Would he, or any Chelsea fan, show sympathy to us in a similar situation? Would they fuck
 
Weak words from Tuchel. A world of difference between the ‘no one likes us we don’t care’ and the victim mentality; one can galvanise the players, the other gives them an excuse. Like the difference between Mourinho’s first and second spells at Chelsea.
 
I think it was their 4th, and two of your 8 were cups, but yeah I take the overall point. Brighton are a good side, I was more than impressed with them in the second half when we played them, so it was always going to be a tall order. I figure best to get these games out of the way now rather than bunching around more important CL games later in the season, but agree that it's a tricky season to manage made trickier by the PL. But you won't get much sympathy on this forum, alas, but I'm sure you know that already! Ha! I still think ultimately City and Chelsea have some of the best squads ever put together by football clubs in history, and you just have to take stuff in your stride.

Yeah it's why I sometimes hesitate to engage in these subjects because it comes across as whiny and looking for sympathy when I'm just trying to explain my perspective on things. I enjoy the discussion I can out of some people, even I don't always agree with what is being said about my club on here.

Ultimately you're right, the season, as indeed life, must go on and we will have to ride the storm out and just keep going, and to that end, I hope Tuchel starts to reign in the negativity soon. News this morning bring even more grim news - Reece James could be for a couple of months with a torn hamstring.

Chelsea FC PLC continues to be supported financially by Fordstam Limited, a company owned by Roman Abramovich - with confirmation in the accounts that the club owes more than £1bn to "related companies".

The accounts also say that "the company is reliant on Fordstam Limited for its continued financial support". It says Fordstam has indicated support will continue "for the foreseeable future".

In the same period they say they have sold 13 players for a combined £103.7m.

Chelsea's accounts also say there is £24.1m owed due to unspecified "ongoing legal matters"

Chelsea starting XI v City:
Mendy, Azpilicueta, Christensen, Rudiger, James, Kante*, Jorginho, Kovacic, Alonso*, Lukaku, Werner

v Brighton:
Mendy, Azpilicueta, Christensen, Rudiger, James, Pulisic, Jorginho, Kovacic, Mount, Lukaku, Hudson Odoi
*Kante and Alonso came on as subs.

The way Tommy Tickle was banging on, I thought Chelsea had been decimated through covid and injuries. Not much change there in those line-ups.
