  1. It's okay if you want to be gay in 2026, bro.
  2. You're not serious. You're wasting both of our time now. Guiu played in The Conference League, Yamal played in The Champions League. It's okay. You're a Palmer fanboi and don't like Neto. Some lads like cock, others don't. The duality of man. There's your context. This was never a case of Neto vs Palmer anyway.
  3. Nobody mentioned only league output. He's scored 10 goals and assisted 7 goals this season. He scored 9 goals and assisted 9 goals last season. Palmer's poor form started before his injuries this season. He scored 1 PL goal across his last 16 PL games last season. And it was a penalty. Since the 14th of January 2025, Palmer has 25 goal contributions. Over the same period, Neto has 27 goal contributions. It's a dumb comparison anyway. Palmer is not exclusively a RW. He plays lots of games as an AM
  4. Neto is a consistent 7/10 player most games. Not a superstar, but a solid player to have in a squad. He'll get close to 10 goals and 10 assists a season. A nice age too, at 26. A lot of the other wide players are 18-22. He brings some needed maturity to the flanks. He's been surprisingly injury free at Chelsea compared to Wolves. I'd cash in on Palmer now before he potentially has a poor start to next season, which would tank his value. A quality AM would have to be brought in. Maybe Palmer will regain his form under a new coach. 16 months of sporadic form is worrying though.
  5. Foden and Palmer should be playing in The Baller League next season.
  6. It's an unordered list. It goes from ST backwards anyway. Palmer needs to be sold. He already has one foot out the door, and has declined massively over the past 16 months. He's scored 10 PL goals since mid January 2025. 6 of the 10 goals are penalties. Cash in on him now while his stock is still perceived as high. United would probably pay £100 million for him. Acheampong needs a loan. He needs a season of regular starts. Coventry might take him on loan for a season. Pedro Neto is a good squad player to keep around. He's capable of playing on both flanks.
  7. He's only 18. He has plenty of time to adapt physically. You'd expect him to be a more developed by 20/21. Messi was injury prone at 17-20.
  8. The United result was actually unlucky. That was a good performance. Last night's performance was one of the worst I've seen from any team this season. 0/10 bad. Practically no goal threats in the team. Enzo was the only one you thought that might nick a goal when the team news was announced.
  9. Why would anyone willingly consume Brent Di Cesare's content? Yes, a manager needs a certain amount of power. But not complete control. Arteta has a lot of power at Arsenal. It still hasn't lead to major success in terms of trophies thus far. If he doesn't win a trophy this season, it could be argued that all of that time, patiences and control that's been afforded to him has been for nothing. Chelsea have always had a high managerial turnover policy. It's generally worked for them. BlueCO have made dumb appointments. They only one they got right was Maresca who did actually deserve more time. He had shown signs of building something.
  10. The depth was much deeper last season. They then started the process of trimming the squad last January (2025). Madueke, Nkunku and Jackson's end product was miles ahead of Garnahco, Gittens and Delap's total contribution this season. The only players who should be definite keeps for next season are: J.Pedro P.Neto Estêvão Quenda (arrives in July) A.Santos Caicedo Cucurella Hato Colwill Chalobah R.James
  11. He needed to be sacked this morning. A new manager bounce is needed to lift the team for the SF at the weekend. He should never have taken the job. Young managers always let ambition/ego get the better of them. They can't seem to turn these opportunities down.
  12. United were terrible. 4 shots all game. They defended for their lives in the 2nd half. A good finish from a bobbly ball into the box was the only quality from United. They were very lucky to win. An xG of just 0.29. Terrible finishing from Chelsea. Delap is nowhere near good enough. J.Pedro would have finished 1 of those chances. Chelsea hit the woodwork 3 times. That's a bit unlucky. BlueCo have a lot to answer for. The squad depth is miles behind last season's.
  13. Sounds like something an old geezer born during the war would say. Fack your stats, innit. Even if Chelsea had spent 50 million on him, he was never going to be some monstrous defence splitting midfielder.
  14. They are clearly playing for him. Liverpool were outplayed for most of the game. Chelsea created 5 big chances compared to Liverpool's 1 big chance. The players have got to take some responsibility for a lack of conviction in certain games. There have been games where Chelsea have been fairly beaten, but also many games where the poor finishing has been the difference. Boehly and co's squad planning has been reckless.
  15. The stats back up his claim that he had a good game. Touches - 94 Passes - 64/68 completed (94% accuracy) Long balls - 5/6 completed Dribbles - 1/1 completed Fouls drawn - 3 Ground duels won - 11/15 Tackles - 7 Interceptions - 4 Clearances 3 Fouls committed - 3 Dribbled past - 0 times He did his job well. Some Chelsea fans have a weird agenda against him because they were expecting some kind of Kanté/Essien hybird or something. At the end of the day, Chelsea had 5 big chances and didn't convert them. That's on Gallagher and the forwards.
