We will have to put up with jibes from the likes of Keane and company until we actually deliver something and not keep promising something only to go backwards when something looks like happening .
 
I've forgotten all about ending 4th at the end of the season.

I think our realistic achievement is Europa cup positions.
Why? We were unbeaten in 9 league games coming into this one. Of course we want to beat these cunts eventually, just as we want to beat dippers and never seem to, but it's not the be all and end all, and to think so is loser mentality. If we continue on average with the form we've had in the last 10 games there's no reason we can't get 4th.
 
We'll make top 4 lads. Romero, Reguilon, a RWB, Son were missing and Skipp came on in the 2nd half. Just back this fucking manager.
 
Ok so the Sky team are ripping our squad to shreds, and they're not wrong, but if they paused for some perspective they'd realise if we win our games in hand we go third...

We've played Chelsea four times this season and four times we looked like we didn't even belong on the same pitch. Everything they're saying is valid.
 
Well yeah, we should be looking at the players who cost £30m, £40m, £60m and have flopped and not getting carried away over Ben Davies. The most expensive players in this squad are the worst ones. That’s our problem.
That's a given. I'm sure we all know who's to be blamed for that.

It's sad that we have to realise, if Davies has to be relied on, on a permanent bases, we really have problems.
 
This Chelsea team have looked disjointed and moody for weeks. They play spurs and then they are a different team, they just get up for playing against us. Ziyech nearly even smiled FFS.
Would just love to beat them a few times to break this awful cycle. Why can't we have shiny things too? 😭

There's only so much Conte can do with out current squad, and two so called skillful midfielders are shit.

Edit - and Gil looks out of place.

Why do you think we need to purchase better players?
Yeah we do, no question, No one is disputing that.

But our rivals for top 4 - Woolwich, Man Utd and West Ham have issues with their squads as well. Their fans are all saying the exact same thing about this window being vital.

Unless one of these clubs does a mad spend this week and we do nothing then we are in a top 4 race.

That's why the time to strengthen the squad is now. We've got to get top 4 to attract quality players this summer.

Levy/Paratici need to do something in the next week to improve that squad and ensure top 4 which is basically there for the taking.

They will always turn up against us, it's their biggest game.

We have to accept that and try and match them. They are never going to rock up with a 50% performance like they have been doing in recent weeks against the likes of Brighton.
