Oh here we go. Another keeper linked despite having one of Europe's best-performing data geeks on our books already. CFC the goalkeeping elephant graveyard of the premiership.

Willy Caballero was an awful premiership keeper.

The agents are sounding out potential moves given the last two seasons.. Can see it happening and him going back to city or Liverpool... another reality of hiring a second rate manager.

Mate, what a wast of time defending this clueless manager. We are where we are because of this guys tactics. We've been aweful since december, we get more and more unwatchable... The football is turgid, rotten, and players who scored goals at other clubs and freely for us are not even capable of hitting a barn door - from freescorers to low scorers, we are simply awful to watch. From second to joint 6th with Villa. I dont really give a sh*t about the yank and what they want, they just want to extract as much money from you and us fans as possible. They dont care about us, making money is the motivation for them buying CFC... As a fan, I dont align with that vision and expect my club to compete as best it can... so when the team sinks from 2nd in the division to joint 6th and misses out on playing entertaining european football I get a bit pissy. I get a bit pissy when Im not entertained and bored to death watching what should be entertaining and passionate football be so dull I get more fun watching my niece playing under 5's... So while im epathatic to Enso, lovely guy, I can tell you he isnt the right fit. It happens in all walks of life, CFC is a club too big for his mid table aspirations and playing style.

Wrong way around, we're Strasbourgs feeder club

f**k off in the summer please Maresca... Thank you for your consideration on this matter. Please, f**k off with turd ball

If he's here next season cool, if hes not, cool... Much rather we placed George ahead of him but we clearly need more wingers... We need wingers over defenders, a keeper and a couple of strikers. TBH, think we should sign a team of wingers and play them in every position.

Despite the win against fulham, my vision felt visibly worse after watching chelsea struggle to register a shot on target. two in the last 5 mins was like a mirical sent from the heavans. However, its going to be turgid again against Everton. David Moyes teams usually play ergonomic football that is comparable to ours. So a draw 0-0 probably given both teams dont know what a goal is. I'll take 3 points but rekon Everton could well do a snaatch and grab on us. fooking scooooouuuussss barstewards.

Only thing that'll save Maresca is the players own pride as shown yesterday. Until George pulled us back level we didnt look like scoring and we an aweful watch.

Its monday and despite winning yesterday Jim has woken up with his knickers in a twist over a man he doesnt know. have a good week everyone

See first half of season... we were winning week in and out or consistently. It's only you who bring in our previous owners to the debate. This was a team competing with Liverpool at the top of the table. You talk of reflex sacking a manager... Our new owners are worse at hiring and firing than Roman was, Maresca is the fifth manager in three years, only watford or Leeds have probably appointed more managers in this time. Big win against a side who are worse than us in the division. The league table doesnt lie this time of the year. If you want top four or titles these are the games we needed to be winning all season. Anyhow. Can see you been drinking from the kool aid fountain so leave you to the high...

MOM. George... guy is mr positive vibe... Somehow, from somewhere. unbelievable

Time has slowed down watching this. Playing like a team that's already lost in the 80th minute.

👸 Glory 🕳️

that wasnt really my point, nor was I bringing Roman into this. Seeming as you have... At no point did Roman sack as many managers as Blue co have in the past three years unless my aging brain is forgetting something. So, blue co are currently more trigger happy than Roman ever was. The real point i was trying to make was fans were right behind this team, even sang Marescas name, We were second, we were flying, we were beating teams in the division and scoring lots of goals and were being super competitive despite having a dodgy defence... Now, were looking at another pretty abject season and potentially finishing worse off than last. We have seen Blue co do not stick to their own plans... from signing players on big wages and handing out contract extensions to farming said players out on loan to offering huge contracts to managers and then sacking them or letting them go. Love the optomism but feel its slightly misplaced.

hey Evissy, See Sir Lamps words in this article from the time before on the BBC... Not a long time ago. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/65407430 Lampard is Chelsea's third manager this season, after Thomas Tuchel and Graham Potter, and the fans' frustrations at an expensively assembled squad losing while once again barely laying a glove on their opponent was apparent as the few still in Stamford Bridge at full-time greeted the whistle with boos. "I've no problem with that, completely understand it," Lampard told BBC Sport, of the Chelsea supporters making their feelings known. "I know these fans very well and they stick by their team. They feel down because they are used to success and they want that success all the time as we all do. I absolutely understand it, we as players and staff have to take it on the chin because they want results. ====== For his sp*rs sins, Poch got us playing some ball. We were moving in a direction that culminated in his departure and we have fallen off a cliff form wise since Maresca got his ideas 100 percent across. Goals make fans happy and we're struggling to score again. What a difference four months make from second to where we are. I think that is the cause for fan disillusionment. We have backed this side. Even sang we got our chelsea back... but what has happened since December is a pretty epic decline in standards this group of players set. We know they can play, we saw them move to 2nd in the league, now, those same players are having a torrid time. That's where we're at. Enzo needs to correct the slump in form... if he does that he might win the fans back. who knows, but from CL certainty to potentially no european football at all.

Dont forget Felix, Disasi, Sterling, Chilwell to come back in the summer. Going to be a happy camp.

