Chelsea Thread - 2023/24

They’ll succeed cumulatively.

Probably.

Bohely read all the wonderful pundits in British media and took them to be correct.
”City are top of the league, but so they should be given the money they have spent.”
Right.

Fun fact: Chelsea have just 2 wins in their last 18 matches.

That is unbelievable, you'd expect stats like that for Luton Town near New Years but for a team that's spent a billion quid lol

I remember Risdale and O'leary getting pelters for squandered money but some of the players they got weren't that terrible.

Im gonna watch the highlights before bed and have a good laugh

Everything is pointless if we can’t finish easy chances like this. Palmer once again comes on and looks like the most creative player on the pitch. He should be starting. We haven’t scored a goal for 3 games now. Nothing else matters, if we can’t score.

Palmer is the quality that Chelsea are lacking. They need someone with a bit of class and creativity.

De Zerbi could walk into Chelsea or the Rags, but he won’t. Guess he has his eyes turned towards the Etihad.

I wouldn’t be so sure of that. So far in his managerial career he’s spent just seven months at Darfo Boario, two years at Foggia, three months at Palermo, nine months at Benevento, three years at Sassuolo, a year at Shakhtar Donetsk and he’s been at Brighton a year.
(He also played for fourteen different clubs in his playing career!)

Pep’s going nowhere yet (I think he’ll sign another contract extension). In the time until Pep leaves City, it wouldn’t surprise me if Di Zebri has three more clubs.

I think Napoli will sack their manager soon. Di Zebri would be there in a shot (he was a Napoli player for four years, the longest he was at any club). He could also go to United and Chelsea in the time before Pep leaves City.

And even if he ever came to us, I’m not sure he’d stay very long.

Wonder how many wives he’s had, haha

Will Pep sign? That is the question. I’m guessing he won’t, but just a guess.

There plan was to build a team to get 100 points Boehley went on fifa looked up all the best u23 players and bought them all thinking in 3/4 years they'll get 100 points! More like they'll finish bottom half be fined massively and docked points for failing ffp

This might just actually be the truth.

If that were true it would be horrific.

Well it was Tuchel who signed him and we've had 4 managers since then, so I doubt any guarantees about starting minutes are long gone. He's at the mercy of his own performances. He's started the season well enough but he has to keep it up because they’re young guns waiting to take his place if he isn't up to it.

“Young Guns” more like “plastic pistols”

I haven't thought about Palmer once since I saw Doku who cost us just £13m more than we sold Palmer for. As Pep says if you don't want to play for Manchester City you don't have to.

10.5m I think Bobby, 53, Doku, 42.5 Palmer with add ons of 2.5, I could be wrong.
