embarrassingly bad tonight - we're a bang average mid-table team

Needs more time. I ain’t ready to give up on Frank just yet. 

Can Chelsea afford to stay out of the top 4 for a couple more seasons while Frank figures it out? I don't think so...

Frank should bring on Gilmour at HT for Havertz. At least the young Chelsea players will try. Too many of these expensive signings don't look up for it.

Don't think he won the header, rudiger did? I'll have to see the replay. And after that it's probably considered a different phase of play or something. 

I dunno, they've f**ked around with the offside law so much now I don't know what is or isn't 

You can't be offside from a goal kick.

Devestating. Absolutely devestating.

We have a really soft underbelly.

Really fear it's going to be the end for Lampard tonight.

Maybe for the best all round to be honest. Both for him and the club. He needs to drop back down a league or two to try and rebuild his reputation as a manager. 

You'd take Brendan Rogers in a heart beat to try and stabilise the club. A manager who picks a team rather than players and who knows what type of player works for him. Leicester are organised and know their game. We are the total opposite. On performance you wouldn't put a single one of our players in this Leicester team.

We are 9pts behind Leicester presently. Positive is as long as we are not getting relegated Lamps is doing a good job.

Hope he is put of his misery soon..

Dont want to see fans turning really badly against a club legend...

I think we can still claim top 4 from here with the right manager..

Howe we can claim for Christ SAKE?

If you can't get a winning team out of that squad you shouldn't be in management, it's that simple. 

Leicester have more drove and determination and that's simply not good enough. 

No manager got this amount of time to make us into a team, its time to call it a day and try to salvage something from the season. The squad has quality they just need coached.

It's not because were floundering around the mid-table teams or flirting with relegation its just the horrid football that we have been playing for weeks now with no end in sight.  There is nothing in midfield and once again the back is looking shaky when under pressure.....

I'm not saying my opinion on Frank one way or the other but sometimes you need to question the sheer amount of players out of form.

People blame and label Werner and Havertz as flops but  you just have to look at the rest of squad to know everyone is dire

Only good thing about that half was the half time whistle giving me permission to get another beer

You could go at any point of the match and likely not miss anything good from us..

‘Some of our results of late have been indifferent and that’s not a direct thing on Kurt, but I felt that there were some changes that could be made. Tony is a personality within the group, and it’s a moment where we need personalities to get a result.’

But now we're missing him as a goal scoring threat and I think Zouma is a better defender anyways. Another bizarre one from Lamps..

 

Just want to quote this from Lampard and now it’s cost us. He doesn’t make changes for any actual reason so why the f**k does he keep doing it. Same with Reece starting over Dave for the first time in a month. That’s just bad coaching and there’s no excuse in a game this tough and at this point of the season.

How much time exactly? 

At least another season. Took Fergie 4 years to win something with Utd.

Surely they must be bored of talking about that by now?

Pundits will never get bored of pissing all over chelsea,

I wish Havertz would just f*ck off. He didn’t even try.

If Anyone Can Lift Their Head Up And See Havertz In Space Between The Midfield And Defense That Would Be Good

Unfortunately all we practice is crossing

How long is long enough? 

I think our entire squad must have tested false negative for Covid all season ... there is just no energy or commitment. They HAVE to all be desperately ill surely LOL

Lampard should stay till the end of the season regardless of the results...I doubt any coach would be able to get a Top 4 this season so no point chaning now for some interim coach.  Lampard should just finish it.

I want lampard sacked but there is no quality replacement on the market. 

Schevchenko until end of season then go and get Rodgers or Nagelsman

Two easy goals for Leicester, we're looking awful. The only positive is Mount, others already lost the game.

Had so many hopes for tonight, but Leicester got us. Disappointed.

I had doubts when I saw the midfield. Those three don’t work in a 433. At this point I don’t know what to say. Sacking frank seems like the easy option but I don’t know what manager is out there to take us on an interim basis.

I don’t get this let’s give him time to build a squad! Why? It’s not the Chelsea way. Get a coach in who knows how to defend and build from there.  I don’t blame Frank I blame the fact he has a coaching staff that’s out of their depth at this level. Time for the next chapter

Ah the good old end of the 80s.

Not like footballs evolved or that...

Would you stick with AVB for 4 years to see if he can turn it around? Avram Grant? Roy Hodgson? The manager has to be the right one, or you are just wasting everyones time.

If we get one you never know. We have only tried it once and should of had a penalty. 
I really don’t mind playing this bad if they at least tried. But they don’t seem to be putting any effort it

has he lost the players ? I honestly don’t think so but there confidence is zero and the only way to get out is hard work or a bit of luck
