Before the stats era, the most expensive signings lists were full of hits
Since the stats era, the most expensive signings list is full of flops
Opinion: Stats has taken us backwards in terms of football analysis because of poor interpretation
John Terry: “[Antonio] Conte had an honest conversation with me & told me I didn't suit a back 3
He kept me on the bench though, so I had to tell him not to put me on the bench as I was blocking the likes of [Nathan] Ake coming through.
The club always comes first for me'.
Chelsea now hold the record for fewest goals conceded for a team winning the Premier League (15).

As well as the record for the fewest goals conceded for a team winning the Champions League (4).

Listen to Raheem’s words. “When the fans gets get behind you and get going…”
Again, players aren’t robots. When you’re groaning and moaning, booing and being negative towards them, they feel it. When they feel the support and you’re behind them, it pushes them to go harder.
You mean to tell me Villa didn’t have to
- Spend £600m
- Buy a new striker
- Sign leaders
- Buy a DM
- Buy a new goal keeper
….In order to improve
& they just got a better manager?
In our worst season ever…where Koulibaly, Cucurella and Chalobah have been constantly destroyed. Where Kepa has been chastised. Chelsea have the 3rd best defence in the league.
Defending was never really an issue.
Jose Mourinho warned the world of football that we won’t have Eden in the game for long if he continued to get the sort of tackles and kicks.
Crazy how he saw this all coming.
Life.
Christine Lampard: Can you wash the dishes now Frank?
Frank: Sure, okay, I can do it
2 hours laters
Christine: This place is still a mess you haven't done anything?
Frank: Well it's where we're at, at the moment. They were messy before you asked me to wash them don't forget.
Mount open play assists in the league in 5847 minutes since 19/20 - 3
Kovacic open play assists in the league in 3978 minutes since 19/20 - 5
Interesting. Considering Kova plays in central midfield and many Chelsea fans say that he needs to assist more (ironically)…

Pochettino: “Europe under our circumstance? Oh my goodness, we’ve had 8-10 players unavailable every single game. If you add more games, we’d struggle a lot” (

“Tuchel can’t coach an attack”
“Potter will come in & make our attack function”
“We don’t score goals because we play a back 3”
All these ‘passing in the dark’ takes
Poch has played Nkunku up front and we lose all form of aerial duels and combativeness. Hes still got Jackson out wide. It doesn’t make sense. It’s ridiculous. He’s got Enzo doing shuttle runs rather than sitting deeper in midfield to get his foot on the ball. It’s a JOKE.
Just so ppl are not misinformed, Mount is 10th in terms of successful dribbles per90 for us - behind Conor in 9th
1. Felix: 3.33 — (50% success)
2. Ziyech: 2.11 — (44.4% success)
3. Kante: 2.11 — (66.7% success)
4. Broja: 1.82 — (46.2% success)
5. Zakaria: 1.25 — (66.7% success)
Mount leaving could spell the end of Matt Law & his unlimited fuckery of articles at Chelsea. I can’t wait. This has to happen. I despise Matt Law for many reasons but he’s so toxic to this fanbase and he’s a part of the reason why we are we are. He pushes dangerous narratives.
Sarri literally got 100x more abuse, boos and vitriol than Pochettino has. Sarri who had us in THIRD. Won a European competition and got us back in the CL.
Pochettino is a former spurs manager and he’s got us in 11th in the league lol. It’s really blowing my mind.
Before this gets sensationalised, Havertz created more chances (4) on the pitch than anyone else. That includes KDB.
But of course, on twitter we’re going to point to the instances where a situation isn’t done to their liking. It’s typical.
Jackson dropping DEEP to see the ball because he’s got nobody to connect with and is isolated. Running the channels and having zero support.
His miss was horrible. But that was a miss from a man who was exhausted. He should have scored and it’s no excuse. But he had zero
Callum Hudson-Odoi is the youngest player in history to win all available European club trophies.
Age 19 — Europa League
Age 20 — Champions League
Age 20 — Super Cup
