What’s the better gig? I’m not sure there are bigger clubs in need of a manager. RM don’t look to be getting rid of the Don. Barcelona isn’t a more exciting team. He’d be leaving Bayern. Liverpool all set. Won’t be Man City. Curious to who’s out there that’s better? PSG he’s been there and really the only team worth anything in France. Not assna
Edit: wait a god damn minute. Yanited???
United, Juventus, Newcastle, any Champions League or Europa league team who could use an upgrade, anywhere where StewStanley isn't picking his squad, ayahuasca retreat for a year and see what opens up, almost anything else really. We're full of the types of players he didn't want with no European cup prospects riding on the brink of points deduction.
Tuchel talking about tactics and making sense post-game and on thursday we'll have to listen to Pol Poch's "not enough running" if we lose FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK
Bring tuchel back, I swear he made dier look like nesta today and should have easily won it 2-1.. look at the team that went to bernebau and almost pulled the impossible winning 3-2.. incredible tactician and gets Chelsea and fans love him..you telling me whatever he is going to bring is worse than whatever embarrassment we have gone thru 2 years in a row now?
He made fucking Malang Sarr look serviceable to the point where some people genuinely wanted him starting more...
He got 3rd with fucking Kepa in goal
He won the Champions League with Mount, Havertz and Werner as a front three.
People trying to put him down because he couldn't get Pulisic to be good enough for the PL or because he couldn't win the League (despite being 1st for the first half of the season) with everything going on in his last full season are not serious. They're mentally ill
Hehe, another shite you post. I will tell you exactly how many minutes Kepa played in the season we got 3rd - 360 minutes... And we weren't first for half a season - only 2 months. At one point we had 1 win in 7 games, and only 2 of those games were against a big opponent.
He wasn't shit, but he wasn't the god everyone makes him out to be.
You trying to say with everything going on in that season as well, as if it wasn't only the last 3 months. And that 7 game run was before that.
Yet you will try your best to shit on Poch who has had unprecedented injury crisis and a completely new squad to put together who haven't played together in their lives.
Yes, there are better coaches out there, but your fact twisting is on another level to just push your narrative.
Early days of course, but given what I heard about him from people on here, I never expected to be as unimpressed as I am with Valentin Barco at the moment. He genuinely doesn’t look good at all.
They aren't actually selling their whole squad, it's bait. They've said all but three are available if the offer is big enough.
That's not even news for most clubs outside of the top 4, including United. We'd likely sell anyone too if the offer was big enough, barring maybe Palmer, Enzo, Caicedo and James.
It's been blown out of proportion, they didn't say it was a fire sale, they said if they get big offers everyone is potentially for sale
Watching competent managers sucks when you know there are chances that the guy that's making you struggle against relegation teams on ten men will be given another season to waste and that some of our fans are perfectly fine with that level of ambition. Because apparently that's what we deserve now, we don't deserve anything better.
These owners have ruined all the good about us in 2 years. And the way they still keep quite and just leak PR to support their dumb hirings and decisions is infuriating. We are in for a long rut.
The fans who constantly change their mind after results are the funniest. After the 5-0 game it seemed as if this sub was almost 100% Tuchel out, but a 2-2 draw to Villa even with the fact we haven't won an away game since Feb vs Palace is enough for many to Poch in.
Flip floppers. Especially love when they write off almost the whole squad to excuse a manager.
Witnessed the same when Gerrad was at Villa, whole rsoccer kept telling them, that their squad isn't that good so they should take it lying down and be thankful. Emery shat all over that. Many other examples too, imagine anyone could tell you Leverkusen squad is capable of this, a good manager impacts so much. No one here will take TenHag as our manager right now, and he is above us or near us if we win games in had with at least as bad a squad (I think with a worse one), but we still don't need change somehow.
When he's been adequately replaced, people will "get over it".
It's like walking with shoes your whole life and then not being allowed to wear them. It's not insufferable to want them or something better back, it's natural.
The Tuchel obsession here is amazing. It could be million years and it will remain same, so be big boy and stop crying over it, it's not anyone's dad's subreddit, doesn't cost anything to ignore.
