Fernando

Take out cucu and ugu.

They have livramento and we have cucu... Would have save money if we kept him.

So nothing new, just throwing dirt during a international break as per usual to bring our momentum down.

Malo Gusto has not had the impact as the others. Now that I'm thinking I'm analyzing who we sold this summer and who we replace. We got rid of Mount and Kai. I would think Palmer took the spot of Mount and in that case amazing upgrade. Kai I'm not sure who would take his spot, Nkunku? Because of Nkunku injury we would leave this as mute for now. And Jackson we had not striker so he really takes no one spot....well we did had Lukaku and Werner, so I assumer he takes one of those spot. For Lukaku awesome upgrade, for Werner.....I still love Werner despite not being a great hit. So I will put it as an upgrade for Lukaku. Who else we sold to upgrade their position? As I start to think we have done amazing in term of buys. Cucu even though improve I would still sell, not sold on him. Good he is doing fine, so we can get teams interested in him. Maatsen disappointed in him, I guess he would be sold this January. And Madueke so far he has been underwhelming. Not sure if he would amount to something great. Chalobah another one to go if any teams will take him, and Fofana, what a pity.

Chelsea FC face new questions over how Roman Abramovich funded success Leaked files reveal secret payments that may have breached football’s strict ‘financial fair play’ rules https://www.theguardian.com/world/2023/nov/15/Chelsea-fc-face-new-questions-over-how-roman-abramovich-funded-success Looks like we are going to have some point deductions coming.

After this game I think there's some stuff we can do to improve. Silva although he scored he was also at fault for one goal. I think this is his last season, wonder who will take his place? Even though Jackson score I'm still unsure, I would definitely want another ST. GK if we can get a top one that is good at passing go for it, so far right now I don't know who. Interesting to see what we would do with Lavia once fit and where he would go.

100 million for Toney? Walkaway

Well we need a reboot and that's what happen last year. But also needed a manager that was good with young players and play good futbol. Before I was a big fan of Bielsa because he does that, he was good with bringing a very good brand of futbol and improve players....but he was too crazy. Pochetino was like a manager that came from that school but he was good with young players as saw in Tottenham and Southampton. So he was like the best candidate available at the moment and I'm glad we got him.

I think Chilwell when fit will take that place. Thiago.....need to face out. Gallagher I love but I have a feeling Lavia might come better.

I think is the new trend. Ever since we gone to a goalkeeper that plays from behind. If you can name 5 Gk that was wc and playing from behind? They are not because the best GK in our history where not high priority for this. Cech was amazing but his ball distribution, I think Sanchez is way better at that. But besides ball distribution Cech was WC. Was Peter Smeichel or even Van De Sar great ball distribution? I think not and that is something we will have to continue to see, because that trend came with Pep and even then Pep had Valdez, maybe the best GK he had was Nuer, but not many who was good at ball distribution and WC at other areas.

Sad to tie but I'm happy to see the progress the team is making.

Don't think Connor will be one of the great, in fact I think eventually Lavia would be there, but if Connor can do what Azpi did for Chelsea, I will be very happy with that. While Azpi was a very limited player at times he was a great player to have.

I might add another one if can be bought for cheap. Giving that we are going for South America and especially two from Ecuador, I remember we was interested in Hincapie. I watched the qualifier of Bolivia vs Ecuador and he was good....granted it's Bolivia, but he is young and worth a shot me thinkgs.

Kendry Paez scored for Ecuador qualifier. Very good player and only 16, insane.

Yeah some of the best moves in Chelsea I saw with him. It's like Ronaldinho, for me he was the best ever but he only lasted a little while. But in that short time he lasted he did what no one else did in this planet. Hazard at Chelsea the same, I never saw someone did what he did at Chelsea.

As always mentioned I was always torn about him being sold. I knew he could be decent and he loves Chelsea. Only a big bid would have gotten me to sold. Now he ain't going nowhere, which is good.

Why is colwill playing as a lb? Going to be a long season.

Dumb loan. Should have send him to Portugal.

1 billion spent but couldn't solve the striker issue. Going to be a hard season.

I just want to see progress after a while. I don't expect it now. I expect that, up and down. Hence why I don't say much after every game. I remain calm. But by February if we are still bad then I will start to worry.

Will only get better if he don't have Gallagher in the mid? Lavia I guess is so out of form and not ready till mid September?

After watching the game with a cool mind, I thought there was a lot of positive. Much better then last season, and I always thought this season we might not be the most consistent but if we see progress i would be happy. I would like to see this progress by November/December if possible. A lot of player still pre season mode, and chemistry will grow in the coming weeks. I would like for us to drop the 3 CB. I think we have a good personal to play just a back 4 with 2 CB.

Chillwell as a winger is dumb. Hope he don't continue with that.

Going to be a long season again.

At the end solid window as well. I think in January we will get rid of more players that we couldn't get rid of now. Unless of course Saudi comes with some offers for our player in the next couple of days. Other then that happy with what we done especially after last season.
