RLC and Kenedy were well protected from injury on the bench.

those, and to a somewhat lesser unknown degree Traore, have all shown they arent afraid to take chances and play hard.

cant wait to start seeing what dressing-room drama gets leaked the next couple weeks. certainly feels like we've reached the nuclear meltdown zone.

Reports that Chelsea is looking at replacing Mou with Diego Simone.

Sooooooooo Ivanovic is reportedly out for a month..... but it looks like Zouma is going to fill in at RB. I don't know why Jose refuses to play an actual RB at RB.

Zouma and right back is laughable. Play Dave at RB and Baba at LB and then let Zouma play CB if you want him on the field.

I would rather Zouma at DM before RB.

Good call lynx. I like Hazard having to sit. His absolute lack of effort has been a killer this year. Maybe it will motivate him.

October 20.

We still suck.

Will we ever create a goal from possession/passing move again?

I expected this to be honest, so I'm not upset. It's not the worst result in the world. I do miss the time when we would have found some way to claim three points.

Eventually.

You can see players starting to come to life. Hazard looked more creative and seemed to take people on with more confidence. Matic is really starting to play A LOT better. Dave was superb and made sure Yarmolenko didn't do anything. This team will find form, sooner or later. And I assume an addition or two will be made in January.

The result isn't that bad but the lack of anything going forward and inability to put together any decent spells of possession or passing moves is just pathetic.

Clean sheet at least but it was a scrambling effort for most of the second half.

This team still has a looooong way to go.

Huge match this weekend though got to find a way to win at 4th place West Ham.

Missed the match, but the shots-on-goal count at the half had my hopes up.

But

I will say I missed the first 10 min. of each half which is where apparently all our good chances came from. What I saw was not pretty at all.

Not asking what people want, but how much longer do y'all think Mourinho survives?

If we don't beat Kiev I wouldn't be surprised to see him sacked.

Willian has been a bright spot. His confidence is at all. Time highs. I. Thought Hazard did nothing against West Ham.

What do we need in the January window? A right back? Striker? A holding mid?

Feels like we have gaps all over. Costa has been nothing but average. Can we play Kenedy up top? We know Falcao sucks.

What's up with Oscar... Is he hurt?

Season has been a head scratcher... We are not very good and it is amazing almost this identical team won the title last year.

Two center backs, an actual right back, a holding midfielder, a #10 and another striker.

He's played well in the few minutes he's been given, so of course he hasn't played anymore when he's been fit.

Kenedy


Not even close to ready to start for the first team.
