It did not work out for him.


Sounds right

Still glad he scored against Spuds though.

I will say this, waiting around for the whole team to be on the pitch has been brutal this year.

Apparently RLC is close (and may play in the next leg, but Chelsea are rightly trying to pour cold water on that idea, and I suspect down 3, there is no reason to start him in that match, but he may see some time). Kante is supposed to be back (and will replace Jorginho).

But my kingdom for Pulisic, RLC, CHO and Kante to finally come back and form the squad that we all want to see (including Fat Frank).


At least Hazard's news isn't another dagger for you guys.

All things being equal, you guys need to finish out the league season strong and get a CL spot, and you should consider this season a relative success. It's been a decent weathering of the storm, you got half a year back, you've had good luck with the youngsters, you've got good direction and a coach who's getting the ship righted - manager who's dedicated to the club. Not everyone in the league has that same good momentum.


Yeah

I feel awful for him. Shit luck.

May still screw Chelsea a little because he may not hit the clauses that raised the sale price.


Yeah, like I said below

Wasn’t much Lampard could throw at this to make it better. His leaders on the pitch didn’t help, either.
