Chelsea 1-2 Brighton

[milka 3,394]

We just looked ridiculous and pathetic against players like Welbeck, March and some kid from Paraguay who looked like Messi in his prime years  and scored the  goal from  his home . If Brighton had scored at least 50% of all 20+ chances we would have gone to 8

And all this at Stamford Bridge.

And we still have games with United, City, Arsenal and Newcastle .

From what we see now there was no point in sacking Potter - given that we did not hire a permanent manager.
My principal worry about Potter was lest he scraped home in the champions league with easy draws -Dortmund then maybe Milan or Inter- and then claim the position for next year.
So I wanted him out after the 4-0 to City and the defeat from Fulham.
But unfortunately Lampard is non existent. He can't even motivate anybody.

Agreed. That was my point to @Tomo on a diff thread. Relegation chance is negligible, CL looks like a pipe dream at this point, and we are still paying him... he's not going to make that kind of money anytime soon, so he will be on a long vacation.

Tbf, it takes at least a few weeks w/ plenty of training time (which we don't have) to start getting some ideas imprinted in a team -- not that Lampard has that many good ideas as a manager... his resume is just as scant as Potter's.

Attitude is shit. When you have players who don't care.. what else do you have?... 

[Special Juan 28,141]

Well we took the choice to make the so called club legend an interim when I said at the time it should have been the manager with time to see out the season and asses the squad. But what we have done is thrown ourselves back by two months and put this fucking amateur in charge of a bunch of hopeless gutless cunts who don't give a fuck.

This football club is finished as it stands under this Yank fucker, what a complete mess

Spot on

[We Hate Scouse 10,326]

The funny thing is when Todd and co came in slagging the disorganisation in the Abramovich era. Jokers.

[robsblubot 3,595]

There is no time tho. I don't see ANY manager in the world coming here and sorting this shit. Team does not even physically compete against other teams... other players look fitter/quicker like today. I think at this point it goes beyond mentality, and a locker room speech.

Even more reason to question what was going on before, but it will takes at least a couple of months to get this team running again--and only with the right people behind prepping the team with time. So, only next season. Now, thinking about next season, then getting the right person is more important than getting them here earlier.

I too have zero confidence in the owner. Looks like footballing culture wasn't a thing he knew, or cared about, and thought his way was better.

he doesn't understand that football is NOT at all like the the US sports leagues

they have no relegation, no transfer fees and teams can go from fuckall winning history and ina couple years turn into elite squads, then collapse again

you can literally trade and draft pick your way to the top in a few years

the turnover rate on rosters in yank pro sports is insane

with football rosters it is much slower on balance, when you try and move too much you lose team chemistry unless you have a WC manager

now, with transfer fee explosions, and salary explosions and especially FFP you will never see a Roman style instant impact again

Boehly tried and spectacularly failed

 

[Fulham Broadway 17,313]

The worst thing is there is no attempt to fix it. Current slide would have been stopped under Abramovich 20 games ago

[Gundalf 806]

Time to channel his Russian oil mafia boss. Threaten their families 🤣

[robsblubot 3,595]

Players must have experienced some real ted lasso moments I'm sure. 🙄

One of the most embarrassing performances I have seen in as long as I can remember.

Boehly & Eghbali both need to sell up and fuck off. They’ve destroyed this club in 1 year. Absolutely horrendous. And it doesn’t look like its going to stop. Another £600m on players and yet we’ve got Frank Lampard as manager as a publicity stunt to improve their reputation because they know every decision they’ve made this year has made them look as thick as shit. Two of the biggest clowns I think the PL have ever encountered as owners.

Genuinely think its time the fans stopped going to games and send them a message. What an absolute shambles from top to bottom. I haven’t been in a while but I certainly wont be going back anytime soon. Got better things to waste money on than going to watch whatever the fuck that was.

How many times have they been in the dressing room now as well? Fuck sake might as well start picking the team.

imagine these 2 going into the dressing room and trying to inspire the players with their cringe american voices. Will only make things worse. Pair of losers. We need Boehly out banners in SB and the rest of the fans stay home. Make it clear these american donkeys are not welcome at the bridge.

[cosmicway 1,333]

Is it fair to accuse Boehly ?
How much did Abramovitch spent from 2015 to 2021, average per year ?
I don't believe Boehly personally judged the players he bought.
We would n't expect him to do that, even if he was a 300 year old Englishman.

He decided to spend all the money early on. He also hired a dogshit manager 

[Cosmin 2,484]

Boehly is just the face of the consortium. He may not be the only one who makes the decisions, but he certainly is the one playing boss in front of the fans and media.

Everybody was crazy about Potter back in September.
We were n't but because we disagreed with the sacking of TT, not because we knew Potter was d*gshit.
