Friday night at the Bridge. Let's get the 3 point and kick start our season. I don't care who starts and what is the formation I only want them 3 points and completely trust in Poch. Up the Chels!

We just need to start building consistency. West Ham showed we are not there yet, but this run of games can really help. Please, no more back three. 

[Duppy Conqueror 1,494]

Sanchez,Gusto,Silva,Colwill,Chilwell,Enzo,Caicedo,Santos,Sterling,Jackson,Maatsen or Noni would be my team in a 4-3-3 formation. Although Sterling been good at RW tempted to switch him to LW where he can be more of a goal threat.if so play Noni at RW,if not Maatsen on LW.Save the more drastic changes for Wimbledon.need to get that first W in the bag.

Hopefully we can finally get a win going or it looks similar to last season

If we don’t win this we can just stop close the men’s seniority team. No matter how shit the ref will be or if they luck in 3 deflected goals. We have to beat them. They are by far the worst team in the league. Our squad is worth 10x theirs. Absolutely no excuses. Poch said, performances are more important than results at this point but not winning here would crush the confidence of this young fragile group for months.

Jackson needs to get on the scoresheet here. 

[Blue Armour 4,289]

Jackson getting off the mark will help this team.

Not sure from where else a steady return of goals are going to come from with Nkunku (and James) out injured, so we need Jackson in some kind of scoring form.

Maybe we can win this one.

Funny thing is: we only won 1 competitive game since we sacked Potter 😭😂

Bc it’s a squad full of anxious kids and mentally fragile snowflakes that lack killer instinct and eagerness to compete

We basically changed the whole squad and still we have the same problems 🥶

We made it worse. We got rid of title winning experience and replaced it with kids. Not that I shed a tear for mount and Havertz. But having a hard worker like Kante, a smart tactician like Joeginho or a serial winner like Kovacic around at least you can help a young player

No way it will get worse than being 12th last season with the biggest bunch of losers in Chelsea history.

Please explain the logic here, how can you call actual CL winners, "the biggest bunch of losers in Chelsea history."

Wouldn't that statement be factually incorrect? note that I'm not discussing whether you must like the players or not, just what they actually achieved.

Just a random run of destiny, u cant explain it. Not even Chelsea fans thought its possible before the season started. 

They didnt perform before that and didnt perform after that. Not a single one of this team is actually performing well elsewhere atm. 

The lack of character this team showed last season is unprecedented and unforgivable. They didnt even try. They didnt care about this club whatsoever, not a bit. Lowest league position in the last 30 years and they seemed ok with that. If u consider the amount of money they cost and earned they actually ARE the biggest losers in Chelsea history.

Sorry but this is revisionism.

Kante was perpetually injured after we won the CL. We should have sold him that summer and bought Tchouameni, like I was begging the team to do.

We would have had Tchouameni plus a net £20m or so.

I was just beside myself when we did neither.

Yes, the midfield situation was one of the many big sins of the Roman/Marina regime in their last 3 years at this club. Bought no midfielder in 20/21 and loaned Saul in 21/22 instead of rejuvenating the midfield properly.
