How long does Potter last at Chelsea, doesn't have the pedigree of a recognised top level manager to prove he can turn this sort of form around so not sure how much slack he'll get given.

Might not see the start of next season if they don't make top 4.

 

[CliffyG]

Just generally, he's not really having any impact on the game

 

[turbot1984]

Chelsea in trouble here

southgate to leave england after world cup and potter to get sacked and become england manager

 

[Robbo]

It's interesting watching Chelsea, they just seem totally disjointed and their players are actually pretty average for the most part.

 

[JamesH85]

Partey is soo good in the middle of the park.

 

[CliffyG]

Has to be a penalty.

 

[JamesH85]

That looks like a Pena....

 

[el_dazza]

If that's Man City then that penalty is given..

 

[bingham67]

Chelsea look terrible easy for Arsenal.

Chelsea look terrible easy for Arsenal.

They seem to get lost in the final third, toothless in attack.

ben white absolutely solid this season

Historically at Chelsea, very little.

However, he needs to be given a sustained period of time and opportunity to get key players fit. Arteta is a case in point here; we were very inconsistent over his opening 18 months and didn't have the right players, and quality of players, to fulfil his tactical outlook. But the signs of development and structure were there. Cohesive recruitment and faith when the knives were out changed that situation. Potter doesn't have high level success on his resume; if you bring in a manager like that, it has to be to give him the chance to build a long-term foundation. That Chelsea squad is horribly unbalanced.

Just got home from Elland rd, what a mental game, seriously stressful been a Leeds fan!

I gave my season ticket to my dads friend as I couldn't go. Each game he has gone to we have won including the Chelsea game that I couldn't get to. I might just let him use the ticket all season.

Ben White has to be MOTM

 

[Pigeon_Killer]

Season's got 15/16 vibes to it with all of the big names, apart from City, faltering and Arsenal just picking up win after win. Obviously won't be nearly as much of an achievement as Leicester winning it but it would be just as much of a shock considering Arsenal can barely call themselves a top 6 team anymore.

 

[CliffyG]

Partey for me. Made Chelsea look very ordinary.

 

[Flaevius]

Partey for me.

Dominated the midfield, the man is a tank.

Expected Granit to be done for gbh then, times have changed?
