Chelsea's issue is that they are far too inconsistent. They played well yesterday, but that was an FA Cup semi-final at Wembley in front of a world wide audience, different to playing at Selhurst Park on a wet Wednesday evening.
We looked tired, extremely so: but that was to be expected after the gruelling mid-week game we had.
I think next season will be pivotal for Chelsea because by then Pochettino will have had time to put his stamp on the club and the team and they will have also have had time to replace the dead wood they have been carrying for a while - no names mentioned.

I think that's right. If he doesn't deliver, then he's out. But you've got to ask yourself, how many managers have Chelsea had in the last ten years? It's the kind of thing we did at one point. And it was no good for us, and it probably won't be for them.

This is so predictable and sad. Everyone a black player misses chances that costs his team a big game, his mentions and DMs a full of racist pieces of shit. I’ve seen it with Rashford and Saka. I’ve seen it with Dembele. I saw it when Tammy Abraham. It’s fucking disgusting.

You 've probably not seen a team with so many injuries either.
Take a look at their injury record for the season.its been horrific.
The last time I checked they'd recorded something like 35 serious injuries in the first few months !!
Whats behind those problems I've no idea, what I do know is that any manager in any league would struggle to achieve the consistency of play and cohesiveness demanded by their owners and fans .
Some would say that's a ' lame' excuse..but....,I'd hate for City to undergo a whole season with up to TEN players out every week..
Pep is a fantastic manager but even he couldn't achieve much with Chelsea injury 'record this season. In addition lots of players were new,and ,imo,of dubious quality ...In fact I don't believe I've ever seen a team in premier league history look so disjointed ,with little clue what they were doing , ..In some respects it has been easier for Cole Palmer to stand out in that squad.
On a side note ...that tackle by Caciedo on Jack was diabolical,definitely set out to do real damage...didn't even get a booking....disgraceful challenge....

Agreed. As Chelsea only fit striker as we speak..he is carrying quite a bit of weight on his young shoulders. 1st season in after a transfer from the Spanish league ,which is completely different in so many ways.
From Senegal to Spain to West London,at the age of 22..His approach play is pretty decent ,imo, I don't think many will be taking the piss out of him next season.
All credit to young players backing themselves in a completely different enviroment. Takes time to assimilate.

Chelsea have form for it.
Probably well before your time but the winger Paul Cannoville endured a terrible time at the Bridge in the late 70s,from his own fans .
The far right had a big hold on The Shed in those days .. . Grim times . Cannoville was the first player I'd ever heard of getting racial abuse off his own fans.
I was stunned at the time...
They did have Chukwuemeka and Sterling on the bench though, the former is a striker and the latter played up front for us under Pep in the famous “false 9” role.
