If Jackson can't score that how is he going to become the goal scorer we need? No composure in front of the goal.

I was hoping for top half of the league, at this point I feel like I should be hoping to not get relegated.

You are telling me you seriously have hope for this team being able accomplish something this season?

3 teams get relegated though

Wow I am already ready to give up on this team. Seriously concerned this team will be relegated.

What is going on?

COYB

Ok but for right now they could legitimately be looked at as a better team until we *hopefully* overpower them with the overwhelming resources of our ownership group.

I wouldn't say that too loudly considering Brighton were better last year and thus far are looking better this year. Granted it's still early.

Ok, I can't watch this game because I don't have the add on's to watch the FA and EFL Cup games. How are we losing to a league 2 team? This is just sad.

Wasn't able to watch because I was driving home and then getting the kids ready so we could go play soccer. Glad to see they got the win, gives me a bit of confidence that we can avoid relegation at least. But they need to start recording wins against mid table teams.

Ok if we don't win this game I'm gonna worry about Chelsea being relegated. I mean if you can't beat Luton Town at home . . . Unfortunately I may not be able to see most of it because I'll be driving home from work and we're suppose to get the kids ready and go someplace.

I hope not. Top 8 should be considered decently successful considering the age of the squad. The squad is too young to realistically compete for a top 4 spot. Especially when the competition in the league is even deeper than before.

Yay we have a shirt sponsor. I don't mind the shirts without the sponsors name on them but since football is driven by how much money each team has I would hate to see Chelsea miss out on a bunch of money due to lack of a sponsor.

I thought he still did VAR but he apparently has retired from that too. Good riddance.

I was having a good day, now I'm all pissed off about a match that took place a year ago. And I keep having this probably inaccurate belief that had the outcome of that been different perhaps the outcome of the season would have been different.

I don't know what is going on in the premier league but if an official in the NFL admitted to missing a call just cause he didn't feel like making the call or because it might make a friend look bad, that official would be fired. And while I don't think it would go this far, there would be calls for them to be criminally prosecuted for match fixing. And lord knows the NFL isn't full of saints but you couldn't make an admission like that and keep your job. It is unfathomable to me that Mike Dean still has a job.

The back end has been mistake after mistake after mistake.

If they were intending on jumping straight back to the CL, they should have gotten more experienced players.

And dribble and shoot and he can do none of these.

I am just going to say it. Mudryk is terrible. All he has in his tool bag is speed. He has no technical ability what so ever.

Outside of Silva the back line does not impress.

A lot of young players on this team. They need confidence that they can collectively win at this level.

Play has been good but we got to get some wins to start exercising the demons of last season.
