  1. Our sharpest attacker vs Tottenham and looks very much nailed on to start here. I'd play him over Mudryk for sure
  2. Chalobah for Badiashile and James for RLC. Still very much in this tie
  3. Liverpool have had 2 horror seasons in the last few years and both times they might make top 4
  4. Who will buy? We are stuck with Kepa
  5. Thiago Silva should be back mid-April for the relegation crunch games vs Arsenal, Manchester United, Manchester City and Newcastle United
  6. He’s not average and a lot of players need to go before Kovacic.
  7. Badiashile not registered in Europe. Need to face Dortmund with Fofana - Koulibaly.
  8. His Spain team in the last Euros was really good. They were comfortably the better side in the semifinal vs Italy but ended up losing on penalties
  9. Contradicting info in the press today. Matt Law saying Leeds and Dortmund games are do or die for Potter Guardian saying Potter has time regardless of results in the next two.
  10. Yep - The LA dodgers have had a young coach for 6 years + now. But you can afford to do that in baseball
  11. Boehly and Co have badly misread the European football environment. They’ve come in, treated players like cattle (like in American sports you can trade players against their will) and given a young unproven coach a long contract. In American leagues you can do this but in football, the club will get financially punished for it finishing below 4th.
  12. When Boehly wants to get rid of player power at the club
  13. Yet to win a game since the window closed. Club really booked themselves into this situation handing Potter a long contract and a 50million payout for a sack
  14. One signing I really wish happened in 2010
  15. Sarri was different from the other two. He chose to leave and return to Italy. The players do down tools at Chelsea and its a known thing. So many ex players have spoken about it in interviews. This Athletic interview of Mikel is literally headlined - 'Player power is in every club, mafias. You do what you have to do to get the manager changed' https://theathletic.com/2453979/2021/03/23/mikel-exclusive-player-power-is-in-every-club-mafias-you-do-whatever-you-need-to-get-the-manager-changed/
  16. Looking like it. Needs to be held accountable and I think the owners - for all their course correction in the recruitment - got this appointment wrong. Tuchel figured out on the flight to London that he needs to play a 3-4-3 with this group. He was not able to evolve us tactically or get the attackers to play well but at least we were competitive in games.
  17. Its over. I've long given up - We won't make the Conference league this season. Have to convince Reece to stay on and rebuild in the summer.
  18. Lmao “Chelsea amortising transfers and points over 8 years”
  19. Hope Azpi is okay. They're not showing him on my feed
  20. Feel like this is too big a squad and too many big egos for Potter to handle too. Club needs to look up who are the options to replace now
  21. There's been a lot of upheaval but Potter is on 21 pts in 16 league games. Gotta go
  22. Even at Arteta's worst phases, the players believed he had a plan. I don't see how Potter gets the players to believe in him if the last few months are anything to go by.
