We've played really well in the second half to be honest. I hope Willian and Oscar both stay benched when the season starts.

Their fans are disgusted with the substitutions lol. Look at their faces.

At least break one of these RM kids' legs.

At least you all know how we get dicked without Fabregas in CM. Matic is hopeless in getting any attacks going.

Astounding how many mediocre players we have in the team. Take 3 off and still another three remain.

Pedro is gonna get sent off. Playing like a complete madman.

The fans at the stadium don't deserve this. Really poor from everyone involved. The players and the coach.

Matic is shit.

I don't understand the hype with Loftus Cheek.

Lmao getting dominated by the shit Marcelo. I'm dying.

Marcelo was playing him on. Useless linesman.

He can barely control a football. Look at the Euros. Unless he gets a chance handed on a platter he's useless. He won't be abysmal, but we can make way better use of that kind of money. The only positive is that he really wants to play for us unlike our world class talent who wants to put in a good season just so that he can leave to Real Madrid on a high.

He is mediocre. Anyways, the news is from the mirror. I got worried for nothing.

United is getting a world class talent. We are getting a giant blue donkey.

Disgusting news. Too much money and too little sense are a bad combination. This will join our other horrible transfers over the years. It's probably Enemalo trying to prove a point that the player Jose let go is actually a world class talent. I'll probably not watch any football next season.

What are we doing ? Are we waiting for Arsenal to buy him a plain ticket first ?

It says : "The Chelsea Board sell yet another one of their talented prospects, while retaining mediocre players on high salaries. Conte is unhappy. Lazio and Roma and Manolas are laughing. Gladbach delighted."

How would you have felt if Hazard was on the receiving end of that kind of tackle in a preseason game ?

Fabregas is the only midfielder who can pass in our team. He is crucial to keep moving the ball around. He was our best player until the tackle.

If he has a great season he'll go to Real Madrid. It will be such a massive loss, bigger than Pogba's departure from Juventus. I don't feel like we'll be able to replace him because our transfer record is so mediocre plus once every club knows we're getting big money for him they'll jack up prices for our replacement targets. Pogba basically netted Juventus a 29 year old Higuain and Pjanic.

Platini's FFP dream being realized right there. One club blowing all competitors out of the water in each league (EPL and Serie A). To call it Financial "Fair" Play is an insult itself to clubs of lesser means.

If we get him we'd have one of the best attacks in the world imo. Imagine Hazard and Mahrez on the wings. Defenders will be shitting themselves at the prospect of facing these two. He'll be pretty expensive but imo can turn out to be a huge bargain as well if he keeps up these performances, which I have no doubt he will. Some of his best games are against the very top teams, i.e. against us and City he played very very well. Unfortunately it doesn't really seem like we're in for him.

If we're going for a Portuguese man I hope we go for Ruben Neves. I am tired of buying players who are clearly not at a top level. We have enough of them already in our squad.

Managers come and go too often for us and each manager wants their own players. Hence we get nowhere in the long term with improvements to the team. How long has Mikel been with us for example ? Plus we make lots of poor decisions with signings. Our good talents we sell to make a profit (Luiz, KDB, Schurrle, Lukaku) and the mediocre players we keep long term (Oscar, Willian, Mikel etc). Forget about quality in depth, for long stretches of time we don't even have quality starters in certain places i.e. playing Ramires in midfield.
