its such a secretive pleasure, almost as bad as the other half catching me watching pornhub
Just tell her you’re scouting for things for her to try 👍

Injuries zzzzzz. Chavs fans and biased journalists are banging on about that.

Available tonight:

Kepa - world’s most expensive goalie £72m
Thiago
Koulibaly £33m
Azpiliceuta
Mount
Kovacic £40m
Felix
Havertz £76m
Jorginho £57m
Auba
Cuckoo £62m
Fofana £75m
Ziyech £40m
Gallagher

Plus they’ve gazumped the rest of world football for 20 years, gathering often illegally, many of the great 16 to 18 year olds.

Hundreds of caps, serial trophy winners in that squad tonight.

It’s a slight on Fulham who were without their goal machine/target man.

I'm goint to stick my neck out and say that Chelsea won't sack him. Not now, and not this season.

Brad Bobley bought what he thought was an entire system (missing one key part - Tony Bloom). He must have done his homework and realized that Plodder took a while to turn a place around. Chelsea won't be alright till much of the personnel on the pitch have been changed.

The old Chelsea was hire the manager and players with the highest profile at any cost and coach the little princes with their bloated egos to perform, and bin anyone off who didn't immediately catch fire.

Like...Salah. And De Bruyne......and so on.

Meanwhile...the global income was still no match for ManU.....a 'special' club (still....).

This is obviously rich twit madness.

A proper club needs a culture and ethos. Bring on the youth, develop players, coach, be proudly part of a club. A family.

So Bobly has (sort of) bought our machinery. Our staff. (But not our family - ho ho ho).

And so he is not going to act like Abramovic and bin off Plodder anytime soon. It would mean that he, Brad Bobley is a buffoon and an arse. It would mean that he is no better than Abramovic, and that franchise Chelsea with its nobby supporters is doomed to an endless cycle of hire and fire. No soul. Like an inflatable f*** with a bottomless pit of puncture repair kits.

We shall see whether Bobley will stick or twist soon. With Tony Bloom at our helm....what can I say? What fun!

Not for me. We don't need them.

The only ones of concern were the recruiters. But one of those is up in Newcastle.

I'm increasing of the opinion that the brains of the recruitment is Tony Bloom, and the other laughing boys were simply sounding boards. Maybe Tony is developing increasing confidence in his decision making. After recruitment the buck stops with the coach (and his team). Our coach has his team.

👍
My thoughts too.

He seemed too relaxed about Winstanley and Ashworth leaving.

Almost as if he only gave them access to just enough data analysis to allow them to fulfil their roles, but not the crown jewels.

We'll see if he keeps the job. Getting sacked can't be far away.

Chelsea is 12 after the GP appointment and Brighton 13th after appoiting RDZ. Not turned out well for anyone so far, could still change though.

Chelsea fans need patience, he's an elite manager now. Sure he'll put them right tomorrow
If he doesn't know of someone who will.
