All the money we've spent , and we're like a relegation threatened side hanging on and hoping to pick up points against lower teams maybe .

Different manager same news

1. Acheampong again showing it is criminal that he isn't first choice

2. Enzo again sod all ability to influence a game.

3. Pedro, Palmer and Estevao contributing nothing but in fairness utterly starved of any credible possession by how weak our midfield is.

4. James running round like a headless chicken to cover his role and Enzo's

this game was always a write off, I’m just thoroughly enjoying the experience of no Maresca and watching football without any expectations and that bald idiot to let me down. UTC

Executed whomevers game plan very well (drop deep into 2 defensive lines play for a 0-0 with the long shot of a breakaway goal then defend , defend , defend ) until they scored. Playing the 2nd half in the same fashion will invite them on and they will likely profit more.

I’d take 1-0 right now !

Team still stinks of Maresca

You do realise that like today the manager is told who to play ? Or have you not sussed that yet mate

A. Santos on for Enzo.

I'm off, I'll just keep up with how things are going on here.

The majority of them are barely even half interested, just going through the motions. It's going exactly how I expected and I can't be asked to wait around for the inevitable routine City win.

Yeah these Johnny come latleys I tell you...

I wasn't disappointed when Maresca left, but no doubt we would have been better than this, his shortcomings were against the lower opposition. We have been dreadful this game.

I think I'd take off Neto and Joao Pedro and bring Santos and Delap on.

Go 4-3-2-1 with Estevao and Palmer as the two in free roles. Hopefully more out balls will stick with Delap than Joao Pedro.

Badders is the WORST he’s a fecking joke

"Badders" sounds way too affectionate, even with the "bad" part

At least we're half way through this. Hurry up and get it over with so we can appoint the Strasbourg nerd and start tanking down the table.

We should move Josh into the middle. Take Badiashile off. Move Reece to RB, and Andrey Santos into MF.

Highlight of that half was our fans loudly chanting "Roman Abramovich"

I mean almost every single chelsea fan wants this to happen, but it wont.

Agreed. Only downside to it being Enzo stays on

This performance is ok for a bottom half club let alone one that spent 2.5+ billion

Give us time, we could be both of those

Get Clown Boehly and that oily leather wigged motherf**ker Eghbali out. Killing the club.

Wow - just watching Amorim interview.

He's gone full Maresca LOL

"I came here to be the manager, not the coach!" Fiesty stuff .. obviously wants his P45 as well !

Needs more vitriol towards the board to be honest. Easy for me to say though when I'm not standing in -1 degrees weather watching this sh*te.

Conceded from the left the moment Neto moves over there. Very interesting and noted.

Man United are also owned by a similar consortium. They will ultimately be a similar position.
