closed Chelsea 3-0 West Ham

[bigbluewillie 1,867]

This has turned onto the Mana thread

So to offer input Mourinho has just lost again, that's 2 in a row a 2-1 and a 2-0 [sound familiar] playing the most deplorable football in the EPL.

So what should happen? the Spuds equivalent to Mana have Mou out losing 2 in a row as unacceptable, or does that only apply to Lamps.

Pressure is on! Lose this and be suddenly 4 behind Man U if their game stays the same..win and go above Spurs..hurrah

[ZaynChelsea 423]

We have to win tomorrow. After spending so much money we are struggling to leave a mediocre ManU team behind us. Inacceptable.

Manure just gone 4-0 up after 36 mins

Man United is almost top of the league. They still have one match to play

Nothing but 3 points tomorrow, already after tow defeats the table looks bleak.

Again, a win here can put us in a good spot before City. 

Arsenal play City midweek before the Emirates

We play Villa then at home with everyone fit (knock on wood)

Some random injury popping up after a free week under Lampard.

We must win 9 points before City. That should make us more positive.

In the next 24 hours FL has to give the best motivational speech to the players, because his job is on The line. Put aside his legendary status at the club and the adulation of the fans, the club has invested massively to at least challenge for the top 4 this season and win a cup trophy, anything less is sackable. To say tomorrow is a must win game is an understatement, anything less than a win is unacceptable, and I don’t want to hear excuses about not having the full team, Liverpool are getting results without nearly quarter of there team for a while, why can’t we.

Apart from last season when Ole turned it around and saved his job, a team that is mid table or worse by Christmas doesn’t finish in the top 4. 

This season started late. Not sure your comment applies

I am surprised so many people think FL’s job is on the line over the next couple of matches. I would find that surprising if true.

If we don't get back to winning ways fast and win the next few matches, then I think his job will be on the line. Lampard may say he needs time, which is true, but at the same time, we can't be spending all the money in the summer and then be languishing in mid-table, be behind even the likes of Everton, Leicester, Southampton, Aston Villa!

This. And it’s entirely doable:

Yep, and the idea that Lampard should be given time like Klopp or Pep is nothing but blind faith. Good managers must be given time but if you see a manager with questionable tactical calls, lack of in-game management then there is no need to go on longer with him. This is his second season and by the end of this if Chelsea is still playing basketball matches, I would be clamouring for a change. 

His time here will be viewed positively because of the situation he walked into. But if he cannot take this squad to the elite European level then we search for a manager who can.

I don't think we played up and down for the last two games.

If he doesn't win against Westham then it'll start to look that way imo
