    Fair play for pulling Maddison. Hopefully Kulu has a good one tonight and gives them both some impetus to perform

    2023/24 Champions League

    Not sure even that beats losing a must-win tie to a team with their manager in prison, tbf! It's very easy to fuck it all up.

    They certainly don't get much credit for Sancho after he spent 8 years at Watford, and then left after 2 at City.

    Team for Chelsea

    Fucking hell. This season is different gravy in terms of how many players have gone down, both for us and for numerous other teams. Mad stuff.

    I wonder sometimes what he could do as a DM given our struggles there since Bissouma went off the boil. A lot of the best stuff that he does for us isn't actually in being the one making the last ditch tackles. It's in taking responsibility, stopping issues before they become one, and being able...

    I remember going to their play-off semi with Bolton at Portman Road and then the Wembley final after that when they were last promoted as a mate and his dad had a spare season ticket. Didn't realise until this match that it's been 22 years now since they got relegated. Fuck me...where does the...

    Ramsdale hadn't saved them shipping an extra 25 goals with world class goalkeeping.

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    I think we all know that we're not spaffing 200 big ones, and even if we were the idea that we could even sign all of those if we wanted to, would even want Toney, and then go and short change ourselves by spending the least of all in the biggest area of concern in the whole squad is peak...

    Manager Watch: Ange Postecoglou

    I'm not saying that his idea will be to not concede corners at all and to just solve the problem that way, but that he will take that up with whoever is coaching the defensive set pieces, I am sure of it, because otherwise good work is being undone due to it. We lost the game today due to it...

    Vio only worked on offensive set piece routines.

    This is also what I took from it, in protecting the coaches. He spoke right at the very start of the season about letting his coaches get on with their areas and him not dictating how they go about their job. He's not a micromanager in that sense. They're going to be judged on the results of...

    I think it's clearly become a confidence issue now for all concerned, really from that Everton game where they completely mugged us off. There is no trust from anyone that we can just deal with the situation which leads to indecision and a lack of proactivity, and while they keep going in from...

    Well it was a good performance at least and we showed a lot of balls. But gifted it away early doors again. Such a shame
