Don’t be so silly. TBSD hire one of their mates who was scouting for a championship club WBA?? Going to be interesting to see if the club buys anyone from the Championship this summer.

If Poch get 54 points he done an outstanding job with a squad put together by a couple of scouts. Poch did not buy players injured or with a serious injury history. That's down to the scouts who seem immune from criticism by some on here. +70 pts team on paper according to the scouts, 50 pts in reality

You forgot the packet of 20 woodbine

Fortunately or not we are now under the radar for both aspects of those headlines

TFSW took the club from 12th to 3rd and Europa cup in 7 months - Toilet coach not forgetting it saved the clubs bacon as defending CL champions were a one hit wonder and could not defend their title

When one of TBSD who run the first team, brings in his CB paring from his previous at employers at a considerable cost, you can bet there is not a chance in hell there will be an upgrade whist he as a part of TBSD team is responsible for first team affairs

Umm our attacking left side, unless you rate the likes of Mudryk above Grealish? that said do you believe Grealish would be interested in project Chelsea? I am sure his boyhood club has more appeal

Don't need players to run through brick walls, that normally associated with clubs like Luton etc. We need players who have the quality to take the club up the league table, something the current billion pound squad has failed miserably at.

Might as well let TBSD purchase another lot of very average players to keep the club at the current level. Not sure the current Chelsea squad doesn't have players with attitudes when you look at some of game this season and the on field antics.

Media must be bored, lazy or just bloody stupid. The club doesn't pay the salary these players would ask.

That's about our level. No quality coach is going to touch this squad of dolly mixtures, along with being a subservient to a couple of scouts who spent 1/2 a billion on creating this squad of dolly mixtures.

Would not be surprised if he is under consideration by PSG as an Mbappe replacement

If you keep your fingers crossed, you will be able to watch them at Aldershot in the next few seasons and my hat

So will David Moyes I'll get my coat

If my response offended you then I apologize. As for the 70pts team, let's revisit that in December. I am happy to eat humble pie, unfortunately there doesn't seem to be any indications on the horizon for me to go and buy the pie. David Moyes is available in the summer and he ticks all the boxes of a competent PL coach, who improves his teams and wins the occasional piece of silverware.

Sorry in the word of Jason Cundy you are a bit deluded if you believe the squad is good enough to produce a 20pts improvement next season to make the top 5 maybe 70pts team on paper 50pts in reality.

So the same players have been Un-coached by 3 coaches in 18 months should poch walk this summer? its nothing to do with the level of the playing staff?

The same could be amid at you, in only pipe up to try and defend the club's poor recruitment over the last couple of windows and the level of those recruited players, along with the continual sledging of the previous regime and academy players It's a funny old game.

Probably caught a lot of people off guard, as it's normally the 2nd half when the wheels fall off the team 😀

I think we are safe on this one. Poch is only two points from the magic 50 and another season at the helm. Brighton are just another Leicester or Southampton who after a while of sell of the best assets each season catches up with the club. I say within 2 seasons Brighton will get relegated. At least TB assisted in getting Tony Bloom on the cover of Forbes

Alternatively he could be showcasing all the duds in the squad to the hierarchy

Maybe poch thinks the same and is doing everything possible to piss off the hierarchy so he get his P45 in the summer and his handsome payoff.

Better look at villas results over the past couple of months puts the result into context. Matches coming up Thursday and Sunday IMO are better marker on where the squad is although if Poch persists with Midryk it’s like playing with 9 outfield players. The midfield looks 100% better and organised without Enzo. Poch is only 2 points from the magic 50. That should be enough for him to stay another season.

The original post is whether Palmer can keep his high levels up next season, if he can the he is the real deal, if he falls off a cliff then i doubt anyone will be overly shocked As for Disasi & Jackson, they got 8 year to do whatever they like, one thing is for sure if the club has asperations of top 4 and beyond you don't have the likes of Disasi and Jackson in you starting line up week in week out - a couple of good back up player who cost a small fortune.

table and points accumulation since Jan-23 don't lie
