Ahhh, I slept well, and now enjoying reading the match reports 

Is your memory that bad now you can’t remember what happened last night?

I may be alone or in a small minority? , but there was precious little, if anything at all to get up about on last nights performance - yeah we won, but it wasn’t enjoyable to watch, in fact it was desperate, just awful.

God bless him, sky interviewed Tammy after the match and he was understandably pleased with him self, but - I’m paraphrasing - he said something like, “ it needed us to perform and we did “ - not in the game I was watching ? 

However, my mum always told me that ‘there were worse things that could happen’ , ‘there is always someone worse off than you’,  ‘to look on the bright side’ and for me to ‘count my blessings’ -  not necessarily sure any of that is true, but here is a facetious look at how it might be;

This could have been the team to face them c**ts on Boxing Day;

Kepa £72 million

Zappacosta £22.5 million ( someone’s gotta play on the right !)

Christensen  2 bob 

Rudiger £31.5 million

Rahman Baba £23.5 million

Drinkwater £35 million

Jorginho  £51.3 million

Baboyoko £36 million

Batshuayi £35 million

Havertz £72 million

Werner £47.7 million

It’s made up of players who are current Chelsea players, albeit some are on loan, who have all set the world alight with their performances in Chelsea blue !! and all at a cost of around £426.6 million pounds - it doesn’t sound so much if you say it quick !!!

 

Yeah whats the point. Shut it all down.

Carlo stopped a penalty, right?

Hello V,

Not sure there was one nor that it was needed ?

I was thinking about alternative players to counter injury and poor performances, so I amused myself with looking at who was available  - then took it further to consider loan players (who technically wouldn’t be able to play) and put together, irreverently and facetiously, a side who, in my opinion, haven’t (yet and may not yet) cut it in Chelsea blue and when I applied their transfer costs into the equation, I found it incredible that we have spent so much for so poor a return - I don’t mean to suggest that we are the only club to do so , but it certainly made me sit up when I realised.

So there wasn’t really a point, but since you bring it up, maybe it was about making others realise how wasteful we can be with transfers? or maybe it was to illustrate how difficult it is to get it right in the transfer market? or maybe how poor our scouts are? or maybe to ask the question as to how a player can be worth the money we pay - let’s say justifiably - and yet be so bad when he puts the shirt on? but I really think it was just supposed to be a light hearted, facetious look at who is still on our books ? 

So, in short, you were bored

We should probably consider giving the points back to the premier league

You are most probably right  but now that I’ve looked I can’t unlook ? !!

Very true.
