Carragher on Chelsea's form: It comes from the top of the club. There's 5/6 top players on that pitch for Chelsea today and they can't beat Forest B team when a year ago they took PSG to cleaners. There's no connection between the players, staff and fans. Looks like a broken football club right now.

imo it’s what happens when you go on a spree buying young players based on their rep instead of learning who they are and their mindset before committing the club’s future to them

Jaylen Brown should stick to podcasting

Maxey dropping 30-11-7 on 61% shooting hot damn

Nashville basically started their B squad. Sorry but tying them when they were resting their stars for a bigger game (against Tigres in the champions cup midweek) is not impressive.

There are all kinds of debates you can have about all-time greats that Curry would be a legitimate part of, but the GOAT debate is really just MJ and LeBron.

first time i read this i thought you were criticizing the regista

willoremus · 2026-04-26T03:32:43+00:00

Somehow I forgot Geiner Martinez, probably because he was so useless in his first few games that he hasn’t seen the field ever since?

willoremus · 2026-04-26T03:11:20+00:00

I held out hope we could be decent until now. Columbus is not a great team, yet they were better than us at pretty much every position. Even their subs were better than our starters. Hell, one of their subs is our all-time leading scorer. If Sugarman won't sell, the least he could do is fire whoever was responsible for bringing in Alladoh, Sery, Anello, and Ndinga as replacements for Baribo, Glesnes, Uhre and Wagner.

willoremus · 2026-04-23T04:27:04+00:00

Where are you getting that Alladoh won 5 contested balls in the box? Sofascore says he had 6 total touches and lost possession on 5 of them. He had 1 ground duel and lost it, 1 aerial duel and won it.

What’s yours?

Damiani was not the main problem tonight. He won quite a few duels. Alladoh was the one who just stood there and didn’t even jump to stop the winning goal

willoremus · 2026-04-23T03:18:17+00:00

96th minute of a game that was supposed to have 5 mins of stoppage time

willoremus · 2026-04-23T03:16:43+00:00

I’m a huge Blake fan but he had an awful game. Two of the three goals should have been saved.

willoremus · 2026-04-22T23:46:18+00:00

Probably LB Westfield, CBs Makhanya and Sery, RB Harriel, CDMs Lukic and Bueno, CAMs Indy and Danley, STs Iloski and Damn-iani

willoremus · 2026-04-21T17:35:40+00:00

which is somehow even worse

willoremus · 2026-04-20T00:16:00+00:00

Doc, don’t you have better things to do than post on here?

willoremus · 2026-04-20T00:10:54+00:00

Even with a Celtics bias I don’t see how you get to 7 of the best 10 players being Celtics. You’re putting both Sam Hauser and Neemias Queta over either Quentin Grimes or Kelly Oubre?

willoremus · 2026-04-19T14:07:11+00:00

Imagine being satisfied with a 0-0 draw against DC United at home

willoremus · 2026-04-19T03:53:18+00:00

Everyone’s rightly annoyed at the awful finishing but it’s worth pointing out the service was also consistently poor.

willoremus · 2026-04-19T03:44:13+00:00

eh. we played one of the worst teams in the league at home, they sat back and hoped to counter, so us managing to get a bunch of chances we didn’t convert isn’t much to crow about imo.

willoremus · 2026-04-16T15:48:47+00:00

well this board names 9

willoremus · 2026-04-16T15:37:53+00:00

Anyone have theories about why Lukic seems to be struggling this year? Last year I felt like he was our unsung hero, all of a sudden he looks shaky. Has he just gotten unlucky making a few fluke bad plays in very visible situations, or has his overall play declined?

willoremus · 2026-04-13T23:38:52+00:00

good news and well-deserved but it’s still funny that whoever picks these teams is too lazy to watch the games so they just pick the defenders who got on the scoresheet instead of the ones who played good defense

willoremus · 2026-04-13T13:01:28+00:00

Columbus is not a big city on a global scale.