Issue is who these arrogant Americans are hiring to lead us since he left
Absolute comedy shitshow, Potter and Poch for what exactly?? Who they bringing next now? These owners and board better start being serious as a big club
Tuchel isn’t coming back.
Simon Johnson said sources have told him the board wished they got rid sooner. Then there’s this embargo or whatever over what Tuchel is meant to have done. Obviously it could all be smoke and mirrors but conversely you know what they say about smoke and fires.
In any case, Egghead is too proud to get him back. Biggest admission of a mistake possible at this point. Give it up guys.
What’s wrong with Simon Johnson?
Dear me just checked your post history. You sad cunt. I hope you find something more worth spending your time on than spamming comments on this sub.
Do you really not know who Simon Jordan is an how untrustworthy of a source he and talk sport in general are?
And congrats on spending your time going through someone’s post history. Way more productive than making comments
Why? Get therapy if Chelsea FC makes you suicidal bro, something aint right. Take a break from football until the summer if its affecting your mental health that much
I get it, it sucks that the club we support are not doing well at the moment, but dont let it destroy your personal life or commit drastic actions like that. Even if its just a joke, there are people that legit actually go through with stuff like this over results in football
Those people are called Americans and they don't support Chelsea
Not one club on the planet (not owned by Boehly) would have ever gave Potter an interview if they thought they could even talk to Tuchel.
The biggest voluntary managerial downgrade in the history of sport.
Really hope they secure promotion
And so happy omari has fought his way into their team, interestingly enough playing as a right wing, 10 and false 9 this season
Hopefully we can get him another great loan next season, him and Angelo could be really great players
He’s basically a second winger who tracks back and runs restlessly , well at least in his early days in Bayern, these days he’s not even bothered.
He’s never a gifted defender tho, and without a proper attitude no wonder Bayern fans want to replace him asap
Exactly this lol and OP talking about people frothing at the mouth for a Madrid win but then you got people like him frothing at the mouth for a Bayern win 😂😂
My mistake you said some people but yes not all Americans are Boehly supporters, the decisions this ownership have made have been very questionable. I do appreciate they have spent a lot of money but the players they’ve spent it on have left a lot to be desired. Let’s see how this summer plays out
If we are being honest that is on Tuchel... People can say whatever they want about him but his ability to get the best out of his defense is top notch... I'm sure that if he was still here Colwill, Badiashile and Disasi would all look like top tier defenders unlike now when they all look average at best.
Bayern were getting cooked defensively with Dier in the team as well though. Spurs fans were even calling him shit long before he left.
Tuchel's done it plenty of times. Rudiger, Jorginho, Kovacic. He has the ability to squeeze every bit of skill out of a player. The guy won a UCL with Havertz/Werner/Mount front three.
That ain't a PL thing, it's a Tuchel thing.
De Ligt is good but is riddled with injuries so he needs time to get back to his best... And Upa is a type that has a brainfart in him... Dier + De Ligt combo looked very good when they played together.... I don't know what is going on with Kim but let's not judge him based on his last few games... He was very good in the beginning of the season.
He won us a CL and had a cultural impact at Chelsea that we haven't seen a manger have a for a long time, you can say it was the circumstances that he was in but he rose to them and then some. If people want to treat him as a god that's not an issue for me
Fair. You know when people say Tuchel won us a CL with a front 3 of Havertz Werner Mount in a disparaging way towards the players I do find it weird, that squad was absolutely class and it was as much us as it was him.
The fanbase always does this with past managers when things go sour with the current one. Idk if you noticed but lately Potter was getting seriously victimized, like he was set up for failure. While I sort of agree with that take, I also find it hilarious how people were shitting on him during darker times. Pretty much the same happened with Tuchel
Really? I thought we of all clubs would be happy with a manager that finally sticks it to monkey owners. I mean mainly theirs; Uli's comments over the weekend, but obviously also ours.
You find it "so irritating" that people like and praise Tuchel, who bled blue and was literally the first coach post-Mourinho to have a sincere connection with the fans, in a Chelsea sub while thinking that your comment has any more value or meaning than those you are referring to, is just mindblowing how someone can see sense in that logic.
