I actually thought Frank did a good job last season. Didn't think he would get that squad to top 4.

don't know what happened this season.

Like @Montez said lack of time on the training pitch,

Chelsea found themselves in a really unusual position that they needed to sign players at GK, CB, LB, CM, ST and replacement for Hazard's creativity. Which they did, but at the same time, it was too many new players. The transfer window ban phucked them up, what they needed to do over 3-4 windows they ended up doing it in 1. Frank doesn't have the tools or pedigree to handle this sort of situation yet, all the while still learning on the job. Tbf managers with far more experience then Frank have failed in similar situation.

Like who?

Kane
Saka
Sterling
Grealish
Maddison
Foden
Sancho
Harvey Barnes

England really should be playing with the PNP special. They've got the bodies to blow teams away.

They just need someone who can hold the ball and control games at some moments.

:lawd: You can change 2 or 3 but they have too many changes. Was unfair on the players and him. I try not to judge players in England until their 2nd season as the league is too intense.

Lampard should've protected them but he was fighting for his job.

No chance that happens with Gareth Southgate as the manager. He plays negative football and as long as the squad is lacking reliable LB options, he won’t set the squad up in a progressive formation to actually try and win games.

Shame really. Euros should be attainable and not many can play with their intensity.

I rate Matisse but football fans need to know better than to make reactionary videos after signings are made :heh:. I’m literally waiting for Partey to have a shyt game because I know my Spurs mates will spam me with the AFTV videos (and music video smh).
