Massive over reaction. I would expect in a few days you will be embarrassed at this...

Yes a returning from injury player getting cameo appearances is typically how it works. Look at how Chilwell was integrated. The problem for Ziyech is he currently looks off the pace and doesn't warrant a starting position. This was in contrast to Chilwell. STF was probably an autocorrect of SFL - I have been here for almost 10 years and I remember your criticism of all managers well 👍 I actually don't mind the debating with you on opposing subjects. Our club has had a bad philosophy of hiring and firing managers, this has left us with a ridiculous bloated squad where it is hard to shift players on. We need at least 3-4 seasons of stability to clear out the dead wood. Was SFL my first choice? No. BUT whilst he is here I will back him as much is possible. He achieved CL football in his first season - he has hit the requirements demanded of him. We definitely rode our luck, but he did it nonetheless. This has now earned him a shot at this season and extra players. If at the end of the season we haven't improved then Frank will have little defence of that and neither will I.

Well thanks for the depressing conversation guys and gals. I'm happy with the result - we have stopped leaking stupid goals and the team looks more organised. Lots of new players all needing to bed in and arguably the toughest league in the world. If we are still having shit at Xmas maybe I will change my mind about SFL management. Just sad to see a forum of Chelsea fans being super negative about every aspect all of the time...

He has played in the last few games since being declared fit? As in every chance he has had to participate- he has been. If he played from the start people would also complain...

You do realise they have spent more than us over 2 seasons 👍

You watched Ziyech right? He needs to stop reading the Willan book of corner taking. Frank is giving Ziyech plenty of opportunity but he's rusty as fuck and will be at least a month before he is anything like useful... Pulisic is very flat and Kai and Timo are adapting to a new league. It all takes time

Poch is not the answer....

Without them scoring 👍 That's a new feeling

Will take a point

Shaw handball ref plays on should be a booking and second yellow

Mendy MOTM

Yeah put words into my mouth? If the players are playing shit - then what can the manager do apart from change them? Is Lampard perfect no? Does he deserve all of the criticism on here? No also

It's ok it won't go to penalties 👍

Someone needs to introduce Tammy to protein bars - build some muscles

I'm happy about Mount

Haha Mount and Abraham.

Dude please... Our team isn't playing well - players aren't in form. It doesn't matter what fucking manager we have. Timo and Havertz first season- they need to learn. Ziyech looks dogshit but needs minutes. Pulisic playing 6/10 - all Lampards fault.

Handball?

How has it been a season? He's just signed 6 fucking players. Until everyone is match fit and playing in form - how can you know?

So what changes are we expecting then?

Because playing freestyle attacking football fucked us and he doesn't want to get sacked by Xmas. It's going to take time to sort this team- we all knew this.

Exactly those screaming sack Lampard he cannot coach a defence are now having a meltdown because we are not going gung-ho. It's fucking unbelievable. If Pulisic had scored and we had a penalty could be 2-0 up. This level of doom and gloom should be reserved for Arsenal fans...

Yeah every lucky bounce every 50/50 decision- why wouldn't you...

I think playing against 12 men we are doing ok

Typical fucking Ref and biased Neville Maguire fucking WWES Azpi and nothing.... Absolutely fucking corrupt to the core Neville banging on about a tap on Rashford