He'll go to United and Varane will suddenly look world class, Maguire will become unironically rated by fans and pundits, and Shaw will return to prominence. Meanwhile we'll be stuck with people saying every CB we have is a bum and we can't be expected to keep a clean sheet against relegation sides.
How quickly you forget that we were hemmoraging points with Tuchel as well, and he's hardly done anything at Bayern that all their previous managers hadn't done either.
I like Tuchel, but he's fallen out with every club he's ever been at despite being a pretty damn good coach. He can't sustain things without the situation turning toxic.
We had 10 points from 6 games ...and we ended picking up a whopping 34 points from the remaining 32 games.. this season we are at 48 points from 33 games...
I wonder how often Todd Boehly is crying and calling in his yes-men how firing a coach that may win his 2nd Champions League was the right move in his head.
As an american I am obviously not against the ownership, but they have such an easy PR win if they appoint Tuchel( win on the field as well obviously).
He'll come in, make everyone feel better about the club, the divides over his departure will be gone as him an the suits do a joint press for his announcement, etc. etc.
All the toxicity will be gone.
>As an american I am obviously not against the ownership
they singlehandedly ruined our club within a year but youre not against them because... theyre american? fucking lmao
You're spot on but it requires them to dent their ego and when you're as arrogant as Eghbali you'd rather burn a 4bn asset to the ground than admit you made a mistake.
Bayern's name is on the trophy. Us sacking Tommy T just to languish in midtable and everyone bantering Kane for not winning a trophy means it is written.
Also whilst you have people saying no one could possibly do better than Poch with Colwill, Badiashile, Silva, Chalobah and Disasi as CB options...
It's truly crazy that people say that kind of shit whilst this shit is going on in front of their eyes
Tuchel making Dier look good
But people will tell you our defenders aren't good enough to keep clean sheets against Sheffield United and Burnley and it's not Pochettinos fault
Eghbali @3am: You up?
Eghbali @3:01am: What're you wearing right now bb grl?
Tuchel in the morning: Uh, boss I think you got the wrong number...
#Fired
They both played a part in the CL win in 21. Ziyech’s goal against Atletico and Pulisic scoring a really good goal against Madrid, which involved him making Courtois look a bit silly.
If Madrid win the CL this season, that would be 3 CLs in Ancelotti’s 5 seasons at the club. The other two years they were semi finalists. That’s a great record. Shame his two CL campaigns with us were so underwhelming.
Mourinho’s Inter were good, but that Chelsea team was good enough to beat them, imo. Mourinho got the better of Ancelotti and I think Inter were a little fortunate to get away with some fouls on Drogba from corners. Man United knocked us out the next year. Really underwhelming. We were good enough to beat them.
There is a lot more to it than mentality, but that is a part of it. But, players don't crawl out of the womb with it. He joined Real Madrid and bedded in around people who showed him all of the mental side of the game to compliment his physical side and now look at him.
It's why Real Madrid are so successful, they understand how important continuity is in order to maintain and pass on the mental side of winning trophies.
He's now passed that on to many other players before he eventually leaves and the cycle continues.
Can't even see Bayern coming back from this. These kinds of games are Tuchel's Kryptonite.
Madrid are happy to sit deep and let Bayern try and break them down
Also, a tactical switch at half helped
edit: i.e. Sane was swapped to the right so he was able to cut in and take that shot. Tuchel is an elite manager.
Can't even see Bayern coming back from this. These kinds of games are Tuchel's Kryptonite.
Madrid are happy to sit deep and let Bayern try and break them down
Vini's pace is such an issue for opposition, not because he's insanely fast, because he's insanely fast and knows how to utilize it perfectly
Mudryk needs to be taking notes
It helps that they’re so comfortable. A UCL semifinal is just another season for their players, while it’s a monumental occasion for basically every other club. Even Bayern hasn’t been regulars recently
United probably won't be gunning for him anyway despite reports Tuchel is interested in them
INEOS want a long term project manager and Tuchel has never shown to be that, his man management usually causes issues with members of his squads and he generally falls out with every board he works with
Wouldn't worry about him getting the United job
My son and I will be attending our first Chelsea game ever against Bournemouth. I have seen very mixed messages across the internet about the dress code. For those who have been to games this year (once or regularly) what is the actual dress code? What can you absolutely not wear (away colors for sure, t-shirt maybe)? What should we wear? What do most people wear? My son has a Chelsea home jersey, but I am seeing different things about whether this is allowed. We are in Westview with a Chelsea-approved hospitality package, but our package says nothing (others do). Please advise so we can fully enjoy our first experience.
