Let's hope we still get a summer 2019 window!

I hope you do not think I am Mount-bashing, but his form hasn't just declined, it has disappeared. One goal in almost 6 months for an AMF is unacceptable. He has played 2,789 minutes as well so far, so it isn't like he is a part-timer.

lol, based off WHAT???

At this point, Sarri will stay, especially if we get the bans starting this summer. The massive CHO damage by him is already done, I will be SHOCKED if he renews. Zero chance he will if the old smoker is still in charge. That will be a massive blot, more than likely, on Sarri's legacy with CFC. The truly crusical decisions we have to make are Eden and CHO IF we get no 2019 summer window. Do we force them to stay and walk on frees or do we sell them and just take the hit for all of the 2019-20 season?

Agree with most, but Mount and perhaps Tomori do not look ready at all for first team, especially Mount. He is far too frail and will get bullied at EPL level. He has regressed in play over the past several months judging off the games I have seen. ONE goal since September, none this year.

Don't know CHO's contractual situation??? FFS The lad is out of contract in June 2020 and has put in a transfer request to go to Bayern, who, from the top on down, have PUBLICLY said they are going to get him. In terms of professionalism, and definitely pointing a finger in regards to our board, I think the footballing end over the past 4 or 5 years speaks for itself. Massive blunder after massive blunder, in terms of both poor buys and poor sales, as well as horrid contractual management. We are the worst run top 20 club, from a pure footballing perspective, over the past 4 or 5 years. Not to mention a track record of breaking FIFA rules that has now manifested itself in the form of an officially announced (and disastrous, especially if we do not get a summer 2019 transfer window, which is, at the moment, a definite potentiality) 2 window transfer ban.

Pedro and Willian have had a shit tonne of bad games where I have so wished CHO had either started or at least come on at HT or the 60 minute mark. Many of the times that was impossible because he was not even ON THE BENCH. He is statistically outplaying Jadon Sancho (who is same age, reportedly going for £80m to £100m AND who would be yet another POTENTIALLY good player with NO playing time if he was under a Sarri-type cosh here or at some other club) in the EL, yet some on here continuously slate him as 'not even a good player'. One of the top global clubs, and a club that is notoriously cheap, Bayern, have offered 40m quid for the lad. You don't toss around that type of cash if he is a marginal performer and not even close to 30-somethings Pedro and Willian. It is impossible to remotely give a fair assessment on him in terms of a league player when he has been on the pitch in EPL games for a grand total of 74 minutes. That is a ridiculously low number. Chelsea youngster is outperforming Jadon Sancho in Europe, stat shows https://www.chelsea-news.co/2019/03/callum-hudson-odoi-highest-performing-teenager-in-european-competitions-this-term/ I wasn't here then but I would almost GUARANTEE the same type of mentality that drives a lot of CHO-slaters was manifest in regards to de Bruyne and Salah. I think it is short-sighted and reeks of status quo setting and normalcy bias. Same bullshit schema that the board operates under, much to our teams detriment.

LOL, whatever bruv. You have NO clue about ages obviously. Interested to know what makes you think I am so younger than 27. I come on here to blow off steam, and I don't have to turn every single colloquy into some meticulously rigid formal academic debate. If you want to go that route, then by all means, we can take it to that level. I think I already do a pretty fucking fair job of documentation when it comes to most subjects. I have previously shown that Sarri and Magic Box have consistently pushed and posited a false line and over-arching memes about CHO vis a vis other teen players in terms of minutes played. Sarri yesterday said CHO wouldn't even be good, top player for 4 or 5 years. Ridiculous. All you have is shade, btw, when it comes to dodgy insults, and trying to slag me off, and the sun's coming up, not going down. I never went after you on a personal level. You should show the same respect.

If we get the shaft on the summer 2019 window, we may need Bakayoko (eeek) or Kenedy (meh, and not a good fit for Kovacic replacement) too. Either one of them or we will have to use Drinkwater (shoot me now). If Luiz leaves we might have to recall Zouma or even promote Tomori.

