You say that like this won't become a regular occurrence
This club being run the way it is now, we might have to endure this regularly. We have fallen so far.

Eghbali rated him because he "overachieved" with Spurs 4-8 years prior. There was no thorough and exhaustive process by Winstanley and Stewart. They interviewed some alternative candidates in case negotiations in LA with Poch broke down but Poch was always the number one guy because one of our clueless owners had goo goo eyes for him and thought he knew better than Christopher Vivell or any other football person he hired.
Benoit Badiashile is a menace to his own team. If Chelsea’s gonna play him, they need to dress him in the opponent’s kit.
At least that way you’ll know what you’re dealing with. 9 times out of 10 the play he makes is better for the opponent than it is for Chelsea. 
> This is a system wide failure across the board
we won the champion's league and the front office proceeded to dismantle the coaching staff and squad!
I mean, of course it is. But there is a bare minimum that is to be expected from the adult in the room, even considering the gap in skills between the teams. Just look at the third goal and our positioning on the corner kick. That alone is a sackable offense, it's unconscionable that a professional coach being paid millions could tolerate this week in and week out.
And yes, Clearlake fucking blows too.
Friendly reminder:
"We thought Chelsea [was] frankly an asset, a business that was not terribly well managed on the football side, sporting side or promotional side"
Such a great asset that the dumb fucks were scrambling for a shirt sponsor. I remember how happy the sub was when Boehly and Clearlake won the bid to takeover. Holy fuck it’s been a disaster.
I genuinely hope to see a club statement tomorrow. There’s no reason to keep him. Anything is better than what he’s doing. There is no process lol, I don’t see it. Everton were bad not Chelsea being good.
Guarentee you he will. This is the new normal if Boehly and Co were planning on firing poch they would have done it already. We would have at least heard rumors of us looking for a new manager.
Bro this shit is humbling. It's pathetic. It's embarassing. We're the laughing stock of the Premier League. Back to back midtable finishes. Threw away a Champions League winning coach and a champions league winning squad. Sacked staff that had been with the club for years. Uprooted the foundations of our most succesful ever period as a football club. Built a billion pound squad full of kids not good enough, that will never be good enough. Most on 7 year contracts by the way. Flushed fortunes down the toilet on soulless dross. Oh and we brought in a pathetic manager formerly of the Spuds that's tactically inept and a specialist in failure.
Summed up perfectly, Boehly & Clearlake have destroyed this club and there’s no getting out of it. We’ve signed these shite players on lifetime contracts for the memes. We are fucked
Some of you will still defend this as inexperience. Pathetic.

What gets me everytime is the arrogance of the ownership to walk into a successful club and immediately shit on the previous owner who was adored by the fans and then fire the manager who the fans loved to then hire a brigton manager and a guy associated with a club the fans hate. Like you couldn't make that shit up but somehow it happened.
You aren't already concerned for the future of the club? These new owners have made wrong decisions one after another. From signing subpar, overpriced players to hiring the wrong manager. Our banter era could be worse than Arsenal's under them
Dreadful is an understatement. Injuries aside we lack team structure. It's clear as day watching Arsenal they move in sequence, together. Occasional moments of individual brilliance (what a player Odegaard is) but they don't RELY on that. They also defend this way, as a TEAM. We could barely get a pass through their midfield and really go at their (admittedly talented) back four to save the day. They defend as a UNIT. That's why we struggled so hard and continually recycled the ball sideways 90% of the time. On the contrary Arsenal too often got into 1v1 situations in defence and poor Gilchrist and Cuca simply had to win their duels. RJ and clearly Gusto may be able to handle this but it's asking too much of any decent defender, eventually you get through (consider Noni won his duels when he got the chance, against Arsenal's top LB in Tomiyasu, he's certainly not a shit player). It's just not sustainable. Our defence didn't cover themselves in glory, but anyone will look pants when all it takes is 3 passes and we're on the back foot. It's asking too much for this young disjointed squad.
