We could only dream of being that lucky.

How can you be doing well defensively when you get booked for a silly Foul you didn't need to make and then sent off for a foul you didn't need to make within half an hour? He just looks like a player with no intelligence and little technical ability which hinders his passing and he's trying to make up for it with his physicality and workrate. Coupled with him being so eager to impress he's a complete positional liability just like last week.

Jorginho deserves a knighthood. He's surrounded by clowns and professional hospital patients. Basically playing in a midfield 1 every other game because no one else can stay fit or keep themselves on the pitch.

The Other way around is more likely.

He was utterly utterly useless. The yellow was silly. The red was pure stupidity. Like a mad dog chasing cars. Same as last week.

Gallagher by far. Well he was before he left the pitch.

We've been so bad I'm worried Fofana is going to sign a new contract.

Would offer him to Palace for Zaha tonight.

Mendy is legit the worst keeper in the league other than Kepa. He was so commanding when he came in, What the hell is going on with our goal keeper coaching?

I'm 100% certain Gallagher will never play another game under Tuchel. Loaned out in the next few days and sold if Tuchel stays. Absolutely shocking 2 games from him.

Not being the worst keeper in premier league history would have been a start.

There is literally no one else.

Absolutely. Jordan Belfort couldn't give that turd away. We've struggled to move deadwood on all window. It's been one of the problems of the window.

Not even remotely close at this stage.

Hard to evaluate a window if you're ignoring at least half of the equations. The players we've signed are great. But people will rightly point to the fees we've paid and question if we got value for money. I'm not so sure particularly with the fees for Fofana and the two young players.

Based on what? He hasn't even played a game for France who have plenty young and talented defenders. He had a reasonably good season then a long term injury but to suggest he's the best young defender in the world seems a massive stretch. Personally I'd rather have Kounde who I think has shown a much higher level albeit in a different league. But Fofana clearly has a lot of potential so despite overpaying we're getting a good player.

Don't think you can Argue the England job is bigger than Chelsea or Brighton. The Premier league is the absolute peak, international football is a dreadful irrelevant dirge. It always makes me laugh when managers like Potter, Howe or other young promising managers are linked with the England job. There's a reason why England ended up with Southgate after Gareth proved he wasn't good enough to manage in the Premier league.

If we sack Tuchel surely we have to hire Klopp. He's also met the sackable offence threshold of having a poor first 3 games to the season so I expect he'll be avaliable at the same time we sack Tuchel.

Chelsea 4 - 1 Leicester Gordon x 2. Kepa (OG) Fofana (OG) Maguire All 5 goals assisted by Jorginho.

When people say a manager should be backed they invariably mean the manager should be given unlimited funds to sign whatever player is on their own personal wishlist not whoever the manager actually wants.

I thought Ruben was terrible myself. Refusing to strike the ball when running onto a 1 vs 1 from about 8 yards out is one of the worst passages of play I've genuinely ever seen on a football pitch. Reece Buries that, any other fullback I can think of at least takes the shot. Ruben always wants 3 touches too many.

Well we clearly didn't given no one in our team managed to score 20+ goals last season. If you're referring to Fat Rom he didn't manage to score 20 goals in his last season at United. Infact in his 8 seasons in the Premier league he scored 20+ league goals exactly once. Harry Kane or Sergio Aguero he is not.

Our American forward was far more uninspiring a signing. Probably the worst I've felt about a signing since it was clear he was going to be our Hazard replacement and he was less talented than Edens siblings! Thorgan was massively outperforming him in the Bundesliga at the time, thought we'd have brought him back due to us apparently having a buyback clause when he was at Gladbach. I never really feel uninspired when we sign a cheap player that will likely never make the squad, football is a business and we've brought in hundreds of players over the years to fill the loan army or just never make it. They're forgettable. It's when we spend big money on players that are clear downgrades on what we have or haven't shown anything to suggest they're Chelsea standard you really put your head in your hands.

Can't wait to see the usual suspects talk about how much worse Tuchel is making everything if we can't beat the best team on the planet away.
