Well shyttee happens....but Barkley really impressed me. The attack looks promising with him around however they should have gotten a goal or 2 but it is what it is....

The defence was majorly our undoing....they single-handedly dashed Bournemouth the game.

I don't know if it's just me who thinks caballero should be starting our games.....we didn't concede much with him keeping.

No it's not just you. I asked in our last game if it was just me seeing Caballero making some crucial saves.
I have the same view.

MoR2:
instead of moving backwards why not move forward to luis enrique.

the current chelsea squad need a manager like poch, that can develop them into star players

You think Enrique and Poch will turn Zappacosta, Giroud, Bakayoko, Drinkwater, into stars ....
Pure Comedy.

Speechless.

The whole club is now in a sunken place.

Arsenal sign Auba and Mhkitaryan in January, tie Ozil down to a long-term improved contract. We send our second most prolific player out on loan, sign a 30-yr-old Arsenal reject for £18m and another player from half-way round the world, who's been injured for more than he himself can remember.

Bat on the move. Loan agreed.
So Giroud it is then.

I have no words for the shambles.

Read this on yesterday. Even though he operates in a world most can only dream about, there were several lessons to take from the story. I personally found his journey very inspiring, despite not reaching the goal.

CSTR2:
Why is Chelsea not in for Mahrez?

Surely, we need decent additions in the attacking third.

Complete mystery to me. Unless thee is something the football world knows about him that is not apparent to us.

Nihilist:
I prefer Beyonce, but i can be satisfied with Omotola.

If Omotola is not around, i take Mercy Johnson.

If Mercy no dey available, I can still appreciate Daniella Okeke.

If Daniella is off the table, give me Sikira Sindodo.

Giroud is equivalent to the chic after Sikira.

Hehehe.

Ibime:
Alonso is just class in everything he does. His movements, his touch, his interplay, delivery and set pieces. If only he had pace, he would be complete.

Which is why it is baffling when people call him sh1t.

Odoi gets to play before Musonda. Musonda has done himself no favours it will seem with with Conte with his Twitter rant

Alonso the FK specialist.

Guys is it me or is Caballero nearly better than Thibault at shot-stopping?

Now it's Kurzawa as it seems Roma is not playing ball.

Greatihex:
me I'm okay with Bakayoko so far.

Me I am okay with Conte so far.

chrisley024:
Any proof

Indeed. These fellas think it is just okay to opine hogwash and have nothing to back it up.

patrickmuf:
Marco Silva is jobless...The pressure to succeed is crazy in today's football.

Unbelievable. They are 10th!
What are their expectations, top 4?

Thank you sir.
Let's not forget this is what what said.

raumdeuter:


Hazard cannot give that type of one time pass

raumdeuter:
Hazard cannot give that type of one time pass

Airmark. Dayo needs one of your gifs.

raumdeuter:
That quick thinking of Willian is what Hazard lacks

You think a player who consistently leaves players in their wake, turning 180 degrees from start position in any direction and getting 2 yards on players in one deft move, lacks quick thinking.

Well done.


Anyone who watches Hazard and says he lacks quick thinking is just beefing.

EarthXmetahuman:
nice one from hazard, giving that boy his shirt.

Indeed. The boy had the note up for a good part of the game.

See Pass!

raumdeuter:
Hazard with another useless backheel to an opponent

You were saying.

Hazaaarrrdddd!

airmark:
Dayo never found himself in that situation on the pitch before. He can't understand that. He is one of those people always shouting shoot , shoot, shoot whenever a player is in the box. Nothing concerns them with whether there's space or not.

Hehehe.

Well done my boy

Greatihex:
If care is not taken, arsenal will put Chelsea out of the top four.

Auba and mhki have already agreed personal terms.


Well, I won't be disturbed if we win the champions league

Evidence of the new times we find ourselves. How are they able to pull that off and we seem to be joking around?

Hehehe. Everyone is taking the mickey out of us.


Unhappy times for Chelsea fans!

A few posts back, I was saying why we should be careful with all this Conte out gist. The Chelsea Manager job is no longer lucrative.

We are now being linked heavily with the Crouches and Carrolls of the PL. Even by our Januiary stop-gap standards over the years, this is a new low.

airmark:
Diplomacy is important while handling issues regarding the staffs you manage in any organisation, when required. The way he answered that question could be done in a better way. Players who are key to your success are not to be pampered, but at the same time, not to be painted as inconsequential. Unhappy players would send him back to italy. Soft work.

“This is not important. I’m the coach, I decide. It’s not important if one player is happy or not''.

That's like saying it's not important if your staffs are happy or not, yet you want the best from them. It's either conte has made up his mind to leave chelsea anytime and he cares no more or he's just ignorant. We know the cheque book coaches qualified to do this and put their hands in the till and won't be looking for injured players to upgrade their teams.

Why was conte defending morata amidst criticisms? Is it not to make him happy by encouraging him and building his confidence? I expect him to criticise him openly so that we will know his job is not to make players happy.

I am sure Conte understands the A-Z of diplomacy. Sometimes, too much diplomacy is just as harmful as the lack of it.

As you quite rightly pointed out in your post that follows, Conte managed the Costa situation very well and has done so with Luiz and Morata so far. There must be a reason he has done this to Hazard. This is why I said "sometimes, at the right time".

I agree with him 100%. Considering the cicumstances surrounding Hazard and all the Real Madrid antics, I would not have wanted him deflecting in the face of that question, all in the name of diplomacy.

raumdeuter:
For the above statement, I am liking Conte more. I now wish he can finish 2nd on the table

Actually my desired EPL table finish now will be

1. City





2. Chelsea
3. Liverpool
4. Spurs

5. Man Utd

Wasere. May Trump confuse you for a Norwegian in Jesus' Name

airmark:
He is a crazy coach, i'm not sure he is that good in man-management.

It depends on what you believe man-management is.
I think it is important sometimes, at the right time, to take a hard line on all players, including Hazard and make them know that it's his way or the highway.

No one is buying Hazard for now, so he needs to keep his mind on his career and become something first.

pamcode:
Guys is it possible for a Player to be Left handed and still have his preferred foot to be right? cc Nihilist,Airmark,Ibime and any one else.

I have a few examples. I know this guy who is naturally left-handed and left-footed, he broke his left hand nastily and couldn't write with it for 6 months. He started using his right hand and got used to it ever since. Although, he can still write with his left.

I have a friend who is left-handed but right-footed when playing football.

My little daughter is left-handed but kicks with her right when I throw her a football.


Yes. It is posible.