Bullshit, I have followed football (Chels mad father) since I was wee toddler. I am now 27, you can do the math (I hope.) Grew up a little over a mile from the Bridge, (South Kensington.) We walked straight down Fulham Rd to almost every game we went to, unless it was pouring rain. Accusing people who disagree with you of not knowing much or being some noob punter is weak as fuck. Shows an insecure personality IMHO, as you fall back onto ad hominem instead of cogent, rational discourse.

wifey (she follows the ponies, it bores me to tears) says Clan Des Obeaux https://www.racingpost.com/profile/horse/899165/clan-des-obeaux/form

I dont find any humour in the situation. Sarri's treatment of CHO has been shameful, especially the continual lying. It is a massive deal that we are losig our best academy product in years due to an foolish, stubborn manager's prerogative when it comes to game time. Long after Sarri is sacked, his running off of CHO will be fucking us in the arse, same as Mo with KdB and Salh, etc etc

Rugani starts for Juve, also Rodrigo de Paul, a LW for Udinese is deffo worth watching.

How Aaron Wan-Bissaka became the most effective defender in Europe https://www.telegraph.co.uk/football/2019/03/08/aaron-wan-bissaka-became-effective-defender-europe/ February 25, 2018. Crystal Palace are preparing for a Premier League game at home to Tottenham. They have an injury list as long as their run of games without a win against Spurs, and a crisis in defence. Right-backs Joel Ward and Martin Kelly are both out. Their back-up, Timothy Fosu-Mensah, is needed in central defence because so many other players are injured. So Roy Hodgson hands a professional debut to a player few in the ground had even heard of: the 20-year-old Aaron Wan-Bissaka. Fast forward a year, and Wan-Bissaka is now among the most sought-after young players in English football. He has the kind of vital statistics that make football's data analysts drool, and is in contention to be handed a first England call-up when Gareth Southgate names his squad for the European Championship qualifiers against Czech Republic and Montenegro next Wednesday. 'Rapid rise' hardly begins to cover it. Wan-Bissaka's background is well-chronicled - the Croydon boy from a tough estate in New Addington who was dazzling his PE teachers as a nine-year-old - but what is most striking about him is the sheer relish he has for defending. He may have started life as a winger, something he has in common with many of the best full-backs in the game at present (think Dani Alves, Danny Rose, Jordi Alba and former Palace youngster Nathaniel Clyne) but his taste for tackling has been obvious ever since he was first asked to fill in at right-back for a Palace first team training session late in 2016 and left Wilfried Zaha howling in frustration as he continually thwarted his efforts to get past him. snip

Winning combo for me!

Ridiculous Sarri is driving him out off the team, he isn't doing fuckall to keep him, its a pure gaslight job. KdB 2.0

since Sarri and Magic Box's big gaslights about Bayern and CHO and how CHO would get more minutes they gave at the very end of January, beginning of February CHO has 6 minutes against Malmö 90 minutes v Malmö scored then 12 minutes v Dynamo Kiev scored 13 minutes v Huddersfield (came on when it was 4 nil, lolol) a 79th minute sub v Shitty in League Cup final, so 11 true minutes, as no way to count the 30 extra as that was not a given in Sarri's mind its a fucking joke other than that Malmö start (Sarri must have hit the crack pipe on that one) he has 38 total non extra time minutes during 10 possible games, 68 total minutes counting the 30 extra time v Shitty THIRTEEN minutes in the league

20 minutes a game would be a DREAM CHO has 74 total leagues minutes in 28 games The utter fraud Alonso has 2.311

It was Hudson-Odoi's third goal in as many Europa League home games this season but he has played a grand total of just 74 minutes in the Premier League, and many supporters believe Sarri should be showing more trust in a winger who attracted a £35 million bid from Bayern Munich in January.

yep, Sarri's stubbornness is killing our future it isn't even up for debate anymore

half that last summer £65m for Willian we turned down equals £40m plus net left to go and get a decent fucking LB

uplifts my soul

I am so not convinced on Pulisic hope he proves me wrong I absolutely stand by my marketing claim
