It's been completely missed that the second half of last season under poch they were top 3….
They were already "fixed"

More like "we were fools" rather than "we were fooled"
Did Jim seriously bring up Tammy Abraham in that argument? lol what? He was 18-20 when he played for us and his numbers were actually pretty decent.
Footballers and their agents always squeeze clubs and that has brought about the multiple tournaments they’re complaining about currently. Clubs are allowed to do whatever they want to stay afloat, so long as it’s legal. If footballers and their agents don’t not see clubs as entities owned by human beings when negotiating for their deals , why then should club owners and administrators worry about the humanity of footballers.
Thats why they are the ones who have the money and are called owners,, and you fools live in this bubble and blabber blabber blabber
You're giving Poch way too much credit.
If you lot ever have a multi billion dollars business you can run it the way you like and stop the Chelsea owners how to their Club
I don't understand how the conversation devolves into you guys making fun of Chelsea's squad size again?? Look at the injury issues forming around the league, and compared to last season when Chelsea had 11 injured players, instead we have 0. They perform against every opposition you put them against with a squad of 24 super talented players who are all making arguments to be in the first team. This is obviously extremely successful, and teams around the league will be looking to replicate this strategy.
Chelsea has always been ahead of the curve. It is not easy to be successful 'only' by throwing money. You need Quality and a plan. Someone at United would understand. But someone at United could not understand and he dubbed us Billion Pound Bottle Jobs without ever giving a long term thought.
The Bottle Jobs will rule and dominate the league in the near future and you would be eating these sobriquets yourself
And don't forget already played city and Liverpool😎
stopped watching when u said posh made us play coherently. He did not.
Poch was not good
The most successful clubs on the planet has high manager turnover.
The way we handle Sterling is great get him out of our club, Benjamin just hasn't been good for two years now so we brought in people better on less and can do more.
clowns
I agree with it being a really nasty way of handling Sterling, Chilwell, Conor Gallagher but you fools slurped Arteta for the way he treated Aubameyang, Lacazette, Nicholas Pepe etc. But hate does blind so it makes sense the difference in opinion on a matter that is the same
You guys don’t know ball
