He won't be sacked, because there are no standards, so he's not missing any targets. We're just told this a a young squad a few years away from challenging for anything, so he'll plod along for a while being mediocre, all the while we continue to add more 16 and 17 year olds and continue to be a young squad years away from challenging. It's simply not about winning for this ownership. It's about player flipping. And apparently it was about trying to maximise revenue after the CWC, but they still can't even get a f**king shirt sponser.

2 RBs in centre midfield. Amazing.

Another classic Chelsea performance. 90 minutes on the clock, losing, and passing it around between CBs. Not a brain cell between the players or coaching staff.

every stream so far is freezing constantly for me. anyone got a good one?

Hato needs games. Cucu can’t play every single 90 mins

He has a habit of that sort of thing whenever he's left out.

He looks nowhere near the level either from what I've seen. Sadly, that's the state of the club now. Just an endless procession of young players who aren't good enough, but who might turn a profit one day.

He’s no better than delap or Pedro. Doesn’t get involved much and Strikes the ball the worse of the three.

Pure garbage

Apparently the sporting directors and owners do.

We look like a lower division team. Haven't seen a performance this bad since Wednesday.

This is why you don't do what Maresca did against Leeds. We were in good form, confident, then he f**ks that game up and now look how anxious everyone looks because they don't want to lose again. We will never win anything of note with this manager.

Can't wait.

All of those players are weak as a sheet of paper in a hurricane, the slightest touch and down they go, hoping for a free-kick. God awful manager who never ever learns from mistakes. Atrocious players, barring a few bright sparks who won't stick around for long with the weight of carrying this team on their shoulders (Caicedo, Palmer, Estevao). No surprise at all that Sanchez has looked good with a confident defence in front of him, so of course this bald twat throws the usual Tosin + (whoever) pairing, plus CHalobah out of position, and suddenly Sanchez is all over the place. We were 2nd for a few days and it seems it went to everyone's heads. We're more likely to finish 10th than 2nd. I'm just so tired of the same sh*t all the time. Everyone knew this was a defeat and could have described the whole 90 minutes for you, the moment the teams were announced. Every time we take a small step forward in our progression as a team, we immediately make 12 sideways ones between Tosin and Badiashile, and then go backwards to where we started.

Fleeced by Brighton, yet again.

Worst CB we've had since Ben Haim.

There is no chance he's sacked this season.

How many times this season are we going to see this exact game? Playing against someone we should be favourites against, makes far too many changes usually including 2 new CBs who rarely play together, have a woeful first half, then 3 changes at HT to "correct" his mistakes, then we just lose anyway.

Get out

Exactly what I expected. As soon as we play a "lesser" team, we immediately revert to type. Too many changes. Slow football going nowhere, can't create anything. Maresca will never learn.

I didn't see the 2nd half, but I hear he was good.

Strasbourg next season for him

James at CM just doesn't offer anything.