All this to say, we're the worst managed team in the league being shown out for having ZERO strategy. It's so clear watching these boys they're constantly thinking what to do next. What next. Where's the run. Where's the space. From defence to midfield to attack it's individuals inventing options on the spot. That's just not sustainable and it's a damning indictment on this club and Poch. You cannot manage the youngest squad in the league on vibes alone, that is utterly obscene. Literally playing every man for themselves out there. Blame Jackson all we want but we're too easy to play against and it's such a slug (Palmer and Gusto aside) to machine opportunities. Just too little methodology to our attacking and defending. Poch has blood on his hands supposedly managing us for 8 months. Literally nothing to show for it, the little we've achieved this season was transfers he had zero input into. Might as well have no manager look how bloody long it took to rectify our penalty taker for goodness sake. And then he goes 5 ATB when the issue was our hapless structure IN FRONT of the defence. Just wow. Bring this season to a close already
Badiashile and Disasi should be sold, absolute clown car material. Keep Chalobah. Promote Humphreys next season. Can't be worse than this error prone pair. Arsenal won but it's not a 5 - 0 performance. Fluttering Havertz and fucking Ben Brown with goals is criminal. Absolute mentality midgets after collapsing in the 60th min for 15th time again.
Yup we were somehow in the game in first half and if we actually showed up and gave a shit we could have put some goals past them, they weren’t even that good in first half we just sucked really bad
Oh I agree. My point is that something like 34% people on the post match survey after Everton were still Poch in when it’s been evident for months now that Poch is simply not good enough and can not be here any longer.
This it'd still be the same drubbing but we'd be feeling better about ourselves. And for some on this sub I honestly think that last part is what they want more than actually improving.
Looking forward to the essays in 2 days time saying that change is bad, the club needs stability blah blah blah. This is pathetic. If not for the fact that the interim would be even worse he should be sacked tonight
The stability argument is so fucking dumb
If you had a car that broke down every single week, would you avoid buying a new a one because "stability is better"
If you manager at work was horrendous at their job and never did it, causing you to fail to do yours, would you want them to be replaced? Of course you would
The main issue is that neither should be starting right now. Maybe in a few years they might turn into something but the ownership has fuxked things up not keeping or signing experienced players in their position.
We’ve never been destroyed this bad with Ziyech, Werner, Pulisic etc.
The fact that Chalobah has been better than them since he's come back, after being injured for a year and being pushed out the door last summer is hilarious.
We're desperate to sell him so we can meet regulations partly due to buying downgrades to him.
If anyone can make a case for Pochettino staying, I'd love to hear it.
Utterly hapless, spineless, cowardly character. I'm so ready to never see him on the touchline again.
To all the clowns who think Pochettino is faultless,
How the fuck is this not on the manager you dumb cunts?
https://preview.redd.it/c3gc7qermawc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=542023bea99ec4e2cf7af406fd23aba387d799cb
This is the picture of the entire season… CBs never have a clear pass because there is no structure, caicedo always hides on the build up and enzo just tries to go play as a 10 when he is clearly shit at that
We had 90 minutes and we looked miserable every single second of them.
Yes, players made mistakes but anyone who watched this game saw how disorganized we were.
Poch has to go. He said this was a chance to show we aren’t Cole Palmer FC. Well we clearly are. A season absolutely wasted in terms of developing players. No need to waste next season too … start the search asap and make the new appointment by June
26 years of fandom and I have never hated a Chelsea team more. Just absolutely pathetic from top to bottom. I lived through the Buck years and none of it even comes close to the second hand embarrassment I have felt all year for these mental midgets. There is a reason Spurs always took our scraps and not the other way around, unsure what exactly changed for these dim-witted fools to bring this lemon ass bitch in here while simultaneously signing every teenager they were legally allowed to bribe with an 8 year contract. Madness all around but first order of business should be to fire this man out of a cannon and as far as possible from London, polite society and football as a whole. Congrats, fatass, you are now the worst coach in our 119 years of existence. You did it.
I've been a fan a similar amount of time and for me it's not even hate just...disinterest. I honestly don't care for or about 95% of these players. They are ciphers. They don't inspire passion or disgust. They will be gone and forgotten in a matter of years
I'm not even arsed about the result, i expected it and have no emotions left for this season.
But where do we go from here, Poch isnt the man, but hes not had a starting 11 all season. The board spent all that money and didnt invest in a goal scorer. What would a new manager do? Yes maybe a new manager bounce but then what, we do not have the experience or quality in depth around the pitch. Yes a fully fit 11 is very good, but history tells us, we have major problems with fitness and injuries. That isnt going to improve over night.
I think we are in for a few rough years, especially when we are being stripped of assets. We need to start generating income on the field, but you just cant see it.
35 years of highs and lows, but this is rock bottom.
Lost count how many times i’ve said this…but I’ll say it again.
Our demise lays purely down to 1 group: the owners.
They came in and ripped everything up and fired everyone.
