• Enzo Maresca: “Wesley Fofana looks ok, he’s a fighter. He was playing (at the weekend) in pain.”

• Enzo Maresca to go with a very different line-up from Sunday against Newcastle.

• Enzo Maresca: "The club has never mentioned anything about needing to finish in the top four. They always said the target and idea is to build something important for four or five years, and we are working everyday to achieve that.”

• Enzo Maresca on Jadon Sancho: "For the last two games, he didn't play because of tactical reasons, nothing more than that. He’s done well since he arrived, but players can't maintain the same level all season."

Last I read, he's on contract till 2026. Is the player and his entourage really willing to waste away almost two years for whatever may be waiting ahead for him?

Assuming our guesses are right it's the pressure of the player wanting, Indeed needing to, play which makes sense of Chelsea's stance. If the player is so fixed on the hypothetical move we're talking about that he'd be willing to twiddle his thumbs for two seasons then Chelsea's position would be pointless.

If the latter occurs, his advisors' counsel will appear to be dumb. The prospect of squandering your formative years betting on "a mystery club" and hoping they are still interested in two seasons.

the very things I have been going bonkers over for years

🤬

the most galling thing is that most every player (CuCu being the only main exception) I went cray cray angry over when we shit away hundreds of millions on (collectively) them has absolutely, as I predicted and feared, BEEN UTTER SHITE (fucking Sterling included)

 

tonight was sheer torture for me

so many players I never ever wanted, do not like, all playing together in an stew of shit

shambolic

maddening

We already have Caicedo and Lavia, what would be the point of Tchouameni.

We won't have creativity in the mid. All defensive minded, we need some creativity.

We've created the most chances in the league and have 1 less goal in being tied with most goals scored. All this with Enzo phased out. 

Tchouameni is on £200kpw and for that reason I can't see this signing happening. I think Andrey Santos should replace Enzo if he continues this trajectory.

The ship has sailed getting a good goalkeeper for a while, we need to offload a few just to get another, it's to bloated already with bang average goalkeepers we can't get rid off.

Way too soon. Early season and only now we see the manager's hand in the team. I bet he's not done either, so lots more adjustments coming.

Players go in and out of form throughout the season. Aside from Caicedo (always a 7 with a small variance for me) and Cole, most other players have great games and poor ones. There are injuries and all, so I don't mind having good players fighting for spots one bit.

Last season nobody was fighting for spots given the lack of depth.

If Enzo isn't the player, then Lavia will need to turn into a more creative force, or we will have to go to the market. Perhaps making Cole drop a bit deeper... the goal is to compete with City, and the bar is very high. Liverpool showed that we are not really there yet.

Palace and Forest showed that we are nowhere near the top sides yet. 

One big win vs Wolves and a heart-attack performance vs Brighton aside, we haven't been that good this season. 

If United hammer us, and then Arsenal hammer us (Havertz will be out to prove a point once again), we're back to square 1.

Chalobah is better than Disaster , Tosin and Badiashile fact.

The fact that they neglected the goalkeeping and defense in such a way now shows the results of a complete tragedy in almost every match.