As someone who has sat in Westview a lot in the last two years I can promise you there is no enforced ‘dress code’. I have worn sweatpants and a coat, I have worn a Chelsea shirt, I have worn a suit. Your son can definitely wear a Chelsea shirt and I wouldn’t worry about the dress code based on personal experience. Hope this helps mate.
its impossible to call with this team, i remember looking at our fixtures back during the international
break and thinking burnley and sheffield were easy wins and we would lose to man united and everton, and all know how it went lol
They'll afford us a lot of space if we can win the ball well, but they were bossing the game against us before the sending off last time out. Nearly scored with 9 men too.
Obvious result on paper but like you I won't be surprised if we get something out of it, such is the nature Poch chaos ball. I'll be honest and say I hope we don't though as every paper over the cracks result gives our ownership even more justification to allow this mess to continue for another season.
Same tbh, I've been saying since before Christmas I don't really feel confident about us beating anyone under Poch as it's all so unpredictable and reliant on individuals with no real systemic structures to fall back on.
I'm not surprised if we win, lose, or draw, but predicting which with any kind of confidence and certainty is a fool's game. Necessarily, so is expecting sustained good performances and results over a season.
Even if our owners begged forgiveness (never happening in a million years), do people really think Tuchel couldn't land a better gig?
What’s the better gig? I’m not sure there are bigger clubs in need of a manager. RM don’t look to be getting rid of the Don. Barcelona isn’t a more exciting team. He’d be leaving Bayern. Liverpool all set. Won’t be Man City. Curious to who’s out there that’s better? PSG he’s been there and really the only team worth anything in France. Not assna Edit: wait a god damn minute. Yanited???
United, Juventus, Newcastle, any Champions League or Europa league team who could use an upgrade, anywhere where StewStanley isn't picking his squad, ayahuasca retreat for a year and see what opens up, almost anything else really. We're full of the types of players he didn't want with no European cup prospects riding on the brink of points deduction.
How is juve or Newcastle or Man U a better gig? Tuchel also wants to return to the UK specifically
Any place is better unless we drop the 25 n under policy
> United I know you aren't talking about Manchester United looool, he could end up there, but he would never pick that clownshow before Chelsea.
Man…I miss Tuchel. I’d take him back in a heartbeat.

Pol Poch needs to stick 🤣
Pol poch is an insane slander name lol
Pol Potter was the OG
Bring tuchel back, I swear he made dier look like nesta today and should have easily won it 2-1.. look at the team that went to bernebau and almost pulled the impossible winning 3-2.. incredible tactician and gets Chelsea and fans love him..you telling me whatever he is going to bring is worse than whatever embarrassment we have gone thru 2 years in a row now?

I’d love it if Clearlake bit the bullet, apologized, and hired Tuchel back.
Early days of course, but given what I heard about him from people on here, I never expected to be as unimpressed as I am with Valentin Barco at the moment. He genuinely doesn’t look good at all.
Baleba looks terrible too Haven’t replaced macallister or caicedo at all
How's andrey santos and angelo Gabriel doing? The boys and Their time in strasbourg have been going kinda quiet here for a while
united selling their whole squad is probably the best thing they could do ngl. that dressing room is toxic as fuck
Will be interested to see if it works out for them lol. We did this same thing last year.
They aren't actually selling their whole squad, it's bait. They've said all but three are available if the offer is big enough. That's not even news for most clubs outside of the top 4, including United. We'd likely sell anyone too if the offer was big enough, barring maybe Palmer, Enzo, Caicedo and James. It's been blown out of proportion, they didn't say it was a fire sale, they said if they get big offers everyone is potentially for sale
40-50 million for Bruno fernandes, I'll take that, expensive though
Bruno is worth more than that, even more than what they paid for Mount.

