Chucky, not looking for any sympathy mate we are where we are and it’s all of our own making and if it all ended tomorrow I would still die a happy man.
I never expected to see Chelsea win a PL Title yet I’ve seen them win 5 of them , I never expected to see Chelsea competing in the CL all but every season for the best part of 20 years let alone win the Champions League and then there’s been all the trips to Cup Finals and Cups won.
Sympathy?
There’s lots that would give their left b*****k to have enjoyed what we have mate.?

6th February 2018 at 11:30 am #14930I’d certainly give your left bollock for all that! 🙂
Dunno Peggy, don’t want to think that to be honest, it would ruin the game even more for me…

6th February 2018 at 12:30 pm #14932Anonymous999/chucky…. It’s now the time for City fans to give over their balls for the silverware they’ll likely win over the coming seasons.
You really have to point the fingers at the spoilt brat brigade at the bridge who wear the kit. Two title winning seasons followed by implosion. Same players who downed tools for Jose have pretty much done the same under Conte.

6th February 2018 at 1:41 pm #14933442, it was a really poor performance but to be fair down to 10 men I thought the Chelsea players showed a decent level of commitment for a large part of the second half.
I don’t know whether Conte has lost the players or not I think you would have to be inside the club and close to the first team squad to know that.
I know there are parralels being drawn about what happened with Mourinho and whats happening now under Conte but in the Mourinho example Chelsea were 4th from the bottom not 4th from the top.
Of the starting eleven last night of Courtois,Azpi,Luiz,Cahill,Moses,Kante,Bakayoko Zappacosta, Pedro,Hazard and Willian 6 were there at the time of the collapse under Mourinho and I wouldn’t write it off completely for certain there are a lot of players not playing to their potential currently.
It doesn’t make sense to me for players the majority of whom will be at Chelsea next season to say “let’s stop playing to get the Manager out” at the same time risking a chance of competing in the CL next season. But as I said who really knows. Cheers 999

6th February 2018 at 1:52 pm #149369, cynically, you can’t see why players want to get paid the same money for less work?…. Pagan

6th February 2018 at 2:14 pm #14939Pagan, as you know very well mate all players want to play in the CL so it doesn’t hang together for me mate there again I’m not close enough to know what’s really going on at Chelsea to form an accurate view.

6th February 2018 at 2:42 pm #149429, cynical comment admittedly but those going to China sort of cast doubt on what we used to think motivates players, success and respect seem to have been replaced by celebrity and wealth, yeah it’s s depressing thought…. Pagan

6th February 2018 at 3:12 pm #14944Yeth… a thong… 🙂
Interesting comments about motivation above, for what’s it worth, I’m guessing the vast majority of Chelski players are easily in the 100k plus bracket when it comes to wages, some considerably higher, and they’ll get that regardless. And as we saw last night, the risk of losing Top4 wasn’t much of a motivation anyway. Chelski do have a seriously tough run of matches after the WBA next week (away to both Manc Clubs and then the Spuds!), with the small matter of a double header with Barca thrown in. If they can’t motivate themselves against Watford…
And as for wanting CL next year, I wonder exactly how loyal these players are to Chelsea… it’s not as though many of them didn’t jump ship quick enough to sign on to HMS Chelsea…

6th February 2018 at 3:18 pm #14945Chuckles, I seriously think you overestimated the sophistication of the level of humour on here with your thong joke?
As for player loyalty, I regard players as extremely highly paid mercenaries, and as such expect no loyalty….Pagan

6th February 2018 at 3:44 pm #14948I would also think that Chelsea need another rebuilding,with players like Cahill,Cesc,Pedro,Willian,Luiz,and Moses needed replacing!

Exactly the same could be said of the Spurs starting line up v Liverpool on Sunday bar Harry Kane. All footballers are transient mate.

6th February 2018 at 5:22 pm #14950Peggy… yeap, I guess that one went over certain peoples heads! (Unlike Goose’s thong which is normally round his ankles, the little tart!) As for loyalty, call me a romantic (or an idiot!) but I do like to think there is more in the game than we possibly give them credit for.
Goldie… granted, apart from Harry they were all bought (as are about 98% of players in the Prem) but rather than spend top whack on a ready-made replacement like certain clubs, how many of the team you mentioned above, were bought dare I say out the bargain bucket and “moulded” to a degree? Sure, before you say, that might be due to not having/willing to spend the money on top door players, but I think Spuds have shown throwing serious amounts of money at players isn’t the only way to go.

6th February 2018 at 5:51 pm #14953Chucky, I think you’ve changed the goal posts a bit there mate.
What you posed was “it’s not as though many of them didn’t jump ship quick enough to sign on to HMS Chelsea… swap HMS Chelsea for HMS Spurs and the same will apply to all the Spurs players bar Harry Kane.
I’m going to leave it there now though for fear of straining our new found good relationship.? Cheers 999
