surely any board with a brain keeps poch and galagher and chalobs.

Agree0 0Disagree

20 May 2024 08:40:33
Poch, how can you keep somebody who does not want to sign a contract, do you want CG to go on a free next season?

Agree0 0Disagree

Job done, 5 wins on the bounce and 6th place. I thought Moises, Marc C, Noni, Jackson and Conor were very good today with Noni just shading MOM for me. Great send off for Silva and now we can look forward to the sporting directors working their magic to bring in the 2 or 3 players to complete the re-build. Quite remarkable really how this young side has progressed this season and with the likes of Paez and Estevao joining in 2025 the future is very bright. Finished just 5 points away from 4th place and without the injuries we would surely of bridged that gap so I'm very confident we can challenge next season. Final point on Poch, I was very much in the change him camp, particuarly after the Cup Final, but have jumped on the 'bandwagon' and think he 100% deserves to start the new season. Enjoy your off season and the Euro's and a huge thankyou to ED's 01, 02 and 25 for your input.

I enjoyed the game today and the atmosphere within the ground was excellent. The very long goodbye for Silva after the game was very heartfelt.

We played some nice stuff in spells.

Jackson was brilliant and his brief partnership cameo with Nkunku looks to be very promising.

Gallagher in the second half was brilliant.

Chalaboa is better than Dunk or Maguire.

Sterling getting a goal saved me a £100 but I've still got to donate £200 to a charity.

Caicedo was my MOM yet again.

We now want City to be Utd.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 21:30:07
Agree about Caicedo being MoM with CG and TC next most impressive. Yes Jsckson and Nkunku pairing v promising.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 21:54:56
I should have added Ugo looks like a player and I can see playing alongside Caicedo next season.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 22:47:48
Thanks for the report from the ground, Tom! A few thoughts:

Casadei looks an excellent prospect. I've seen him irritated a number of times when he's been in good positions for a tap-in only for a teammate to shoot instead of putting him through on an open goal near the end of must-win games. Palmer a couple of games ago and then Gallagher today.

As fantastic as results have been in this part of the season there's been a fair bit of luck involved – we've been let off the hook by other teams' dodgy finishing a number of times in putting together this push for Europe, and our own finishing still needs to improve. Lots of work still to do for next season, as we could easily have given up the points that would've taken this away from us. Cheerful end of the season for us fans though, thank god.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 19:03:55
Brilliant end to the season sees us back in Europe, never would have thought that a few months ago.

Another turbulent season, it must be a Chelsea thing 😅 we've showed signs of progression these past few weeks. Let's hope we get the recruitment right and come out fighting next season.

Hope you all have a good off season, take care, next up is Germany for me following England. Hoping we can bring it home this time 🤞🏻 Massive shout out to the Eds for putting up with us all, hope silly season doesn't start too soon and you get a break before transfer window madness.

One final thing. 🎵 Ohhhh Thiago Silva 🎵.

Dan, COME ON ENGLAND. Have fun mate.

Anyone think vitor roque might be worth a look in the summer? .

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 11:56:47
Would be a big call in my opinion. I did see him play in one game this season and he was just ok.

He looked quite small but sometimes good things come in little packages (Zola)

If I remember correctly he was only about 18/ 19 years of age. Would be an interesting investment.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 14:34:21
yeah he's very young tom b and i guess raw so would be a massive gamble.

Questions for all the fans/ posters and ed,

Do you think poch warrants another year?

For me yes because it feels finally like something is building and clearly the players have a bond with him.

Who will leave this season?
For me sterling, badiashille or disasi, neither are good enough, and id be tempted by an enzo bid he just reminds me of jorginho all over again, sanchez

Who would i like to sign?
Diogo costa
Guehi
Gibbs white
Solanke/ sesko/ boniface any of them 3

the reason for solanke is i feel like hed be a great rotation player with jackson, he's really grown on me jackson id hate to see us sign oshimen and see jackson on the bench for half the season nect year

Gibbs-white his energy and style would suit us far more than someone like enzo

Guehi i think he was another mistake we let go, i think his history with the club and his maturity now would be great for the dressing room and maybe hel show just like galagher and chalobah and colwill and james etc what it means to be a chelsea and i think solanke also fits that mould

Diogo costa would be an upgrade on what we have id keep petrovic and id play him in all the cups and europa league

1 wild card signing
Michael olise
An unbelievable talent another player whod trive in this team play him off the left maybe? so many options and hard to see were signings would even fit in now that our squad is finally recovering

All the above we probably don't even have interest just players id like to see personally at the club

Also 1 last thing, why the would we sell maatsen🤣 get him back and sell sick note chilwell.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 10:46:05
Poch, I want Poch to be our manager at the start of next season.

