agree with this btw - the 2nd yellow could have been a straight red imo, and there were other chelsea challenges that looked like there was a lead with an elbow. The volume of red and yellow cards they have is by design and culture.

it's the second time he's rec'd a pass from a GK, and tried to turn a midfielder and been caught in possession, resulting in a goal against. The concern for me is he hasn't learned from his earlier error.

on sunday it was clear the players were worried about conceding first, as they knew it could/would get toxic. I do feel that though the performances have been poor, the players have not lacked effort. They're being hamstrung by poor tactics, poor selection decisions, and poor squad additions...

I also thought Mosquera had a decent outing last night. Still no idea whet the formation was at any point btw - never sure if it was 3, 4, 5 or even 6 at the back. Horrible flashbacks of O'neil trying to be too clever.

Agree with all of this. I do hope that the fans can target the owners/manager regarding the dis-satisfaction, rather than the players, because that is where the issues stem from.

Doubt it personally. Chelsea need to correct their run, & this game is ideal for them.

The players saturday weren't having arguments with the south bank. To be honest, I do have a lot of respect for them for trying to dissolve the anger that was there, and saying to the fans "we need you". It must have been fucking hard to do, to take harsh comments from a crowd of people. Strand...

shit typo by me there - I meant the fulham game away.

boxing day may end up with only 1 PL fixture owing to tv.

This is good news, however the problem will be so many cars on the road with headlights that are problematic for other road users for such a lengthy period of time, as I can't see how they can address the issue of existing cars, unless adaptations are mandated...

they're also potentially not taking the full burnley allocation. How many red flags do fosun need?

he's something unrepeatable, for sure... suggesting him would enable paddington mode for most posters.

Apparently there is scientific research that shows that traversing through a doorway causes us to forget. It's something to do with the change in perception/environment, so the whole walking into a room and forgetting the reason we walked in there is phenomenally common! Fair fucking play for...

on Kuenssberg this morning, streeting was damnin of pochins statements. chris phelp tried to avoid criticising her and Kuenssberg pointedly said to him he'd had 4 opportunities to condemn her statements as racist and decided not to agree. The entire panel were overwhelmingly critical of phelps...

They at least tried, and seemed to be the only partnership we had. They looked to move forwards, & also covered each others roles. Neither are the finished article. Both have much to improve in their games but that left hand side was the only bright spark I've seen the past 2 weeks. & Vitor...
