Haha to be honest we were always looking light there from the get go, we have 4 senior cbs one being a youngster who is now injured and the other being Gomez who I love but also injury prone so I’m not sure not playing Konate is even much of an option even if we wanted to

Agreed but I’d be surprised if we did. 1 max I reckon and maybe another in the summer

Manager, players, coaches, recruitment team, tragic loss of Jota. All are factors in what we’re seeing this season. On paper this team can do much better and I find it hard to believe the players have given up on Slot after just winning the league but equally he doesn’t seem to be able to fix it

The only consolation is that this squad is so much better than we’re seeing. It’s not like years gone by where the majority of the team weren’t up to it, this (on paper) is a side that should compete on all fronts

Nope, I think people over time forget just how bleak that was. This is rubbish but with the consolation that there is at least a squad full of very good players (albeit space jammed)

Certainly not all on him and I hate to say it but Slot is likely in big trouble here. Such a drop off from winning the title!

As a side note I do wonder if playing on the left would be a good way for Wirtz to settle into the team initially

Brilliant performance!

Thanks mate, and of course no worries at all, I hope you’re doing well

This team is all over the place, and worryingly looks the same each week

Wirtz has been good too imo, still settling in of course but shown flashes of what he can do, needs more game time not less

Yeah it sucks and was a dreadful watch, bit of a bogey side for us it feels.

Live by the late winner die by the late winner. On to the next one 👊

Could easily be 3 or 4 down here, the only plus so far is that it’s only 1

There’s potential there, unfortunately Chelsea fans rarely deviate from the classic ‘ Chelsea, Chelsea, Chelsea, chelseaaaa’ 😂

A fair point, was torn due to the fact he doesn’t seem to be getting as many chances at the moment

That’s a good side, I’m struggling between Salah or Ekitike captain!

What a mental window, can’t recall one like it in my lifetime and the calibre of players signed makes for a potentially very exciting season. There’s still needs within the squad but have to enjoy moments like these

Agree on 9, whilst certain positions in the squad are still a bit light the level of quality arriving has made it one of the most exciting windows we’ve had

Yes folks. It's that time again.

the goal on ref cam

Late winners against Newcastle, been a lot of great ones over the years but what a moment for Rio! A lot of work to do based on first two games, but getting the wins the main thing

I can’t imagine mate, I hope one day at a time the pain eases, I know it’ll probably never fully go away but hopefully gets to a point where it’s less overwhelming

Soulless cunts mate, had a similar scenario with a family friend. Hope you’re doing ok (stupid as that sounds)

Nunez gone, then. It didn’t work out, but he helped us win the league, so it wasn’t a failed transfer.

Hope he has a great career. Crazy as a box of frogs 😂

Really sorry to hear this mate, there’s nothing I could say that helps but I hope you have people around you

Don’t want either of these guys to lose!

😖 so sad

Thinking of you mate, Paul has said it perfectly though, you’ve not let him down

Lost for words. We’ve lost one of footy good guys. Will love him forever. RIP Diogo. Thoughts are with his family.
