Ouzo overload or Communist infiltration ? Either way Preston were in Championship last time I looked

We'll see the difference between an organised team and a load of disjointed individuals next Sunday

Hi There is the ticket exchange Ticket exchange | Official Site | Chelsea Football Club (chelseafc.com) but not sure if it is useable for Friendlies. The few that post here only a few go to matches so little chance of swaps here. As far as wearing your shirt, shouldnt present too much of a problem as its a friendly- but if it kicked off you'd be the first to be removed. Enjoy the match !

Think its more nuanced than that. He was by far the most creative when England won the U23 Euros without conceding a single goal, but agree can see limitations with Marescas set up.

Neto's recent injury record gives some cause for concern with two hamstring injuries last season that saw him miss over 100 days of competitive football - he'll have to join the doctors waiting room at Cobham

Back of the Neto !

Creative, takes players on, gets to the byline, decent shot

So thats near enough 200m so far this window - we need to be thick skinned when fans laugh at us when we're 15th in the table at Christmas

Agree with that - apart from Sterling

Good way of looking at it OFAG. Messi has escalators for his 100m car collection into his apartment -thanks to fans. The lure of fame and money is crazy to the point more than 15 000 children are trafficked into Europe every year with false promise of a trial at PL clubs. Modern day slavery to all intents and purposes

We should keep Madueke. Just an opinion, like arseholes, we all have them

Steve Mclaren presser in Jamaica ''Now ere dis, youm bladclaats. Mia tap dia boss man. Wicked''

The difference is Clearlake are just the current custodians of our club. They, and all other clubs are fuck all without fans and they know it.

Hi If youre not going to park in the capital, prob best to get Thameslink train from Carshalton or nearby to Wimbledon then District Line Also info here Getting To Stamford Bridge | Official Site | Chelsea Football Club (chelseafc.com)

Come on Boehly -you might have sacked most of the academy staff, but theres plenty of 16 year old Brazilians we can give 7 year contracts to before loaning out

The football world looks on in astonishment as a club with a rich, colourful history is used as an investment vehicle, a trading platform, by venture capitalist owners. Accountancy wheezes such as selling the two hotels on the forecourt to a different part of the business, and doing similar with the women’s team, resemble acts of desperation rather than visionary commercial nous. A couple of missteps with fans, including increased ticket prices, unpopular corporate schemes such as the Dugout Club and withdrawing subsidies for travelling away fans have met the ire of militant – and well-organised – supporters’ organisations. Success under Roman Abramovich brought comparative serenity, but now long-serving Blues find themselves harking back to their club’s 1970s financial collapse for a spell as fractious.

Osimhen Transfer News is worth a search

Several media saying Osimhen is ''final piece of the Chelsea jigsaw'' Last time i remember them saying that was when we signed Fernando the Wonderhorse

Thats how it used to be - a few domestic pre season games -the most exotic pre season might be against a Scottish team. Main aim of US friendlies is marketing. The US pitches also very dry, something a lot of Euro teams not used to nowadays

Samu will arrive for 35M- he never played once for Madrid first team or even the reserve team. Gallagher is to be thrown out along with Chabloah, Chilwell, Broja, Petrovic - players who were loyal to Chelsea and wanted to stay. While Lukaku and Kepa who treated Chelsea so badly have been pampered with full pay loans and soon to be sold for next to nothing.

Maresca will have to fine tune just how high up the pitch his defenders can play for 90 minutes, before hes dumped. It's one thing to play deeper; giving defenders time to "see, think, then move at speed" and another to play high; forcing defenders to "think at speed and move at speed and at the same time". We have defenders that cant turn quick enough with the high line - Bada and Disaster shouldnt be there. Whats the betting the club will be in the same situation in a years time ? Talking up another mediocre manager/season ?

Welcome -we look forward to your views and comments 🙂

They prob dont want to risk their investment getting injured

Quite an obsession with cunts, thats because he is one

Gallagher’s impending departure from Stamford Bridge has ‘saddened’ Petit who believes Chelsea are making another mistake by sanctioning his departure. ‘There is always something happening at Chelsea,’ ‘It does make you want to pull your hair out sometimes – it doesn’t look like this ownership group has learned from any of the mistakes they have made. ‘I’m very frustrated with what’s happening at the club. I’ve been worried for the last two years under this ownership, there have been so many bad decisions and so many changes. ‘They have changed everything. The environment is not that same at Chelsea anymore, inside and outside the club. The connection with the fans is missing. ‘I look at the project, signing all these young players for huge money on incredibly long contracts and it doesn’t make sense. ‘The Americans have spent over a billion and what did they get? Some of these players have been given massive contracts without achieving anything in the game. ‘Then you look at the players they are selling. They are selling their best players and academy graduates. Conor Gallagher was Chelsea’s best player last season and was practically the captain for most of it because Reece James was injured. ‘He plays for the national team. He came through the academy and you’re going to sell him for how much? £30 million? He’s probably the best midfielder in the squad. ‘How can Gallagher be worth £30 million is Manuel Ugarte is worth £60 or £70 million? It doesn’t make sense to me. I don’t get it. I don’t understand the decisions being made at the club. ‘They must sell players because they signed so many and are counting the cost of those mistakes in the transfer market. £30 million for Conor Gallagher is a bargain in this market. ‘They should have done more to keep him. They’ve been trying to sell him for two years. I think he’s been disrespected. They should have offered him a contract in line with the best paid players at the club. ‘Give him the same money you offered to those players who are strangers to the fans and who aren’t academy players.’ Petit, who spent two full seasons at Stamford Bridge, added: ‘Chelsea need to be careful. ‘It’s really important to keep those English players, players that have grown up in the club, in the squad. You need them there to set the standards and to keep the culture. Emmanuel Petit