Maatsen, that ship looks to have sailed but we may well regret it. Anyway I thought Hall was a better prospect.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 10:52:43
I don't think hall done anything to prove he's a better prospect than maatsen tom
Its a real shame to sell someone like maatsen and them scamper around the market and over pay for someone whos not better.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 11:47:19
I just think he was a better defender and more importantly he could play as a midfielder. If we continue with this inverted FB (not a fan) shape he would have suited it perfectly.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 11:52:28
I agree Poch about Maatsen, shame he never really got a chance at LB. I could never really understand why Poch played him on the RW during pre-season. I do understand his concern for lack of height in the side so maybe that is a factor?

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 12:21:11
I think the height thing at FB could be a reasonable call. I also think Cucarella is marginally better
In the air than Chilly and of course James is better in the air than Gusto.

I think we have a dedicated defence coach coming in and it will be interesting to see if that improves our defending of set plays.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 12:36:08
I’d sign Messi, Chiellini and Buffon. Sell Cech, Ballack and Ivanovic.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 19:32:33
Poch sorry but I disagree with all your proposed additions. You mean if you are asked to bring a striker that will improve us you will choose solanke and even don't fancy osihmen. May we never have the decision makers at Chelsea to reason this way.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 21:44:36
I didn't pick oshimen simply because I don't see us as attractive to him, i see psg written all over oshimen, but obviously if we were to go crazy an sign him i wouldn't complain,
its ok to disagree with me the 1s mentioned above are purely speculation and maybe picking ex chels players with my blinkers on🤣🤣.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 22:28:59
Poch, I’m was bit of a Osimhen and Napoli ageing groupie. So much so I went over to Naples hoping to get a ticket for a game and then celebrate with the fans when they won the league.

Osimhen looked unplayable last season but hasn’t looked as good this season on the league and he was bang average in the AFCON tournament.

I was totally convinced he would sign for us at the end of this season but now I doubts as it now looks as if he could be going to PSG. I would still like us to sign him but I to admit I’m not as convinced about as I was.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 23:56:10
Either way im very excited with or without oshimen tom we will thrive as a club with this young group.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 07:44:23
Obviously hoping for an end of season win today but I'm not confident.

I can see Bournemouth causing us problems and Solanke always seems to be playing very well at the moment.

It would be awful if our small bubble burst in the last game of the season.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 11:43:16
It would be a great pity not to win today Tom for the reasons you give and also because it's our last home game and would feel like an anitclinax after recent results. We would need a win an d Soutrs to lose to ctach them, unlikely. We need a draw to finish ahead of Newcastle and guarantee some kind of European football and that must be the bottom line. But yes anything can happen in EPL games given standard of the league and we need to be at them them from v start for full game, no slow moments after half time.

I do think thenplayers should be more than up for it and all CFC on field and in the stands will want to gve Silva a good send off.

So hugely hope we do!

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 12:15:09
JBS, such is football I can see us and the spuds both losing! That would be very “spursy” and very Chelsea.

Agree0 0Disagree

Congratulations to our chelsea women, champions once again.

Agree0 0Disagree

18 May 2024 17:44:38
Brilliant and just gereat for Emma Hayes to end with yet another trophy. She must be Alex Ferguson level successful in this respect. Just a pit that v dodgy refereeing cost her and CFC a cnache of wimming the women's Champions League.

Agree0 0Disagree

18 May 2024 17:47:50
Absolutely Bill, champions again!

The profile our women’s team give our club is enormous. Very attractive proposition for club sponsors.

Good luck to EH and FK who will now move on to pastures new. Both are Chelsea legends.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 11:45:14
Hi TomB - Don't forget Marin Mjelde who has also been a great servant to theclub.

Agree0 0Disagree

19 May 2024 12:12:27
Dempsey, good call. If I remember correctly she picked up a bad knee injury a few season ago but she did score some important goals. Also and again if I remember correctly EH refers to her as a “Chelsea legend” and that would be good enough for me!

Agree0 0Disagree

18 May 2024 17:00:29
Well done Chelsea Ladies.5 in a row. Brilliant.

Agree0 0Disagree

18 May 2024 17:44:53
Fantastic!

Agree0 0Disagree

18 May 2024 09:23:18
I will be at the game tomorrow. It could well be the last time I see Cucarella, Gallagher and Chalaboa playing in Chelsea colours and it will definitely be the last time I see Silva playing for us in the Premiership.

As I said a long time ago I can see about ten players (including loan players) leaving CFC in this window. Thanks and good luck to all of them.

I can't see us being crowned champions next season but it is the first time in a couple of years that I will renewing my season ticket with expectations rather than trepidation.

Anyway, COME on MY MIGHTY BLUES.

Agree1 1Disagree

18 May 2024 13:15:32
I hope we keep Big Trev but I understand he is looking for a move to get regular playing time, Conor will leave if he doesn't sign that contract and I hope Marc C stays, he has been brilliant since his surgery and it is great to hear the match day fans singing his name. Silva is doing his coaching badges and I would love to see him back one day as our head coach.
