Also, not a great look potentially burning bridges in his native country. Likely weighed up the very real risk of relegation which would have surely seen him want to piss off back home in a hurry. I wonder what the prospective managers are being told in regards to available funds for transfers in January, why can't they leak that to the press instead of all this other harmful stuff...

Good post. Could this be the week when CT can rightly say he is getting the hang of this forum lark?

The biggest worry is not from losing this game, it's from barely being able to string two passes together and most of our players appearing to have the composure of Boumsong or Peter Ramage or BUJ7 on the ball. -
The treatment of Nuno as well as Daniel Levy in general won't make their next appointment straightforward. If we weren't where we are on the table you'd say in many respects managing here would be a more enticing prospect.

In all honesty it may not be that much of an impediment. Of course it will be a deterrent to many players, but to others that are young and coming through the ranks a season in the championship with guaranteed time on the pitch the time to adjust to life in England would work. Likewise for the right manager it would form the ideal platform for implementing their system. Of course there is no guarantee of promotion, and we don't know what is in our players contracts relating to relegation but you would have to imagine that we would be capable of securing automatic promotion.

For the record and to my surprise Fernandez's exclusions from this game and the Palace one were tactical. Jones favours Clark and Krafth in defense over him, and also over Schar. He chose Schar for the bench spot as he sees him as more versatile. Based on everything I've seen I'd have a fit Fede as the first choice defender. Not only do I believe that he is our most consistent defender but he's also one of the best on the ball and generally doesn't make many errors. But what would I know. -

I know it's the reality of our team, particularly against this opposition, but man this is a tough watch. -

Well the wheels have fallen off. Dubravka back in next up. -

It is nice, though there's still a fragility about it. Absolutely spot on regarding Longstaff. He's turned 24 today, should be able to get about the pitch a bit more than Newcastle era Geremi. -

It's absolutely a foul, in his defense if the ref was looking at the ball he wouldn't have seen the contact. It was the other Chelsea player who won the ball after St Max started falling which may have looked a fair challenge. -

Absolutely no need to worry about that, we're not owned by Mike anymore. ASM just barged over from behind there, not sure how the ref could have missed it. -

I think I saw us string two passes together, a treat. -

Matt Ritchie is not someone you want on a yellow prior to his requisite bad tackle. -

Pretty good defensive line there, hope we can maintain it. -

To counter the hate I'm going to go with Daniel Craig. -

Wise choice. Graeme Jones reminds me of a cross between Mr Bean and someone else whom I haven't quite yet figured out. -

I mean we barely had 20% of the ball in a match that we absolutely bullshitted a point from and here we are with the same team. Meanwhile Chelsea on the back of a 7-0 win make three changes -

Last week he said Krafth and Fraser trained well, which is one thing, but did he not see our last match? No reason for either to be in the side. -

Krafth and Fraser still in there after poor performances last start. Fraser is a poor defender from what I've seen and doesn't cover much ground, Krafth is just not up to much. Going to watch anyway but this is shaping to be a very dire affair.
