6 good centre backs on Chelsea's books, will he even get a game ?

I thought the same. 

I’m not going to pretend I didn’t want to be in the conference league because any European football would have been beneficial to this squad. 
 

That said, us not being in it and I assume Chelsea dropping from the Europa to that isn’t exactly the end of the world.

Big European push next season. 

DCL as an Isak backup seems pretty good to be assuming the rumours about Wilson leaving are true. 
 

Bowen would be absolutely perfect for us but it’s never happening for a price that would be worth it. 

If you look at how momentum works in football, Leicester the most obvious example, is, Chelsea are absolutely mental to sack him given their upturn. Finally get their shit together and look like they have a plan then they sack their manager 

Not sure why it irritates me so much but I’m canny miffed Chelsea are going to finish above us. 

Canny bored of Chelsea. 

Feel a bit less confident now I’ve seen the lineup. I was hoping for at least one of Schar, Joelinton, Barnes to be back in the side. 

I think yesterday’s performance is why he’s never progressed from being a squad player. He’s got good games in him, he can’t contribute at times but he’s always got that performance in him that isn’t good enough for the league. 
 

I think we’ll keep him and he’ll do a job as a squad player but it again highlights the transfer failing over the last couple of windows not signing a proper right winger. 

OMG THE HOSSSS

Omg I thought he’d done it 

Joselu-lu-lu 

Kane should score 

That’s a bit Joelinton v Gabriel to me 

Can’t cancel that surely 

I know Kane was never known for his speed but he really looks a step behind at times now.

It's easy to see why their fans want Moyes gone...

I used to get so bored of other fans telling us we were lucky to have Pardew because of that European finish. Same shit applies to Moyes. Scraping wins in between hammerings and awful football isn’t fun.

Would play him in that right wing position for the rest of the season. He’s limited, he’s a squad player but I guarantee he gets more g/a contributions than Almiron who’s currently stealing a living here. 

Doing that irritating thing people do by quoting themselves to prove a point. 
 

Buy a proper RW in the summer and Murphy is a more than capable backup. For all his hard work Miggy isn’t a player that’s going to result in us winning enough games. 

How many chances do Dortmund want. 

De Zerbi’s hype train really fell off didn’t it. 

What a fucking weasel this guy is 

Would have preferred Hall and Livra back in but you can’t argue too much with that 11 I guess. 

Anyone whinging if we lose this with the squad we have available needs shooting. 
 

Hoping for at least a draw.

At 19 Steve Howey was a Centre forward, Rob Lee was a winger, Andy Carroll was a left back and most of this board were virgins.

Andy Carroll was a left back? 

I haven’t been paying too close attention but is Antony quitely having a bit of a redemption arc? He seems to be contributing a lot more now (I know he gave away the pen before someone mentions it).

Despite injuries team looks fairly well balanced. Still think this may be a tough ask tonight 

Came to post this. I might be massively wrong here and at first glance it looks worrying but there’s potential good balance to that side. 
 

Huge games for Hall and Anderson.
