Man city looks mentally and physically exhausted. We have to win this one man. If Poch don't win there is no point keeping him next season. This is an easy game for us

Burnley are trashing this useless Sheffield already, but Timbros will be blaming defence and the ancestors instead of being sensible.

How can anybody be looking for cleansheet against this useless club ffs. Thank God Ice Cold turned up last week to show what Chelsea should be doing to most defences in EPL.
Not to make a case for the blunt attack, what have our defense shown we should be doing to most attacks in EPL?

You have your story upside down. Lampard didn't allow Drogba take the penalty during the last game of the season when he was chasing Rooney for the golden boot. The team comes first before any personal glory.
Wrong game. It was against Wigan and not Stoke.

Lampard being the team’s PK taker had the opportunity to take another kick in the 68th minute but decided to leave Drogba take it, because his teammate was in the race for the golden boot.

It doesn’t affect the team’s overall confidence or whatsoever. It is simply getting the right thing done at the right time.

What happened when they played together against Arsenal and Manchester City? Are they mid teams?
We are talking about a pivot of Caicedo and Enzo not a three man midfield that has Gallagher as the third man which we saw against these teams you mentioned.

That goal took him equal with Haaland for golden boot.

Who gives away golden boot?
Baba I wonder.

Kimbeast:
Madueke and Jackson needed that goal more than Palmer. He was already on an hatrick and we are 4:0 up. He should stop being self centered before the other attackers turn on him.
Leyqute:
Palmer is on a hattrick already. It would cost him nothing to release the PK so others could score.
These makes little sense.

You have a player who is on the hunt for the golden boot, why shouldn’t he be offered the pen?

I’ve seen Lampard let Didier take the pen because the latter needed to add to his tally. It has nothing to do with the number of goals scored in a game, if he must get 10 chances to increase his haul, then by all means let him do so.

kingBolton:
I don't want to see Palmer in that right wing again.. just give him the number 10 role permanently and look for a right winger in the summer.
I proposed this even before he kicked the ball for us.

Griffon:
I’ll love to see this boy play more centrally as we don’t even have any player at the club who connects midfield with attack. He has that guile, creativity and super ball movement.

He may be found out playing out wide as he looks like the type that plays within himself a lot. A no10 role would see this boy’s inner KDB light up.

Great signing.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga)Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Griffon: 9:14pm On Apr 15, 2024
Palmer is the league’s second highest goal scorer after Haaland.

Things you love to read.

That is also Poch fault. He could have dropped Enzo behind Caicedo. Enzo does not have the legs or spirit to be a 2nd midfielder
Simples.

BlueMann:
You do realize a lot of it is down to the gaffer. How many times have we complained about Enzo playing out of position, so much so that sometimes he's the one leading the press, and sometimes he's stationed on the left flank like a false winger. Whenever him and Caicedo have played close together in the double pivot, they have generally been very good.
Honestly, I wouldn’t advice anyone to go with the emboldened suggestion. They may appear good against a mid team with a poor press, definitely not against a team that press high up the pitch.

Enzo is not the quickest of players. His recovery is suspect and he does little to improve the team defensively. Caicedo was never this bad when playing alongside Mc Allister at Brighton.

Ibime:
They should bench Enzo till season end, let's test whether this is a one off.
On paper it’s bound to return good results. Nothing beats having CMs who offers you the license to maraud forward while providing a high level of protection for the backline.

Caicedo have been suffering. The support has been so abysmal that sometimes that boy is left trapped in no man’s land. That explains the jittery attitude, panics and gaffes.

Caciedo baling hard today.
Gallaghers inclusion makes much sense now.

With the English man playing beside him, Caicedo is offered some level of confidence. No panics, just go out there and play your game.

Look closely, we are rejecting nearly every space in our own half. You don’t get this when Enzo starts.

Mates need to put to bed the Saka comparison. The only two young English players on Palmer’s level are Bellingham and Foden.

Penalty left to complete the hatrick
If you’re referring to the perfect hat-trick, he needs to score with his right foot to achieve that.
