Oh yes, and the 4-3 game .

Have no sympathy for utds injuries (bad like ours) when ours repeatedly get ignored during our struggles this season.

Imagine nkunku fufilled half his potential this season and palmer maintained the levels.

Would have been nice to see:

Jackson Nkunku Palmer

We've been better than Utd this season so hopefully the table starts to reflect that. Difference is they've had huge dollops of luck in so many games whereas we've had very little.

I heard theyve lost 13 games this season and its some sort of record for them. It should be closer to 20.
Games like the wolves game early on. Bournemouth game and others i've seen theyve been second best throughout the whole game

United have far bigger problems than us, that's been evident for awhile. Say what you want about our players & owners & the lack of quality, but there's a desire to succeed as one here (it's only the fans who aren't on-board yet, understandably) that just isn't at United atm.

That's a club that could actually benefit from our owners cos they need a hard reset, Ineos are making noises that it's coming but words & actions are very different things. Any team that plays as a unit can beat them, the mentality in the group is fractured with too many individuals looking out for #1 - it's why they win games with moments. The only time I recall them looking like a team in ages was Solskjaer's interim spell.

Will be interesting to see if Ineos/Radcliffe changes the mentality from the top, which I'm a huge believer in with any workforce. It could act like Levy being the face of ENIC, i.e. a fan of the club masking a soulless corporation only interested in milking the asset.

Spoke to an idiot the other day who I wish I never spoke to but has started my work. Utd fan.
Guy said he'd take palmer from chelsea and that was it.

I said James/Dalot and he said dalot is better I ended the conversation there and then.

Sources close to the club talk about underwhelming training methods at Chelsea under Mauricio Pochettino.

[@SJohnsonSport]

Mauricio Pochettino appears to have the support of the Chelsea dressing room. The brand of football is getting better and more entertaining. Neither Thomas Tuchel or Clearlake want a reunion. (via @TheAthleticFC)

trouble is with southern utd fans, their football knowledge is atrocious and invariably don't even watch football

If someone i work with down south says they support utd i immediatley switch off

Tbh when you hear that sort of garbage it just makes you realise how many injuries we've had. If both James and Nkunku had been able to play all season then everyone would be talking about them as two of the hottest properties in the PL. Sadly most fans have forgotten they're even there.

james is a problem, he might be one to leave in the summer

I said James/Dalot and he said dalot is better I ended the conversation there and then.
--------------------------------------------------------------
People sleep on both players. If James wasn't made of glass he'd be a top 3 RB in the world easy, people have just forgotten how good he is.

And Dalot is mad underrated in general. Heard he got spitroasted yesterday but that's rare, unremarkable but solid & reliable. If I was in charge of a United squad revolution, he's 1 of 6-7 players max I wouldn't be actively looking to sell.

Always a great laugh when people accuse Chelsea (and City) fans of being gloryhunters.

The #1 club in England for gloryhunters is United and they're so far ahead it's not even funny

I thought we were fairly even earlier in the season but the difference being that United always seemed to somehow find a goal even when poor.

United finished 3rd last season and should have used that as a foundation to push on but they have regressed massively imo. Dumped out of the CL in a lightweight group and can't really say their league performances have been particularly outstanding (from the admittedly limited number of games i've seen them play) even though they have got results.

Don't think their recruitment has addressed their most pressing holes in the squad either.

As for Gary Neville , never take any notice of anything he says with regards to management or how to run a club when you look at his laughable record in positions at Valencia and involvement with Salford (hows that going Gary?)

Modern fans of all clubs are a little delusional. Watched baby Pool fans say they would have Darwin over Pool Torres

🚨 BREAKING: Chelsea are in talks for Estevao and are confident of completing a deal. (@MarioCortegana @liam_twomey)

£25 million upfront plus performance based payments

Estevão would be eligible to play for Chelsea in April 2025. Expected to remain on loan at Palmeiras until then.

So Estevao Willian and Kendry Paez to join us in 2025.

Very true. When you look at most pundits these days it's like a who's who of failed football managers.

Sometime I wish Mourinho would call it a day & embrace punditry. He was really good at it.

I think because of the respect he commands he was unintentionally great at developing conversations rather than creating standoffs of opposing views.

ur boner is showing

Just think if Boehly hires him, the four of us could have an 0rgy

In

🚨 Armando Broja is set to leave Chelsea this summer. Several clubs in Europa and England are already interested. (@FabrizioRomano) #CFC

🚨 Estevao : Chelsea want to pay £25m+ add ons, however Palmerias want £34m + add ons reaching £60m. Bayern Munich are also expected to table a bid. Some optimism inside Chelsea this can get done. (@JacobsBen @edu17burgos) #CFC