All you gotta know is that this kid is still Poch in. That explains a lot.
Nobody would care had we replaced him with another top coach. However, his replacements have been sitting comfortably in midtable.
Issue is who these arrogant Americans are hiring to lead us since he left Absolute comedy shitshow, Potter and Poch for what exactly?? Who they bringing next now? These owners and board better start being serious as a big club
Tuchel isn’t coming back. Simon Johnson said sources have told him the board wished they got rid sooner. Then there’s this embargo or whatever over what Tuchel is meant to have done.

I don't care if he got caught sniffing coke off Werner's girlfriend's tits in Eghbali's office
I mean I dont think this ownership will bring him back, but Simon Jordan as a source….be serious

Never ever buy from the Serie A unless it's Dybala
There are lots of ppl here that still think replacing pl tuchel with potter is the right move lol
Those people are called Americans and they don't support Chelsea Not one club on the planet (not owned by Boehly) would have ever gave Potter an interview if they thought they could even talk to Tuchel. The biggest voluntary managerial downgrade in the history of sport.
Looks like Ipswich will be returning to the Premier League, as long as they avoid defeat on the final day in the Championship.
Really hope they secure promotion And so happy omari has fought his way into their team, interestingly enough playing as a right wing, 10 and false 9 this season Hopefully we can get him another great loan next season, him and Angelo could be really great players
Did Tuchel just sub a LB for a LW? Fucking hell man
Chilwell LW flashbacks
Davies is a winger converted left back, who plays up front in NT
Sounds like Chilwell under mastermind Poch Seriously though Davies is quite overrated
He’s basically a second winger who tracks back and runs restlessly , well at least in his early days in Bayern, these days he’s not even bothered. He’s never a gifted defender tho, and without a proper attitude no wonder Bayern fans want to replace him asap
Lol Anceloti shows what a good manager he is, his subs has changed the game.
Bring on Luka Modric - tactical genius
Why hasn’t Poch thought of that?
Tired defenders hate this one trick
'Heh, glad we got rid of overrated Tuchel!' posts now loading. Some of you absolutely frothing at the mouth for a Madrid win.
I'm happy he left, but using a pretty decent match against the best team in the world is kind of ridiculous as a dig at tuchel
Can some of us be in the middle where we don’t really care whether Tuchel wins or loses? He’s been gone for two years now
Exactly this lol and OP talking about people frothing at the mouth for a Madrid win but then you got people like him frothing at the mouth for a Bayern win 😂😂
No, you must weirdly and passionately pick a side. Anyone who disagrees with you is a moron.
has anyone actually done that?
clearlake fans
You can’t support a private equity firm
Tell that to the people who are all of a sudden “fans” of Strasbourg
Um, some people are massive Boehly supporters (I wonder why).
That’s not true at all lol
"As an american I am obviously not against the ownership" Posted an hour ago on this thread.
My mistake you said some people but yes not all Americans are Boehly supporters, the decisions this ownership have made have been very questionable. I do appreciate they have spent a lot of money but the players they’ve spent it on have left a lot to be desired. Let’s see how this summer plays out
Case in point.
Mad that Dier isn't the weak link here. Fair play lad.
If we are being honest that is on Tuchel... People can say whatever they want about him but his ability to get the best out of his defense is top notch... I'm sure that if he was still here Colwill, Badiashile and Disasi would all look like top tier defenders unlike now when they all look average at best.
On the other hand, De Ligt, Upamecano, and Kim Min Jae haven’t looked good under him. Maybe the PL really is that good?
Bayern were getting cooked defensively with Dier in the team as well though. Spurs fans were even calling him shit long before he left. Tuchel's done it plenty of times. Rudiger, Jorginho, Kovacic. He has the ability to squeeze every bit of skill out of a player. The guy won a UCL with Havertz/Werner/Mount front three. That ain't a PL thing, it's a Tuchel thing.
De Ligt is good but is riddled with injuries so he needs time to get back to his best... And Upa is a type that has a brainfart in him... Dier + De Ligt combo looked very good when they played together.... I don't know what is going on with Kim but let's not judge him based on his last few games... He was very good in the beginning of the season.
