Only the solid start and awful opponents' runs gave us the Top 4. That is not going to repeat for sure. We have had a history of starting the season well and then completely falling away from November onward (or a tad later). 2010/11, 2012/13, 2017/18 seasons all come to mind. And this term has been no different either. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
killer1257 3,282 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Asking for Lampard's sack is just as ridiculous as asking for Sarri's sack when you realistically look at who we have at our disposal. Like someone else mentioned, we've been fortunate all season on how shit United, Spurs, and Arsenal have been. Last Season we also had prime Hazard. This Season we have Willian as a starter Gesendet von meinem SM-G920F mit Tapatalk MoroccanBlue 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Vesper 30,186 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 btw Leicester only drew today Victimpool basically clinched the title less than a 3% chance they blow a 10 point lead with 21 games to go, especially as Shiity are now 17 points back (with a game in hand though atm) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Iggy Doonican 4,186 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 Lampard is out of his depth we all know it the job has come to soon for him. I said earlier in the season he needs an experienced number two in such a big job as a novice manager. Lose to the yids next week and Lampard will be in trouble because the way we are playing I can't see any end to this downhill slump. Goodwill can only go so far and some of us are near breaking point already other managers have been sacked for less (I'm not advocating Lampard should be sacked) but four out five defeats against teams in terrible form is not acceptable and legend or not you can't overlook how shit we've been and the buck stops with him. 11Drogba, Johnnyeye, Vesper and 1 other 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Starman60 1,343 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 We moved the ball way to slowly. Our passing was woeful. Defenders hoofing long balls across the pitch way too often. Aspi was rubbish today. We really only had one real effort (Emerson header) on goal, oh and a long range from Kovacic. And I've said this before that Mason Mount is way too light weight for this type of game and is scared to get stuck in. Taking off Pulisic was a mistake. He should have taken Mount off, pushed Pulisic into the centre and just brought CHO onto the wing will Willian on the opposite side. Bats never got a smell when he came on.We are just inept at breaking down a well organised 4 4 2. But look, our position in the table is a false one. We are not top 4 material. Top 8 maybe, but not top 4. Thesara 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll be surprised if we make it. What sucks though is it's going to hurt us when it comes to making signings in the summer. Vesper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Superblue 6,372 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 3 minutes ago, Jason said: Not excusing the recent losses but the funny thing is we exceeded expectations earlier this season - and arguably even raised them - by winning matches, going on that 7-game winning streak etc. Now, we're at the point where most of us had expected us to be in, struggling for performances and results. Any sane Chelsea fan would admit how fortunate we were last season to make top 4 and (barely) capitalised on Spurs completely falling apart, and United and Arsenal struggling for any form of consistency. We also didn't have Leicester to contend with last season either. Losing our best player and main attacking output without the ability to replace him was always going to be a huge problem. How many of us questioned where the goals were going to come from in the summer when Hazard left and RLC was crocked. Other key players last season have regressed massively (Kepa, Azpi, Pedro, Giroud, Luiz - I know we sold him but watching him at Arsenal is a 'what we could have had') and others have been crocked for long periods. The squad we had was never going to contend with this and challenge at the top end of the table. We've been incredibly fortunate that the young players gave us a boost and we've found a striker capable of scoring goals.

Pizy 18,918 Posted December 14, 2019 Share Posted December 14, 2019 I swear to god Billing intercepted the ball with a sliding tackle 10 times today. Just easily cut out everything we tried to play. Rudiger and Zouma each blasted the ball out of play 10 times. None of our 4 players who played wide did a single thing. Midfield totally nullified. And then we once again give away a one in a million fluke goal. Vesper 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
