The commentators keeping going on like a striker will be the thing that fixes us, but do they think the striker will score ALL of the goals? Even if we got a 30 goals a season striker, we will still need the others to get some goals too. We need a f**king football team, not individuals.

I have said this last weekend. Look at Arsenal's midfield who many goals they have scored.

I think we’ve looked even less likely to score after the “attacking” substitutions.

Kante needs to cloned and play across the front three.

Am I the only one who is not that disappointed ? 
Ok it’s not great compared to recent years standards but we played well at times 

deep breath and go again, some teams didn’t make it this far in the champions league 

I'm not disappointed in this one performance, I'm disappointed that this lot refuse to bring the same energy and determination into every game. We'll go away from this and these same players will play the most unwatchable sh*te in the next league game.

Ziyech, Aubameyang, Mendy... 

2 games, zero goals.

Does Mudryk miss our first Conference League group game in 2026, now? I think his suspension carries over.

I genuinely think it's just a manager problem.  We probably wouldn't have got top 4 this year under Tuchel, but we certainly wouldn't have been embarrassed like this

I honestly hope you’re right. I think our problems are much bigger. We are still at the foothills of a major crisis that’s bigger than Chelsea and will be the stuff of history. This whole thing is going to implode.
 

Wow - that does sound quite dramatic but I’ll post anyway and I have had a few drinks 😂

you missed 8...

We need a reality check and it’s proper good we are out of this as this whole club needs a revamp. We need a massive restructure in the summer

Nonsense.

This is by FAR as bad as anything I've seen in my lifetime. Jose wasn't even close to this disaster

 

We were literally one point of the drop when Mou was sacked.

As sh*t as this season has been we've not got close to that.

Yes, but they still always play with a central forward. Usually Jesus, but when he was out injured Nketiah played that position. We need that player.

Nah fam he'll probably be on loan at Vitesse by then... 

First time losing 4 games in a row since 1993, damn.

Big big rebuild, being free of any euro competitions next year will help for the reset …. Tonight though feels like the proper end of the Abramovich era

Bayern, under Tuchel, were eliminated in their domestic Cup and if it wasn't for their keeper, they would have been blown away 7-0 against City in the first leg. 

We lost 2-0 twice against the champs and kepa really didn't have much work. Courtois has made more key saves than Kepa in these two games. This isn't a manager problem. 

Without stating the obvious, looking at our remaining league fixtures I genuinely can't see where a next win is coming from. Something has gone seriously wrong within the club since Roman was forced out. Dreadful situation.

Well also they have played the same XI in a working, balanced system all season (with individuals replaced by like-for-like analogues).

Weird thing to say when Boehly`s non-sense is the reason we are in this mess. What does Abramovich have to do with it?

The more we spend the worse we get. 

The problem is we have spent shed loads of money on players that apparently have great potential.  What they like is any elite level experience now. So when you get into a tie like this when you are dealing in fractions these players have no experience and are easily shown up.

Example. Fofana. A good player and a massive prospect if he stays fit. But tonight he has been outclassed, looks gassed and on the ball has had virtually no quality at all.

Last champions league match for a while I reckon. 

0-2 defeat probably the best this team was ever capable of.

I think though that a competent striker can pull defenders out of position and create space and opportunity for others to score. We haven't anyone that makes a defence think twice, there's no movement in out front 2/3, our forward players are often static when midfielders are trying to create something   

Not really much left to say. Actually played okay, but we are so poor in front on goal, even when we do play okay, it doesnt result in anything. 

Deflated beyond belief with this club at the moment. 

Season over. It is very hard to thank for anything. It is just over. This sh*t show with new owners is basically unheard of. Absolute circus with no positives really....
