Guys, don't forget to still manage your expectations for this season. This is a new and inexperienced squad that can falter at any moment.

Last season too under sarri, we went on about a 10 game winning streak and even topped table at a point only to falter mid season.
Just don't expect much from the team this season and take the results as you see them in good faith.

However, overall things are looking very good at the club right now, it's obvious that there is an upward positive trajectory the club is on right now and long may it continue.

We need positive consistence from the players. Our attackers need to be more clinical and accurate in front of goal. We are creating so many chances but scoring so little goals.

Once again, nice job Lampard, long may your reign be.

Finally!!
Chelsea just love the underdog tag.

Saved by the bar. This is not looking like a match we would win.

I hope I'm wrong sha.

We're playing with fire oo.

VAR to our rescue.
Somedays, it will favor you, other days, you'll hate it.

Hudson's accuracy is piss poor.

We're very sloppy today.

We're yet to gain composure on the ball

Unlimited22:
100 pages away from being Nairaland's first 8k page thread, and I'm sure half that tally will be filled with arguments against and for Hazard and Pep, neither of whom are employed by Chelsea.

I'm quite surprised at the pace with which we surpassed united's thread. They out paced us with more than 500 pages at a point, for us to have caught up with them and now surpassed with more than 400 pages is bewildering.

I guess with persistent failure comes pessimism.

lordfalcao:
lol. Hensben when he talk about knowing football

Indeed

Greatihex:
He had no choice. The players were playing the way they know how to win

And you know this how?

You were in the dressing room to know that the players went against coaches orders abi?
Stop being mischievous my friend.

Ibime:
Low scores everywhere.

Thank God for Tielemans who lifted my score slightly

my score is 20. I wan crase. My worst week ever.

BikeMan:
THIS>>>>

I don't understand

What the hell is wrong with some of you here

I don't get it? Is it that you guys just hate sarri so much, so that you have decided to blind yourself not to see anything good with what he did here?

In this life, one has to be objective and balanced in his view, and also open to re-adoption of ideas lest he becomes unhinged on extremism.
I see a lot of fans here who are usually blind to the truth and when their mis-ideologies are being corrected, rather than eat the humble pie and reassess their stance, they become further arrogant in their stupidity.

What would it take out of you to agree that sarri had faults but a few good things came out of his short stay??

Yes, At first, he was stubborn and rigid in his style of play, but towards the end of the season, you could pick out lots of positives in his system, especially in the Europa league, he gave Hudson odoi and RLC the platform to shine and the consistency in the team. Hudson at 20yrs had the most minutes of playing time compared with other top6 teams
Kante had transformed rapidly technically and jorginho had now adapted to the team fully.

What will it take you to accept the truth
Were we not all here at the end of last season praising all these changes?
So why would we now become obstinate in our views?
Or about hazard, what would it take to say, he was obviously talented but had faults in his gameplay that hindered the efficacy of his play.

Hmm. Let's watch and see.

Ibime:
Captain fails everywhere in FPL this week so I wouldn't worry too much.

My opponent captained KDB sha so fingers crossed.

Sterling, salah and Mane are yet to play, only Tammy has disappointed, other premiums might turn up.

Operation cleansheet.

Pulisic should try and get a goal to boost his chances of starting.

Chelsea's attack is now so relentless!!
Wave after wave of attack. Nice

Finally

Abeg comot Alonso.

From your profile pics you're still a young man not more than 25 years of age who hasn't seen life at all. It's not worth exchanging words with you.

I don't need to prove myself to you. I don't know how you look at my pics and believe that that is a teenagers body

I don't know you and you don't know me but with your shenanigans on this platform, there is no doubt as to who is the matured and responsible individual between us.

NewDelhi:
Lol na your type dm dey tell to swim inside gutter all because you match him shoe and you'll humbly swim like an Olympic gold medalist ..... For the azubuike guy to drop his number and challenge him means he knows what he's doing. He couldn't be so foolish to drop his number and even his address before they came the first time... He knows they came and he's challenging them to come again and dropped his number for them to call incase they're around. I no dey support anybody but for him to be that courageous means you just might not know who he is too.... btw lieutenant na still small boy for army... He no get mouth reach anywhere. Anyways leave matter fr two of them...

Forget this long stories, the military squad came to his house and he disappeared like the fart of a leprous witch and then came online again making noises again. My problem is him posting these details online. That puts him at risk, not just to the military guys he's forming bravado for but other unknown entities.
In a public forum like this, you never can tell who sees the info and uses it dangerously.
Anyway, I don comot hand for their matter.

KingAzubuike:
Risk which life kid? Please tell me kid? Or na everybody he think say e fit dey do gragra for? Fact that some of us dey follow una chat and argue for here no mean say you fit talk am for our eye face to face for real life ... I waited for him for 3 good days he didn't show up only to be telling me he later came with his squad. Well I've challenged him for another meeting and dropped my number for am if dem born him papa well make he come.

Funniest thing be say na small boy for army... Lieutenant wey just finish NDA fa .. I go show am who be boss

You are brainless, I'm sorry to say.
How can you not see anything wrong in challenging a military guy and his squad and even dropping your number on a public forum for all to see all in the name of bragadaccio. you can see he really means to find you. Why not shutup? Instead you go further and then expose your details and even your own house

People can be foolish sha.
All to what purpose? To prove what to who?
I don comot hand anyway. Na your life.

KingAzubuike:
How on Earth did kante suddenly become an extremely injury prone player

No be you wey military man dey hunt so??

Y would you just want to risk your life unnecessarily? Over nothing.

Make una dey use sense for this lifeoo.

Africans and our stupid superstitions Tufiakwa.

Ibime or nihilist, you guys should open another fpl group and send us the code privately.

Adiwana, You are making no sense, honestly.

lekkie073:
you can't call it nairaland premier league and expect it to be restricted. You can't force people to be active on a thread. Instead, you should finds ways of encouraging people to banter.

But it is already restricted in a certain sense, the code is not publicly published but sent privately.

I think he makes a solid point of this fpl group being open to only ACTIVE European sports section nairalanders.

If you don't agree with his point, come up with a better strategy as to how to make this place fun again.

Wow! Emaprince Nice one.

Am I the only one who has not been the least bit interested in this rap ish since it began?

Good for him
