And know he's a first teamer and an England player. If he continued playing and struggling (It's a what if) that wouldn't be good for building confidence either. Of course he could have continued playing and performed as he usually does too.

No I don't. But Howe obviously did. And he's the manager not me. 😄

Chelsea are currently level with Arsenal and 6 behind Liverpool. As unlikely as it is you never know, they could surprise everyone and win the league. I highly doubt it. But it's not impossible.

Maybe. But he struggled against Dortmund (I think) and then was back on the bench. I think Howe wanted to make sure Hall knew what he wanted from him.

Doesn't always work out that way though does it? We loved Andy Carroll. I bet Liverpool fans don't.

Not the only ones tbf.

Are you suggesting xG is just meaningless drivel? Because it is to me... 😄

I'll give Howe the benefit of the doubt based on Hall. Howe will know when he's ready. He knows more than we do.

Reckon City regret selling him yet. 🤣

Plus Drury... 🤮

Damn it. 😀 Fulham scored.

Keeping my faint hope alive that they finally go down. Knowing they probably won't...

In a shitload of debt? No worries the rules allow it. But only if you bring enough in.

Just like Jackson for Chelsea.

Booking for simulation too. Seems they've remembered the rules.

Touché 😄

Reckon you will stick with this manager then? Or should wait for the inevitable Man U meltdown?

We're Newcastle fans. Surely that's old news after Ashley? 😄

Leave Chesterfield FC alone... 😅

Should just feel aggrieved about how shit an effort it was.

I think they are already there. Sadly.

Needs to Shearer Euro 96 it.

Don't see a backpack very often get called.

It'd be nice just to see a spirited performance. It's been a few weeks.

The league table doesn't lie. So we are 1 whole goal better than them. Until Wednesday anyway... 😄