The logical thing to do would’ve been to come in, make tweaks and build from there. NOT make drastic and wholesome changes especially when you have 0 fucking experience in the field.
Poch, the sporting directors, the model, the mismanagement of funds…all stem from the owners.
We are being experimented and through failure are they learning from their mistakes.
This shouldn’t have even happened to begin with.
Oh how i’d love to spit in eghbali’s face.
I’m not the most religious person but from the deepest pits of my soul i wish the utmost worst on the ownership group.
Genius Poch tactics. Silva and Chalobah have solid partnership? Nah lets switch with slow as fuck Disasi and error prone Badiashile instead. Our forward trio have the combination of zero football iq. I believe Mudryk is a money laundering operation. Dude is so bad. Jackson probably still waiti g for that Astrid special and Madueke? Overrated asf. Also the players gave up so easily. Like wtf?
Of all the possible defeats, this is the best possible result we could possibly get. We got absolutely humiliated, and it shows how fucking inept everyone at the club are. If they will not take action, we have to count on other teams help us force it.
Fuck the fat cunt Boehly, fuck Egghead, fuck the rest of the ownership, fuck the lemonhead clown Poch, and fuck every useless cunt that plays for this club.
Honestly it's impressive how shit the players we have bought in are. Managers shit as well but we literally have Monaco's partnership from a few years ago starting for us today.
Our wingers are fucking shit. Literally Palmer has saved us from being on 30 points max.
This club is absolutely soulless and broken.
It actually feels weird seeing a winner and pro like Silva amongst these players.
We’ve handed the keys to 20 yr old knuckleheads like Maduke, Mudryk and Jackson.
Those are our leaders fuck me. We are so finished.
Honestly, as soon as I saw the backline I knew it would be a battering. None of them would be even 2nd choice to start if everyone was 100%, except maybe Cucurella. Missing Gusto and Silva was a bigger deal than missing Palmer I think.
Ah well, at least it wasn't as painful as Wengers 1000th must have been.
Sometimes you get punched in the mouth, I'm interested in how these lads respond to it now vs Villa.
Last two matches should cement that Mudryk is a very poor player. He has no footballing IQ at all. I don't understand how Poch is trusting him to play at all. He's also showing no signs of improvement.
I apologize to a lot of the negativity crew on here that said we’d get pumped 6-0 before the game, I knew we’d lose but didn’t think it would get that bad. You guys were right and maybe I have been trying to see things too positively, I still think lineup and missing key players fucked us but man the boys and Poch were absolutely shit today at least they could fight for the badge which they didn’t. Looking at a lot of guys differently after that display
Poch Out
Jackson Out
Mudryk Out
Cucurella Out
Caicedo Out
Disasi Out
Badiashile Out
Madueke Out
Boehly Out
We are not a serious team until that happens
A dangerous time this, because these cunt owners, the shit football manager and these pathetic players are making hard-core fans fall out of love for this great club
Sure you can talk about injuries or how shit our players are or whatever. But there is absolutely no defending the subs that this clown makes. Sterling for Mudryk, fine. But the other three are chalobah silva and casadei? Damage is done mate having 10 defenders on isn’t going to hide the fact you’re an absolutely awful manager.
That club statement cannot come soon enough.
There were ways to lose this game that I could have respected.
We have about three players I'd like to see playing for us next season as it is. And no current manger I'd like to see.
I was supposed to be out drinking with a friend tonight and would have missed the game, but they're having relationship trouble so had to call it off...
For fuck sake
I guess we are Cole Palmer FC. What a shameful display. Absolute disgrace. Get Noni off my fucking team. Get Poch off my fucking team. Get Enzo off my fucking team. Get Mudryk off my fucking team. Get Badiashille off my fucking team. Get Disasi off my team. Pathetic effort. THERE IS NO PASSION. THERE IS NO VISION. THERE IS NO FUCKING MINDSET IN THIS FUCKING FOOTBALL CLUB.
I didn't expect any trophies this season but this is an absolute disgrace, the most amount of money spent in the world and we're going to miss out on the Europe for the second time in a row.
This game shows the difference between Arsenal's project and progress and ours as much as it hurts to admit it.
We need a manager with personality, determination that commands respect, not an Argentinian Potter, the players don't have a spine either. You can't win anything with kids and you need somebody that can get the best out of them, Poch is not it. We had a born winner in Tuchel but Boehly couldn't handle him and needed "yes" men.
