Chelsea v Nottingham Forest (PL) Sat 13th May 2023 15:00 GMT

I suppose came back for a point after trailing is an improvement of sorts ?

 
It’s just a reminder the size of the challenge and mess at the club that we still rely on Ziyech off the bench. All that Jan talent just wasting away 
well he's still a chelsea player and paid a lot to play for thte club

 
Teams score with their first attempt against us 91.3% of the time.

(This stat is based on nothing but watching us this season).
Based on watching us this season, we must underperform our expected goals figure by more than any other team.

And then I see this tweet (paid advert, in fact) from the Athletic, confirming that my made-up stats are borne out by reality (at least 87% of the time):

Mudryk not getting any minutes is mystifying and to prioritise a loanee with no end product and bring on Ziyech, guys who won’t be here next season instead is just abysmal stuff; beyond a joke. 

 
Don’t know what Lampard was doing today. I don’t think he does either. Bizarre selection, tactics, subs. None of it made sense.

Really thought we’d hit rock bottom with Potter. Then we appointed Lampard and we’ve actually become much worse.

I just hope the players aren’t too demoralised by being subjected to Frank’s inept management. The sooner Pochettino takes over the better for all concerned. 

 
Ok, Bring On Ziyech Who Was Basically Out The Door In Jan And Who'll Be Gone In The Summer To Leave Mudryk On The Bench, Fair Enough Lampard I Don't Have Credentials To Be A Manager, Same As You By Half The Decisions You Make

 
Although I was never a fan of Jorginho, is it possible that we have got worse since/because he left?
I personally don't think so, Jorginho didnt contribute to any of the areas we are struggling in aka our attack and defence. All he did was recycle possession.

Another embarrassing performance, think last week was a fluke, and the manager and players couldn't wait to bring us back to reality. Unless Kepa was injured, a ridiculous decision to recall Mendy, and it clearly showed with the gift of a goal, completely lack of authority in the box, and unable to give the defenders any confidence). Defence was a disaster on top of the Mendy issue, could have conceded 2 or 3 before the come back in the second half. After we got the lead, immediately handed back as usual, and never had the desire to push on for the win after that. With all due respect to Lampard the club legend, his decision making since he took over was just bizarre and confusing, it looks like we are trying something new every game, just for the fun of it. Players still look like they never played with each other before with 3 games to go, again it's not helping with constant changes. Felix should go when the season ends, Kovacic too if there's a decent offer, may be better for Silva to play his last season or 2 at  Brazil, it's not fun to watch a legend to get run around by nobody players in this chaotic team. Sterling reminded us he's still alive, maybe he will get to double figure on the last day, just to keep par with Lukaku.

 
Oh those were some terrible subs. Why have DD Fofana, an actual striker, on the bench and use Havertz. Deary me Frank.

Dogsh*t defending, thar Forrest striker murder Badiashile. Mendy is what he is, no surprises both goals are his fault.

At least Sterling bothered to show up for a change.

Forrest were awful, hoof ball in to the box and hey why not, it worked twice. Not PL standard but neither are we and we let them off the hook cause they were rubbish.

 
Dreadful performance... as I have said before:

Let's focus on getting 1) a striker who can put ball in net and 2) a goalie who can keep ball out of net.

And after that, if we haven't got a replacement for Silva lined up already 3) a center back to marshal the defence.

But I'm sure our priority will be buying some spotty 15 year old midfielder... with massive potential...

 
 A lot of strange analysis. 

Before 

1. Mendy shoud not play. What is wrong playing Mendy? It is not like Kepa is our future. 

2. Kova

This is the one that is confusing. I said it before the game, should have played Ruben instead of Kova. 

3. Hall

Young player struggling, normal stuff. 

4. Ziyech 

I thought he played quite well when he came on.

5. Murdyk

He didn't play well last week, Sterling came on had an assist and scored today so?
