I'd love to hear from anyone who still thinks we shouldn't play Silva.  We have bugger all composure at the back without him.

But didn't you hear? he's the reason why it's played so slowly out of the back. Forget that he can win a header, tackle, position himself well and makes these young players look older than him, playing out of the back isn't quick enough so he should be dropped /s

Awful result that, even more so given the circumstances. 

If you cant limit 10 man burnley to under 2 goals, then there is some serious issues. 

Not even mad anymore, 11th for a reason. Only 8 more to go. The season will completely dir out over the next few games, and we will end up mid table where we have been ever since these owners came in. 

Pochettino should make the squad watch the nauseating expression on Burnley's assistant manager's face over and over again, Clockwork Orange-style. Craig Bellamy should never be permitted to be that happy.

A taste of the Championship today. Heaven help us if we got a big points deduction 

Could be a blessing in disguise, may force the yankee w**ks to sell the club.

The only thing giving me some pleasure is knowing that Clearlake will lose a hell of a lot of money on us

Lost for words how far we’ve regressed. Still 11 individuals , 4 defenders who can’t defend, 4 attackers who can’t score and especially one CF who’d be better off being injured rather than keep embarrassing himself week after week.  

Embarassing we cant beat a 19th place team at home… with ten men.

F*ck off Poch get out of here.

Counterintuitive as it sounds, the sending off is just about the worst thing that could’ve happened. This team cannot break through a low block.

I’m sick of watching this iteration of Chelsea. Our squad has no spirit, no leaders and, worst of all, are a bunch of losers.

We were 1 nil up though. We didnt even need to breakdown a block. Just had to defend competently for 45 minutes!

No energy anymore with this team.

But, but its part of the process, no booing allowed, all happy clappy what ever the f**k happens.

And they walk around the pitch with an arrogance as if they've won it all. Mediocre players and a mediocre coach is just a reflection of our owners muddled thinking. 

That pisses me off too. Who do they even think they are? They've won nothing to earn any of that arrogance. I watch Jackson and the prat thinks he can try and be clever with his touches, but he always f**ks it up. 

These players haven't been able to lift the club above mid table all season. They get humbled time and time again but never learn from it. We need a strong coach to coach this out of them, not Pochettino who just wants to be everybody's friend.

The definition of insanity is ……

Club is permanently stuck in that paradigm !

Just shoot me now.

There actually was no evidence or form to predict 3 points. We're inconsistent at best and usually somehow stumble across the finish line when we do win.

Sterling smiling as he misses another sitter. Still collecting that 300k. 

But the useless prat stirling minces around, caring only about his £350,000 he gets for his part in this sh*t show.

As much as I do not rate Poch - and he clearly cannot set up a team to defend crosses - I struggle to put this all on him.

- The players created so many chances. So many. Sterling, Mudryk, Gallagher, Gusto and Jackson should all have done better. Sterlings was easier to score than miss.

- We should have had a penalty when the Disasi goal was disallowed. If the goal is ruled out (which it was correctly), then it has to be a pen for the fact that the defender was pulling disasi with a handful of his shirt. The commentators said nothing about it. So biased.

- Petrovic with an absolute howler.

 

 

We know this team can play much better. We have seen it on few occasions this season, but why most of the games are low quality. Is that the coach?the players? both? What can give us optimism for the next season if all stays like this? No pre-season will fix any of these problem to be any better next season.

True that, much better seeing Disasi and Badiashile zipping it out at pace, 60 yards ahead of them and, 30 yards ahead of..well anyone

But our XG says we should be FIFA World Cup winners, so no worries!!

Yah mistake by Petrovic cost us the 3 points... I liked there goalie Muric - wouldn't have known he was injured too!

And we didn't take our chances... we had so many chances - bit silly to keep blaming Pooch and/or Todd.

What's annoying as well is going in to the United game we'll hear from the pundits about how we're unbeaten in however many games and how things are looking better for us, completely ignoring every single performance has been a struggle against absolute dross.

A lot of bad luck on the night Jim, but I can't make too many excuses for this, our defending is atrocious and the way momentum shifts in this team just screams immaturity.

It'll be interesting to see which version of our sh*tshow we'll put up against Utd.

 :-) 

Should have won that at a canter but far too wasteful in front of goal. We had 32 shots and 13 on target today ... and then our keeper throws in a howler for good measure. 

Onwards and upwards !
