I read a very different article to that outline that their as owner/head coach relationship broke down. https://theathletic.com/3576054/2022/09/08/tuchel-sacking-chelsea-potter?source=user-shared-article Maybe that route or job in overseas He's been good for Brighton this season. Maybe someone who develop and learnt his game better as he got older

Coventry were attacking us and pushing us back. Let's not forget that Coventry's equaliser was handball and Preston's goal was very lucky deflection shot. Plus Hedges should have scored. Those are the facts

It's was tongue in cheek comment cos it's a mess there. If Pochettino gets the job then I can see improving on this season massively Tuchel's relationship with the new Chelsea owners had hit rock bottom so after that only 1 winner there and its not Tuchel. I don't think Lampard failed in his spells at Derby or Chelsea 1st spell. Think his 1st season at Chelsea was good given the club was in transfer embargo

Well we just have agree to disagree here Did the right thing against Coventry and Preston by bringing on another centre back? Preston had 4 strikers on the pitch so it's natural you want an extra centre back on the pitch

I just don't think it would have work. Suits them more than us. Who would he come on for? BBD? JRC? We have created chances in games but also he would help us attacking wise with his movement and link up play hence created more chances. Like I said I think overall play as improve since the World Cup break in terms of passing and more comfortably as possession based team

keep Szmodics in the 10 role

Massive squad. Alot of work in summer for them sort us for new manager and sporting directors plus a new keeper and striker signing. Good luck to them He wreck his management career now. TV pundit and England/Chelsea ambassador. He's not to blame for Chelsea mess but club need direction and sensible approach/management from the summer onwards

Playing it long to an Ayala for example would have suited their defenders like Bradley. What was need was runs in between their defenders and behind to turn the defence and causes more problems. Defenders like Bradley don't want to runners in behind them Also how would set the team up formation and players wise then if this is your suggestion?

The keeper and 2 centre defenders and ball playing midfielder have to decide when it right to play out and not.

Chelsea picked the wrong front 3 tonight. Should have picked Havertz, Felix and Mudryk instead. Aubameyang isn't good enough for PL level. did nothing all night apart from take the kick offs. Chelsea need to sort out quickly who they want as their next head coach and announced it. Might just settle everything down.

at least he is consistent 🤔

so you want to move your in form player in Szmodics out wide for Dack to play in the 10 role? Will Dack made the runs that Szmodics does? Would you extend Dack contract for next season and beyond? When teams are pressing you so high and close you don't play out like City didn't against Arsenal last Wednesday night?

Yes putting the ball into the box from corners instead of short ones too many times. Also it was good delivery and good run and header by Carter. It would be interest to see how you would have set up with Leonard and Ayala with Thomas wide so I guess you would have still have Dack and Szmodics on the pitch? So how would you have set up considering the players you wanted on the pitch? How much is that down to quality striker tho? a out and out striker would better runs, run in behind the defenders creating spaces, etc

my team Pears JRC Carter Hyam Pickering Travis Wharton Thomas Szmodics Hedges Gallagher/Leonard depends if Gallagher is fit enough to start or not, if so start him don't think so. I think Sky Sports will another championship, which they haven't decided yet. Sky has picked 2 league 1 games and 2 league 2 games already but only 1 championship game so far.

Like others have said our performances have been good and we just lacking that quality striker/finisher to finish it off. I have found at times our attacking play when we play with quick tempo and short passing entertaining and what I want to see more of. Also I like the Coventry game cos how Carter and Hyam stopped their star striker and control the game against top 6 rival until their keeper handball in the goal Exactly and its been my point for most of the season then we play quick tempo short passing football teams can't cope with him. I want to see more of this going forward and next season. Time to back JDT with some quality signings 1000% agree totally agree to do what? Leonard shown what we need someone to run into the channel/behind their centre backs and turn their back line. Bringing on Ayala would suited their defenders like Bradley

He deffo shown lack of effort and work rate isn't there plus poor touches or passes yesterday. If he is still struggling with an injury then don't play him but his performance at PNE was probably his best game in weeks/months We had asking price and teams could made offers which including players or add on's. Didn't Seville bid 8.4 million for him? Blackburn star Ben Brereton Diaz wanted by Sevilla again but Spaniards only willing to pay half of £20m transfer fee | The Sun Its seem PL teams weren't willing to offer what or near what we want

how many have actually renewed already?

a team playing to specific tactics and style of play, better passing and movement,

Like I said I judge the season with what I have seen through watching every game. If you just want to focus on the table but I haven't.

I like Travis and I would keep him and Hyam as our 2 captains If he performs well and he starts. All down to performances and form for me I would if you are going to play to his strengths and sign a strikers that suit his game

I think we have improve on last season and I just based that on the same things as you but what I see watching every game not just basing it stats I don't think we have regressed this season and now we need to make the right signings this summer and I would like them done early part of the summer

People complained season after season that we wait too long to find out what our budget so next season we already know what the budget and hopefully can get our transfer business done early this summer or vast majority of it. very few quality free transfers available the January window closes I think he is actually old fashion winger who need people in the boxes and if we had the quality striker like Undav from January onwards then I think you would have seen Thomas have more of an impact

we do created chances tho. Totally agree Far too focus on who is captain for me. More than happy with Travis and Hyam. We have bigger problems then who the captain is for next season We lack that Quality striker that we lack since January if we had that then we would have already got playoff place if not challenge Sheffield United for 2nd place. We are possession based team who control the game and looks to get into the right area but remain patient with it. We played some good stuff at times and its good to watch.

Szmodics has been head and shoulders above BBD and even if everything doesn't come off he still puts a shift in does BBD do that?

I suspected that at the end of the season JDT, GB and Travis will give interviews to Rovers TV and local media. Phillips warmed up with the team as 19th man just in case someone gets injured in the warm up he has doing the warm ups. Its happened all season Lets wait and see.
