With our next potential game v Man City and arsenals v West Brom. That could possibly be 3 points ahead of arsenal lol the laughing stock that has been arsenal could be hot on our heels, let that sink in,

Haha. I was talking about this today and letting it sink in naturally haha.

Strange season but it also shows that one result can change a clubs season and performances.

Thing is though Matt Frank is a club legend so a few of the deluded ones on here won’t care. 220 million and were going backwards.
We’re relying on Ziyech to come back for creativity because after spending 220m on loads of players we’re reliant on one as he’s ruined Werner and Havertz.
My favourite player of all time but he is one very poor manager.

I’ve said this so many times Graham.
I can’t remember a single poster who’s has said that Lamps shouldn’t be judged as a manager not a club legend.
If there has been the odd one then they are wrong!

It’s more than one result though, West Brom, Everton, wolves arsenal villa Southampton, now I’m no idiot snd I know this league is tough and no result is a guarantee but being 3 down to West Brom, letting a two goal lead go at saints, not creating a chance v Everton, losing to arsenal so easily, leading to villa and wolves, only beating one team in top half of league,

I agree it’s not good at the moment Matt and it’s a struggle to keep the faith but I’m sure we will get over this slump.
Remember, it’s not that many weeks ago that we were on an good unbeaten run . We can go again Matt.

Seriously?!
If Kepa, Alonso, Silva and others make costly mistakes that leads to goals, it's FL's fault?
At least be fair in your assessments!
@graham:
Calling people deluded is not nice. I think it actually says a bit about you mate. Making or building anything that lasts, takes time and effort. Nothing happens over night.
The truth is, Chelsea hasn't had stability since 2012 or maybe even a few years before that, despite winning two PLs and UELs and FA Cup in that time span.
If you want a good team that is competitive for more than 5 years, you need to invest in it, and I'd say investing time is more important than money.
Also, there is 22 more games remaining. Be patient.

Ash there is a lot of deluded people on this site including yourself. Tom gets away with calling people names on this site yet he’s not banned.

One interesting observation, I am interested to know whether a lack of confidence in players can be attributed to the manager?
29 Dec 2020 22:12:07
Graham, don’t think so. I just lose track of how many names people use.
