhelming so far, but does it always have to be so vitriolic and spiteful? Even when he does something good people struggle to acknowledge it, or they’ll manage to turn it into a negative. I get the frustration. I just don’t get the need for Chelsea supporters to continuously pot our own. It’s a shit read on what is generally a very good forum. But anyway, I think Alvaro will come good and I hope we persist. He makes good runs and finds himself in good positions. I think his poor finishing is largely due to a lack of confidence and is something that will improve in time.

F*** me this thread is toxic. I really hope Alvaro comes good so he can shove it up the arse of everyone on here who has completely written him off. The guy is clearly struggling with confidence and it doesn’t help when our “supporters” mercilessly troll him online and abuse him at games. Is this how we treat our own?

Yes please

Who will be the better player - Stones or Christensen?

Take off the zeros in those numbers and I think we have done well.

Terrible at identifying talent. Terrible man management. Poor team selections. Poor tactics. So what, he got lucky with the league when we didn’t have European fixtures, but now he is taking us backwards.

Conte really is an awful manager.

He will end up at United. Mark my words.

Is this guy even good or is he a flash in the pan? Looked awful against Spurs

He’s done. Will be loaned around to minnow leagues for the next ten years.

Wipe everyone but Azpi, Kante and Christensen. Start again with players that actually care about the club.

The overhyping of this kid is unbelievable. We saw it with Bamford, Musonda, Loftus-Cheek, Baker, Abraham, etc. yet none have made it here as of yet. Wouldn’t surprise me if Hudson-Odoi doesn’t either.

He obviously wants to leave and I’m sure Real Madrid want him, but are they going to pay what we want for him? I can’t see it happening

Play Ampadu as a DM

Won’t happen. Nathan Redmond is more the type we are looking for.

Conte needs to go. We need someone who doesn’t play favourites every game.

Serious question; why are we all of a sudden so financially restricted? Does anyone know? I don’t really delve into the off-field stuff and if I do it’s a quick skim over the occasional article. Is it the new stadium or have we completely changed our whole approach? I really don’t mind what path we take, I will be here no matter what, but I wish the club would communicate more with the fan base. It would be great having some insight into what our long-term strategy is. On top of that, some form of communication may help temper expectations and reduce feelings of frustration throughout transfer windows.

The old Chelsea would’ve...

Lol

We will probably sell Michy and not sign a replacement. We are uncomfortably content with thin squads.

Conte playing Barkley against Arsenal suggests he’ll play Emerson if he’s fit. Whether or not he’s able to play at a competent level is a completely different story.
