Draw really. Keep as many teams in the dogfight as possible.

Really weird first performance from Chelsea under Tuchel. Pretty much passed it among themselves in their own half for 90 minutes

He’s been dreadful, but he’ll get a completely clean slate under whoever replaces Bruce. Just hope his development won’t suffer too much in the long run having this donkey in charge.

I don’t know why so many are worrying and panicking about relegation? Surely if there was any chance of the “takeover” actually happening then Ashley wouldn’t be acting like this by doing nothing despite us spiralling towards 18th place. If we stay up Ashley is the main winner banking the tv money again then we just repeat this s*** again next season until we finally do go down. We have had 11 seasons of him trying to sell as a PL team and it hasn’t happened. Well said, tubes.

Was supposed to be ‘drew 2’* in the 9 before he left. It won’t let me edit it.

I won’t pretend to know everything about him, but calling him a ‘failed manager’ because of a part-season at Luton is a bit unfair. In the 9 games after he left: Luton won 4, drew 4 and lost 1. In the 9 games before he left: Luton won 4, drew 1 and lost 3. They were already on the ‘road to recovery’ before he left. He was nowhere near a failure with a club who were predicted to finish 24th. He also left due to financial pressures at Luton and not due to his performance.

2-0. Similar performance to Man City away where we barely touch the ball and only survive a thumping because they play at walking pace.

I can promise you all, Choudhury is no better than the incredible poor options we already have. He’s a combination of Lee Cattermole and Jonjo Shelvey. The braindead thickery/thuggery of Cattermole and the ambling around Shelvey.

I’ve been a big believer in all of this, but how long can we hear: ‘It’ll be done by May June July August’ ‘Arbitration will be done by January February March’ Actions speak louder than words now. So far, we’ve had fuck all actions.

Loads of wild speculation that he is coming in to replace Bruce, as a stop gap until Martinez/Rafa take over, to undermine Bruce and force him to quit etc. etc. But in reality, none of that is as likely as a throw of the dice by Ashley to allow Bruce to continue and keep us in 17th. If Bruce was even remotely close to being canned, why make this move? Dawson is highly regarded internally and will likely be promoted to caretaker manager in the event of Bruce leaving. Makes no sense to have this appointment other than to try and support Bruce.
