I think this has been overlooked. Obviously it was wonderful winning a week ago but for the last 18 months it has been pretty shit on the whole.
Yeah. Playing attacking football for the sake of attacking football isn't sustainable. And I'd argue that the first season under Conte and the first season and a half under Jose we could play just as good football as we do for Ange every now and again.

With Poch I felt like we could reasonably beat anyone put in front of us. And under Conte and Jose I felt maybe not the same but at the very least like we could trade blows with anyone. The later stages of the EL aside that has not been the feeling with Ange. Rather it feels like we are more likely to lose than not, in spite of wanting to play such a attack minded style.
 
We can give him as long as he wants. He’s a fucking shit manager, it’s blindingly obvious from 2 PL seasons. He’s been fucking abysmal after that first 10 games.

But he won a trophy so some people want to suck him off because they’re stupid and think that makes him a good manager. No, it just makes him in the latest in a long line of shit managers who have won a trophy.

The right move is to say thanks very much and fuck off. The alternative is to keep him until he proves again how fucking shit he is. Then sack him. I hope we make the right move…
Better tell Sim from WATTV.
 
Everyone who wants to keep him because he won the cup, should we also not let any players go and not sign anyone this summer? Why not? These players just won the EL!!!!

We're a Premier League team playing Champions League football next season. Both players and manager should be upgraded for the next campaign.

Exactly, have Richarlison and Bissouma made their way off the transfer list just because they played hard in a handful of EL matches?

We won't be playing in the EL next season so our performance in it is now irrelevant. The type of opponent we played in the EL knockouts (and scraped past, Bodo aside) will now be the chaff in the CL league phase. It's a completely different level and based on Ange's record against top half PL teams and his CL record with Celtic, there is no reason to think he can make us competitive next season. Results and performances have been consistently shit for 18 months no matter who is on the team sheet.
 
We played vastly better ball under Redkapp, Poch and other coaches. You seem to associate the idea of being a loser or a winner strictly with silverware or not.

Our teams during those times were incredible. And you just said they did nothing.

With all due respect, fuck you.

Nah they were great teams, loved watching them play - but they weren't winners - Poch and Redknapp couldn't get us over the line. Its just facts. You cam be as sentimental about it as you want and I had some amazing times watching us win games under those managers but they both failed to win something and chocked at key moments.

The history books don't and won't show those teams as having achieved anything.
 
Chelsea hammered their opponents in Europe and qualified for CL the hard way, without even suffering as many injuries. That gives confidence. 22 losses in the league and barely getting through each round does not. Ange really is looking terrible.

At this point it doesnt really matter. We got the trophy monkey off our backs and we're back in the CL. The season ended with the targets achieved. Now does levy think ange is the man to take us forward, we will see.