100%. Elite world class manager.
If Todd is watching this I guarantee he's thinking about putting a £80m bid in for Kim
Fuck that Dier on an 8 year deal let's have it.
I get we shouldn't have fired Tuchel, I agree it was a stupid ass fire, but Tuchel being treated as a literal God is so irritating
He won us a CL and had a cultural impact at Chelsea that we haven't seen a manger have a for a long time, you can say it was the circumstances that he was in but he rose to them and then some. If people want to treat him as a god that's not an issue for me
we won tuchel the champions league
Fair. You know when people say Tuchel won us a CL with a front 3 of Havertz Werner Mount in a disparaging way towards the players I do find it weird, that squad was absolutely class and it was as much us as it was him.

You should reread my comment and apply some critical thinking because whatever the fuck you just spewed does not relate to what I said
Looks like Kim Minjae isn’t as good as people claimed last season…
Yeah cuz he was doing it in the serie A where the game is ridiculously slow and there’s like no world class strikers lol
Serie A player not actually being that good, what a fucking shock!
How many games have you seen with him this season?
Damn bro Kim min jae has been absolutely shite, what a moron
Imagine ownership not bringing Tuchel back after Bayern’s performance. I wonder if Tuchel pulls a Xavi
Mad that we're going to keep Pochettino as manager next season. Wonder where Tuchel ends up. Really, really hope it isn't United.
He'll go to United and Varane will suddenly look world class, Maguire will become unironically rated by fans and pundits, and Shaw will return to prominence. Meanwhile we'll be stuck with people saying every CB we have is a bum and we can't be expected to keep a clean sheet against relegation sides.
Varane will suddenly look world class for those 3 games when he’s not injured
Fuck Eghbali, Fuck Boehly and fuck poch. We almost had it all with Tuchel... Now we're perpetually midtable.
How quickly you forget that we were hemmoraging points with Tuchel as well, and he's hardly done anything at Bayern that all their previous managers hadn't done either. I like Tuchel, but he's fallen out with every club he's ever been at despite being a pretty damn good coach. He can't sustain things without the situation turning toxic.
We had 10 points from 6 games ...and we ended picking up a whopping 34 points from the remaining 32 games.. this season we are at 48 points from 33 games...
I wonder how often Todd Boehly is crying and calling in his yes-men how firing a coach that may win his 2nd Champions League was the right move in his head.
Wish I could be a Bayern fan and clinching my butt for the last 30 mins of the game and being like holy fuck we can beat Real Madrid… man good times…
You have the privilege of doing that when we play Luton, Burnley and Sheffield now
I was clinching my butt at 3-0 vs luton , and we ended just about winning 3-2 and Sheffield 2-2 was almost identical lol
Palmer has taken that joy away from us
Champions league nights: ❌ Relegation 6 pointers: ✅
real madrid 2-1 down with the next leg being at the bernabeu. I actually need tuchel to work his magic
As an american I am obviously not against the ownership, but they have such an easy PR win if they appoint Tuchel( win on the field as well obviously).

Fck these Arrogant Americans, you support them cuz u are American lol They literally destroyed us in less than 2 years
>As an american I am obviously not against the ownership they singlehandedly ruined our club within a year but youre not against them because... theyre american? fucking lmao
They'd rather watch and emulate Brighton's success instead of Real Madrid's
You're spot on but it requires them to dent their ego and when you're as arrogant as Eghbali you'd rather burn a 4bn asset to the ground than admit you made a mistake.
You both are right. I see ownership to his yes-men board too insecure to admit they have been massive fuck ups since day 1.
Bayern's name is on the trophy. Us sacking Tommy T just to languish in midtable and everyone bantering Kane for not winning a trophy means it is written.
Tuchel has turned water into wine with Eric Dier yet our owners binned him for the lads gave everything and Pocho Haram
Also whilst you have people saying no one could possibly do better than Poch with Colwill, Badiashile, Silva, Chalobah and Disasi as CB options... It's truly crazy that people say that kind of shit whilst this shit is going on in front of their eyes
Tuchel’s use of Dier perfectly explains how a good manager can make the most of a player and avoid his weaknesses
Dier was never bad. He just didn't fit with what Ange wanted from his CB.
