Chelsea vs Paris Saint-Germain (UCL) Tuesday 17th March 20:00 GMT

Mamadou Sarr has had the worst night of his career already.

Imagine finding this out straight after the match.
The lawyers are surely going to have a field day.

And how do you unpick the global betting markets ?

 
The only good thing about today is that I got an early train back home. Utterly embarrassing from the Club that used to have pride. Tactics were all over the place, at some point there were on the right wing Neto, Palmer and Enzo all within 2 metres of each other, who was playing left wing? Cucurella. At other times we had Enzo or Neto as strikers and Pedro deeper. Shambles of a game. And don’t start me on the subs…. And Tosin!!

We are in such dire need of a competent manager, and I mean manager, not a "head coach"

This team might even work with a back to basics approach, cutting out all this sort of nonsense.

i know Maresca was bad but the defending has gone backwards to Sunday League level. It’s just embarrassing. The players have regressed, if that wax even possible!

 
I am not one of those, change the management, change the manager - I just can’t see who would come in and do anything different - I live in hope but as a fan since a lad and now almost 60, is the worst I have felt ?….. No way near in all honesty, I was at the bridge when looked like we were going to be relegated to the old 3rd division (we scraped it on the last day) however was today as humiliating as then for example no, but you could argue, and would accept that yes it is.

I think like some of you said, I am more embarrassed than upset. If you are going to go out, go with your head held high. We can’t say that and that leaves me sad and like I say embarrassed

Oh well ! We will all be here tomorrow hoping we can salvage something from the season

Good night all KTBFFH

 
At least we can focus on getting into the Champions League now.

We don’t need the distraction of actually playing in it.
I think that the subs were made thinking about Everton on Saturday as we weren’t going to win today.

100% agree. Tie was mostly lost in last 10 mins of first leg. Match tonight was over in 15 mins and then they were already thinking ahead to the next game.

Missed this game because there's no way this fraud of a manager's going to turn anything around.

BlueCo out

 
The sad thing about these two matches against PSG is that we made them look like the PSG of a year before and this is the first thing to happen for them this season. And it is mid March already.

They have been average at best so far this season. Going head to head with Lens for the league title and could not even make it to top 8 of the UCL league phase. Beaten by Sporting in Portugal, even Spurs put 3 past them in Paris and they drew 0-0 with Bilbao who are a mess this season.

Yet we made them look like world beaters. It is sad. But it just tells how big of a mess we are. Riddled with individual mistakes and amateur decisions from top to bottom.

Unbelievable to be almost entering the fifth year of the so called "project" and have mid table goalkeepers, bang average center backs and not a single competent winger, apart from a newly arrived Brazilian youngster who has not even played that much this season. Shocking really.

EDIT - Forgot to add - Monaco was also a 95th minute header away from taking this PSG into extra time in the UCL playoff phase. And that header was a huge miss, inches away.

Fernandez isn't fit to lace his boots. Parker was done dirty by Mourinho, a way better player than Tiago
One went on to play for Tottenham, the other Athletico Madrid and Juve. that's all i'll say on the matter.

 
Unfortunately its not up to Todd
He made himself sporting director at the outset because he and Clearlake let everyone else go…he admitted he had no idea what he was doing

 
The very essence of why football stats are moot without context.

We were only competitive against PSG for approximately 60 minutes until our suicidal man for man press was exposed.

Last 45 minutes of the 2nd leg PSG essentially sat back and gave us the ball because they knew the likes of Neto, Garnacho, and Delap would shoot it straight at the keeper.
