I'm certainly not thinking of us being anywhere near title contenders next season, with or without Euro football. I'm not a fan of TT, but no manager can do much with these players. That's why I'm thinking of what's most important - fiddling along, hoping to scrape a Euro spot every year or accepting most of these players are simply not good enough and go for the long, hard job of a complete rebuild. 4 consecutive seasons of mostly shite and mediocrity. There was a time when we could get away with the quick fix with yet another change of manager and think no further than the next season. That's clearly not working anymore!

It'll be very interesting to see how the fans take to TT next season.

We're not a "terrible team" just a bang average one and have been ever since Conte's second season. Been fortunate that the likes of Utd and Arsenal have been equally piss poor for most of that time.

I think it's an advantage to not have as many games to play. Need to put as much time as possible into a complete rebuild with new players that will seriously get us going again. The other way is to become another Arsenal. Rather take a step backwards for a while to then start going seriously forward again.

Top four has gone! Just want us to drop enough points to miss out on Europa League now.

Moderate level keeper and fb's as well.

But why are people only saying it now that we're losing? We had runs of good results under Lamps but they only papered over the massive cracks.

Have to say that was a great goal!

But the best in the world at making 1001 five yard passes a game.

I very highly doubt TT will be here for very long. We're a million miles away from winning or even challenging for the title and we know RA will not give managers 3 or 4 years to rip this team up and start again.

No manager can keep getting away with his team relying on knicking a goal and keeping a clean sheep ever game. Even in the Everton game when we played at our best we needed a deflection and a own to score. Even Lampard had a good run of results but the results were often often better than the performances.

We have been crap for nearly the entire season and only still up there because the other teams have been just as bad or even worse. There is not a snowball chance In hell we will challenge for the title again until there is a mass clearout of players. We dont have one single world class player. A few good ones and a far too many mediocre players of midtable level.

Being ripped apart by a team certain to be relegated.

We're fuckef now!

We're fuckef now!

Need better than those two if we're ever going to challenge for the title again.

Yes, but to be fair, at this stage of the season we need to pick certain games when we rest players as well.

Stream cut out so missed the goal and sending off.

Ziyech had already fucked up two attacks with woeful passes. TT would be thinking of subbing CHO if he did that.

The way we play, one goal against us and we're in big danger of dropping points against even the shitiest teams, and we are due a goal against us.

I know I wouldn't be happy to see him leave in the summer! If he's not back to his best sometime next season, then it might be time for him to move on. At the moment, on form, he's the only attacking player we have that has title challenging talent.

Is it just me, or is CHO a bit flat-footed? Some fans think he's never been the same since the injury and that might be so, but the real top players are nimble and light on their feet. Can't think of one who is flat footed.

Took the goal well.

CHO gets flack, but for some reason James gets away with an awful lot of bad defending, slowing down attacks with back passes and shit balls into the box that hardly ever go to a Chelsea player.

Strange how we looked better last season but have got worse after spending 250 million.