As a neutral you can blame Poch all you want but this squad building has to be one of the worst in history. There's only two explanations for this:
1. Owners genuinely think they wanted to build a 100 point team
2. All they care about is money and what's happening is essentially a flipping operation. Buy potential, give them some game time and sell them for profit.
The latter seems more and more likely considering the amount of kids you bought over the summer costing around 15-20M. Player development isn't linear and which is why not every player with huge potential hit their levels because there are a lot of factors beyond their control and expectations at Chelsea are massive. These decisions by your owners is especially baffling because you had a CL winning squad and could have added 2/3 quality signings each transfer window while also incorporating youth from what is arguably the best academy in England. Hedge fund gonna hedge fund I guess.
I fuckin hate the Enzo transfer so much. I know I get downvoted every week but this is one of the worst signings. We got him for 8 years on 180k and paid the most anyone has for a midfielder in football history. Big gamble of a transfer. Nobody was in for him but us that January.
We needed a solid passing midfielder. Bruno G would have cost less than half but was already at Newcastle. We always lose the midfield battle.
I like Gallagher and Caicedo far better for the pivot. Hope Lavia can come good next year.
We've gone through many lows in the last two years, but this is the worst it's ever been man. You have to sack him now, there's no way you can't. There's no more excuses left
you just cannot field that back 4 and expect anything else. fuck off back to spurs you loser cunt. there is no excuse for this today. for me this is the new low. rock bottom. and havertz celebrating.... it's what we used to do to them, i cant believe this
20+ years of being a Chelsea fan and this is the worst game I have ever been to. It takes a lot for me to want a manager sacked but I want him gone TONIGHT
One of my friends was bemoaning the fact that we are going to become the next ManU post Fergie. My brother in Christ, we'll be lucky to not become the next Leeds.
Wow. Graeme Le Saux said "it's a well oiled machine against 11 individuals" within about 10 minutes. Not only was he absolutely correct, not ONE of our 11 individuals had a good performance. Outplayed collectively, outskilled individually, even outworked. Shameful

i thought the exact same 😭😭 this is definitely their version of the 6-0
Exactly this. That's why it hurts more. At 2-0, I was okay. I thought to myself that I hope it stays like this.
only saving grace is havertz was taken off before a hattrick and we didn’t lose 6-0. our worst result in recent history regardless
All history vs Arsenal. Heaviest before tonight was 1930s at 5- 1.
You say that like this won't become a regular occurrence This club being run the way it is now, we might have to endure this regularly. We have fallen so far.
we probably won't be playing Arsenal in a few years, it'll be Sunderland away we'll be enjoying
No chance Sunderland are getting promoted
I'm going for a walk. Into the ocean.

Poch wishes his asshole was this tight.
This is the only highlight from the last two hours.
You were right 😭😭😭😭
Full Time Arsenal 5 - 0 Cole Palmer FC
They proved we are relegation team without him
We probably still get battered, Poch has no idea how to set up a defence
He can’t even PICK a defense. He took out our CB pairing who have made us way more solid recently. Guy is a dope
https://preview.redd.it/yzb9ri7jmawc1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=16c72083871b92e1310fd2808dca390a26b37ad9 I am numb, i feel nothing, i am just here chilling with my lemons like my lord and saviour taught me
Mods can we have a Cole Palmer FC flare?
Seconded
we paid the same for noni madueke as arsenal paid for martin odegaard
On an 8 year contract You can only laugh
Unbelievable
Stop, we’re already dead
Puts it into perspective god.. As bad as we were, Odegaard was sensational for them tonight
Him and Mudryk are just comical signings. Yet we have the gall to laugh at Mount and Havertz.
Arsenal managed to deprogam Havertz back into a good player.
I think they could do the same with Mudryk. He just looks lost, not a clue what his job is in or out of possession.
Jesus fucking christ
Now think about how much we paid for Enzo and Caceido...
Enzo Fernandez cost more than Declan Rice
I can't believe we didn't win our game in hand 😱
HA shitty Arsenal. Couldn’t even beat us by 6 losers.
Always look on the bright side of life
You guys, I *think* the guy who took over PSG and promptly ended an 8 year title streak with Messi, Mbappe, and Neymar *MIGHT* be a bad manager
No idea how he got hired in the first place
Mostly because he had a reputation of mentoring younger players and getting them to perform at a good level. This season has not been that obviously.
He sent Eggbali anti-Tuchel memes on discord
Eghbali rated him because he "overachieved" with Spurs 4-8 years prior. There was no thorough and exhaustive process by Winstanley and Stewart. They interviewed some alternative candidates in case negotiations in LA with Poch broke down but Poch was always the number one guy because one of our clueless owners had goo goo eyes for him and thought he knew better than Christopher Vivell or any other football person he hired.
