re: Chelsea 2023/24 Season-Long Thread: We’re Toast

Brough doesnt close up the middle and CFC score 6

AVL close up the middle and CFC score 0

sums it up

Chilwell is arse.

Glad pulisic left this shite show, even though he’d be the best player on the pitch with Palmer and nkuku

Da fuc? Didn’t watch a minute thank God

CFC first shot on LFC goal was in the 48th minute
that about sums it up

He’d be the best player for 25 minutes, then wouldn’t do a thing for the next 3 matches. Then get hurt for 3 months.

Just give the damn club back to Roman

Back line issues? Keeper?

not really

just passing it around doing nothing

no passion either, just flat

the Anfield crowd was into the match early on and CFC just did not look up to the task

no leadership on this club
just a bunch of young guys doing what they want
petrovic was good all things considerd 28 shots, 13 on target, 9 saves

Half time changes for Chelsea
Gusto, Mudryk and Nkunku coming on for Chelsea.
Chilwell, Gallagher and Madueke have gone off.

nkunku came on and was very good

Chelsea's players have been slammed for their 'shameful' behaviour letting their mascot walk alone at Anfield.

The Reds maintained their five-point lead at the top of the Premier League with a fantastic 4-1 victory over Chelsea at Anfield.

Chelsea scored a late consolation through Christopher Nkunku before Luis Diaz added a fourth late on.

just spoiled soulless children stuck on themseves

shameful display

CFC acquire a bunch of young guys from all over the world, give them huge long term contracts and then cycle through managers at an alarming rate then what do we expect? We get a squad filled with comfortable and entitled guys with zero urgency and no sense of club accountability

who are the leaders on this club? who are the seasoned vets that demand professionalism? who is going to get in someone’s face? James? silva? chillwell? gallagher? Everything changed when Roman was forced out, Tuchel was sacked, Azpi got old and Rudiger went to RM. All of the club toughness, professionalism and grit went with them.

just look at the recent Captains, CFC went from Gary Cahill to John Terry to Cezar Azplicueta to Reese James.

Reece James doesnt talk and is hurt all the time. Chillwell is vice captain and hurt all the time. Gallagher is 3rd and seemingly on his way out. A huge message was sent when they chose James over Silva, the young guys are in control

the worst thing about Boehly’s lack of plan for the roster is the very thing people were saying about the 76ers tanking. You tank to get talent, the talent is super young, there are no veteran leaders the young guys respect, immature guys are comfortable and paid and the culture of tanking created a culture of losing that is incredibly difficult to overcome when the youngsters become the veterans. So they stat chase and underachieve because that is what they know.

since it is at The Bridge with a club below CFC on the table I feel pretty good about it.

At Stamford Bridge, CFC are Eight wins and Two draws out of their last Ten matches with four straight EPL match wins

but this shite is concerning

Chelsea team news: Nicolas Jackson is back from warming the bench with Senegal at the Africa Cup of Nations: well rested and ready to play, presumably. Christopher Nkunku and Malo Gusto are also back from their respective injuries though their match fitness is questionable still. Carney Chukwuemeka has made four consecutive appearances off the bench since his return, while Ben Chilwell’s also working on a four-match streak, with two starts (of mixed success).

Reece James, Wesley Fofana, Marc Cucurella, Roméo Lavia, Robert Sánchez, Lesley Ugochukwu, and Trevoh Chalobah remain out, while Levi Colwill’s set to miss a third successive game with his supposedly oh-so-minor injury. An injury-list in the single digits is almost a win in and of itself at this point.

ETA and Broja was sent on loan out to Fulham yesterday for the rest of the season so they are trying to clean out the roster of all the extra bodies
