Finishing below Arse is embarrassing enough on its own. Finishing below them when they started with 0 points from their first 9 would next level humiliation.

Tuchel absolutely deserves blame for this, too. He made a point in his presser to say Jorginho came back early from Italy duty to be ready. We have Kovacic. He didn’t take Brentford as seriously as he should’ve by starting with this XI. RLC, Werner, and this back 4 should never have started.

Game over. Humiliated at home by Brentford. All 3 utterly embarrassing goals to concede. Arse going to catch us in the league now. European Champions, club world champions, team full of top internationals. Humiliated and spanked at home by a tiny team like Brentford.

Real Madrid are going to humiliate us. If fucking Brentford can march through us with zero resistance imagine what they’ll do to us.

Unreal. From our own goddamn corner. WHY WOULD ALL 3 PLAYERS GONTO THE FUCKING BALL????

Lazy, soft defending from RLC again.

Fucking hell.

LOOOOOOL HE FINALLY GOT ONE

Brentford know that they can just tightly mark our attackers and allow Azpi + Alonso to have all of the ball and they can’t do anything at all creatively. It has felt like those two have had about 75% of our possession because Brentford (correctly) doesn’t show them any respect going forward. The likes of Mount, Kante, and RLC in midfield have to get on the ball more and be forceful.

If Timo is just going to be totally invisible like this ONCE AGAIN just sit him for the rest of the season. He is offering nothing these days, not even a threat on the break. We desperately need Pulisic and Reece in this side. We aren’t threatening whatsoever.

We get it into the final third and pass it so fucking slowly that we aren’t dangerous at all. Havertz hasn’t even been able to receive the ball ONCE in an attacking position it seems. It’s like there’s zero cohesion or understanding at all in our attack.

Chelsea AT HOME against fucking Brentford and it’s THEM that are totally dictating the game to us. Alonso has been fucking shocking both defensively and on the ball already. Why on Earth are we allowing a team like Brentford to press us high and force us into all these mistakes instead of the other way around? Just why!?

Just the sort of horrible start I was afraid of.

RLC with 2 giveaways and a foul on the edge of our box in the opening 30 seconds. Lovely start…

Lots of legs in our team that should indicate that we’ll be pressing high and trying to really go for it. Hopefully no zombie-ball coming out of the international break.

Lukaku is almost certainly unmovable this summer unless it’s a loan back to Inter. Werner can go, though. Think there will always be a market for a youngish forward with pace. Be sad to see him go but it’s surely best for both parties that he does. Hope we go for Dybala. Be perfect for a 2 striker system playing with either Kai or Lukaku.

Barca’s President has been saying over and over again for weeks now that they can’t afford to pay any signings this summer huge wages or it could cripple them. So you mean to tell me they can afford Rüdiger’s apparently huge salary ask but we can’t? For fucks sake, we’re seriously going to lose a world class CB for free… 🤦‍♂️ Our captain Azpi, the heart and soul of the team Rüdiger, and a solid, ball playing CB in AC all going for free in the same window and to the same club. That would be worth like well north of £100m if they were on the market with longer contracts. Pretty disgraceful management at board level.

This country has allowed Fox News and Facebook to spread propaganda and lies with ZERO consequence for years. Then Trump came along and showed all the worst people that they no longer have to hide or mask their disgusting beliefs and behavior. You can just be openly toxic/racist/regressive etc and it’s okay. And the likes of the Ricketts family & Ken Griffin support those very people financially. 🤢🤢🤢

Even as an American, baseball is a sport I don’t follow closely at all. But what I do know is that the Cubs basically had everything come together during a magical run during that 2016 season. They had a team full of young star players who they developed themselves and they had the best GM (sporting director equivalent) who helped them build through scouting and analytics. Then, from what I understand, after they won it all and broke their 100+ year title drought the Rickett’s family hasn’t spent the necessary money to keep the team competitive since and have sold off all those star talents. Now the Cubs are back to irrelevance and their fans really dislike the owners. As I’ve said before, I think a Ricketts owned Chelsea closely resembles Arsenal under Kroenke this past decade. Spending frugally and only doing so once there’s major fan outrage. Doing just enough to keep us competitive near the top but not spending what’s needed to get us where we want to be which is fighting for titles. Plus on top of the shitty on-pitch stuff I’ve mentioned, you have the family’s Trump/right wing connections. Of those we know are shortlisted this would be the worst easily.

It really fucking sucks that many of these highly talented and highly sought after talents are likely sorting out their summer moves and getting things agreed behind the scenes right now. But due to our ownership situation we’re probably being left behind because there’s so much uncertainty. The likes of Tchoameni, Dembele, and other guys who are certain to move we may miss out on because of these damned sanctions.

Putin needs to be fucking taken out, man. Ffs…

So the fourth “mystery bidder” is Steven Pagliuca who co-owns the Boston Celtics and is chairman at Bain Capital. I don’t know much about him but I am a little familiar with Bain who are a colossal investment firm. And of course, another with a connection to right wing politicians here in America… 😒

Ricketts must have been mighty convincing in their sales pitch, sadly. Probably because of their experience with stadium renovation. Having the atmosphere and feeling around the club in a toxic state from day 1 under a new owner would just be depressing. Really hope these people choosing realize this.

Mystery bidder is Bezos. 🤣

I realize a transaction this massive takes time, but I hope we don’t have to go another week or more of this. Just tiny bits of progress squeaking out drip by drip.