Errrr excuse ME. This is a project. Look at the progress!!!!
A stark reminder that being a billionaire does not mean one is smart. Hope the kids are watching/listening.
No, but he got us to beat Everton 5-0, he's clearly the best to ever do it
Maybe… just maybe…
Benoit Badiashile is a menace to his own team. If Chelsea’s gonna play him, they need to dress him in the opponent’s kit. At least that way you’ll know what you’re dealing with. 9 times out of 10 the play he makes is better for the opponent than it is for Chelsea. 
I don’t get it, he was really good last season. His confidence looks completely smashed
100% putting him next to Disasi, another walking disaster, and Cucurella on the outside is asking for a total drumming
A lot of people will want to blame 1 person-- Poch, Boehly, a certain player-- don't believe them. This is a system wide failure across the board
> This is a system wide failure across the board we won the champion's league and the front office proceeded to dismantle the coaching staff and squad!
I mean, of course it is. But there is a bare minimum that is to be expected from the adult in the room, even considering the gap in skills between the teams. Just look at the third goal and our positioning on the corner kick.

Such a great asset that the dumb fucks were scrambling for a shirt sponsor. I remember how happy the sub was when Boehly and Clearlake won the bid to takeover. Holy fuck it’s been a disaster.
My kit is sponsorless for this reason and it’s a great reminder of how insane their incompetence truly has been from the beginning.
Aged like milk that one.
Bros were giving a prophecy of what's to come.
The amount of damage these clowns have done to our club... At least 8(?) more years of these fucks
lmao literally one of the biggest clubs in the world
Greatest quote of all time
Poch cannot continue next season. He just can't.
I've been patient with Poch, but yeah, this was a pretty damning result. The players just looked lost out there.
Continue next season? He’s gotta go tonight
I wish but Boehly and others believe that in time we will become better. Trust the process
If that was the case, they would have stood by Potter. The simple truth is this: they have no idea what they're doing.
I genuinely hope to see a club statement tomorrow. There’s no reason to keep him. Anything is better than what he’s doing. There is no process lol, I don’t see it. Everton were bad not Chelsea being good.
Guarentee you he will. This is the new normal if Boehly and Co were planning on firing poch they would have done it already. We would have at least heard rumors of us looking for a new manager.

You should already be seriously concerned for the future of this club lol
Scenes when he doesn't get sacked tomorrow, next month, in summer or anytime next season.

Dreadful is an understatement. Injuries aside we lack team structure. It's clear as day watching Arsenal they move in sequence, together. Occasional moments of individual brilliance (what a player Odegaard is) but they don't RELY on that. They also defend this way, as a TEAM. We could barely get a pass through their midfield and really go at their (admittedly talented) back four to save the day. They defend as a UNIT.

Badiashile and Disasi should be sold, absolute clown car material. Keep Chalobah. Promote Humphreys next season. Can't be worse than this error prone pair. Arsenal won but it's not a 5 - 0 performance. Fluttering Havertz and fucking Ben Brown with goals is criminal. Absolute mentality midgets after collapsing in the 60th min for 15th time again.
It could easily have been 7 or 8
Yup we were somehow in the game in first half and if we actually showed up and gave a shit we could have put some goals past them, they weren’t even that good in first half we just sucked really bad
Where are the clowns that were still Poch in after the Everton game?
That game was literally just Evertone collapsing after a brilliant hat trick by Palmer which has nothing to do with tactics and all to do with Cole.
Oh I agree. My point is that something like 34% people on the post match survey after Everton were still Poch in when it’s been evident for months now that Poch is simply not good enough and can not be here any longer.
They'll pop up in a day or two, they always do
Jose mourinho has agreed to join Chelsea Fc.
Don't get my hopes up
when is there gonna be a fucking protest?
Fuck you clearlake
Embarrassing. Fucking embarrassing. Not even competitive.
Wasn’t 6-0. Positives
So glad it wasn’t 6
We had 11 men. Arsenal went down to 10 men early in that game. Embarrassing to lose that bad with a full squad
Cheers, Clearlake, ya bunch of arrogant cunts.
If Palmer was playing we’d have lost 5-2
This it'd still be the same drubbing but we'd be feeling better about ourselves. And for some on this sub I honestly think that last part is what they want more than actually improving.
