Chelsea FC - Pride of London

[PonsfordMagpie]

It's going to be a big fight to stay in the top 4.

Newcastle breathing down our necks and a potentially resurgent Man City might be coming back.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Surely we just recall Chaboloah, he's had a good season with palace and very flexible in regards to position in defence he plays. Can't understand why Enzo doesn't rate him.

 

[Van_Dyke]

Been a while since I popped my head in here, pumped to finally go to Stamford Bridge for the first time on Tuesday night for the Bournemouth game. Any sort of recommendations for those that have made the trip before?

Been 20 years since I've been, but Butchers hook or The Chelsea gate good for pre beers, both will be busy and good atmosphere.

I always enjoyed pre game, get down few hours early and enjoy the atmosphere at the pubs and around the stadium.
Hopefully we win.

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

No wins in 5 games in the Premier League.

Top 4 will be an uphill battle if we don't reverse this form soon.

I'm starting to wonder whether we need to invest in a striker in the January transfer window. Our current crop are not reliably up to it.

 

[chef]

Let's be honest, we needed to sign a striker in the summer window(it was a pretty obvious need). Our Sporting Directors have really let Maresca down.

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

We really should be in Marmoush's ear. Unlike City, he's actually a need for us. Jackson just misses too many sitters to be first choice.

 

[Thistle]

Jackson frustrates the hell out of me. Does a lot good but offsets it with so much bad

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Our form relies heavily on Jackson, first part of the season he took his chances and we were winning. He's now missing chances and we're coughing up points.

Definitely need a striker, imagine we had Isak.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Happy big Trev has been recalled. So versatile.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

I remember seeing just before Christmas, our upcoming 10 game fixture and how easy it was. Next minute 3 points from possible 15.

Wolves next, not sure I can watch...

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Big relief to get 3 points after a winless month in the PL.

We look foolish for having loaned Chalobah out in the first place. At least he's back now.

Absolutely foolish, he's a great CB with a sound passing game, can get up the pitch and also play RB is required. No brainer to bring him back and retain him.

 

[Thistle]

Get Sanchez out of our goal

 

[TubbsFarquhar]

Really needed that, especially with City coming up who have found their groove again. Chalobah MOTM, which is a bit of a middle finger given how he was pushed out.

Get Sanchez out of our goal

Saw a stat that he has one of the highest save percentages, but also the most errors that lead to goals. We just can't afford to have anyone too unreliable between the sticks. Mamardashvili was one I was a big fan of, but he's Pool bound.

I didn't think Petrovic did much wrong when he was #1

Having a very good season at Strasbourg too.

He or Jorgensen are much better options.

Sanchez out.

Love to see Felix replace Jackson for a game too.

Ah, I forgot about him.

Can he be recalled? Sanchez is a disaster.

Sanchez has to go, just way too many mistakes.

Love to see Felix start in place of Jackson, or pair them up top.

 

[Thistle]

He was MOTM for Strasbourg and pulled off a worldie save at the end. Honestly don't understand what Maresca sees in Sanchez

 

[PonsfordMagpie]

Man City, Newcastle and Bournemouth all losing has been extremely helpful.

Hope we pounce on the opportunity and get back into the top 4. Time to end this slump once and for all.

Hmmm, I'm nervous we won't. Hoping Sanchez is dropped and either bench Jackson or play him on left.

Expecting a quiet transfer period for us too. Mainly outgoings.

 

[Eastcoasteagle]

Geez if we loan with obligation to buy for Felix, I've lost all faith.

Our Sporting Directors are clowns. Our summer window was pretty disastrous.
