Glad Raya committed his once in every five games mega frickup while we were up 4-0 in stoppage time.

That’s why it was important to get the second and third.

Their mo in this run has been to go down, make subs and completely overrun the other team the last 30 minutes or so.

Also, in the future, if Dec doesn't play, Norgaard needs to be the 6 and move Zubi up to left 8.

Merino is lost out of possession, and has basically 0 recovery pace

Boys we did our thing yesterday.

I blame conceding on Big Gabi being off the pitch. I fricking love that motherfricker. I don't think I am exaggerating but I believe he will go down with Tony Adams as one of our 2 or 3 best defenders in the history of this football club. We just need the trophies and Gabi, Saliba, Rice, Raya, Saka, Trossard, Odegaard, and a few more will be club legends forever and ever.

Trossard with yet another 2 goal contributions yesterday. Between him and Big Gabi, I struggle to think of two better "bargain" purchases in club history. Holy shite these two. Trossard was 27 million with add ons. Gabi was 27 million with add ons. Surely the best 54 million spent in modern times by the club.

I think we get a W at Bournemouth (they are shite), a W at home to Liverpool, and we really really kick on. We are so close to full health.

15 out of 18, should have been 16 out of 18 points in December.

What a month considering the injuries and playing like arse for a good bit of it.

Compared to prior seasons:

24-25: 11 out of 15
23-24: 10 out of 21 (lost the league by 2 points)

We need to strengthen midfield in the summer for sure.


Without rice we are just not athletic enough.

Chelsea, the organization is a freaking dumpster fire. And it’s glorious to watch.

He might be the next city coach.

IMO this is a bad move for Chelsea. Instead of letting a young team grow with the coach they will bring someone new in and also buy and sell a load of players. Never having continuity.

Man city tied 0-0 at the half. Outplayed .5 to .2 in expected goals. Fully expect them to pull out a 2-0 win despite getting outplayed again in the second half.

Was keeping an eye on the 2nd half. Was scared to hate watch and jinx us. Ended up hate watching the last 90 seconds.

LFG LADS!!!

If Chelsea can just please pull off a miracle result on Sunday against City we are cooking

I may be crazy but through 19 games, I don't believe City has picked up a single point more than us in a related fixture

For example:
We drew at Sunderland, they drew at Sunderland

We are actually +6

We beat Newcastle away. They lost away.
We beat Spurs at home. They lost to spurs at home.
