Newcastle United 4-1 Chelsea (25/11/23) | Reaction: pg. 27 | Goal-posts: OP


Recommended Posts

One for the pet hates thread but always disliked headlines like the BBC one saying "Newcastle too strong for 10 man Chelsea"

 

Was already 3-1 when they went down to 10 men, always feel the headline is disingenuous

Enzo Fernández looks decent, but again, not anywhere near his price tag. Still, when they were making their first subs, you can’t help but worry a bit until they actually play and look mostly useless. There’s no chemistry in that squad whatsoever.

This is what allways happens when someone spend insane amount of money on a player solely based on their WC performances. It's just a purple patch for christs sake.. I was very sceptical when they bought him, but everyone was just hyping him so much (just like Mudryk). I guess these players are what people mean when they say that we need "elite players".[emoji38]

:lol:


Remember when Mudryk was gagging to go to Arsenal? Cringe IG posts, comments, and now he’s stuck at this whack version of a football club. 
 

Love that our depleted squad ran over the narrative of Chelsea finding some form and climbing the table. Get fucked. [emoji38]

Yeah, it makes out we only won because they were down to ten men, but game was already wrapped before the red for sure.

And the narrative is solely based on how much money they have spent.. They spent £400m on Enzo, Sterling, Caicedo, Mudryk and Cucurella. It's not about how much money you spend, it's about how you spend them. Manchester United is another good example of that. Chelseas squad is just majorly overhyped, mixed with money spent bias, so everyone just expect them to find some crazy form eventually.
