Very reactionary take but is this Potter all over again? Young promising British coach with connections to hierarchy appointed. Has a good start, winning first couple of league games, does well in UCL group/league phase including beating reigning champions of Italy then goes to shit.

Oh my days Benfica’s keeper has just scored to make it 4-2 vs Madrid & send them & Jose through!

Bluesky Chelsea fam you want to see a spooky parallel?…

Fair fucks to Maresca & the players, that first half was awful but they showed an awful lot of character to produce a response in the second half & get a very good point.

Genuinely funny how as soon as it hits December we forget how to play football. Only season recently where December wasn’t a disaster was 22/23 & that’s coz there was a World Cup. We made up for that by forgetting how to play football for a whole season instead.

Malo Gusto scoring against you is probably a relegation worthy offence tbf

Estevao congratulations according to Nick logic you are now the second greatest Brazilian off all time.

BlueCo’s favourite song on the new Taylor Swift album.

Don’t talk about football much on here nowadays. The one area I feel for Maresca in is the CB’s. None of our centre backs are good enough to play without Levi next to them.

That Neto goal at Fulham not only saved our season but arguably turned it around, ever since then the level of performance & character from the team has been so much better. A giant step towards UCL qualification been made today.

The only fair comparison between Sarri & Maresca is that in both seasons I was jealous of a championship side for having Frank in charge of em 😂.

Night all

A reminder that 3 years ago Chelsea went toe to toe with Real Madrid in the UCL quarters while Arsenal had no European football. 3 years on Arsenal just beaten Madrid 5-1 on aggregate in UCL quarters & Chelsea are losing to Legia Warsaw in the Conference League. Cheers Clearlake…

Maresca should just stick Cucurella up front

I was oddly kind of looking forward to the game today after the performance on Thursday & the chance to build momentum. All that positivity & excitement has gone after seeing that lineup. What is going through Maresca’s head!?

Maresca probably fuming Reece went for goal instead of passing it backwards
