Laylabelle 9,535 Posted April 21, 2022 Share Posted April 21, 2022 Must win..our home form has been crap. We've conceded 8 in the last 2 league home games..lost 2 derbies at home Plus if Arsenal/Spurs win be 2 behind us. Though game in hand but that isn't a guarantee..

We have a few out, but West Ham have actually rested more key players than I expected. Rice, Antonio and Bowen all on bench. Only one recognised CB for them too. Let's get back on track.

Pizy 18,928 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Reece injured yet again? 😩😩😩 Man, if we lose this I’m almost certainly done for the rest of this season. Just going to check out, hope for the best, and be back next season. Not going to make myself angry and annoyed watching us choke away a comfortable position.

Can't get over the fact AC is actually starting considering his recent form whilst Chalobah can't get a look in. Tuchel showing favouritism?

He might have a whole host of shortcomings, but he wasn't directly involved in giving the opposing team a leg up and didn't have the nerve to run away from the second half. Not to mention, AC is seemingly set to join Barca, so why are we still giving him game time on top of that? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laylabelle 9,535 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 As it stands Arsenal 2 behind us.. lose this and lose Thursday as well then be game advantage gone. I dont think we'll slip out of top 4 but we need to finish 3rd! Be ridiculous not to. Hopefully we can win convincing today cause our last 3 home games are lost 3 and conceded 11...woopeee. Plus the last 2 league home games were London club losses on a stupid scoreline...need to get going again Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Milan 17,959 Posted April 24, 2022 Share Posted April 24, 2022 Just leave James alone, put him in blanket and do not rush anything. If he plays only 1 game in the rest of the season, so be it. The cup final is the priority, assuming we do not experience a monumental fuck up in the league. bigbluewillie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, those rare mistakes are catastrophic but he’s a decent footballer at least. Sarr makes a handful of schoolboy errors every match. Leaving back passes to the keeper way short, dwelling on the ball too long and getting caught out, dreadful passes that put his teammates in trouble, repeatedly getting caught out of position and having to foul. He doesn’t belong on the pitch for Chelsea. Only time I’d ever be fine seeing Sarr in the Chelsea team is if the rest of our best defenders are in the team with him. If Chilly, Reece, Rüdiger, and Silva we’re all in and Sarr was playing with them as the 3rd CB I’d be okay. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With that in mind, AC shouldn't be starting games. That should be the bottom line. Edit: Wishes do come true. Mr Tummy ache is replaced by Chalobah.
