If Chelsea don't sort themselves out pronto they will be dragged back into the pack and be in a scrap for third and fourth place!

I thought they would win the PL this season. They addressed their biggest weakness and got a proven goal scorer in Lukaku and we had the same issue and missed out on Kane.

Maybe we are ok after all just fielding a team of 11 midfielders.

They're in a fight for top 4 now.

Pretty much my thoughts as well.

I am surprised to see the drop in form they have. They will finish top 4 as the other contenders aren't good enough but we will finish some distance ahead of them when it looked like it was going to be a tight title race

Fair play to Potter, I've rarely seen someone like Brighton play such attractive football.

I was saying the same last night. Some of their one touch stuff is great. They're good on both flanks. That lad they bought from Chelsea for 4 million ripped them apart and the run from the centre back near the end was immense.
Did laugh when the commentator said how good their record was against the top teams this season but conveniently forget we scored 4 there.

After Pep he can be a really good option, he looks fit for the style here, but I don't know if we will gamble or we will go after someone with a bigger reputation.

Fulham with another 6 last night to take their tally for the Championship season to 70 goals!!

It must be so boring for their fans to watch. Every week knowing they’re going to smash the other team and score loads of goals. I couldn’t think of anything worse.

Fuck those rent boys, I'm sick of hearing about their champion league triumph. Pep won it for them with his sucidal selection (I'm still not completely over it). I'm glad Pep got his act together and schooled that overrated Kraut.

We caused our own downfall in the other two defeats as well. The semi final fell at the wrong time for us because of a busy schedule and the fact that they moved the league Cup final. We had away games midweek either side of it. Dortmund away before where we couldn't afford to rotate with only a 2-1 lead from the first leg and Villa away after the semi followed by the league Cup final the weekend after so we had no choice but to rotate. The FA Cup was lowest priority at the time.

The league game was our own fault. Aguero scores the penalty and its game over so I don't subscribe to the nonsense that Tuchel has Peps number. They've managed one shot on target in the two league games since Peps brainfart selection in the final. It's purely the journalists narrative to try and get readers. It was the same with the Arsenal game where they were hailed as fantastic. I didn't hear one person mention that we were playing our 3rd game in 7 days, had another away game in London on the Wednesday night therefore two days rest to Arsenals six. Didn't take them long on Saturday to mention that Chelsea had played midweek though.
Balotelli......that's a brilliant finish.

Tuchel was complaining that they were tired. Lukaku has hardly played, Mount and Jorginho were both on the bench against us as he went for his 0-0. Hudson Odoi didn't play against us so the whole fatigue argument is bollocks. Major problems in their dressing room, didn't celebrate the goal last night. If Spurs beat them on Sunday they'll have a great shout of overtaking them and they're shit.

Let us not forget or even just gloss over the fact Chelsea have sent out over 20 players on loan this season. Nearly another full squad. And a few of those are doing really well, Gallagher being the stand out.

I reckon that apart from Chelsea fans, and I suspect that even a good amount of them are disillusioned with Tuchel excuses, the rest of the football world has little to zero sympathy

Pep always talks really favourably about Potter - I wouldn't be surprised if he's on the Spafia's radar - you'd think they have quite a detailed shortlist for when Pep finally goes however.

He moans, but in a year here he praised us 10 times more than Klippy did all of his scouse career.
I found odd his digs this month, maybe he tried some mind games?

Leicester beating Spuds.

See Brentford are giving a debut to a new goalie v the rags.

Odd. Unless there’s something underhand going on
