Garnacho against Wolves yesterday. Led the team in xA (1.26) and successful deliveries into penalty area (10) and provided relentless passing threat into dangerous areas.

Guiu 2 shots from 2 yards, both off target

Ik you have mentioned on ur streams u haven’t been able to watch them much, but do u think Sonia it is more players or tactical? Under Sonia it seems to me we rely heavily on our players bailing us out and the vets looking way past it

WAKE UP! IT’S TIME FOR PLAYOFFS 😤

Swerve of all swerves, IMO

I’ve noticed a genuine disrespect of Adrian over the last two years. His “rest attack” (the Spirit’s shape when they’re defending that lets them transition into attack) is better than any team in the league. Players love him and he’s only lost once since becoming permanent head coach.

This week it's Gittens but it's been others going back to last year. Fundamentally if Maresca is making 9+ changes for a midweek game it's because he thinks the opponent is very shit and weighs the performance consistently.

I don't even have a picture for Panichelli in my database yet but the guy is putting up ridiculous numbers. Strasbourg aren't going to miss Emegha at all when he moves to Chelsea.

Good thing Delap is disciplined unlike Jackson

liam delap gives you all the selfish petulance of diego costa with none of the goals

Have you considered resting them? Like why did two of them start midweek? And Pedro has hardly been a major contributor.

Maybe only keeping Neto out of your attacking three was a bad idea. Plus no Palmer. But man selling all your shots was such an obvious issue.

Think it's been covered up a bit by the good attacking set pieces but Chelsea's open play underlyings have absolutely cratered.

1.52 xG per game from open play last season, 1.02 this season. YIKES

taking out josh acheampong for tosin when we're trying not to concede 💀 give him the full 90 he earned it

“When they rob us of art and emotion, that leads us towards the aesthetics of fascism. In this film, all the sets are real, the decor is human-sized, there are painstakingly created miniatures... It’s there to remind us that art is not only necessary, it is urgent. And AI can go fuck itself!”

Love to see it. I don't care which other Chelsea CB is declared fit in the next week, Acheampong should be starting against Forest.

Acheampong looks great. Who would have thought eh? Gaslighting the fans about Tosin's importance to the team was truly nasty work.

You want to talk player development, Aggie Beever-Jones came through as a long shot merchant who would stand completely still in the box when the ball went wide, and now is a relentless double move attack the near post throw herself at stuff bonafide goal scorer. Super cool.

Cobham England call-ups today:

Current: James, Acheampong, George, Murray-Campbell, Dyer, McMahon, Morgan, Derry, Mheuka, Emenalo, Walsh, Ezenwata.

Former: Guehi, Loftus-Cheek, Rice, Hall, Boniface, McAidoo.

Nobody does it better.

Must be nice.

Focusing on youth used to mean prioritising the development of young players with the hope of establishing them as core members of your team.

Focusing on youth at Chelsea means spending two years developing Madueke, Jackson etc. and then selling those players to restart the process.

Let ‘em know the Spirit IS IN 🗣️

Chelsea could've done Woltemade, they could've done Ekitike, and instead I gotta watch Joao Pedro take no shots as a striker every weekend. Sigh sigh sigh.

Watching Newcastle vs Arsenal and it reminds me of just how unathletic and weak Chelsea are. The directors have somehow built a young team that has very little pace, power and dynamism.

Forgot about it at the time but today was the 400th consecutive men's Chelsea fixture with at least one academy graduate in the matchday squad.

Maresca is going to lose his insecure little mind with the Jose love in this week

like i’m sympathetic to injuries, but if you spend an offseason buying 1 or 2 experienced, high quality players in positions of need instead of 3 or 4 young players with potential you don’t end up here

#CFC with more red cards than points in September. 🤦🏾‍♂️

Enzo Fernandez is Reform Pogba.

Hugely expensive midfielder

Anti-immigrant transphobe

Constant debate about unlocking him/playing deeper

Reputation built on international play

On my TV way too much

It's a bit weird to see the club ostensibly on the brink of crisis with an entirely foreseeable injury crisis and the manager picking fights with everyone and no sense that anything will happen other than being told "nothing could've been done to prevent this" while derailing our season
