chippy

We have to be honest and say if it was any other manager at any other time of the RA era he would be sacked today. All these defeats to crap teams at home is bad enough but the actual performances and effort has been completely unacceptable! None of those defeats were down to bad luck. I never expected us to be chalenging City or Liverpool but i was expecting to see signs of progress by Xmas, but instead we're going backwards and it looks like Frank is running out of ideas of what to do next. He'll need to do better than this in the second half of the season to deserve another season in charge.

All the praise for the team and manager are fully deserved! However, the one part we were not great at yesterday was in their box. We ripped through their midfield time and again but far too often failed to get a shot on goal with our players taking a fraction of a second too long wanting another touch, another pass or wiaiting for the ball to hit the ground. I just wish they'd pull the tirgger straight away when they're in those positions. Some of those half chances will result in goals, so best to have a go.

Best performance of the season! Looked so much more compact and solid with the midfield giving more protection to the back four but also getting forward in numbers too. Everyone played well but Willian was just awesome and imho his best performance for Chelsea.

Playing well but Spurs have been very ordinary. If our final touch and pass in their box had been better we could have had the game sown up by now.

Zaha is better than Willian and CHO but he's simply not the level of player we need to start closing the gap between us, Liverpool and City. Really underwhelmed by our rumoured targets and can see us spunking another few hundred million down the drain.

Zouma isn't good enough but the same should be said about all our defenders and the keeper.

Most worrying things. No matter who we play iin the back four the defence is a total shambles and it looks like Frank and Jody have no idea what to do about it. Even against the poorest teams the defence shits itself anytime a ball is played into the box. Some of the scrambles today were non league level comedy defending. However, the most worrying thing is seeing rubbish teams simply fight harder than us. I can forgive our players not being good enough (we need a mass overall because most are not good enough) or players being off form, but not fighting hard enough is unacceptable st any pro level and that's happened against West Ham, Everton and today.. The players look mentally and physicallly flat. Are they being overtrained? There's got to be a reason for almost the entire team playing so far below their best and not working hard enough. Whatever is going on both manager and players have to do much better than this!

Sad to say Frank looks utterly clueless now. As do the players. Not like it was an unlucky ldefeat or anything like that. We are second best to even the crappest teams now. Roman will not tolerate this for too long!

Pathetic performance, so got what we deserve.

6th -8th place finish. Not got a single player who can open up a defence with a pass.

Well, at least we created a chance.

I'm dreading the Spurs game playing like this.

Great tackle by Kurt.

We've just got to accept most of these players are not the standard we need to get back to being a top side again. Probably 7 or 8 starters away from being good enough so hundreds of millions and lots of time needed for the rebuild that's required.

As boring and feeble as anything churned out by Sarri.

We just look very average in every area of the team

I'm a bit concerned by the rumours of us looking to buy Zaha and Ake. They are both decent players but certainly not the level we need to get back to being title contenders.

Tammy is the only one of our young players who's looking good enough.
