Pizy

Having now seen it twice on the players I'm just in love with it. Yes, I even think the big '3' looks kinda cool. And oh man, that leaked away kit is a stunner as well. Think I'll be ordering a Pulisic home shirt and a Ziyech away once the next season starts.

Pounce before those Bayern cunts get too deep in his head and convince him to wait a year so they can sign him. 😒

Bearded 'ginho to start against Palace. 💪🏼

This was the perfect opponent for Kurt. When he can keep his game simple and everything is played up to him in the air he dominates. It's when he's up against teams that press and there are pacey forwards buzzing around him that he struggles because he isn't great in the ball.

Can see quite a few banana peels for us. Luckily, Leicester and Wolves have plenty of tricky ones as well.

Don't know why Willian has been mentioned as poor today. He was great. Been great since the restart. As long as he doesn't prevent us from going after Havertz I'd offer him another 2 years. Could be a phenomenal weapon off the bench.

Most dominant and frankly trouble free performance of the season. Pretty shameful display from Watford, really. Pulisic is in Hazard mode since the restart. Just so aggressive and direct. Only way to stop him is to foul him just like Eden. I genuinely want to know wtf is going on with Jorginho. Sad to se as I'm a huge fan of his. I don't want to see him frozen out and sold. 😩

We haven't even been linked to a midfielder so I can't imagine what happens if Jorginho is sold. Which I think would be a stupid move. I don't like the look of this XI at all, either. *sigh*

Is Jorginho done here!? Wtf!? Been one of our best players this season and can't get in the team at all? Not even an appearence since the restart?

Another thing that pundits/journalists/random Twitter people have for some strange reason completely ignored is the fact that United spent something like £180m to improve their team this season whilst we've spent ZERO. Including buying the most expensive defender in history. And we have a manager who has never managed in the PL before and only has 2 seasons as a manager overall. All we're going to hear from the media is about how brilliant they are now and how we are dropping. But in truth, it would be an incredible achievement if we finished ahead of them.

I'm a lot less angry and worried about our future since we've already sewn up 2 fantastic, world class attacking players that will improve us substantially. If we hadn't done so I'd be extremely nervous about whether we'd be able to compete next year. Think we may need to accelerate any other big signings soon, though, just in case we finish outside the CL places. Like, go get Havertz ASAP in case we fail and he decides he doesn't fancy us.

The biggest difference between those two and Tammy is that they're both fantastic footballers, not just great goal scorers. Tammy doesn't offer much of anything if he isn't scoring. Jury is still very much out on what CHO will become.

As soon as we lost to WH it became all about finishing 4th. Any hope of 3rd was flushed down the drain with the fixtures we have left compared to United. Gotta hope Wolves and Leicester have a rocky run in and that City's ban is upheld. This will go from a fairly successful to utterly horrendous season if we are in the top 4 all year long only to throw it away in the final stretch. Hopefully our players don't shit the bed.

Nice. With our bunch of bottlers and mentally fragile players that's slightly less pressure.

Man, I absolutely hate being the late kickoff game which it seems like we've been every match day since the restart. Anxiously waiting around all damn day for these big must win matches is awful.

So I guess now we have to hope Havertz isn't yet another German talent who is star struck by Bayern and waits another year before moving there. You can be sure they'll have been tapping him up like crazy. Bacisally, it's now or never. As with Werner, we may be the only big club who is in a good position to afford him. Bayern can't do it this summer, City are well stocked in midfield, United probably can't afford both he and Sancho, Barca are skint. Real Madrid at this moment are our biggest threat. And he'd be a bit part player there if he joins. Here he can be a major part of a team on the up.

I keep seeing this thread bumped hoping for something substantial. Instead it's a bunch of rando Twitter users and regular Chelsea supporters like us.

This will likely be another opponent who will sit deep and try to stifle us which means Tammy and Ross will be redundant again. They both should be in the bench here.

Yep, Kova injured so more Barkley starting for a few weeks. Hopefully Jorginho comes back in at least.

Not gonna lie, if we fail to win this one I'll probably check out for the rest of the season. I get angry to an unhealthy degree when we lose and especially against dross like we've been losing to all season. Just not worth the stress.

Also, City again showing that you can never have enough top class attacking players. No Aguero, no Silva, no Bernardo, Sané gone. And they still dismantle the best side in the league. This is why Havertz should still be a target. Yes, we need defenders, but what we have up on the business end of the pitch could use more upgrades too.

We beat this City side just days ago and then lost to West Ham... Depressing.

Has a player with 5+ years left on a contract ever been loaned before for the entirety of their contract? Maybe we can send him back to Bilbao.

I think his transfer fee and length of contract mean he's basically stuck here. I'm sure his wages are massive for a keeper as well. Where could he even go? And would the club take a mega loss just to move on quickly?

I think Declan Rice can develop into a very good DM. He's already really solid there. Buying him and converting him into a full time CB? Ehhh. I wonder what WH would even set the price at.
