Chelsea Thread - 2021/22

[billymumphrey]

Strange set up at Chelsea. They spend £100m on a striker and the coach doesn't seem to rate him. I was just looking at Tuchel's post-match comments and he was very critical of their attacking play. Rather than blame it on his selection, tactics or our play, he said "It was about individual quality, and we lacked quality up front if I'm honest."

That's the type of comment Mourinho would come out with it.

I don't think you can take Tuchel's comments divorced of the context of the interview Lukaku gave a fortnight ago.

Chelsea welcome CPS decision to define chant aimed at their players and fans as homophobic slur - https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/60031427

It is now illegal to use the term "rent boys" in chants towards Chelsea players or fans. I reckon this ruling might just have the opposite effect to that which was intended.

The chant is in bad taste, and shouldn't be used anyway, in my opinion

If only they were so sensitive about fan chants when the supporters of their own club would chant anti-semetic abuse at Spurs fans.

These German coaches are skillful in blaming someone else. It is Martial who didn't actually play their last match. It is Lukaku who didn't see the ball much because of the defensive tactics of the coach. It is grass, something or rather. They all must come from a single root in the coaching tree.

Tuchel and Klopp are two proper miserable moaning wankers. If anything he seems even more moody than Klopp, it’s like the bloke despises football. I don’t know why he bothers doing a job in the sport.

I thought I didn’t like my job but I look like the man with the most job satisfaction in the country compared to this miserable **** at Chelsea.

As you all know I keep an eye on the opposing team’s managers and so I think I can safely say I know a little bit about their antics. :-) Tuchel is the weirdest, strangest, face pulling, hand wringing manager I have ever seen. His face distorts into a caricature, it’s like he’s trying to win a gurning contest rather than a football match!
So I agree with you @Psychedelic Casual, he’s a miserable personage.

Indeed.

(Sorry about my continual bad language, Eccles!)

Indeed.

(Sorry about my continual bad language, Eccles!)

Please never feel the need to apologise. I agree with a lot of things folk say, I just can’t say it or write it but would never feel anything other than solidarity with my Blue ‘friends’.

My Dad had this thing about me being the eldest and setting a good example to my siblings. The irony is that most of them swear! But they never got the clip round the ear. *lol*

I put ‘’ for the friends because you may not want to be known as my friend and I wouldn’t like to presume. :-)

EDIT: May I just say I am always touched by the respect shown to me by Bluemooners. Thank you.

Isn’t the story that during a police raid a so called Chelsea headhunter was found in bed with a male prostitute, colloquially known as a rent boy. Their chant of Chelsea aggro was changed to Chelsea rent boys. Not sure it’s homophobic but it’s a piss take isn’t it?

Individual quality lacking up front? If only they had unlimited resources they could have spent £57.6 million on Pulisic, £36 million on Ziyech and £97 million on Lukaku. That’s a quality front three however way you slice it, but Stones and Laporte had them for lunch. Lukaku in particular could have told the media there was a lack of individual imagination from the dug-out, but has perhaps said enough already. @Eccles Blue is spot-on. TT is a strange feller.

From seeing him on Saturday he’s got more shapes than Diversity, if he ever goes on the Masked Dancer he’ll piss it.

You are indeed a gentleman EB, our elder statesman who deserves respect, fair fucks to you :-)
