Yeah, he's an elite baseball player for his age, so I haven't messed with it too much. 
We had rules here where we weren't allowed to punt the ball until they were 10... well Sean could throw it over the midfield line.... I'd say "that's my center fielder"
Oh, and most importantly, I'm raising him right 😀
 
 

Why would we do that? He's one of the more valuable squad options we've got. I don't understand that at all.

But Rice and Barkley are two very different players. I can understand selling/loaning out RLC or Jorginho, but Barkley was probably our best backup for midfield. It's idiotic.

Declan Rice is unlikely in my opinion to be good enough for a Chelsea top level team. He may get away with it if he is surrounded by quality in every other position. He would be ok as cover/ League cup but that's all. With all of the recent exciting transfers in and the quality existing young players it would be a shame to lower our standards. Hopefully West Ham will push the price up and we will withdraw🙂

Welcome to Chelsea Ben. 
 
Any negativity should now go out the window. He’s our player and deserves our full support. 
 

Also not good that when CHO did eventually come on, he didn't do anything. Sorry if that's harsh.

120M for a goalie is not good business IMO.
An average/decent goalie would look great behind an excellent defense. Spend the money on the back four.

Unsurprising as he is a bloody midfielder!  
How many games has he played at CB other than the one or two recently because of injuries to the West Ham defence?

Okay, he's young, English, completely overrated.
He's not even CB.
And completely banal.
Please, not this, we made 2 such good purchases outside the English market.
No Chilwell or Declan Rice ... please.

Are you 8 years old? These 'wordplay' slurs towards our own players are neither funny nor clever. I keep seeing them and they irritate me to no end

After the CL semi-final results it would only take Arsenal to beat us in the final of the Europa to make this officially the worst season ever in the history of football.

I feel sorry for the guy, Sarri has pretty much pinned everything on him. He's out of form or simply not good enough but starts all the time. That's not his fault.
I do think he's an extremely limited footballer though and really struggle to see how he's playing this standard of football.

Deserved the new contract alone for this comment if it’s true, legend!

Don't even think it was his fault to be honest. It was just an all round team error so he shouldn't beat himself up about it. 
He was gesturing to Rudiger that he didn't want the pass back in the first place, Fabregas wasn't even looking when Christensen played the ball and Dave should have stood his ground instead of diving in. I can understand Dave diving in, I would have done the same myself but the other two mistakes leading up to the goal is just poor play. 

So even though you are a Chelsea fan, you would still move to Real Madrid ? I don't know how any fan of a club could say something like that. 
If i was a Chelsea footballer, i would never leave. If i moved to any other club it would feel like a step down. There is no way i could get as emotionally involved playing for another club if i just left the club i have supported since i was a kid.

You do know it's possible to be supportive and appreciative and all that bs AND discuss on a forum where there is room for improvement, "riiiiiight"?

lethal with his head, but bloody hell those 1v1 chances with the keeper are just not coming off. i am hoping they will come off soon, maybe saving 'em for the round of 16 lol

That one picture sums up the double standards in English football, it's blatant and embarrassing. Another fine for a Chelsea manager, on the same day Pep shouts and swears at a Southampton player, lies about it and the media say Redmond should ‘feel honoured’, this sh*t doesn't even surprise me anymore.

With the way Real Madrid are going this season, i can see a huge offer from them coming in for Hazard. Honestly, i will be gutted if he leaves, it would be nice to see a few players turn down Real Madrid now and again. Also, for us, i don't think we can replace him. Give us £200m and i still don't think we can replace what Hazard gives us. It would be a huge blow if Hazard was to leave any time soon, i would rather have the player than the money.
One player doesn't make a team, but without Hazard, i don't think we will win anything. He's that good right now.

Last season he turned a team that ended 10th into Champions, he changed things when they were catastrophic after our back to back defeats against Arsenal and Liverpool. He is smart enough that he knows this isn't working, he has to be given time to change things around again. I don't think that Roman will be that patient but i hope he will be.

I've defended him and defended him and no this is not an overreaction, his time in the pivot needs to come to an end NOW!
That was abysmal, his distribution wasn't that bad, it's never usually a problem, besides that one error which lead to the goal. But my god is he useless off the ball, just like I said, it's like Big Dave from the pub playing in midfield when Fabregas isn't on the ball, I'm sure he's got a Nigerian passport and he's really 36, those injuries have really taken its toll on him.  

I think it's the right time for him to be benched like last season. He doesn't perform like he knows, a big disappointment from him this season.

Well those were some sh*t highlights on MOTD

Dean Saunders just proving what a prize prick he is on ITV4 World Cup Highlights. ' I find it strange Hazard is suddenly fit for Belgium when he's been unfit all season'   What a cnut!
