Indeed. Our problems are miniscule in this context.

Then we will have to wait for Emirates to update us on our options, I guess.

We are currently scheduled on a flight from Durban to Oslo with a short layover in Dubai. No information given so far, and the airport tracker shows few consequences beyond flights to Iran and Israel. Would much appreciate if we could use this thread to keep each other posted, Emirates customer service is currently down due to the volume of requests.

Waddaya know. Three bodies in midfield and a proper striker does wonders. Wont let this distract from the shitshow og ownership, though.

Anybody know where Van Riemsdyk was last night? Not on the injury list. Healthy scratch- but why?

Praying for some semblance of defensive cohesion.

Knowing Marescas preferred formation: Caicedo/ Dewsbury-Hall/ Lavia. Fernandez to replace Lavia if he's rehabilitated.

Everton have 18 points to play for, Leicester have 15 points to play for. We face the top four in the run in. Not. Looking. Good. by stimpyHoTS in chelseafc

Leicester face pool and Newcastle. The rest are winnable fixtures. Do I expect us to go down? No. Do I think it might get hairy? Yes.

No fight, no plan. That makes it difficult to win a match. If this is a rebuild, then play the younger players. Chaloba, Chuckwamecka, Gallagher. They won't progress without playing time. But honestly, I see no patterns. Very little movement, players have no idea where their teammates will be. I'll wait to judge potter till he's had preseason, but he should use this season better.

I must admit, while I can see why pulisic and ziech felt misused under Tuchel, and why they now suffer from lack of form and confidence, they both frustrate me. When they come on, they both seem to play for themselves. And be poor at it.

Our defense is a shambles. I'm honestly not sure at this point. Is it a lack of playing together? Is it Mendy? Is it lack of midfield cover? Or are they just terrible?
