My personal feelings on BlueCo and management of the club are these:
1) Winstanley and Eghbali CANNOT continue interfering in team selections. This is part of a culture of protecting player values over results and its acutely damaging to the club's status and success.
As a teacher, noticing more and more that critical thinking is bring drummed out of people. Obsession with exams means young people are hyper focused on right and wrong answers and have almost completely lost the art of critical thought and debate
Dusting off the protest boots...
Exclusive: Chelsea owner’s company resold Premier League tickets at inflated prices.
Tickets for matches for all PL clubs - apart from Chelsea - were offered by website but that access now removed after The Times contacted Clearlake.

This is the template. It was ropey first half but put Palmer with two ball winners in midfield and in time itll look v good.
We should be talking about Alonso's tactics. Got things wrong v Spurs, changed for Liverpool to 4-3-3 with Caicedo-Lavia-Henderson midfield, it was okay. Home to ManU kept same shape with Palmer-Caicedo-Lavia behind Estêvão-Neto-Rogers. Cole played midfield. It worked
@ChelseaFC
It is clear as day Ferrari decided months ago to prioritise Leclercs championship. So many decisions evidence it. Bizarre decision to sign him and position him as a number 2.

Arsenal are by far & away the best in the country
Top Keeper, Defenders who love defending, Midfielders doing the hard yards, strong in both boxes & don’t take risks
4-3-3. Same blueprint as 20 years ago. Nothing’s changed, despite football’s obsession with ‘playing out’ & data
Arsenal STILL getting away with fouls everyone else gets penalised for. Why @prorefofficial??

Fuck the Chelsea booing police. If I’ve paid 60 sheets for a ticket I’ll boo who I like. I’ll even boo the geezer next to me if I don’t like his face or he’s wearing shit trainers.
City fans already seeing what most of us saw too
At the beginning of the transfer window, we were all asking where exactly he was going to play, knowing fully well that we already had 2 AMs in Cherki and Foden.
We had just signed Bouaddi and Anderson, yet we went ahead and spent a whopping £125 million on him. Now that he’s in the team, we still don’t know what his best position is.
He’s horrible at DM, average on CM and at AM, he’s not obviously better than the options we already have.
Full time:
- Game couldve gone either way.
- Won by individual brilliance moments as is often the case in early days of managers
- Lavia incredible today
- Acheampong a nailed starter now
Half time:
- Alonso needs to tell Blueco where to go on Fofana. Think of the now and stop playing him
- Have to stop playing without a 9. It doesnt work
- Cole Palmer needs a massive rocket up his arse. Shit attitude, textbook Blueco over inflated ego with v little to back it atm
Re The Traitors. Yes, its a game. No, its not life or death. But its very real money being donated to very real charities in need and James Acaster screwed other peoples efforts to win that money for their charity because he couldnt say no to the 40k appearance fee. Twat.
This time next year, I want to be watching a Xabi Alonso Chelsea in the Carabao cup where regardless of Bluecos model, players like Gusto and Fofana no longer occupy spaces in the squad. The ONLY solution to Chelseas issues is giving a manager time to build.
This. Alonso isnt perfect. But hes the only grown up in the building Clearlake built. The squad needs a massive overhaul in terms of quality, power, intelligence, durability and maturity and no amount of changing managers will solve that.
I havent ever heard Alan Smith criticise Arsenals lack of creativity. Shithoused their way through games for three years. Think hes mentioned it about Chelsea ten times in one half. @SkySports get this prick away from our games.
Its going to be another night where Chelsea players are allowed to be kicked all over the pitch and a referee totally ignores it
A lot of people I usually agree with, I totally disagree with on Estevao. The kid is brilliant but I suspect Alonso thinks hes too lightweight and immature and lacks fundamentals. Hes not playing for a reason and whatever that reason is must be a good one.
