Arsenal LOSE the Champions League final! ❌
The Gunners have now played the most Champions League/European Cup games in history WITHOUT winning the competition... 😬
Chelsea now can rightly trim the squad and get rid of those that a) think they deserve better or b) simply aren't good enough. Give Xabi Alonso a squad of 20-21 quality players, 1 game a week and plenty of time on the training ground & bolster it with the top players from Cobham.
Chelsea Football Club is delighted to announce the appointment of Xabi Alonso as Manager of the Men’s Team.
The Spaniard will begin his role on July 1, 2026, having agreed a four-year contract at Stamford Bridge.
Welcome to Chelsea, Xabi!
It’s official, it’s a terrible season for Chelsea, the club world champions. No trophies, ninth in the table, danger of not qualifying for any European competition, players speaking out, fans protesting, managerial churn, inexperienced caretaker. Some of the players are culpable, not given enough, not taken responsibility when needed.
But this is largely down to the owners, to their flawed approach to recruitment, to their lack of connection to the fanbase, to their astonishing naivety. Chelsea fans deserve better. They deserve more leaders on the field and any leader in the boardroom. They deserve more expertise in the recruitment department. Owners need a rethink. Club needs a reset. #CFC #FACupfinal #CHEMCI
Year 4 of Clearlake has Chelsea on 48 points, in 9th place in the table after £1.8 billion spent on players. Truly by far the worst ownership in sports.
Compared to the majority of the teams in the PL, this Chelsea team don’t run fast enough, work hard enough, aren’t strong enough, aren’t physical enough, aren’t tall enough, and have weak mentalities.
Yet people paid £2bn to build this squad ignoring the above. It’s criminal.
Rosenior and Potter basically have had identical tenures.
Come to replace a manager that shouldn’t have been sacked (Tuchel, Maresca).
Start off undefeated, seem semi-serious.
Collapse and play hideous football, but won’t get sacked because the board can’t swallow their pride of saying that replacing the previous manager was a bad decision.
Level on points with Brentford & Bournemouth. Both clubs got raided in the summer and are still on par with Chelsea after 33 games lmao.
We are a mess.
Frank Lampard – Achievements as a Manager :
→ Derby County FC: Reached the Championship play-off final.
→ Chelsea FC: Secured top 4 + reached FA Cup final.
→ Everton FC: Avoided relegation.
→ Coventry City FC: Promoted to the Premier League.
It’s about a lot more results. It’s the disrespect to Cobham, it’s the briefings against players, it’s Vivid Seats, it’s the celebration of mediocrity, it’s the Bomb Squad, it’s the commoditisation of footballers. It’s BLUECO OUT. Their values do not align with the fanbase.
Lost for words, truly I am. This ownership ripped the soul out of this football club we all love. They actively do things the fanbase goes against, they don’t care. Every single Chelsea fan deserves better than this. We really do
