Nah Lukaku still did more in a Chelsea shirt that first season back than Mudryk has. Both bad transfers. Irrespective of its illegal recreational drugs, PEDs, whatever, the signings been a disaster from day 1.

This transfer is just looking worse and worse for the club holy shit 🤣

I think someone like Milan Skriniar from PSG would be an attainable target in January. Hasn’t quite worked at Paris but a top player, experienced… definitely fits the bill. But hes 29, on a really good wage… probably too old and too much money for Clearlake’s policies.

Yes we won and the performance was good but we really need to replace or get rid of Sanchez & Tosin. They weren’t necessarily that bad today but can quite clearly see they aren’t at the level for where we aspire to be 👍

KDH shouldn’t ever of been signed and I would imagine Casadei is going to be sold off also barring some insane injury crisis or something - although there is a track record of Italian players who do seem to really develop a lot later on in their careers compared to other European countries. For the money it took to sign KDH and what we will get selling him, will be a loss. Carney bit different as he really needs to plays higher up in all reality but the signings of certain offensive players in the past 18 months and departure of Poch was really the beginning of the end for him. His wages will be an issue to shift. Santos looks like he has kicked on again finally getting some traction in France last season. It will be interesting to see if we bring him back in or loan him again. Or if the price is right as I would imagine teams may be tracking him also and the prospect of not playing regularly due to the likes of Moises, Romeo & Enzo may make him reconsider. Who knows? We look on track for top 4 which means CL and more quality opposition. I doubt we will be able to make 7-10 first 11 changes every game like with the conference for example because the likelihood is the level will be tougher and there will be matches we will play against bigger teams. Which means playing time will become scarcer for certain players.

Still think we will need someone who is more refined & a few years ahead to compete/share minutes with Jackson as a number 9. But this players probably going to be hard to find still. But if we do, I suppose it will raise questions regarding Nkunku then - although I think that one of the pair of Nkunku and Felix will in particular want to leave if they aren’t playing a lot in the next 6-12 months anyway.

Proper GK, CB and a CF and we are challenging for the league next season I think. Barring a catastrophic disaster. I know we are up there now but I think we are still short and the likes of Arsenal & City will go on a run to go neck and neck with Liverpool. But 2 or 3 good additions and with the manager at this rate, its all starting to look positive. I will admit, at first, Maresca looked like an iffy appointment. The way he has come in and treated the likes of Sterling, Chilwell, even Fernandez at times hasn’t gone unnoticed though - he’s taking no shit and it shows. Has been brutal in the right way which has sent a message. Still needing to cut out these silly goals/chances we have conceded but that will hopefully come with time.How the fuck Sanchez is still starting is beyond me though. Even if the other lad isn’t particularly an upgrade. An elite level GK is a must….

5-1, Gusto been a mixed bag tonight but brilliant there. Good finish Sancho. And typical Liverpool overturn it against the Geordies. Cunts

Noni what a finish. Lets get a few more now….

No? 😂 Once they get past the half way line - granted they have conceded about 300 goals trying to play out from the back this season - there seems to be a real difference in how quick they are getting to the ball compared to our guys. We really need a third goal. There will be more moments to do so though should probably be 4-1 already 😂

This is why we cannot afford to have players like Palmer, Felix and Fernandez all in the starting 11 at once against any team that are willing to keep the ball and not just sit in, far too passive and lack the intensity to get back in once they beat the initial press. Enzo back to looking like he is towing a caravan when he runs. Lucky as fuck they made their own error there.

Very alarming that Jorgensen was extremely busy tonight. No disrespect to Heidenheim but wow. And thats with players like Disasi, Tosin, Badiashile and Veiga (was getting a rave review everytime he played so far) in our backline. Which makes me wonder is it tactical issues or individual quality or both? I mean Disasi & Tosin are average beyond belief but Badiashile & Veiga aren’t that poor. Outside of the defence, Mudryk (good finish but pretty poor throughout) & KDH again showing why aren’t and never will be Chelsea level players also. Clear lack of quality and thats playing at this level. Felix again frustrating, lack of killer instinct and as most of us expected when signed him (& Sancho too) real lack of intensity without the ball.

Tbf different situations entirely. Kante started getting a lot of injuries at the end of his career - after playing a tonne of minutes for seasons on end for both club & country. Not when starting/coming up to his best years and having struggled to play regularly for seasons on end.

Madrid looking for a RB, if TAA doesn’t go there should try and get a good fee for him off of them. Absolute liability.

Injured again. Hamstring. Absolute liability.

I thought people were skeptical of managers having as much control on players particularly after this ownership group and the Todd Boehly/Thomas Tuchel transfer window? Am pretty sure every coach since has had their influence on signings restricted to a degree. Probably consulted but doubtful they get final say. Another pointless signing though. To go with several pointless/underwhelming level of quality under the sporting director pairing. Disasi, Mudryk, KDH, Jorgensen, Washington, Tosin, Kellyman…. Just to name a few.

Surprise, surprise what a clueless signing.

Would rather Noni in than Joao yes because he actually works off the ball. He isn’t starting material either I agree but doubt we will see Felix starting against any top teams anytime soon. And rightfully so.

Wonder how many folk will be posting Felix in their starting 11s after a good game against Noah’s Ark. Same as for the Newcastle game after Panathiniakos game… 🤣 Don’t want to see Enzo or Felix in the starting 11. Lavia-Caicedo and Palmer please.

Hopefully puts him in the shop window for some suckers to buy him.

Doing anything that makes him resemble a footballer a club would want to buy from us would be very useful. Surely, you’d like to think so anyway but depends on next games and if we go with Felix and Nkunku together behind the striker or Nkunku as a 9. Although if the other teams are going to give us as many easy goals as this mob, why not just go with the same line up? Think they are probably all going to be about this level - maybe an arrogant assumption - but don’t think anyone is expecting our B team to get beat by Heidenheim or Astana or Shamrock or whoever else is remaining.

Felix 4-0 🤣 Just need to see Mudryk score now

Can we play these every week?

Well its actually nice to see Maresca use him irrespective of the opposition or his quality. Sat there in pre-season saying he wouldn’t go on loan then hasn’t used him at all more or less in competitive games.

What the fucks the boy trying to mark him doing there 🤣 2-0 ah well that was amateur hour stuff. Keep going now don’t stop, real chance to get another 2 or 3 goals before HT. Even with Felix doing his best Torres impression and Mudryk being… well… Mudryk.
