Fully agree. It also sets that winning mentality in them. I still believe winning the league cup in Jose's first season set off a belief in the players.

Don't post that often anymore on here but that had to be the most spirited Chelsea performance I have seen in years. When Tammy stood up I thought of Lukaku and new the outcome. But all I can say is well played lads.

Not sure if this has been posted. Are Sky , Jose's recruitment agency? - https://www.skysports.com/football/news/11668/11737345/jose-mourinho-back-to-chelsea-maybe-it-is-not-such-a-crazy-thought

His acting like a child. He turns up in the big games he wants to play (barca) yes he had qualities but what has happened to the mentality of players?

Typical players nowadays just no respect anymore...

I know we have no chance but I would love Icardi here. He would teach Morata a thing or too about passion for the game.

100% agree with this. it's so easy to forget what Roman has done for this club. When others are doing better.

I pretty much agree with this... Sad state of affairs , but maybe its time that youth academy paid off. Start using players we have , i would much rather give Ruben minutes then spend another 35 mill on a second Drinkwater type transfer.

I think we needed that to go in before half time can't see us scoring to without reply in 45.

Different generation entirely. Gone are the days of men it's all about how many likes they can get on social media. I'm just glad I was old enough to appreciate the likes of Terry, lamps, Drogba etc. I feel for the younger fans and my son seeing these poor excuses for real footballers.

I remember years ago there would be a lot more shock at results like this now , well since 2015 we seem to be more humble to these results. The main issue I have as many have pointed out is what is the vision it just feels like a mess at the moment... no squad balance no idea who will be manager next year and is Hazard and Tibo off ? I just hope we get Top 4 and that's mainly for the money and to attract better names if big players leave. I was saying to a friend that I'm glad I was old enough to appreciate our earlier teams 04/05 , 05/06 etc. As I feel for people expecting much nowadays with the squad we are assembling.

This was coming we haven't improved a squad that came mid table last year so why would they do much better? Think we need to accept we are not the team we were years ago and it's going to take a long time to get back up there. Just glad I saw us win so many things over the last decade. We are going to need to be patient.

Looks like he has kept the weight off this time. I remember it took him a while to get fully fit at the beginning of last season.

I am afraid the lack of CL football does not help a team that needs more top players. Still it's early days. From what I have seen of morata is he would be a good back up to Costa... if we can keep him.
