We are getting fucked in the game one way or another
Unlike you to be so upbeat...
Can't see nothing but a chelsea win to be honest. Jackson and Palmer will run us daft
If we don’t see a positive reaction in this game, then I’m afraid it will be obvious. Our players are on the beach already.
TBF, Ange has told them (and everybody) that Champions League isn’t too important.
Chelsea 2 Spurs 3.
Cup competitions weren’t important under Poch and CL isnt important under Ange. It’s amazing isn’t it…….I wonder what we are playing for nowadays. Just to piss off the fans it feels like.
Well, he hasn't but you crack on if you want to wallow in grief.
When did he say that?
I’d have to dig out the interview but it was recent. He said in reaction to being asked how important top 4 was…
Another loss incoming
If that was 42 years ago, I'd be inclined to agree with you.Chelsea 2 Spurs 3.
I refuse to predict a loss to those lot, even if I should know better.
Predicting a loss and then losing just means one suffers twice!
I mean...no he did not, but if you want to misinterpret / deliberately lie about things, then you crack on.
He actually said the players should feel disappointed to be in 5th. He literally said that.
My least favourite fixture of the season, so many shitty memories going to their dump. Going for 2-2 as neither team can defend for shit.
It never takes much for them to switch off, any opportunity you don't need to ask them twice...
I'm more balanced on Levy/Enic than some, I don't tend to direct blame for on the pitch issues at the boardroom, but I do think Levy has set precedent to the players that once an ultimate goal is gone then everything else can just get fucked by the number of times he's sacked a manager mid-season and just written the remainder of a season off by installing a woefully inadequate caretaker.
What message does it send to the squad when he just sacks Mourinho and plonks Mason in charge for a quarter of a season? TWICE!
He's even got history going as far back as Hoddle, and installing Pleat for what was it, like 2/3s of a season as caretaker? Ironically when hiring Hoddle, he sacked Graham and then got Hoddle in during the season.
If those at the head of the organisation don't care about writing off large chunks of the season once the main goal for the year has gone, then why should the players?
You'd like to think they would at least play for pride but little evidence of that. Feels like there's a distinct lack of character amongst the group, despite them usually talking a good game and saying the right things off the pitch.
We go again...
