From the Guardian: So that's two weekends in a row our injury-free squad has failed to beat a side wracked with injuries.

I remember the instant transformation under TT from the shambles we were under Lamps. Players - especially young players - need guidance, proper coaching, clear instructions/ roles and regular touchline prompting, but Lamps seemed to think you just sent eleven players out with a vague game plan. Just because he had an instinctive understanding of how to play the game doesn't mean all players do. His passivity during games is what we get now from Poch, with players seemingly left to just get on with it.

Another game we won on xG (it was close) so the owners will be happy about our theoretical league position.

Fair result. Another dismal away performance. At least we came back to nick a point. The team remains a mess, which is reflective of the state of the club.

Didn't realise my stream was so behind!

Seems Poch noticed. Got the hook.

Colwill now just passing it to them

No authority, aggression, organisation, leadership, decisiveness. Shameful.

We've won about 5% of the 50-50 duels.

There is no part of this team that is functioning.

There's zero defensive shape or organisation. It's horrible to watch

The way we concede possession is embarrassing

Ineptitude all over the field

Lovely cross, dreadful finish.

What minute will Gallagher's second yellow arrive?

Get ready for the PPTT* collapse *Post Pochettino team-talk

NJ has a left foot like mine

I can think of other adjectives

I was wondering whether Sterling or Mudryk would get the nod. Wasn't expecting to see Chilwell there. I still think it'll be a 3-5-2 with proper wingbacks for once.

No English club can match our income from selling home-grown players: 347m euros 2014-23 https://football-observatory.com/WeeklyPost446

https://www.transfermarkt.com/highest-income-in-a-single-transfer-window-chelsea-set-to-break-monaco-rsquo-s-record/view/news/425224 A large sum that gets left out of our player-sales income is the sell-on fee for Livramento, which could be as much as £15m

Durie, Poyet, José, Conte

"Former Leeds United, West Ham and West Brom boss Sam Allardyce has told TalkSPORT (27/2 8:09am) that he would fly back to England tomorrow if he was handed the chance to take over at Stamford Bridge." No mention of Warnock or McLaren

He's awful. I actually thought Kavanagh was very good on Sunday. Generally kept his cards in his pocket. His only big error was missing the foul by Caicedo that put Gravenberch out of the game. That was a definite yellow.
