Chelsea 3 Wolves 0 Verdict

[Wilf Wolf]

Paying the price for years of abysmal recruitment. It’s quite incredible how many sub-standard players we’ve signed for hefty fees.

We wouldn’t get half of what we’ve paid for Johnstone, Tchatchoua, Wolfe, Santi Bueno, Djiga, Agbadou, Hwang, Munetsi, Fer Lopez, Arias and Bellegarde. And by having to play alongside that lot the values of André and Gomes are dropping by the week.

We can change the manager but nobody’s making a silk purse out of this lot. In years to come we’ll be seen as the classic example of how selling your best players season after season and having no plan of how to replace them only ends one way.

Not much else to say really. I still hope Agbadou, FerLo and Wolfe might be ok. The rest I could not care less - they are landfill footballers.

FerLo might well be another Vitinha or Trincao but he’s clearly miles short of PL standard at the moment. We needed players who could step straight into the team and perform at a decent PL, not another project that will need at least two seasons to bear fruit.

 

[Celtiña]

Wif Wolf.

Im not sure, Mané dont played any game, and for me look good player, dont understand because he no played in the league.

Same Wolfe, he scored 2 goals and made a great game and next, play H. Bueno.

i think all are bad lazy coach: ONeil, V.Pereira and this Collins...

If one tactic dont work change the tactic.... but they use all time full defensive tactics, and many player are with 0 motivation to play

Munetsi are playing all time on ofense, and what are the number score/goals? He not is bad player, but are playing all time in the worn position.

Need changes, tactics, more ofensive, and use more players...

I don't disagree at all.

This is the big problem with the 'regroup in the championship' consolation prize. There is fuck all resale vale in most of this squad. They just can't play football, we'll be stuck with them, at best sending them out on endless, heavily subsidised loans until they're out of contract.

We've got easily ten players that wouldn't even be taken for nothing, and they'll be shit in the Championship. It's an outrageous display of incompetence.

 

[Tredman]

The entirety of the defence today should never play another game for us ever again.

 

[Deutsch Wolf]

Not in the game. Never in the game. We sort of defended ok in the first half but that's as much down to how Maresca has an incredibly talented attacking unit underperforming. 1-0 and game over.

Pretty sure our record winless league run is in the mid 80s. As in the mid 1980s, not that we went 80+ games without a win (although you never know). We could beat it. How are we going to win a game, how are we even planning to score a goal other than the ball randomly breaking to us in the box?

Dismal stuff.

Johnstone: Made some routine saves in the first half which is better than his direct competitor who makes no saves. But he isn't very good. There are 10+ keepers in the Championship who are comfortably better and none of them cost £10m when they were already past 30.

Tchatchoua: Can't really defend, can't really attack, can't link play like a modern full back should. In fact I'm told he's really fast but I'm not sure he is! Looks quite a lot slower than Semedo to me.

S Bueno: Embarrassingly slow. I'm not even messing when I say I'd outpace him. I'm 45 soon.

Toti: Nice "after you, Claude" moment with Johnstone on the opener. A trier, but not good enough.

H Bueno: Do you reckon he'll have stopped a cross before he turns 30? Appalling defender and while he gets forward, nothing ever comes of it. A left sided Zubar in that respect.

André/J Gomes/Krejci: Lumping them altogether as they were all there purely to provide a wall in front of our shitty defence. Which they did for a bit and then they didn't, and they offer nothing in an attacking sense.

Bellegarde: Please go away. You don't score, you don't create, you don't defend, what actually are you?

Hwang: A very poor footballer who had a weird purple patch and our idiot chairman will wait for that to repeat itself (it won't) until his contract eventually expires.

Strand Larsen: Crap, as he has been all season. Why is Tolu getting NO minutes when he plays like that FFS?

I have no idea when or how this changes.

 

[EnglishBob]

...Johnstone, Tchatchoua, Wolfe, Santi Bueno, Djiga, Agbadou, Hwang, Munetsi, Fer Lopez, Arias and Bellegarde...

... Arokodare, Munetsi, the other Bueno, Hoever ... this list goes on and on.

We have perhaps three players who could maybe do a job and we are dismal. The Sky producers must've been embarrassed to show that game. And we won't win the next two either, before a big wooden spoon match in December.

If Fosun wanted to gamble they’d have been better off sticking the money on a random horse in the 2:30 at Newmarket! It’s quite incredible how many woeful players have been signed.

And the others are working good?

Ferlo only have 185 mins, and some games are running box-to-box, no one made it, and he is ofensive MF.

Its crazy put one MF defensive like Muntesi in ofense, and put one ofensive MF like FerLo on defense.

FerLo in 185 have 1 assist, more of all MFs on 500 mins. And the team need assist. if no assist no score, that is the simple rule of this game.

 

[Jinky]

There are league 2 clubs that would have given Chelsea a better challenge tonight.

Yes, we’re in the shit. Nothing is going right. I’m sure the players confidence is at an all time low and Chelsea away isn’t exactly easy. But you simply cannot go into a match with the single intention of defending your area for 90 minutes and hoping to keep it 0-0. Offered absolutely nothing offensively (0 shots on target).

We are an embarrassment. And no chance we get past that record low points tally set by Derby.

The other issue is our best players (Gomes, Andre & Krejci) are all in areas where they won’t impact us in the important areas of the field I.e. scoring goals - and we’re not keeping clean sheets using Krejci in defence so he’s completely wasted there. We have sold every player that can win a match or do something magic. We’re done. Fucking well done Fosun and well done Jeff. Look at what you had.

 

[Tredman]

I remember when Doc's sister used to post on here, does FerLo have a sister too?

I included Munetsi, excluded H Bueno as we didn’t pay much for him. Hoever is definitely another, luckily I’d managed to forget about him .

My english not is good but simple resume, only assist this players on 11 games.

 

[jd1981]

This season will be like a tombstone we have to carry round our necks for years to come.
We have 3 players you’d say yep they’re PL quality. Andre, J Gomes and Krejci the rest are championship/league 1 standard.
Having said that they aren’t creative game changers.
That defence I mean seriously all of them hopeless in their own ways. Just look at how passive they all are on each goal.
JSL is dining out on the fact that he had Cunha and RAN creating opportunities for him last season.
That forward line looked league 1 level, all proven by the amount of times we actually broke on the counter and it resulted in nothing.
JRB and Hwang in league 1 sides wouldn’t stand out they’d just slot in.
The fact that H Bueno has got so much game time is atrocious, terrible RB, doesn’t tackle or stop a cross and offers nowhere near enough in a forwards sense.
There’s nothing for Rob Edwards to work with.
I don’t see a win it’ll have to come by fluke so that in itself tells you just how low our points total will be.
These current custodians are completely humiliating the name of this club.

 

[Jinky]

75 years since a team with 2 points after 11 games stayed up. Stoke City. No one else since. That’s what we need to do. With this squad and Rob Edwards in charge.

Just pop the ‘R’ next to us now.

 

[Lupo]

Shocking, embarrassing, disgraceful

How has Wolfe not played a minute since his brace against Chelsea in the cup and Tolu played a few minutes against Fulham and nothing tonight but Hwang played again and JSL the full game

I can't remember ever feeling as pessimistic about Wolves as I do now, we will blow Derby's record out of the water, for an established Premier League side that is unforgivable
