Turns out, noone is patient 😂 Are you serious about the club being without CL for years? One year - fine. I've also admitted that Chelsea has been through boom and bust and boom cycles before. It's always a risk with 6 (and now 7) clubs fighting for top 4. Any longer, and it's going to be a disaster financially. We also risk losing players like James., who will be courted by more successful clubs. Since you have compared us with Arsenal before, Arsenal of the past decade is what we'll become if we keep going on this path., and I'll say bollocks to that. Who wants to go through decades of mediocrity and lose all our best players to other clubs, and for what? For a one in a million season that Arteta is having currently? For every Arteta, there are many more Ole's and Moyes type stories. And bear in mind, Chelsea isn't a club that was struggling for top 4. It needs a little surgery, not a resurrection. What is it that justifies taking the club several steps backwards? I can understand supporting Potter and giving him time, but there should be levels to this.

It doesnt matter what I want, it doesnt matter what you want. We are irrelevant. I just said that the new hierarchy is willing to be patient a lot, to a point where we dont understand it. And yes, Chelsea became a club struggling for Top4 in the last 5 years. And we wouldnt have reached Top4 under Tuchel this season, thats for sure.

Do you have a crystal ball that tells you so, mystic Meg? I am of the opinion that even at Tuchels worst, it wasn't as bad as freefalling like we are now. Sure, he wasn't a world class manager but he was a solid in the tier just below that. Every team in the world, from PSG to Madrid, would clamour for Tuchel because, simply put, he is the best availible manager. I don't get these comparisons besmirching the good name of our UCL winning manager. It's kind of like in Animal Farm (George Orwell), when the pigs all blame the problems on snowball and use fake stats to try convince the animals that life is better than before under snowball. Very apt that book symbolises the end of the soviet union while a certain Russian left us last year too. The pigs liked making speeches about their fucking vision too.

This squad is far too talented and far too expensive to let rot under a manager who isn’t up to it. I doubt it. Owners are not known to care about fans protests aslong as their doing it in the stadium (ie while paying them for the privilege). Only way to get their attention is for Stamford Bridge to be half empty. OneMoSalah and Johnnyeye 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is not posting anything but he liked some Chelsea content. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was vice captain and generally well liked in the team. And a bit of an odd choice, considering that we have loads of wingers, and very few CMs. OneMoSalah 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That - as a manager/coach is your role to fix and control. It was the first sign of toxic I saw. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
