Chelsea interim boss Calum McFarlane on a 'whirlwind' 24...

Chelsea interim manager Calum McFarlane says it has been a "crazy" 24 hours since replacing Enzo Maresca at Stamford Bridge.

I may be wrong, but I'm not sure we've ever lost a game when we've had an interim in charge ?

Ray Wilkins, Steve Holland, Bruno Salter .... have there been any others who have presided over a single game ?

On that note, let's kick the next chapter off with some positivity ... this is going to be a 2-1 Chelsea win LOL.

A tactical masterclass from Calum McFarlane.

Goals from Cole Palmer and ... Liam Delap 😎

Hmm.

I want us to lose this game.

A win will be bittersweet at best.

Even if we do I am not convinced the title race will be over. Arsenal will take some beating but a lot may come down to their games against the likes of City, Liverpool etc.

Race or no race Arsenal look inevitable

At the moment they do. But a few weeks ago, they were wobbling and looked like they might even get passed by City before the end of the year. Things can change quickly. Anyway whatever happens there we need to focus on our form and hope that whoever is in charge in the weeks ahead can restore some winning form.

At the Etihad. No Caicedo.

Team is Rudderless, Marescas back room staff remain in place is my understanding but some mate of a SD did the presser, why watch ? and will be in the dugout as interim just to keep it warm for LR. So can we expect inverted full backs, out of position Reece, same tactics?

The chances of a positive outcome are slim considering City’s current streak…..let’s see what 🥶 the other players can come up with !

Match Day!

Come On Chelsea!!

Write this one off as a free hit. After this 7 of our next 9 games are London Derbies. Yay!

Today Chelsea, our Chelsea, needs us.

As long as the supporters sing, Chelsea will exist.

So, regardless of everything, COME ON CHELS! 💙

Today i think you will see how many of the players have had enough , i expect a battering at least 5-0 (and i hate to say it but the bigger the better), the only way thes cun ts in charge leave, is if we finish outside of the European places, they need european football, they have said that they dont care about the Arsenal semi final, well it looks like the supporters agree, because up until yesterday they are struggling to sell the tickets..anyway, i expect the puppet in the dugout wont have picked the team, wont have anything to do with tactics or when and who the subs are, Willy will have a phone and everything will be done via the SD'S

Re the semifinal v Arsenal. I've just checked and it's still only open to STH and the various Members. Be nice if it went general sale so that folk like me who never get the chance to get to the Bridge can have the opportunity. I noticed the Bournemouth game was about 3000 short of capacity as well

No manager no chance I don't think

Never been more disinterested in a Chelsea game in my life, and I've wanted Maresca gone for a year. I don't see any hope going forward with these owners.

I agree they have sucked the life out of club. The prospect of one of their other operatives relocating from another site does'nt fill me with glee.

Bringing in a product development manager is fine in industry but hardly appropriate in football.

The trouble is im a creature of habit and i will be on the edge of my seat before KO. Up the Chels!

will be interesting to see the changes when an interim takes over, to see his frustrations at what the old gaffer was doing.
