Question is how, with all this talent, are potters tactics failing so badly at Chelsea? Brighton is even looking good after he left. Is it the players? We either have 12 year olds playing, we’re injured, or 40 year olds

I'm not happy with Potter either and despite our issues 1 win in 8 is simply not good enough. Downright atrocious really. That said, especially today, it is almost unbelievable the squads we are having to send out there.

I mean look at his list of players out...

Mendy
Fofana
James
Chilwell
Kante
Loftus Cheek
Mount
Sterling
Pulisic

That's at least 7-8 of our first choice players out. The only guys on the field today who are at the required level are Silva and Kovacic. Though I was impressed with Zakaria today.

Cucurella might be the worst player I've ever seen at Chelsea and having Aubameyang and Havertz on the field together makes me want to scratch out my eyes. We are big time F'd.

Azpi (TYFYS) needs to be replaced. His motor isn’t what it used to be. That list of injured guys could have a run at the UCL, pretty incredible. Is there a time frame on Kante and James? Seems like they’ve been out forever

Puli with the brace today, book it


I hate being right but isn’t he wearing a brace now?

I guess thats the best spin I can come up hope he heals fast.

Has there been an update on him? Sterling has pulled hammy. Read an article that the players are concerned with the PT and S&C coaching in the club right now. Too many injuries for coincidence

Ha all you great Chelsea fans have nothing to say about the passing of Vialli? You Americans have probably never even heard of him?

Who is the first Chelsea manager you remember? Sarri? Conte?

Your last 3 comments literally say “you Americans” as if you’re not American. Then you have another comment saying “ We kicked their asses over 200 years ago so we wouldn’t have to care about this” about England as if you’re Americans. Get fricked troll

Heard of him, didn't know much about him, he was at Chelsea for like 3 years and yes I wasn't following in the 90s. First manager I remember was Jose 1.0. Sorry not sorry eabod

spent most of his time in Italy, he played 58 matches and scored 21 goals for CFC, was CFC player manager when Gullit got canned then manager for two seasons, noteworthy but hardly a CFC legend

this was pretty cool though, from the 1999 yearbook:




ETA I remember Gullit getting sacked but forgot about the Vialli part of the story.

Lmao is this guy serious? I'm pretty sure these guys have bigger issues to discuss right now than Vialli. I know if a Liverpool legend died, it would play second fiddle in our thread to the dumpster fire we're dealing with.

Felix is a really good player but can one player really make a difference in this squad right now? It's pretty bad.

Not sure what he brings to the squad when the glaring hole is striker and RB depth.

Not to mention the midfield play has been absolutely dreadful. Jeorginho is trash, Zakaria is still young, Kovacic has had some good moments this year, and I guess Kante is going to be out for a significantly longer period than imagined.

Yesterday after scoring a goal, Enzo pointed to his badge and mouthed to the crowd that he was staying

Sounds about right since I’m headed over today for the Fulham and palace games. Hopefully Felix tears it up.
