WIthout top GK , CB , Winger you can't do anything our squad still Conference League level . 

Even with those players, it won't change. 

Do we really need to trial Reece in midfield when Essugo and Santos are available to play ?

I bet many of these players feel lied to. Especially the likes of Palmer. They were sold the dream of us building for major trophies, to dominate football for years to come, to be a part of this ‘project’ and yet all we seem to do is gear up for profit margins by searching for the best talent in The World who we refuse to even use in ‘Mickey Mouse cup group stages’.

 

no wonder Palmer is sitting in the dugout looking lost.

 

This club is an absolute shambles. 

[Special Juan 28,133]

The club has changed and it stinks from top to bottom, it's now about making money rather than making money from winning. They look at players like Santos and Petrovic as cash cows, both will be sold for 30/40M in the next months/year, I guarantee it.

And as fans were sold the dream. The rebuild excuse is dumb cause we've been rebuilding for the last 4 years or so. Some point gotta be seen as a fail.

Building for 4 years and this is what we have… a desperate need for a GK, CB, backup LB, LWer, another ST.

It’s clear for all to see and if you don’t see it, your brain has been cross wired.

I’m gonna say something that is painful for me to admit, but I’m starting to question whether Enzo Fernandez is viable here long term. I really like him as a personality, his passion on the pitch, and at his best he’s great. But man, he just fails repeatedly in matches against opponents who are very aggressive and intense. On the ball he’s super careless with it and off the ball he’s so painfully slow that it looks like he’s running in cement boots.

When he was at Benfica you saw him playing deeper as sort of that tempo controlling midfielder spraying it around and creating magical chances. We saw that initially when he moved here as well. I remember an early Liverpool game where he completely destroyed them single-handedly and ran the show. These days Maresca deploys him so high up that he is often seen pressing all the way to the keeper.

For me he needs to play in an area where he has space and can see everything in front of him. Having him high up takes away his passing and vision when we’re attacking and it makes us super vulnerable when the ball is turned over defensively.

It’s the exact sort of issue we had with both Fabregas and Jorginho at times. The difference with those guys was Cesc had generational passing skills and creative vision and J5 was immaculate with the ball and impossible to dispossess. Enzo is neither.

For the first time ever I actually find myself wondering if we should listen to an offer if Madrid comes in for him as is rumored. 

The reason you're so critical of him is due to him playing in blue. I've never know a set of fans who are unable or unwilling to support their own players.

If Chelsea were linked to the Premier League midfielder who's created more chances from open play calendar year than any other, you'd be all over it. When you find that that midfielder already pays for Chelsea, then you'll find excuses to rubbish him.

I guess you wasn't one of the fans singing "We've got our Chelsea back"

No other club has invested into a clubs future more than our owners, and it's still not enough for some. The fact that we're back in the Champions League so soon after the club has had to change almost everyone and everything, from the bottom to the top, is a massive achievement.

The squad last year walked the Conference League and qualified for the Champions League, and you still think that Conference League is it's level?

So is that for Chelsea and you for the foreseeable? All over a dodgy 30 mins?