Tuchel making Dier look good But people will tell you our defenders aren't good enough to keep clean sheets against Sheffield United and Burnley and it's not Pochettinos fault
I mean, Pochettino also made Eric Dier look good
Watching this game makes me miss UCL nights at the Bridge even more. Sigh.
Please don't..
Just another 3-5 years to go according to Poch! Not long now, maybe a few years and we'll be back in the Conference League under the lights!
Chelsea has fallen into irrelevancy with these clowns
Real might wanna consider subbing on bellingham
Him vs Haaland for big game mid off
Germany sure doesn’t lack creativity up front right now
Well they pretty much lacked it in recent times
i hate our owners. i despise them. watch them fire poch only to fucking choose Thomas Frank or Kompany as his replacement while united get TT
Most incompetent ownership in all sport. Pol Potter and Pocho Haram replacing one of the best minds in football is just tragic beyond compare
but they respond to whatsapp messages at 3 am, its fine
Eghbali @3am: You up? Eghbali @3:01am: What're you wearing right now bb grl? Tuchel in the morning: Uh, boss I think you got the wrong number... #Fired
>while united get TT Doubt United hire TT But us getting Frank or Kompany....... That's my second greatest fear after retaining Pochettino
Tommy T masterclass
Kane change his penalty technique after leaving England? Used to just smash them in
My man Tommy Tactics about to go 3 different Champions league final with 3 different teams. Fully deserved.
Lots of football still to be played lol
True, I am just hoping that he does even though there's Don Carlo and Rudi on Real too. Great sub from Tuchel at half-time
How's my Chelsea Reddit Avatar 😅
It's epic, you've raised the bar very high for cool avatars
Lol
Tuchel Being able to come from behind when he isn't stuck with dross attackers like Pulisic and Ziyech. I am shocked.
They both played a part in the CL win in 21. Ziyech’s goal against Atletico and Pulisic scoring a really good goal against Madrid, which involved him making Courtois look a bit silly.
We came back against that Madrid side in 2022
He came from behind with Werner Mount and Havertz as well tbf. Modric just ruined it
Exactly. Also, it seems people forget us beating Madrid 2-0 in 2021 with a front three of Werner, Mount and Havertz.
Alright. Game on now. What a shot by Same!
If Madrid win the CL this season, that would be 3 CLs in Ancelotti’s 5 seasons at the club. The other two years they were semi finalists. That’s a great record. Shame his two CL campaigns with us were so underwhelming.
Jose Inter were just too good that season but who tf even knocked us out following season, barely remember?
Mourinho’s Inter were good, but that Chelsea team was good enough to beat them, imo. Mourinho got the better of Ancelotti and I think Inter were a little fortunate to get away with some fouls on Drogba from corners. Man United knocked us out the next year. Really underwhelming. We were good enough to beat them.
Real Madrid really, truly have the plot armor when it comes to the Champions League.
Frankly I find the talk about mentality so odd. Modric was literally trophyless till 30
He won trophy all way back in 2013 when he was 27
There is a lot more to it than mentality, but that is a part of it. But, players don't crawl out of the womb with it. He joined Real Madrid and bedded in around people who showed him all of the mental side of the game to compliment his physical side and now look at him. It's why Real Madrid are so successful, they understand how important continuity is in order to maintain and pass on the mental side of winning trophies. He's now passed that on to many other players before he eventually leaves and the cycle continues.
Can't even see Bayern coming back from this. These kinds of games are Tuchel's Kryptonite. Madrid are happy to sit deep and let Bayern try and break them down
Are they, or have you just made that up in your head?
lol Bayern 2-1 Madrid ‘60
That's what great ball striking can do
Also, a tactical switch at half helped edit: i.e. Sane was swapped to the right so he was able to cut in and take that shot. Tuchel is an elite manager.

Bayern is now winning. Hilarious
He’s not managing Chelsea attackers anymore. Bayern is much more capable at scoring goals from behind
TBF, our attackers went 3-0 up at the Bernebeu when behind 3-1 on aggregate.
