It was said by Potter's assistant Bruno Saltor in a press conference when he was the acting manager for a few days prior to Lampard coming back.From what came out it seemed like Potter was basically in agreement that he should go? I'm sure I read that somewhere, likely The Athletic.
Sure, he gets in over Eriksen, as does Enzo, but he doesn't get in over Casemiro.Kovacic would be a huge improvement in our midfield.
There'll inevitably be a sale this summer of a few of their older stars. If we're savvy, we should be able to pick up Kovacic for a very reasonable price.
If you wanted to play 3-4-3 then sure. I think this looks better though:Rashford-Felix-Martial
Chilwell-Casemiro-Enzo-James
Martinez-Silva-Varane
DDG
I'd have Felix as the 10 behind that front two. Casemiro / Enzo would be up there with the best CM pairings in world football - think a team like this with that many runners would score bags of goals. Chilwell over Shaw for me as a LWB - but if it's a 4ATB then I'd go Shaw.
Eh maybe - but speaking from experience I much prefer to have James in threatening positions in the final third than Sterling!If you wanted to play 3-4-3 then sure. I think this looks better though:
Rashford - Martial - Sterling

I mean if there's one thing we still have over you lot this season it's defense.If you wanted to play 3-4-3 then sure. I think this looks better though:
Rashford - Martial - Sterling

Man Utd Sainz isn’t very reliable is he?
I personally would not pay much attention to what he writes about Barcelona.Man Utd Sainz isn’t very reliable is he?
I have noticed him before. He’s like a tabloid gossip whisperer.I personally would not pay much attention to what he writes about Barcelona.
My opinion is that Barcelona will be able to renew Gavi, Araujo, Balde and still make 4-5 signings (mainly players who finish their contract).I have noticed him before. He’s like a tabloid gossip whisperer.
What’s the deal with Gavi anyway? Do you think you’ll be able to resolve his contract situation?
someone else reported it first the other day. it won't happen though , they tend to end up stayingMan Utd Sainz isn’t very reliable is he?
Antony over Sterling surely? I mean I know the jury is out on Antony for many but Sterling's been plain shiteIf you wanted to play 3-4-3 then sure. I think this looks better though:

I think Sterling would quite likely have contributed more than Antony if we'd had him on the right this season. Antony has been good in his last two or three games tbfAntony over Sterling surely? I mean I know the jury is out on Antony for many but Sterling's been plain shite
I mean the club basically wrote this season off when they brought in Lampard on a part time gig so the players are just following that lead. Like us under Ragnick (but worse) Chelsea just need the season to endPalace were 8-9 points behind when they sacked Potter. They are now trailing by only 3 points.
I was wrong. Should've just let Potter see out the season and then decide where to go from there. At least they controlled some games.
Nah he wouldn't, he's not a RW for startersI think Sterling would quite likely have contributed more than Antony if we'd had him on the right this season. Antony has been good in his last two or three games tbf
Wtf? Antony has been decent to good. Sterling has been utter pants. I'm sure he'll improve next season but Antony has unquestionably had a much better season.I think Sterling would quite likely have contributed more than Antony if we'd had him on the right this season.

0 set structure, terrible attackers, James looks terrible physically. Add all of it up and you get a fragile, sort of toothless team. Bringing in Lampard was idiotic though, he's a terrible manager that has proved that time and again and isn't even someone that can be a reliable caretaker.Why are Chelsea so bad? Absolutely outplayed at home today.

Unlikely seeing their remaining fixture and how they even play worse under Lampard.Will they get more points than the 2015/16 season (50)?
Chelsea are an extremely dysfunctional team, we aren't anymore.Wtf? Antony has been decent to good. Sterling has been utter pants. I'm sure he'll improve next season but Antony has unquestionably had a much better season.
Doesn't change the fact that Sterling has looked gash since leaving City's prim little set-up. He absolutely doesn't offer the defensive output that Antony gives us, either.Chelsea are an extremely dysfunctional team, we aren't anymore.
They had 44 points with a +8 goal difference after 31 games that season. Currently at same stage of the season: 39 points and -3 GD. So while they could get more points than then, so far it's been worse.Will they get more points than the 2015/16 season (50)?
Is that something like 4 games in 6 months?Chelsea won 4 out of last 22 league games. That’s astonishing. Boehly is a true legend.
Bizarre postBrighton deserve a CL spot. They have been the 3rd best team this season, just a little unlucky with a few results. They beat Chelsea handily because they are simply better.
Southampton have done the double over Chelsea this season and they're bottom. It's more how bad Chelsea are.Brighton deserve a CL spot. They have been the 3rd best team this season, just a little unlucky with a few results. They beat Chelsea handily because they are simply better.
I think the focus here is how bad Chelsea is. It is underestimating Brighton don't you think? They have been great and easy on the eye unlike Newcastle.Bizarre post
