No worries, it's only the 6th game of the season. In my opinion, only after the 10th game you can see how things are for real. If by then we are in the top 4, no more than 5 points behind the leader, then I'd say that we're good. And I am sure that this will be the case.

I don't remember him being such a big twat last season, for example. Call me paranoid, but I think Jose had a lot to do with that. I think he's instructing Costa to wind up the opponents. His behaviour was far more decent ;ast season than these days and after six games he had 8 goals. Now, after six games, he only scored once. Even with his behaviour aside, something is clearly not working for him. Only one goal in six Premier League games is way, way too little for the champions' main striker. I repeat, his job is to score goals. Which he does not.

True. On the other hand, why wouldn't he? The fans cheer him, the manager praises him (and probably instructs him to do exactly what he does), the referees don't punish him.

How does it work for him? He's a striker, how many goals has he scored this season? Ronaldo does crazy shit, Suarez does some crazy shit, but they NEVER fail to deliver. His job is to score, not to get other players sent off. Again, how many goals has he scored this season?

I was watching the highlights from today's game and I really feel bad for that Gabriel guy. The poor lad got screwed over by Costa big time.

Oscar ain't Belgian though

Nevermind, it's definitely BS.

MOSEEEEES GOAAAAL

There's a tweet claiming that there were "Chelsea fans chanting "You should've died, you should've died, that day in Reading,you should've died" at Petr Cech". Could any of it be true? I personally refuse to believe it.

If he gets suspended, which I hope will happen, it's because he clearly deserves it.

I know, but he's taking it too far. And the thug thing doesn't explain his atrocious ball control and the huge amount of lost balls.

I don't like Costa at all. Not because he is a twat (which he clearly is, yet sometimes he is a useful twat), but because he is absolutely CLUELESS when he has the ball. He is a poacher, he should be denied to leave the opponent's box when we are attacking. Every 1 v 1 duel, he loses the ball. His control is a disaster. I hope he gets a 3-4 matches ban, since Mourinho doesn't seem to be ready to drop him. Nevertheless, good display today. Pedro, Oscar and Hazard had a good day, as well as Cahill. But personally, I love Zouma. Such a beast! MoTM for me. P.S.: doesn anyone have a gif of that penalty that was not given to us in the first half?

Happy birthday, mate! Come on, you blues!

In my opinion, the main problem is that this team lacks enthusiasm. The players don't seem to enjoy football at all. There's clearly a mental block happening and I don't know how it can be stopped. A good manager should be the one able to do that, a good manager should be able to solve this crisis. Mourinho is, obviously not good, he is great. But, unfortunately, he seems to be more preoccupied about his ego and image and about giving the media bollocks to write and talk about and cursing at other managers. Our strategy, ever since last winter, was a mess. I don't know what needs to be changed, maybe the manager, maybe someone else, but things can't go on like this. It's a shame, we've never been so bad (modern era), not even under Scolari or AVB, tbh. Earlier, I was watching Leicester's comeback against Villa and there was such a positive energy in the stadium. The manager, the fans, the players, they were all full of confidence and energy. We look like a crock.

REMY REMY REMY REMY REMY

I don't want him to go, but what's there to be done? Sack the players? Fine them? Do what? I really can't see a solution to this. Maybe he just needs to publicly admit that he's lost it, then shut the hell up and then try to fix it as much as it can be fixed.

And a stupid offer to make.

First of all, well done Pardew and Palace. Great display. Secondly, I would like to say that in my opinion Ivanovic's lack of form is not as important as Matic, Cesc, Hazard, Willian and Costa being PISS POOR.

Well, at least Falcao scored. El Tigre is back

Fuck off, im out

yessssaah

Props to Palace and Pardew, though. Great performance and effort.

The title is gone. Sometimes, you can just feel it.. They are strong, we are shit. Simple as that.

Well...

Our players are clearly disconnected from football.
