Think he gets a huge bye from our fans because of the Bruce saga and the vibe I get from him is as soon as we go on a bad run he'll be the first one going after Howe. I have a soft spot for him because he used to be one of us (on here). Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure about the official figure, but heard something like 350k/week being bandied about. It's not made him or their team any better for it.

Saying that, would be quite happy if he ended up here I know quite a few people who know Mount and apparently he's absolutely sound. Don't see this "cocky little shit" thing at all. EDIT: I've overplayed that. I know two people who know Mount Edited April 19, 2023 by Shearergol Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mac Alister is better suited to Liverpool as he can play deeper too, Mac Alister will have way less wages and Brighton are willing to sell him for a decent price given his solid years of service.

I really think Chelsea are on the verge of falling back to what they used to be. Next season is absolutely critical for them. A couple years out of the CL could do a number on their financial status and the perception of them as one of England and Europe's elites. It's entirely possible the Abramovich Era section on their Wikipedia page stands out decades from now as the golden years of the club. Hopefully 2023-2043 only merits a couple paragraphs, the same as 1983-2003. (I'm partially writing this to will it into existence) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I'm partially writing this to will it into existence) I hope you're right because I despise them and always have, but unfortunately I think they'll come back next year. No European competition so they will have a lot less games, there'll be more new signings, the squad gelling some more and a proper coaching setup with a real plan, so it's hard to see them outside the top 4-6 with that squad plus whatever they add to it i.e. an actual striker who can hit 20+ goals. I'd love them to become a mid table irrelevance again, just hard to see it. Edited April 19, 2023 by LionOfGosforth Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weezertron Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 We need more rotation of success in the league. Everyone seems to be losing their shit about Chelsea in the media. It's good for the sport. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The College Dropout Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 I grew up with Chelsea being pretty decent under Bates and the fella that died in the helicopter incident. Awful fan base. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

With the right manager and a couple changes it wouldn't be that shocking to see them near the top of the table. But I do think they are in a precarious position.

LV Posted April 19, 2023 Share Posted April 19, 2023 I haven’t heard of him. Which bodes well, because I hadn’t heard of Bruno and now he is my favourite player, with Isak in close second. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
