I watched the press conference and he said to come in mid season and completely change everything is crazy, he’s sticking to what the players know, apparently there isn’t much training going on at the moment, he said it’s play recovery play, could be a factor in why we generally look the same

He used to be cold, now he’s cooked

Reading this thread you would think we are the ones 2-0 down, pathetic

Not right good at that either, I ain’t laughing

The bench

Isn’t palmer out for this game pal?

Lads dead to me

I don’t believe that to be true and I hope it isn’t, players have strengths and weaknesses like any one else, this team isn’t good at slow buildup possession boringly mind fucking numbing football, we have players like Steve and garnacho on the wings, these don’t wanna be passing back to centre back they want to run at players, same with delap he’s a unit shit house, he wants something to run onto not at his feet constantly, I fear the problem isn’t the players not been good enough, more the owners have a style of play they want to play, but are not buying players for that type of play! Which in its self it’s stupid as fuck! Which makes the manager role even harder because you have a style of play the owners want your style of player but give you fucking no tools to do it, like asking a plumber to come fit you a bath room and all he brings is a chain saw

I suppose it could be how any new business/plan starts, you have to spend money at the start to make money, any new business almost makes a loss on the first few years until its becomes self sufficient, would make sense at the start to buy a huge amount so you can start the revolving door, think as these players as stock, we should by now have the stock and hopefully we see less and less youngster bought simple to sell and not to play

Obviously its same as the loan army except its instant profit, my point from the start is that isn’t why we are, fans make out we are only here to make profit and win nothing, but nothing supports that argument apart from the fact clubs have to make profit to be able to operate

I prefer him starting 🤣 I hate seeing him come off the bench

Your getting fringe players and first team players mixed up, players Bought for the first team go in it, the young lads get loaned out or sold on after a year or so because they were never meant for the first team, that doesn’t make us only a club that after profit, it’s just a way of sustaining it

You realise the whole reason we got a point against Man City was santos? He came on and changed the game so much

Similar can still be very different, he likes a high press (similar) he also likes to attack quickly and not fuck about with the ball (different) those players you name are probably more suited to play fast attacking football than pass the parcel like we have being doing, at Strasberg he played 3 ATB but he only did that because he couldn’t play 4 ATB with the players he had, which shows another difference he will adapt the team and formation for what’s best for the team, not what he thinks is the best way to play

Half of them wasn’t even bought to sell though, and the rest bar chuka no one have two shits about or wanted them gone? All you hear on the radio rival fans this forum is all Chelsea do is buy young talent and sell them for profit!! We haven’t sold enzo we haven’t sold James cuca palmer gusto etc, yes we buy young players and sell them on, but players we normally buy for the first team the majority are still here