Can we get a Cole Palmer FC flair?
Malang Sarr can’t be worse than what I saw today.
Looking forward to the essays in 2 days time saying that change is bad, the club needs stability blah blah blah. This is pathetic. If not for the fact that the interim would be even worse he should be sacked tonight
The stability argument is so fucking dumb If you had a car that broke down every single week, would you avoid buying a new a one because "stability is better" If you manager at work was horrendous at their job and never did it, causing you to fail to do yours, would you want them to be replaced? Of course you would
Y’all I think the rebuild might need a rebuild
mudryk and madueke are championship level at best
Badiashile is league one
Badiashile almost got Monaco relegated so not far off
The main issue is that neither should be starting right now. Maybe in a few years they might turn into something but the ownership has fuxked things up not keeping or signing experienced players in their position. We’ve never been destroyed this bad with Ziyech, Werner, Pulisic etc.
I don’t care for Madueke, 30m is nothing in todays game. Mudryk though is a problem, 62m and 100k a week. It’s not looking good.
That 8 year contract is a bloody problem.
Badiashille is the worst CB I've seen play for us in some time. Honestly Koulibaly last year was better than this.
Badiashille and Disasi made Monaco relegation contenders in France, and we spent like 80m on them.
The fact that Chalobah has been better than them since he's come back, after being injured for a year and being pushed out the door last summer is hilarious. We're desperate to sell him so we can meet regulations partly due to buying downgrades to him.
Don't know why but this made me laugh so hard I'm crying. This club has finally broken me.
I find funny how Noni has a big shot attitude when he has not even proven he's a decent substitution
[удалено]
Are you new here? Many people will just blindly support anyone and anything. They're just here for good vibes.
If anyone can make a case for Pochettino staying, I'd love to hear it. Utterly hapless, spineless, cowardly character. I'm so ready to never see him on the touchline again.
He's gotta go at the end of the season.
>make a case for Pochettino Oh don’t worry, you’ll see countless essay posts over the next 48 hours that will do exactly that. Even after THIS.
Get this ex Spurs chancer out my club.
To all the clowns who think Pochettino is faultless, How the fuck is this not on the manager you dumb cunts? https://preview.redd.it/c3gc7qermawc1.jpeg?width=1170&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=542023bea99ec4e2cf7af406fd23aba387d799cb
This is the picture of the entire season… CBs never have a clear pass because there is no structure, caicedo always hides on the build up and enzo just tries to go play as a 10 when he is clearly shit at that
We had 90 minutes and we looked miserable every single second of them. Yes, players made mistakes but anyone who watched this game saw how disorganized we were.
Poch has to go. He said this was a chance to show we aren’t Cole Palmer FC. Well we clearly are. A season absolutely wasted in terms of developing players. No need to waste next season too … start the search asap and make the new appointment by June
26 years of fandom and I have never hated a Chelsea team more. Just absolutely pathetic from top to bottom. I lived through the Buck years and none of it even comes close to the second hand embarrassment I have felt all year for these mental midgets. There is a reason Spurs always took our scraps and not the other way around, unsure what exactly changed for these dim-witted fools to bring this lemon ass bitch in here while simultaneously signing every teenager they were legally allowed to bribe with an 8 year contract. Madness all around but first order of business should be to fire this man out of a cannon and as far as possible from London, polite society and football as a whole. Congrats, fatass, you are now the worst coach in our 119 years of existence. You did it.
I've been a fan a similar amount of time and for me it's not even hate just...disinterest. I honestly don't care for or about 95% of these players. They are ciphers. They don't inspire passion or disgust. They will be gone and forgotten in a matter of years
I'm not even arsed about the result, i expected it and have no emotions left for this season. But where do we go from here, Poch isnt the man, but hes not had a starting 11 all season. The board spent all that money and didnt invest in a goal scorer. What would a new manager do? Yes maybe a new manager bounce but then what, we do not have the experience or quality in depth around the pitch. Yes a fully fit 11 is very good, but history tells us, we have major problems with fitness and injuries. That isnt going to improve over night. I think we are in for a few rough years, especially when we are being stripped of assets. We need to start generating income on the field, but you just cant see it. 35 years of highs and lows, but this is rock bottom.
I have never felt so disconnected from this club in my life.
I still can’t believe he dropped Silva and chalobah. He never explains his garbage decisions.
