Chelsea Thread - 2023/24

[Txiki Txiki Bang Bang]

We’ve got to remember that this is a transitional season for them.

2 or 3 more transfer windows and £2.5Bn spent and the Europa League will become a more realistic target.

That's Putin's war chest

1 billion spent and they've still got Conor Gallagher lining up for them in midfield. Christ.

I can't see Boehly and their American ownership being anything other than a colossal failure at this rate.

Forest one those teams who sit back defend very well always going to be hard to break down!

Chelsea will play better against teams who dominate player not sit back and why poch did well at spurs..

Sterling and Palmer? Ffs, we’ve mugged them for 90m.

I think you’re forgetting that Sterling played a big part in winning several trophies for City and Palmer featured from the bench last season. Both would still get in our squad, they just wouldn’t be starters.

Chelsea fans on Twitter are in complete denial that they could be in trouble with FFP.
Also the media seems not to bother.
I dont have to be expert but Chelsea will be charged and they will be found guilty the question is what will be the punishment.

That's the point. They are hoping for a fine and back in the CL to generate revenue.

Problem is, they have admitted once to, basically, fraudulent accounting under FFP. I am not so sure UEFA will look so kindly on Chelsea deliberately failing FFP to give themselves an advantage. Two year ban incoming.

I hope :)

Chelsea can't score goals

They couldn't last year and they won't this year

They are in for a rough season

I’m not disagreeing mate but Sterling was not good enough the last two seasons and in my opinion Palmer never will be so I’m happy with the 90m. I never do anything other than support our players at the match, I saw the terrible abuse Richard Edgehill got at Maine Road, I used to see him at the driving range in Bardsley and he is a terrific lad, spoke to him a few times, he tucked that penalty away against Gillingham, proper blue.

The problem is we’re lining up with basically two attackers and one creator. The rest are either defenders or defensive minded players. We’re going to struggle in a lot of games if Poch persists with this shit. Yesterday was an absolute chore to watch.

Chelsea going down with a billion on the bench... a billion on the bench...
