We'll improve by just not doing dumb shit like heavy rotation of the back 4.only picking players either on current merit or belief in their ability to grow.not bigging up players but then by actions of holding them back contradicting what you have said about them. Help transition of talented young players into the first team.some of which that are in the squad already,some at Strasbourg.they have the talent.let them grow.young players having a short leash whilst veterans making mistakes get a long leash is Marescaball. We'll see on those but I'm confident he won't be such a disaster in interviews or be as negative,stuck ridged to tactics and selections that aren't working. No need to predict how it will pan out. #CarefreeProperChelseatothecore

I don't feel the modern need to predict everything beyond if I eat food eventually a turd will come out. But if I did,this one is probably one of the hardest games to predict.for them they have less talent than us but are well oiled stable team and playing us is their "cup final" . For us the self sabotage shackles are off.

Waiting for Rosenior to have his own thread rather than keep adding to the Yul Quitter thread.

McFarlane looks like he could have a future as head coach somewhere.maybe strasbourg.motivation was on the players but got the tactics almost spot on.

Pip stands for personal independence payment. It's a payment for people with longterm illness or disabilities.

Protests are generally carried out by students ,commies and pip surfers.not many of which can afford to financially support Chelsea..

It's new years day and cloudy brained is my norm on this day but aren't you mixing up Lavia with Caicedo in what player did to LFC? My memory is Caicedo was coming to us and LFC tried a late hijack that failed because Moises felt already committed to us.

Estevao on the flanks yes.although as a 10 he's not ready,maybe never will. Acheampong on the other hand is more suited for central role and gets put on the flanks

They aren't going to be their targets though so why I responded as I did to Pizy's claim that hiring Rosenior will mean we miss out on targets. For me I think we have enough experienced players in numbers,just not enough leaders.our average age is only 1 year and 2 days younger than Man City.but their veterans are far better and leaders. We hire people with only experience of young players,that certainly needs to change.

We only sign young players anyway.without conference league Enzo held back talented young players.if Rosenior does come in and establishes couple of them into the first team then those young players will still come.

Those were the 2 I would have been happy with. All potential candidates are risky but would have them 2 as most likely to succeed. I don't care about favoured formations unless it's something like 2 upfront (which I still believe is a viable option in the game but not for us) other ones we can work around. Rosenior is the riskiest,based on just never having been at a club anywhere near as big as ours.he does have some good qualities so it's not 100% he's going to fail.but it's a longshot.just being bit more sensible,picking players in their best position.recognizing Acheampong is a better CB option than Tosin,Badi.Santos in Midfield ahead of Gusto.making good substitutions would get us lots more.good results.

Played him into the ground. I know Hato hasn't been great yet but still.should be used more to find his feet and most important for now,avoid Cucu getting burnt out or injured.

Should sell Tosin,Badi and Gusto if anyone will take the first two.Gusto has had a few decent games so should be interest and maybe teams won't have picked up on his fatal flaw of being a dracula when somebody brings a cross.

He may be only 14 but as Argentinian players go he looks fully grown sliding into that ball pit...

Helps that Cardiff are missing Ruben Colwill whose inconsistent but capable of worldies.his younger brother is good too but more conventional solid supporting midfielder type. The atmosphere will be similar to Leeds away. But really it's Maresca with his team selection that worries me most..