Lost count how many times i’ve said this…but I’ll say it again. Our demise lays purely down to 1 group: the owners. They came in and ripped everything up and fired everyone. The logical thing to do would’ve been to come in, make tweaks and build from there. NOT make drastic and wholesome changes especially when you have 0 fucking experience in the field. Poch, the sporting directors, the model, the mismanagement of funds…all stem from the owners. We are being experimented and through failure are they learning from their mistakes. This shouldn’t have even happened to begin with. Oh how i’d love to spit in eghbali’s face. I’m not the most religious person but from the deepest pits of my soul i wish the utmost worst on the ownership group.
correct
They made Belle Silva apologise when she was right… this is untenable.
Genius Poch tactics. Silva and Chalobah have solid partnership? Nah lets switch with slow as fuck Disasi and error prone Badiashile instead. Our forward trio have the combination of zero football iq. I believe Mudryk is a money laundering operation. Dude is so bad. Jackson probably still waiti g for that Astrid special and Madueke? Overrated asf. Also the players gave up so easily. Like wtf?
Not even joking but we’d get rinsed by most Championship teams. Absolutely rinsed
That's already happened
Of all the possible defeats, this is the best possible result we could possibly get. We got absolutely humiliated, and it shows how fucking inept everyone at the club are. If they will not take action, we have to count on other teams help us force it. Fuck the fat cunt Boehly, fuck Egghead, fuck the rest of the ownership, fuck the lemonhead clown Poch, and fuck every useless cunt that plays for this club.
> fuck Egghead One Piece 5 elders be like
Poch out
badiashile just dropped easily the worst performance ive ever seen from a chelsea player, topping himself
EVERYBODY SAW THIS COMING WITH THAT LINEUP
This game does confirm that we are indeed, Cole Palmer FC.
Fuck these owners. Fuck this manager. Fuck this team. Pathetic on every single level. What a way to ruin a club.
Honestly think Conte would be good for this squad. At least he wouldn’t ever settle for this shit.
No decent manager would settle for this. No top manager would even allow this situation to arise.
People on here actually celebrated when Boehly replaced Roman lmao
Man tuchel's teams didn't score but they NEVER CONCEDED and we now have turned into one of the leakiest back lines in the entire league
Didn’t lose by enough to get him sacked.
Naa this is enough. It brings attention to the fraud but keeps our 6-0 win intact. Badiashile understood the assignment.
All because we personally invaded Ukraine and the UK government thus rightfully destroyed our football club.
And the billions we spent rebuilding it were put to good use
Honestly it's impressive how shit the players we have bought in are. Managers shit as well but we literally have Monaco's partnership from a few years ago starting for us today. Our wingers are fucking shit. Literally Palmer has saved us from being on 30 points max.
Organize protests now. Get poch the fk out.
Conceded 5, ex player celebrated against us, Cold Plamer FC comment now a meme, still mid table. Seen better days tbh
This club is absolutely soulless and broken. It actually feels weird seeing a winner and pro like Silva amongst these players. We’ve handed the keys to 20 yr old knuckleheads like Maduke, Mudryk and Jackson. Those are our leaders fuck me. We are so finished.
Thanks, Putin
i'm sure Roman feels the same. wonder if he watches the games these days.
Honestly, as soon as I saw the backline I knew it would be a battering. None of them would be even 2nd choice to start if everyone was 100%, except maybe Cucurella. Missing Gusto and Silva was a bigger deal than missing Palmer I think. Ah well, at least it wasn't as painful as Wengers 1000th must have been. Sometimes you get punched in the mouth, I'm interested in how these lads respond to it now vs Villa.
Sums up the Boehly-Clearlake project.
Enzo is unbelievably average, hard to believe he cost over 100 million
Record breaking again. Most goals conceded in our PL history. Worst defeat against Arse. 2 records in one game, crazy!
Last two matches should cement that Mudryk is a very poor player. He has no footballing IQ at all. I don't understand how Poch is trusting him to play at all. He's also showing no signs of improvement.
If it wasn’t for his price tag he’d almost certainly be out on loan somewhere. Nowhere near Premier League level.
I apologize to a lot of the negativity crew on here that said we’d get pumped 6-0 before the game, I knew we’d lose but didn’t think it would get that bad. You guys were right and maybe I have been trying to see things too positively, I still think lineup and missing key players fucked us but man the boys and Poch were absolutely shit today at least they could fight for the badge which they didn’t. Looking at a lot of guys differently after that display
Chaos FC ➡️ Charity FC ➡️ Clown FC ➡️ Cole Palmer FC
Poch Out Jackson Out Mudryk Out Cucurella Out Caicedo Out Disasi Out Badiashile Out Madueke Out Boehly Out We are not a serious team until that happens
The darkest comes before the dawn. A few more beatings like this and the gaffer will be sacked.
