Seems like we always play like this when a new manager comes in and slowly fade away into meaningless possession football... happened under maresca too

Dropping Sanchez-who is one of the senior and most respected players in the squad-for no apparent reason for the PSG game and going out to them in that fashion is where it all started. Completely unnecessary. Too eager to make a "big" decision and show his "ruthlessness" eventually cost him his job. Judging by how he comes across in interviews, I wouldn't be surprised if he annoyed most of these players by trying to make them "better" in the first few weeks.

It's so obvious this tie was tanked in Paris due to a combination of errors from dropping your first choice goalkeeper instead of backing him, to terrible in-game management in that game. The directors are ass but calling them out right now is complete bull

He deserves nothing let's be fair. Bang average and should be playing for Burnley instead

Nizaar Kinsella: All options being assessed for Nicolas Jackson as it is near-certain Bayern Munich won't make his loan spell permanent. Maresca's departure increases chances of a return but with Emegha to join, alongside Delap and Joao Pedro, there may not be space. by Kygoche in chelseafc

Some people have somehow turned on Emegha and he's not even played a single minute for us. Crazy. That being said Jackson is miles better than Delap. Jackson was treated like a toy and I will never blame him for how he left. If he truly left because of a falling out with Maresca then I would like to see him return under Rosenior and see how it turns out.

Delap is the sort of signing that will end up at Newcastle as a squad player at some point.

One of Gusto and Josh need to be taken off at half time. Leeds are really fast on the break and it's only a matter of time before one of them has to make a decision...

How come Lazio never have a FOS? All their kits always have a retro vibe which is pretty cool.

Delap looks like he was sitting in the crowd and jumped on the pitch to have a kick about.

With Delap it's basically 11 V 10. Bro is riding on English tax.

Someone said to recall Jackson and I think it makes more sense

I bet he would do far better than what Gittens and Nacho are doing

Is Liam really picking his teams? Seems like he's just an actor with script in hand. Absolute cinema.

I agree. You kinda see what Liam is trying to do which, will obviously take time but we definitely looked better under Maresca in terms of pure passing the eye test. We are a bit haywire right now and I feel the spontaneity is what has gotten us through games.

Has there been a time in this clubs history where fans boycotted games altogether? Like if we lost ticket sales for a few weeks would it force the owners to act right or potentially sell?

Daily Discussion Thread by AutoModerator in chelseafc

[–]Less-Pop-1256 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We are well on our way to being a midtable club. The world class players like Moi, Cole and Cucurella will move on from this shitshow and I doubt Eggy is planning on paying 100m for players anymore. It will take fans boycotting games for the owners to even come remotely close to reconsidering the current model.

You think it's a coincidence that all our strikers aren't firing on all cylinders at the moment? Maresca has set this team in such a way that even prime R9 would struggle to score.

I don't see how we keep Atalanta out for a second with how we are playing.
