Get him! He's the best option available right now.
-
We were 16th when Mourinho got sacked. That's worse than where we are now. Why would anybody want him back?
-
“We were talking before the game about watching All or Nothing and Arsenal, two years into Mikel’s reign he’s close to getting the sack and people are wanting him out and it’s a disaster. And now things have changed a little bit – and that’s just the way it is." Can't believe what I'm reading. No wonder the squad looks dejected every game when watching Arsenal fail is used as a motivational tool. 🤦♂️ Small club mentality.

That's just stupid, what the actual fuck lol.🤣
-
Why was Sterling marking Kane during that corner? Wtf? 🤔
-
Enrique or Pochettino. We should get one of them now.
-
Yes, but it's widely accepted that it was down to the quality of the legendary squad we had and his backroom staff (particularly Steve Clarke and Henk ten Cate). The fact that he didn't manage any major teams before or after Chelsea is evidence to that theory, he was just Roman's friend and that's the only reason he got the job. In terms of shock value when the announcements happened, Grant's was worse coming just after The Special One... I personally remember feeling great anger and grief. In footballing terms however, Potter's is far worse. We don't have a squad anymore that can manage itself.

Of all the years I have been a Chelsea fan, firing Tuchel and then replacing him with Potter is among the most horrible decisions I've seen the club make, if not the worst. Tough call between this and sacking Mourinho for Avram Grant.
-
Heads have got to roll. This is beyond embarrassing. Glad I opted not to watch the game today, didn't have a good feeling about it because of my conviction that the players have lost all trust in him and his "project" (or rather he hasn't been able to gain that trust)... Things can go only one way if that happens and I'm afraid it will only get worse if he isn't sacked NOW.

In his peak in a 5 a the back system, Alonso was world class. I don't know if you can name a better LWB at that time. Or do you mean Alonso in his later years?
-
Need to get rid ASAP before he can do any more damage. Can't believe he was appointed in the first place, I was screaming NOT to do it, but once it was done I feared the worst. Chelsea is an unrelenting beast that has broken big personality monsters like Mourinho, Conte, Tuchel with no remorse. Difference being they managed to bring success to the club before being broken, that's what elite winners do... Potter never showed this type of personality to succeed at Chelsea, he's too soft, too timid. Many of the new signings probably had no idea who Potter was before his surprise move to Chelsea, so unless he's bringing the results (which he's not), he's not gonna get any respect from them and it's gonna get worse with every bad result. In addition to being a good coach and tactician, you also need to command respect and a bit of fear from the players. We need to appoint someone who can do that, trophyless mid-table managers are not the answer. Boehly and co fucked us real hard last summer, I hope they learn from it.

Same with the estonian commentator lol, couldn't believe there was no var for the handball. He was ripping into var for looking at that offside for so long too. Blatant corruption.
-
Please don't give this young set of players to Mourinho, anybody but him.
-
He's going to be a superstar, already so comfortable and solid. Great find by the scouts! Potentially saved tens of millions by unearthing this lad.

So a guy can't sing lyrics to songs he likes? Sure you and me can think Lil Baby's music sucks (which it does lol), but he has 30M monthly listeners on spotify, so clearly a lot of people don't think that. I listen to all sorts of music, including rap/hip-hop, and when I sing the lyrics along I don't beep myself when someone says nigga (and lord knows there are many classic songs with that word). That doesn't mean I do it out of some deep hatred towards black people, I do it out of enjoyment for the song and censoring would just ruin the flow (just listen to some censored rap songs on youtube lol, they're unlistenable). Many non-racist non-black people enjoy black rap music and sing along the lyrics without hating or hurting anyone, difference being we don't get recorded and uploaded on the internet. Mudryk's only crime was being famous while caught on tape... and liking Lil Baby 😄 It would be more excusable if it had been 2Pac or Dr. Dre 😎

That's an interesting turn. What made you change your mind?
-
Enzo was our best midfielder after having only one training session, you could see the guy is going to be a superstar. Can't wait to see him play alongside Zakaria or Kova. Mount and Gallagher both in the same line-up just doesn't work, they're too similar, but I understand GP didn't have much to choose from. I would have preferred Carney to play tho. Most glaring issue again was the lack of a proper striker. Havertz has good movement, he gets picked out in promising positions time and time again, but he just lacks the killer instinct you need from a striker. Just the type of player he is, not really his fault that he's being played out of position. Sure he could and should score more, but I take it more as a failure of our recruitment in striking department, than a failure of Kai's. I would be very interested to see what he could do as AMF with Enzo and Zakaria/Kova behind him.
-
It's because of those disastrous Lukaku and Auba transfers. Can't say the club hasn't signed strikers to move Kai out of the 9 position, it's just that they signed the wrong ones. Had they not been even worse, Kai wouldn't get a look in at ST.
-
Ridiculous if he gets any punishment whatsoever. Dragging his name through mud in media is enough as it is. I can't fucking stand the state of the world. Social justice pussies everywhere.
-
Just don't rush them back ffs! From the moment the Foo Fighters doctors give the green light, GP should not play them for another month or so just in case.
-
We should sign Jeffrey Schlupp. He's a bonafide champion, he knows what it takes to win the league and can play several positions to devastating effect.
-
A scrappy win but 3 points and a clean sheet on top of that is all that matters at the moment. Hopefully it gives a moral boost to take on and win against Liverpool.
-
Crazy to think that we could have just promoted Hall and kept the 60 million for more pressing needs.
-
Welcome! I like his neck tattoo saying "talent ain't enough", dude's probably a hard worker. He and Nkunku are gonna fuck shit up from next season on, slow and cumbersome Chelsea will hopefully be just a bad memory like that freaky 2016 season. Got a very good feeling about our future with the signings we've been making, long may it continue! Of course the price is a bit shocking, but hey, can't put a price on fucking Arsenal over 🖕😜
-
I miss Tuchel. I don't think we would have done any worse with him. And with TT at least you knew what he was thinking on the touchline, but whenever they show Potter he looks so lost... Inspires no confidence at all.