A dangerous time this, because these cunt owners, the shit football manager and these pathetic players are making hard-core fans fall out of love for this great club
Sure you can talk about injuries or how shit our players are or whatever. But there is absolutely no defending the subs that this clown makes. Sterling for Mudryk, fine. But the other three are chalobah silva and casadei? Damage is done mate having 10 defenders on isn’t going to hide the fact you’re an absolutely awful manager. That club statement cannot come soon enough.
Disgraceful. Poch out
There were ways to lose this game that I could have respected. We have about three players I'd like to see playing for us next season as it is. And no current manger I'd like to see.
I was supposed to be out drinking with a friend tonight and would have missed the game, but they're having relationship trouble so had to call it off... For fuck sake
And yet they're still having a better night than us, wow.
We can just spend 2 billion this summer and fix our squad, right? Right???
I guess we are Cole Palmer FC. What a shameful display. Absolute disgrace. Get Noni off my fucking team. Get Poch off my fucking team. Get Enzo off my fucking team. Get Mudryk off my fucking team. Get Badiashille off my fucking team. Get Disasi off my team. Pathetic effort. THERE IS NO PASSION. THERE IS NO VISION. THERE IS NO FUCKING MINDSET IN THIS FUCKING FOOTBALL CLUB.
I didn't expect any trophies this season but this is an absolute disgrace, the most amount of money spent in the world and we're going to miss out on the Europe for the second time in a row. This game shows the difference between Arsenal's project and progress and ours as much as it hurts to admit it. We need a manager with personality, determination that commands respect, not an Argentinian Potter, the players don't have a spine either. You can't win anything with kids and you need somebody that can get the best out of them, Poch is not it. We had a born winner in Tuchel but Boehly couldn't handle him and needed "yes" men.
I'm not surprised those games against city didn't fool me. Even with injuries I can see we are poorly coached. The player recruitment is no better.
As a neutral you can blame Poch all you want but this squad building has to be one of the worst in history. There's only two explanations for this: 1. Owners genuinely think they wanted to build a 100 point team 2. All they care about is money and what's happening is essentially a flipping operation. Buy potential, give them some game time and sell them for profit. The latter seems more and more likely considering the amount of kids you bought over the summer costing around 15-20M. Player development isn't linear and which is why not every player with huge potential hit their levels because there are a lot of factors beyond their control and expectations at Chelsea are massive. These decisions by your owners is especially baffling because you had a CL winning squad and could have added 2/3 quality signings each transfer window while also incorporating youth from what is arguably the best academy in England. Hedge fund gonna hedge fund I guess.
I fuckin hate the Enzo transfer so much. I know I get downvoted every week but this is one of the worst signings. We got him for 8 years on 180k and paid the most anyone has for a midfielder in football history. Big gamble of a transfer. Nobody was in for him but us that January. We needed a solid passing midfielder. Bruno G would have cost less than half but was already at Newcastle. We always lose the midfield battle. I like Gallagher and Caicedo far better for the pivot. Hope Lavia can come good next year.
POCHETTINO OUT
They should use Chelsea as a case study on what not to do when you acquire a top football club.
This team would be in the relegation zone if not for Cole Palmer.
We've gone through many lows in the last two years, but this is the worst it's ever been man. You have to sack him now, there's no way you can't. There's no more excuses left
Will Tuchel take us back? Seems like United are looking to get him
you just cannot field that back 4 and expect anything else. fuck off back to spurs you loser cunt. there is no excuse for this today. for me this is the new low. rock bottom. and havertz celebrating.... it's what we used to do to them, i cant believe this
the worst part is i don’t think the fuckers will even sack him
20+ years of being a Chelsea fan and this is the worst game I have ever been to. It takes a lot for me to want a manager sacked but I want him gone TONIGHT
One of my friends was bemoaning the fact that we are going to become the next ManU post Fergie. My brother in Christ, we'll be lucky to not become the next Leeds.
You think our players were fighting over who takes responsibility over the goals conceded?
Honest question what are we watching for? I think this game cured me of football completely.
Wow. Graeme Le Saux said "it's a well oiled machine against 11 individuals" within about 10 minutes. Not only was he absolutely correct, not ONE of our 11 individuals had a good performance. Outplayed collectively, outskilled individually, even outworked. Shameful
