Ibime: I remember the 15/16 season. Poor preseason, and everything went left. |

nateevs:Yep @ bolded. This has always been my stance. What I fail to understand is this - even if a coach tells the fitness manager to relax the intensity, there is still the minimum required of every player and unless they are not even doing the minimum then problem is even bigger. Besides, Boli hired all sorts of coaches to boost the overall performance of the team. What happened to that? The other question is this - Is Brighton now a top team? They outplayed us in every single department and not just on fitness level, they played some orgasmic purposeful football. If this is a fitness related issue, then there is no hope against Real Madrid. |

According to The Times, Todd Boehly asked the Chelsea players [after losing to Brighton] why they were not performing to the standard their transfer fees and reputations suggested they should be capable of. |

Thibaut Courtois: “Honestly, I don’t understand how Chelsea are failing in the Premier League. They have players of a world level who are able to achieve success — although I hope the bad run continues on Tuesday. Chelsea maybe in crisis but they are always a difficult rival." |

FBS:Q[code][/code] Fitness issue? We were 4th best at chances converted last season & we got way worse this season. The squad is bloated with unhappy players (senior mostly) & potter didn't help matters with his mediocre tactics . Everything is just wrong at the moment & it's all poor planning. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by A001: 9:31am On Apr 18, 2023 |
Amoto94:Insightful analysis. If Boli can get it right with appointing a manager and allowing him to do his job, Chelsea can improve dramatically next season. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by A001: 9:33am On Apr 18, 2023 |
The Madrid game is on the horizon. Hopefully, our players give us their A-game. We know say coach no dey |

nateevs: Lampard is looking for excuses to cover up his ineptness. Distance covered doesn't mean anything or correlate to performance or league position. The best teams usually cover the less distance. Teams distance covered 2022/23 (back in November ) Team Distance (km) Spurs 1,683.9 Leicester 1,656.8 Southampton 1,647.8 Newcastle 1,644.1 AFC Bournemouth 1,635.1 Brentford 1,632.3 West Ham 1,630.6 Everton 1,626 Fulham 1,589.5 Nott'm Forest 1,584.9 Aston Villa 1,570.6 Wolves 1,562.1 Leeds 1,562.1 Man City 1,552.6 Liverpool 1,537.6 Arsenal 1,526.7 Man Utd 1,486.7 Brighton 1,484.2 Chelsea 1,466.4 Crystal Palace 1,438.5 That indicate it is possible to play smart and let the ball do the running. This is what we are struggling with. Lampard should keep shut. 6 Likes |

Amoto94:Quite insightful, tuchel came and was able to set up the team in a way which hide their flaws and the team played well. Everyone thought getting a striker in the summer would have solved our goal scoring problem but it rather created other problems. Lukaku's profile didn't just fit into the system( couldn't press) and this is where I think Tuchel's problems at Chelsea started. He was a good tactician( never wanted him sacked and will still take him back in an heartbeat) but most of his transfer decisions were poor. Boehly cannot also be exempted in how we found ourselves in this terrible situation, if he knew he was going to revamp the teams scouting and transfer network, why sack the manager and then replace him with a total fraud? 1 Like |

Imagine in April barely a month to the end of the most grueling football season ever seen a coach is saying players are not fit? After 8months of football plus world cup between Assuming they weren't fit in 1month pre season so 10 months of football is not enough? Some of them went to the world cup and did well for their country, they played multiple internationals yet we are to believe they are not fit in April when other coaches are complaining of player fatigue There is no excuse a clueless coach will not come up with sha 7 Likes 1 Share |

Capaldi: Two things here. 1. Not even Lampard is saying it is 'only' a fitness issue. He said there is a fitness issue which is a huge contributing factor to our lack lustre performances. That's not to say there are no other issues. The video posted by Amoto is a combination of several issues posted by several of us at different times on here. All this are contributing issues as well and Lampard has not said they are not. One of the most dangerous decisions by Potter is killing the directness, pressing intensity and combative strength that a forward line of Mudryk, Fofana, and Madueke could have brought. Instead sticking with ninnies like Felix, Havertz and Sterling....even worse, playing them all together time after time. To dig ourselves out of this mess, we need players who can get stuck in and fight. Park the bus, and play on the counter if you will......unfortunately, all the players who can do that have barely played all season.....and sorry, you cannot fix that with just 8 games to go. 2. I think this is wrong application of stats. Distance covered as at November, in a world cup year tells nothing. I want to see the stats as at last week to make meaningful assessments of your position. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Amoto94: Very decent analysis, but shied away from criticising Lampard, because the 70-80% of the recommended changes could theoretically be implemented tonight if Lpard wasn't such a terrible coach 1 Like |

kingBolton:Boli. Boli and Boli again. Plus a little of the British obviously. haha. The man single handedly destroyed the season for reasons best known to him. But season ain't over yet. We will find out very soon. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by FBS: 11:54am On Apr 18, 2023 |
Amoto94:Insightful video though I am not convinced about the false 9 thing. We definitely need a striker. |

Skimpledawg:So the mountain wey you go, you no see anything positive there? There is always hope bro until the final whistle. Even when I say there is no hope, there is still hope. That has always been my default mode. |
Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Champions Of Europe 2021 by FBS: 11:58am On Apr 18, 2023 |
raumdeuter:Na the thing wey I no understand be that. Like fitness should be on the list of issues. The players just look lost and have no idea what to do. Why Boli waited this long is anyone's guess. |

More of this. You can't be collecting 300k and be playing poorly like Loftus Cheek.

My EPL best XI of the season, picking the attack was really challenging for me, would have opt in for 424 if an option to choose formation was included. Picked saka ahead of martinelli was another challenge too. Salah or Kane deserve a place if I choose 424 formation.
