Chelsea losing to that Liverpool team is really poor. It was as good a 0-0 you can see to be fair 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rodders0223 Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Poch would have been alright for us probably even good but he's got absolutely no business at a club in a competitive league desperate to actually win things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tommo_b Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Does this result mean Chelsea missed out on securing European football next season? Or is the Caraboa cup more obsolete then I realise? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 1 hour ago, villa4europe said: Will they? Who at Chelsea will make noise about not being a CL player? Nkunku is the only one I can see, they've assembled a billion pound team of players from smaller teams who aren't then playing well enough to make that noise, even sterling for example he's not in a position to be moaning about the CL as he's not playing at that level anymore Take Caicedo as another example, other than his ridiculous price tag how's he in a position to moan about the CL? Caciedo could've easily gone to Liverpool in the summer (same for Lavia if he's still alive). Mudryk could've been a squad player at Arsenal. Enzo will probably attract interest of teams like Juventus, PSG, Inter, Real Madrid if he starts playing up in a year or two. Remember aswell most of them are on lower wages than they would get at CL clubs so to me that's where this Chelsea business model starts to disintegrate if they don't start finishing at least 4th again in near future.

The Fun Factory Posted February 25 Share Posted February 25 Plop have now won the league cup 10 times. Given it has been running for a little over 60 years that is nearly a win every half a dozen years. They really love a league cup. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where are you getting that from? Caicedo didn't turn Liverpool down because they were offering more money then Chelsea. The guys they signed are all on big money contracts, not just long contracts. When your transfer fee is that high you demand the wages that go with it. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They didn’t even win their first one until 1981 so it’s been more frequent than that. Guy on the radio said they’ve only won it in 90 minutes twice.

We must be the only club to have once lead on the most league titles, FA Cups and League Cups all at one time, only to be overtaken in all three.

I saw a stat earlier, after 23 games Potter was 1 league position better off but achieved same points despite Poch having a billion to spend and a pre-season.

HKP90 Posted February 25 VT Supporter Share Posted February 25 3 minutes ago, PaulC said: Never a red imo Fair enough. Imo it is. Look at him watching the ball and not following through, studs up. Also, according to the refs this IS a red card. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
