The one thing Harry had which Nuno doesn't was man mnanagement and an ability to make players believe they are better than they are.  He probably got them to believe the bollocks he was telling them and he has made a career out of it to be fair to him.  He might have even given some confidence to Ki...

Saw the interview and felt Harry was playing devil's advocate a bit here.  Didn't seem to want to criticise Nuno or Kilman but he did subtly say that bringing another defender on naturally invites pressure.  A good point he did make was the fact that we could and probably should have scored three or...

Just seen Wolves have got in Angel Gomes on loan. Thought he was a tidy player not long ago and we were in for him?

Dawson and Zouma available on a free apparently. Both probably better than Kilman even now!

To be honest anyone who dives and cheats.  I could have quite happily smacked Paqueta several times.  However, that's not the way, one thing I did love was when Big Sam just laughed at Chico Flores, that just embarrases them.  Priceless...

Not sure if this one worked so apologies if it was too tough or confusing! Connections Quiz – What’s the connection? 1.  Who did Alex Ferguson replace as Manchester United manager in 1986?

Surely has to be a third season now.

Read Roy Keane's books and both are a decent read.  Clearly he is, or at least used to be a hot head, but must confess if what he said is true about Saipan I'm not surprised he kicked off.  It was the World Cup and it was an amateurish set up to say the least.

Sir Alf - I find it strange that in my lifetime supporting the club failure and relegation strangely seem to follow a period of success, certainly as a club we have failed to build on a period of success.  75 Cup Final - Relegation in 1977–78.  85/86 we finish third - Relegation in 1988–89 01/02 fin...

Do you mean Wilson cannot start games, Zico?     Not at all, in fact it makes far more sense having him on when we are attacking and fresh than sticking the poor bloke up there on his own when Nuno does his sit back and hope routine leaving Wilson alienated.  That's not Wilson's game, Taty's legs a...

Massive. Totally agree. It's a shame Wilson no longer has the legs that Taty does because I think there are several chances that Taty has had that Wilson in the same position would have buried.  I was watching some of the old europa conference games on You Tube last night for a bit of light relief a...

It's a cliche but the best teams have the best spines down the middle. You could argue that Fernandes is the best we have in that area. The others have their moments and in Pablo and Tatys case they run around a lot but none are top quality. Sure it's not easy getting quality in when you are near th...

Feel sorry for Wilson. Not the most mobile these days yet Nuno puts him on when we sit on the edge of the area.

Has had some great games recently, good shot stopper. Not getting much help from his defence.

Said on the match thread he is a nuisance in the nicest possible way. Yes he lacks certain attributes but works his socks off and he and Taty work well together. Problem is once they get tired that's when we get deeper. Should have put Taty behind Wilson he Pablo was knackered instead of trying to h...

May well be about resources but that's the first time in the premier league Chelsea have come back to win after being 2-0 down at half time. Be interesting to see how many times we are on the negative records list. Commentator always mentions one every week like some player hasn't scored for a hundr...

At the very least stop him from going into the dressing room at half time.

Nuno has to go. Whether it's poor subs, shit referees, a mentality issue with the players Nuno has shown time and time again he hasn't got any game management. If the season was about first halves we would probably be safe but it's not and we capitulated as soon as Chelsea scored. Sure we didn't exp...

Had enough of this. Talk about constantly shooting yourself in the foot.

How the fuck did he miss that

Bloody hell. Problem is Pablo is a nuisance, in the nicest possible way and he and Taty close down well but when they get tired we haven't got anyone to replace them. Would have brought Traore on for an outlet. Not Kilman.

Suddenly everything is bouncing Chelsea's way. Why is he bringing on Kilman?? Tomas has done well but we do need another quality central midfielder to compliment Fernandes.
