Chelsea FC - Pride of London

[chef]

So coming in to January, what do we need?

Definitely another midfielder and a left back I think. Maybe from recalls.

Recall Maasten and Gilmour. Problems solved.

Wait to buy in the summer. Will probably need a couple of CBs.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Wow, that was lucky... Both pens on the lucky side.

God we need Kante and Kova back.

 

[chef]

We've been shit since we smacked Norwich.

 

[Loonerty]

The congestion and injuries hitting at the same time means there's a lot of very tied guys out there.

Especially in the CM. Poor old Jorginho has to play injured.

 

[chef]

Just what they need.

 

[chef]

I'm going to miss him when he's gone, just one of those players you'd love on your team but hate if he was on the opposition.

Shithousery at its finest.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Feel like that was a massive title slip, should've walked away with a 1-0 which is a good result with Everton parking the bus.
Those injuries have come at the worst time for us, and City and Lpoo are flying. We get lucky against Leeds and City put 7 past them, Lpoo beat Everton 4-1 and we draw 1-1 at home with half their team out.

But Saul, far out this guy has zero confidence and he's looking terrible. He totally lost that ball coming in and misjudged it so badly that Braithwaite was alone and just stuck a foot out. I'm not even sure if Saul touched the ball today? Sort of a shame that Gilmour went out on loan and we brought in Saul (luckily just a loan), as with our injuries Gilmour would be getting so much game time right now.

Pulisic, hate to be harsh as he's had his injuries but I don't think it's a good fit for Chelsea and for him. Time for him to move on, he offered very little today.
Ziyech, had been looking so promising but he was terrible today some of the balls he put in were shockers or was getting tackled far too easily.

Let's hope we can get our squad fit again and firing.

 

[Loonerty]

This team has a massive mental issue when it hits December and congestion, especially compounded with the injuries atm. They hit the lead (after taking way too long to do so) and then just go to sleep. Every time.

Embarrassingly bad at the moment. How a team can go from a defensive powerhouse to this is just mind boggling.

And **** Saul off, what a useless husk of a player.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

The same frustrating lack of urgency that we saw under Lampard is creeping back. Pass pass around the box with no intent to cross or any sort of attempt to break down a bus. And Saul is genuinely the worst player I've seen in a Chelsea shirt. Everything he touches turns to shit and how about the smirk after his joke of a cross in injury time? Piss off you peasant.

I know we're only 4 points off the top with 21 games to go but we are miles from the title, and will probably drift further with away trips against Wolves and Villa to come. City have ridiculous depth and are cruising along, and Pool are just about as clinical. Both of them would've scored 5 this morning, heck, City put 7 past leads when we needed 2 penalties to beat them.

 

[Restricted Free Agent]

Desperately need this proposed Covid break. We are miles off it everywhere at the moment.

 

[chef]

We can keep having 25 shots for 1 goal.

The only difference between us and Liverpool is how clinical they are.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Man, Chilly can't come back soon enough.

 

[chef]

Or we buy Digne and shoot Alonso into the sun.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Oh that's better, look so much better with a midfield and fwds back.

Just need Chilly now.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

heck Chilwell ACL out for the season!!! We need to buy a replacement this January bad, possibly two.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

**** Chilwell ACL out for the season!!! We need to buy a replacement this January bad, possibly two.

Digne please, and then another to replace Alonso. Maybe Tagliafico.

 

[chef]

So it's.......

Recall Emerson or Maasten
Or
Buy Dest or Tagliafico
Or
Loan Digne

What do we want?

Loan Digne for mine.

 

[Thistle]

 

[Thistle]

Injuries have cooked us but was hoping a few players would make the step up to help us out. Pulisic has been super disappointing in particular.

 

[Hamez]

Reports that Reece James is out for 3 months with a hamstring injury. At the time I thought he copped a knock to his knee (was half asleep).

 

[Hamez]

What’s going on between Lukako and TT?

 

[chef]

Hope we go with Havertz and Werner up top. Silva is back too which is perfect timing. Wingback is a huge issue, CHO probably needs to be at RWB.

Lukaku can play in the development team for the rest of the season and then be flogged off to whoever wants him, not sure how you come back from the selfish trick he just pulled. What another waste of money on some self centered turd.

 

[Thistle]

Given his history at all clubs, I was worried when we re-signed him that he would make a fuss to the media if things weren't going his way. Wasn't expecting it to happen so soon!

 

[Loonerty]

Completely ridiculous too. Dude's been injured for ****ing ages.

No idea why he's done this.
