    So glad we turned down players like Madisson because they‘re 26 but signed 291 17 year olds that are good but clearly not ready

      The 17 year olds aren’t even the issue that much. If you’d just taken the money you spent on Disasi, Badiashile, Jackson, and Madueke you could have got Maddison and Szoboszlai and still had change.

        Even just try and spent 1bn on a first XI, its actually not easy. Szobo, Maddisn, Rice midfield. Leao, Oshimen, Kubo attack. Thats still only like 500m.

    I’m tired of this team. Just when you think things are turning around, they drop this absolute stinker. I’d love to say I’m done supporting them but I sure as hell will be there next week. Fuck you Chelsea, sincerely.

    Brentford fully deserved the win. PL should just fuck Chelsea off and give their spot to a better team like Wednesday. Give someone like them a fraction of what Chelsea have and they’d be a solid PL side.

    I would laugh at Chelsea right now, but I need them to take points off of Spurs and City.

    Get your shit together.

      Liverpool needing someone to take points off us is wild, I’m still adjusting to it

      They will. Chelsea are good against teams that try to play, they’re shit against teams that sit 10 behind the ball.

      I wonder that too lol. Although Liverpool players were still getting used to each other so we looked pretty sloppy

    Tell me now how much does Chelsea need to fix their problems? Or tell me who are the players Chelsea need to fix their problems?
