Flinkers

Seriously, what do these players do all week? They don’t work on any basic footballing skills or tactics - that much is painfully obvious.

Sorry, that’s it for me too. I watch to relieve my stress not add to it. Here’s to better days.

Cucurella doing his usual headless chicken act

What would help the players is proper coaching and some accountability. It’s all just empty platitudes and promises.

All the more reason to leave him on the bench and stick with what we had. Pochettino couldn’t have picked a worse sub!

11 goals against in the last 5 league games.

Badiashile brought on to shore things up and he gets jumped over and lets the same man run off him for the goal. Great sub again, really worked wonders.

What’s the point of winning 3 points against United if you just chuck them away against the worst team in the league? I’d be tearing f*cking strips off them before they even left the field.

Seriously, WTF is wrong with this team!?

Happy Birthday, birthday twin! What a present they served up last night. From the pits of anger to the peaks of joy! Hope you had a great day.

How can you give a two goal lead away so cheaply? Good grief…

Was never getting there, was he?

Just play the man in for goodness sake

Sanchez could have at least taken the guy out and gotten himself suspended. Can’t even do that right. After the last few weeks I thought we’d turned a corner and could start looking upwards again. I guess I was wrong

Couldn’t even wait until full time to get the apology out for them and now I’m reading in Op-Eds that it’s apparently the worst decision in VAR history. We regularly get over double the amount of cards as our opposition, although we monopolize the ball in most matches. We’re systematically fouled without any sort of action and we’re punished when we point it out. It’s gone beyond incompetence - it reeks instead of rampant prejudice.

21 shots, 2 on target. It’s like Groundhog Day. Time to start hitting the players where it hurts - in the wallet.

Which would probably mean that Andrey Santos, Chukwuemeka or, if signed, Lavia won’t get the game time they need. Like you, I like Conor and I hope he stays. It just may be that for his own personal development it might be a good time to move on.

In all honesty Frank Lampard wasn’t the player he became at 23 either. Who knows how Conor will develop over the next few seasons if he gets regular game time. The problem he has now is that it’s unlikely he’ll get it at Chelsea if we assume Caicedo and Fernandez are the starting midfielders.

Lovely - belated Happy Returns Mr C!

All round the big lakes near Munich is great real estate, albeit extremely pricey. It must be a super place to live though. Having a reconstructed ankle myself, I can commiserate with Mrs Lower - hope she enjoyed herself nonetheless!

Lovely, we usually drive to Hersching am Ammersee and walk over the hill when we're there. It's a nice walk through the forest and works up and good appetite! A Maas and a 'haxe never tasted better. Their Bockbiers are lovely drops but a bit too heavy for a daily tipple. The Helles fills that spot for me.

Andechs?

The Eater of Worlds

Pretty sure we paid a fee (€15m?) for Aubameyang…

I thought the common consensus was that due to the short turnaround between seasons we were woefully undercooked going into last season.
