Fernando

No better options. Get the man better players.

He is just good to have for the HG quota.

Simple, Alonso is not great and no top team would want him. So if you give him something he will gladly take it. But the influential players the board can't get it right.....So it's obvious the demands are not being met. I wonder if it's true that Hazard never signed because he sees no vision and ambition from the club.....

Fatigue.

Agreed this false 9 is horrible. And that speaks of the state we are in, where the coach rather play a false 9 then an actual striker. What the board has done with the strikers have been abysmal.

We can just win the EL and get CL.

I don't think it's Sarri fault. It's the board fault for not having agreed a new contract a while. Look at how we let other contract drag? To me Sarri has been doing great with giving time to CHO giving his age. That's about the right away to ease him into the club. But the problem here is the board and the contracts.

An essential player to do nothing? CHO has offer more in late game then Willian. Playing him is like playing with one less player.

Seriously? I don't want to watch any more of this. We are definitely run by idiots.

Too much logic here, but I will put my finger in my ears and say:

Because Willian scored a goal against them. Seems they are like us, buy players who score against us.

Yesssssss!!!!!

In fact let's think about this. We hear that Sarri is rigid with his formation. He loves the 4-3-3. And he knows that a 4-3-3 requires a striker, not a false 9. The fact he does that, show he is not that rigid.....but then again the fact he plays Hazard there shows we have a major problem. I'm at pain as you are with this whole situation. But I can't blame the man, I know what he is trying to do but he has to do with what he has. I just ask to give him next season. If next season we are still playing the same dull boring futbol, then call for his head. P.S. On the other side I do dislike the way he has handle the cho situation. I have been saying this for years, since god knows who that all the manager we get are not good with youth. We keep getting manager that are not good for this and expect them to do it. The club is stupid for this, if you want youth, then get managers that will do this!

So you think we will draw and win with a striker right? Placing your confidence on who? Morata? Giroud? I think the fact we are playing false 9 is because of the strikers the club have bought for us. Because playing with those guys is like playing with one less. Okay I take it back, Giroud I always saw as a super sub, the fact that we have to depend on him as a starter shows how poorly the club have left us.

Never said be a defeatist, but you came throwing at me, We are Chelsea football club. What does that mean? Does that mean we have a high expectation because of the top players we have? If you say that and we have the best of the best, then yes I would say we have no excuse. But when you say that and we have crap players, then obviously the standard you have has changed. Because the club don't see us as that standard your holding. If they did they will not settle for less. The way the club is being run, shows that we don't hold that same prestige as before. And because of this, your expectation are the same of 10 years ago. And that is being obtuse.

Yes too high. And we are Chelsea football club? what does that mean? accept what? Are you basing this on the last 10 years? Well let me tell you that the last few years we have been buying average players, we are no longer the Chelsea from 10 years ago where we will have the best. Now we are approaching more like an Arsenal type of club. And that is what the board and owner have put us at. So lower your expectations.

This says it all. As I said before you be obtuse to expect much this season, and your expectation are too high.

What a shame. But now we got no choice but to sell him if he don't want to sign a new contract.

Well yes next year we must see some improvement. I agree on this. And I believe we will.

I think people have amnesia. Because the same people who are clamoring city and Liverpool fail to realize they was this dire in the first season. It's going to take time, you be obtuse to expect much of anything this season.

I like Buy back. If he doesn't want to sign a contract, that is the best option available.

Don't know where to put this: Police allege Chelsea fans sexually assaulted women and made racist chants on train https://www.theguardian.com/football/2019/jan/08/police-chelsea-sexual-assault-racist-chants-train The club really has been drag to the mud by the fans. This is one too many already.

Unless you get him for a discount.

Well not only we are losing Fabregas but so drinkwater and Bakayoko. Replace with them with these two. Should be great.

That would suck to lose this guy to Napoli. Get it done now!