Agree with that... Guiu injury kind of typifies all that is wrong with the board, the fact they also haven't reinforced or given Maresca an option has left us desperately short, criminal to go into the season with two strikers given Nukunku's injury record and the fact hes not a striker. I see Jackson as a Mane type player tbh... said it months ago... but in the absence of anyone being able to do the job, we have Jackson. Since Maresca got his ideas across, we've virtually stopped scoring so Im not holding Jackson to blame for that, in the same way I dont with Palmer who cant hit a barn door right now. No one is calling Palmer a donkey or unintelligent, thick or stupid or using tropes against him, Im also of the opinion that our wingers will become lively once not playing in a Maresca formation... the level of abuse/vitriol aimed at Jackson is frankly disgusting by Jim, You judge people on their actions and what they say... Jim lives in a f**king dustbin. Vile pathetic cowardly creature who admitted earlier in the season on this thread he wouldnt say anything to Jackson's face. Basically a total c**t and keyboard warrior. f**k him. fan, nah a total queen more like it. For his faults, there were many, Poch got us scoring, yes we played awful at times, but we were competitive in so many more games because of the goal threat this team carries that it no longer doesn't. Blame players all we want, but the fault lies at the feet of the manager, in the same way we struggled to score under Tuchel when our full backs got injured, or under potter when we played much like Maresca does now. Anyhow, this season is pissing me off, so going to leave it hear just read on from the background. Enjoy the rest of another sh*t season at CFC. looking forward to test cricket and summer heat, not even bothering with the CWC... Dump Maresca and or his tactics these players start performing.

Jim, I have a lot of patience for lots of different views, but given you couldn't debate a single point, I raised about a footballer, choosing to turn on another random person, again shows what a little princess you actually are when you're own troubled views are pointed out to you. Feel free to call me what you want, im beyond caring at this point cause I just think your a massive queen so go ponce about some place. Last post from me to you drama queen. Kiss Kiss

Jim, you dont talk about how good or bad a player is, you simply bash the player. you have called him uneducated, donkey, all manner of other slurs... I guess you do so to make yourself feel better... But FYI, i still think youre a total bell end with a mental health disorder, given your obsessional levels of criticism. It isnt normal... Clearly there isnt anything wrong with the player in question - just what is going on in your head and your belief that shouting down random folk on a forum will change the outcome of Jackson starting football matches for the club you say you support. its been more than 12 months of you being a hysterical queen shouting continued nonsense. What are you hoping to achieve with your bouts of hysteria? and funny, when someone insults you you come on here to defend yourself... Jackson who you've been trolling for nearly two years doesnt get that right. So Again says more about you than the player. Anyhow... Go polish some head - seems to have worked for a number of friends of mine down the years all exhibiting your bizar behaviour and patterns of hatred... ;-) Jog on and dont look back

Sadly, despite blocking you, I can see some of your bile in the latest comments. I dont blame Jackson being asked to lead the line for us. He has many merits and I'm looking around the squad and wondering who could do it? There isnt, therefore, Jackson leads the line and despite all your illogical nasty bile laden rants, Jackson still plays as striker. Does this make you feel inferior or make you feel stupid that despite more than 12 months of shelling out abuse as a anti-CFC player hater he's still leading the line for us... In his absence who stepped up and led the line out of our entire squad? Yeah, nobody. The show must go on, your glory hole opens in an hour so best go get yourself ready...

Jim, take a break man... you've been waiting to spit your bile since Jackson got injured... After more than 12 months of this, it is you who looks like a thick, uneducated donkey, it is pathetic you cant get closure on a man who plays for a club you support. Go run a glory hole or something you hysterical queen..

If I may point it out. Scoring lots of goals had us second in the league table 3 points behind Liverpool heading into Xmas. What was wrong with that given where it had put us in the table and why did it need changing? Maresca on current form would be beaten in the league position by a David Moyes side and he won Europes third tier competition with West Spam. You really have been drinking from the blueCo Koolaid fountain.

How about he gets the side playing fast flowing attacking football that wins matches... Its really simple. It brings fans onside... We'll happily support the team/ players and club when that happens. We had it earlier in the season and then a handbrake was applied and we've been turd since. Clearly, Maresca has little to no understanding about Chelsea, they way we've played or what us fans enjoy. Its his way or no way and he aint a winner, but turning into a whiny looser. His brand of football is dead. That time of football is over and he needs to change or adapt or be unemployed sitting on his millions of pounds pay out. Maresca wins if he stays or goes, we fans miss out on being entertained and competing at the top of the table. Please stop defeding mediocrity and we were going places before Roman before you use this as an excuse. the football pre Roman was more expansive and entertaining that current offerings at the bridge. I will celebrate his last day at the club like we won a cup.

a few things spring from that data really. 1) Maresca is an absolute moron from turning us from title contenders to mid table fodder gievn how week the league is. 2) should have stuck with Poch as his style got us to second in the table despite people loathing the guy around here. 3) always a team that drops down the league at Xmas to relegation fodder, next season, we wont have the Chaos ball to fall back on and if the league quality improves, its been abysmal this year, we could see ourselves in trouble. 4) Maresca has nuked Palmer
