  1. We actually had a good young squad ready-made for the next 10+ years, but Mourinho sold the majority of them.
  2. I actually really feel sorry for Kante for coming to the club to play with so many players who couldn't give a fuck.
  3. For me, even 3/4 years ago there was some more hope though, despite lower finishes. We had some of the most exciting youngsters in the world to come into the team. We had a lot of players from Belgium who had the potential to grow together and develop a real understanding. The canvas was wide open to establish a philosophy, a vision as you say, and a real an identity for Chelsea in the next 10 years. Sadly, all of the potential the team had was given to a man who took a wrecking ball to all of it, Mourinho. Destroyed it all in a short space of time for a solitary title; was it worth it? Personally, I would have rathered finishing 3rd as we did in 2013 knowing that we were truly trying to build something special. We have been left with a shell of a team, devoid of the hope it had in abundance in 2013. So because of what's happened, I've turned more pessimistic. More people seem to have done the same. Maybe it's more realistic, I don't know. What I do know is that this team has been left in a sorry state and I don't see how we're going to get out it.
  4. It's what we get for having the same defence since 2013 to be honest. Think about how sad that is for just a moment. Please tell me where the people who think 'the board has done well' are now?
  5. Jesus Conte, you are getting this completely wrong mate. Fair enough, we have shite players in some positions, but for a team to go out in a derby and play like this, with no intensity or game-plan, I'm sorry, but it falls on the manager. Particularly, a death-wish playing Ivanovic. Absolute death-wish. Couldn't give a flying fuck about tracking back, thinking he's a winger. Stupid bollox has never been a RB. Azpi lazy as well. Cahill completely clueless since Swansea. Luiz still needs a babysitter to tell him what to do at the age of 30.
  6. Oscar is shite as well. He can close down, sure, but what else does he do? Nothing. If he played, people would be asking for Fabregas but he's the same; can pass but does nothing else. And if he's not on form he is practically useless. All of our midfielders, bar Kante, are extremely limited players.
  7. He reminds me on a weekly basis how much of an idiot Mourinho is. How can you have a kid like this training in front of you on a daily basis and just say 'nah, Oscar is better'? I mean, how is it possible? How much of a stubborn bastard do you have to be?
  8. Conte doing his best David Moyes impersonation. You can stop it now Antonio.
  9. Irrelevant when he is clearly having a mare tonight. From the start to the subs (lack of for so long), he got it completely wrong tonight.
  10. Just waiting until they score to make a change? We had momentum ffs and now it's gone because no attacking changes were made in time.
  11. Besides the assist, Matic is playing really shit. Fabregas should be on.
  12. Midfield needs more Nianggolan. Kante can't do everything by himself ffs.
  13. Sometimes I question how we managed to get him.
  14. This is a team that was schooled by Burnley and now this.
  15. lol, wtf did you expect. Ivanovic is a stupid prick and the defence is fucked without JT. I don't know if the players are super shit or Conte has got it completely wrong. Looking like both tbh.
  16. Get that armband off him ffs. Such an embarrassment at times. A captain should be articulate on the pitch and lead by example. Ivanovic is none of those. He would rather blame a youngster like Zouma for his mistakes than take responsibility for being shit.
  17. Can't really be wasting money on even more players that we'll inevitably loan out and never be able to sell. I'd rather play Chalobah ffs.
  18. So we can only loan players when we want to get rid of them, but get raked over the coals when we to sign anyone? Excellent business model.
  19. Initial impressions are that he seems a bit gangly and cumbersome. Not sure why we don't just sign Rodriguez; younger, cheaper, probably better than an ex-Bolton/Sunderland player and can deliver quality crosses.
