Benitez was good , got us 3rd and won europa whilst playing some decent stuff. The way the Stamford bridge crowd treated him was embarrassing 

Your the one who's embarrassing bruv slag off Chelsea fans and stick up for that fat cunt. You ain't a Chelsea fan mate I'm convinced of that no one slags off the fans more than you do proper plastic.

Yea that was disappointing for sure. He should have gone with Oscar who seemed to care more about the cup than certain senior players

yes this season has been very bad for them 

and winning portuguese league don't mean anything to be a Chelsea manager 

there is a huge difference be a coach in some portuguese team and be a coach in one of the best clubs in the world 

its too much for him. at least now 

[milka 3,346]

yes, but Amorim has the success to be an influential figure among their fans

there is one view outside that see only results and other view inside that follow day after day how the team play and read what their supporters say 

he is a good manager with good potential but calm down a little bit when we thinking about him to managing our club.

if we don't count di matteo, all the other major trophies that we won were with world class managers (mou, ancelotti, conte and tuchel) 

there is a standard here and we need to follow this standard

That right there is part of the reason we are some of the most hated fans on the planet, ignorance at it's highest, ten hag won the Dutch league, and he's turned utd into a monster, Jose came here after been the manager at Porto!!!!! I remember that worked out pretty well did it not? What a stupid fucking arrogant comment to make.

Mourinho won a Champions League. Look at I said.

Its a big step and Ten Hah, with Ajax, get a UCL semi-final. 

Total different.

He compares himself with Arteta but can we see him doing what Arteta did today? I don't think so, he is too nice for that.  

This is what top class managers do. Arteta introduced today ESR in mid first half for injured Trossard. He played horrible and in minute 69 he was replaced for Nelson who got minute later assist and winner goal in injury time. Pure masterclass.

Well, you could also say that he f*cked it up by introducing ESR in the first place, instead of Nelson. Also, if we had the luck that Arsenal had lately, we would not be in such a bad position at this point. Very lucky against Manchester United, Aston Villa, Bournemouth and others. We had a ton of bad luck against Dortmund, West Ham, even Spurs. It is what it is, this is football. But things will start going our way once again. I have a feeling that we will defeat Arsenal on their ground and send the title to City. 

On a side note, what I liked about Potter yesterday is that he did everything for the win. The change of system, the first 11, the subs. Should've done this way earlier, if you ask me. I understand that everyone wants Chelsea to be a 4-3-3 or whatever team, but the situation is as bad as it can possibly get. Go back to what we know best. Same should be done against Dortmund on Tuesday. Chilwell looked great again and I am sure Reece will cook, should we play a back 3 again. Personally, I am starting to build a bit of confidence.

If we manage to get through against Dortmund, this season can still be saved. And I am not talking about winning the UCL, as I find it impossible. I am talking about creating a good atmosphere around the team, scoring some goals, beating the opponents that we should beat and not allowing Arsenal to win the league (lol).

You could say the very same thing on facebook conversation of my sunday league team and no one would bat an eye. The only difference is Chelsea used to win CL and we are having tactical briefings in form of barbecue and beer 😂

Thing is about Arsenal is they have that belief. 2-0 goals and didn't just throw their hands up and think mehh they kept going and won. Whereas we go a goal down or the other team get a equaliser and that's it. Chasing them the rest. He definitely has put that confidence in the team whereas I don't know what our half talk usually does cause half the time come out worse.

[Mhsc 876]

Don't really think Todd was impressed. Saw us revert to a formation he wanted rid of and all we got out of it was a scrappy 1-0 from a corner. If we lose against Dortmund I hope he we see someone appointed the following morning.

Yup go a goal down and we will have loads of possession outside their box, but pose no threat until the last minute when a desperate ball is launched into the penalty area. How times have changed