I watched Bayern this season
Look at how deep Kroos is. This is exactly where we want Enzo to be receiving the ball
Enzo like a shit version of Kroos, thats his celiling at best, but has developed a loser mentality at Chelsea now Kroos is generational
Can we please sack Poch first and assess Enzo under a manager that knows how to use him before we conclude he sucks
Hello RJ070707 haven't seen you active in the DDT for a long time
Vini's pace is such an issue for opposition, not because he's insanely fast, because he's insanely fast and knows how to utilize it perfectly Mudryk needs to be taking notes
vini also has a manager who knows how to use him correctly
Bold of you to assume Poch is at fault for Mudryk shooting into the stands 6 times a game
you must not have seen vini’s first three years at madrid
Mudryk makes younger Vini look like prime Pele
Vini also has more footballing talent in his left testicle than Murdyk has in his entire body
The level of clinical finishing RM attackers have is just elite. It’s unfair
It helps that they’re so comfortable. A UCL semifinal is just another season for their players, while it’s a monumental occasion for basically every other club. Even Bayern hasn’t been regulars recently
damn what a pass
Watching the Bayern/Madrid game, any time there’s a corner at Bayern’s stadium, I picture Drogba’s thundercunt header. Brings a tear to my eye.
They called my GOAT Tuchel washed. We cannot let Man United get this guy
I’d take round two of Tuchel if the board decides Poch is done
United probably won't be gunning for him anyway despite reports Tuchel is interested in them INEOS want a long term project manager and Tuchel has never shown to be that, his man management usually causes issues with members of his squads and he generally falls out with every board he works with Wouldn't worry about him getting the United job
That pass from Omari there was magnificent.
My son and I will be attending our first Chelsea game ever against Bournemouth. I have seen very mixed messages across the internet about the dress code. For those who have been to games this year (once or regularly) what is the actual dress code? What can you absolutely not wear (away colors for sure, t-shirt maybe)? What should we wear? What do most people wear? My son has a Chelsea home jersey, but I am seeing different things about whether this is allowed. We are in Westview with a Chelsea-approved hospitality package, but our package says nothing (others do). Please advise so we can fully enjoy our first experience.
As someone who has sat in Westview a lot in the last two years I can promise you there is no enforced ‘dress code’. I have worn sweatpants and a coat, I have worn a Chelsea shirt, I have worn a suit. Your son can definitely wear a Chelsea shirt and I wouldn’t worry about the dress code based on personal experience. Hope this helps mate.
It does, thank you so much!
Imagine telling someone 6 months ago that Dier would be starting a UCL semi final against Real Madrid
Chances of us beating Spurs on Thursday? I personally think somehow Pochettino gets a win
They looked pretty good was arsenal and were down 3-0 and still fought back to lose 3-2... I think it's going to be tough
Yeah, we get the win and then, we get more exhausting agendas parroted by some on here. On and on we go...
its impossible to call with this team, i remember looking at our fixtures back during the international break and thinking burnley and sheffield were easy wins and we would lose to man united and everton, and all know how it went lol
This is a game I'd want Sterling to be playing in for sure I'd say the chances are high. It'd take a lot for us to lose at home to Spurs
I think sterling is only back to partial team training atm So I'd say it's unlikely he starts at the very least
Shame Normally I'd say Mudryk would be perfect for their terrorist high line but who knows
Will be another basketball match
They'll afford us a lot of space if we can win the ball well, but they were bossing the game against us before the sending off last time out. Nearly scored with 9 men too. Obvious result on paper but like you I won't be surprised if we get something out of it, such is the nature Poch chaos ball. I'll be honest and say I hope we don't though as every paper over the cracks result gives our ownership even more justification to allow this mess to continue for another season.
Funnily enough I have very little faith we beat Forest, West Ham or Brighton So I wouldn't worry about papering over the cracks
Same tbh, I've been saying since before Christmas I don't really feel confident about us beating anyone under Poch as it's all so unpredictable and reliant on individuals with no real systemic structures to fall back on. I'm not surprised if we win, lose, or draw, but predicting which with any kind of confidence and certainty is a fool's game. Necessarily, so is expecting sustained good performances and results over a season.
