Why didn't you push for Donny to start whilst Ole was here? :stopitslime:

Some of these no.2's are snakes man. They'll watch a manager get himself sacked without saying anything then suddenly start making big changes when they're in the hot seat

:laff:

Apparently him and McKenna had been training the squad in a back 5 formation before the Liverpool game, Ole said nah, play in a back 4.

Why do you think Ole was teary when he mentioned Carrick's name?

He was like, "that b*stard led me astray now he's in my seat. :sadbron:"

I want Carrick and McKenna gone asap. Do your work placement somewhere else. :camby:

With all due respect my bro, this doesn't mean an awful lot to me.

6th place Chelsea winning the Champions League still went down in the history books as did last season's 4th place team.

As somebody who has seen better, more dominant Chelsea teams lose in Europe due to bad luck and unfortunate circumstances I couldn't care less how they get it done.

I'm sure when 4th place AC Milan won it in 07 it didn't mean any less to you. It was a good team scattered with legends getting it done and you celebrated it all the same.

Seeing Lamps, Drogs, Terry, Cole, Cech and them finally getting one in 2012 was great and didn't mean any less to me because they finished 6th. That's the same Chelsea core that won league titles and winning the Champions League was the culmination of that cycle. How other people view that success and where they rank it means fukk all to me and most Chelsea fans I would think. Nobody mentioned it at the parade. :mjgrin:


I know you dont care because your a Chelsea fan but the fact still remains Chelsea arent a bigger club than United or Liverpool :mjgrin:. If you arent winning both the league and CL at your most dominant periods then you arent established Royalty. Like Real Barca Liverpool United Milan Inter Bayern Ajax of the world have done. Whove either won trebles, League/CL in the same season Winning b2b CL making multiple CL finals in a 3-4 year window. :manny: United (08-11 and Milan 93-95 Capello) are the are the only ones to have a losing record when making 3 CL finals in their dominant period. But then the Saachi era b2b EC (this is what made Milan royalty) makes up for that and you could extent Milan period from 89-95 where they played in 5 finals (W3 L2). Even Carlo with the :flabbynsick: win made 3 finals (W2 L1) in 5 years (03 05 07 and won the league in 04). Chelsea dont have that type of resume yet to say they are truly the elite of the elite. At least make b2b CL finals first before even thinking that your bigger than clubs that have already been there and done that. :sas2:


I'd take Chelsea over Juve tho :hubie: who even with their domestic dominance are career losers in the CL 9 finals W2 L7 :scust:

Sancho, Martial and Donny link up. :ohlawd:

I’ve wanted to see these three play at once. They combine very well with the quick 1-2s. Bruno’s been misfiring for a while and deserves the bench, Shaw too. Rashford isn’t fit so no point rushing him

We didn’t see these line ups when Ole was around, but wasn’t Carrick in the coaching setup….:jbhmm::patrice:

I'll throw shyt against the wall and say McKenna had more input than Carrick did in the team. Carrick only made caretaker because he has more chance of getting something out of the players than McKenna.
