I really don't get it to be honest.

He did an interview, played for the club since and scored winners for them, interview comes out and everyone kicks off and he gets dropped.

Chelsea are the ones who fudged it imo. He'd have buried Liverpool.

Have you seen his record in big games? Don't think he would have done anything in that game, if history is anything to go by. Chelsea and Tuchel handled it in absolutely the right way from start to finish imo.

The reality is much like any club, if he starts playing well and putting the ball in the net regularly nobody at Chelsea will care about this whole fiasco.

On the flipside, regardless of his apology, if he's not doing well this interview will always resurface.

How though?

He held those same views and had done the interview when he won you three points against Villa, should he have been dropped for that game?

He still created a lot of unnecessary noise, and whether they were genuinely held beliefs or not, giving an interview verbalising them to the world is still disrespectful to the club that invested 100m in him and his coach. I'm less interested in his apology to the fans than I am in him clearing the air with his coach.

Didn't Hazard do a whole video holding up cards with club's crests on them, discarding them, laughing, smiling as he teased who he was signing for? Then announced it on Twatter? That's unnecessary noise.

Lukaku just did an interview in which he voiced his side of leaving a club in, at that point, financial uncertainty and saying he'd like to rejoin them again. He then went on the pitch for Chelsea and won you four points so his professionalism isn't in question and thus, in my opinion, it was hardly disrespectful.

To make him do an apology video, I'd have told them to get fucked. Tell Marina or whoever to do the same next time they tap a player up.

I suppose we're just going to have to disagree. I didn't really care much for his apology to the fans. Don't think that was necessary, but I can imagine he might have wanted to do one himself anyway.

He spoke about wanting to be back at Inter still in his prime. He's 28 now, that's why people took it to mean he wants out of Chelsea pretty soonish. He complained about Tuchel and the decisions he's made. He insinuated that he didn't even want to come here and if Inter had given him an extension like he wanted, he would have rejected Chelsea. All of that is disrespectful to the club that made him their most expensive signing ever.
 
They were very good in last 2 games. They can cause us serious trouble. We have to prepare well for the game.

Honestly, that game is an irrelevance in terms of the title race. It's important for us in our fight to finish above Liverpool but generally there isn't really a great deal riding on the game.

And in any case, we will not beat you at the Etihad.
 
Chavski will be competitive because they have a deep squad and have competition for places unlike Spuds and Rags.

In terms of causing us problems at home I'm not convinced, my prediction is, we boss it.

Are you Chelsea fan?
 
I've noticed that Lukaku has reverted to the bulked up, sluggish and static 'target man' he was at United as opposed to the much leaner, mobile version in Italy.

That's nice..
 
What is it with German managers being whinging bitter cunts?

“Maybe, who knows? So far the biggest difference in the season as far as I’m concerned is they dealt better with injuries and the Covid situation," he said.

"Maybe it is lucky, maybe they do it better, but they have fewer injuries to key players, fewer days out and weeks where they miss them. They did not suffer from Covid like we did. This is a huge difference.
