Team attitude is improving.

Enzo. plays his cards right could become a Chelsea legend

Chalobah MOM for me. 100% determination and faced off 3 of the spuds cunts when it kicked off. Proper Chels-

Yes, I do believe Enzo will go on to become a legend here. He is improving and defo has got more of a physical edge to his game now. Contributing a lot more goals now also. Although I thought Chalobah was excellent, I would give to Caicedo. He was phenomenal also and made crucial tackles but bossed the game all around with the ball too and made it look so easy sometimes. Crucial win. Brentford is a tough one. They are a plucky outfit and we struggle against them but hopefully can put that right on Sunday.

A scruffy win is still a win. Pleased we didn't slip up with the majority of our rivals winning this week. A cleansheet to go with it as well.

[Fernando 6,533]

Yes what I wanted a win no matter how we end, parking the bus. 

I still see some progress this team is making that with this summer with the right buys can help us improve massively next season. 

I still want Enzo to continue as if we sack him another coach starts from scratch and time wasted. 

I would love for us to finish top 4 because that is more money but if it don't happen not the end. 

[Special Juan 27,616]

Good win, only just and Caicedo outstanding all night.

Got to love Ange cupping his ears when Spurs scored and then back track in an interview saying he just wanted the fans louder.....ha ha

Got proper mugged off, he's a dead man walking at that club and wouldn't be suprised to see him either sent packing today or when they are knocked out by Frankfurt

I don't think he's the right coach if we want to be top 4 or better in future seasons

If we're happy to hang around the top 6/7 and get Europa/Conference League, then Enzo might be fine.

The next 4 games will tell us everything we need to know about this group of players. 
Brentford, Ipswich, Fulham, Everton.....all 4 are winnable games but I wouldn't be shocked to see something like 2 wins, 2 losses.

Enzo has us playing football, managed 24+ first team players for more than half the season. 

At times he's at a loss for solutions but he also is learning as it's his 1st year. He's already got us from living around 14th position the whole season for a few years to battling towards the top.

I don't know what people want really. Sack him? Are you for real....

Let him have the summer break and work in the new talents coming through. He's changed the trajectory of our club and let's back him as supporters.

we played ok because NJ and Palmer back from injuries and the performance was slightly better  

If we won the next 4 games, I believe we can make at least the fifth place

Aren't the next set of fixtures just the reverse of the fixtures people where saying we were likely to win over Dec/Jan and that was the reason people where talking about a title chance? 

IMO, to get top 5 we need to win all of them. However, I am not confident at all about the away fixtures - Brentford and Fulham. Everton will likely also cause us problems playing Moyesball.

After that it is the top teams and we have proven consistently this season we love nothing more than going out to play for a draw against and bending over at the very first opportunity.

I don't see a certain three points amongst that bunch, tbh. Ipswich have already beaten us and after their surprise win away to Bournemouth, they'll have added motivation.

Shame Caicedo didn't get that goal - unbelievable performance from him as usual. Baffled that anyone does not rate this guy. Imo he's the most likeable player in the squad by far from a fan PoV, puts everything on the line for us game after game. Always turns up and steps up when others do not. There is nothing I dread more than him picking up an injury or a suspension - we just don't have enough to get by without him imo.

Shouldn't matter, if we are really going to be challenging for top 4, these are the sorts of games that we should be winning at home.  Same with Everton, they are always a scrappy side but we shouldn't be letting them come to the Bridge and beat us. 

Bournemouth had more than enough chances to get the 3 points, Ipswich had like 2 or 3 actual shots on goal and they both went in.
