We are on schedule for 56 pts this season. Fifty fucking six.

Leeds will fancy their chances in two weeks. The 8 game run to new year is crucial now. We need to win at least 5 of those. Plus try and get someone from Pool, City and Villa.

Any one of the 7 teams immediately below us in the league could finish above us.

The fact we are still 5th after 10 games is cos other sides you’d expect to challenge for top 5 are underperforming. City will be deducted pts so won’t get top 5. Arsenal, pool, will BAHA could. No margin for error.

One thing that needs to start is Alonso calling out officials for these errors or they I’ll keep making them.

Sunderland’s next 4 fixtures are Villa, Spurs, Pool & Newcastle. They won’t win any of those. Makes our performance even worse

We’ve lost 40% of our league games so far. Abysmal from all concerned.

Alonso is at best a mid table manager. Our squad at best is a mid table squad. Both lack courage. Owners & SDs the ones who have built a mid table club. Accept it and you be at peace.

I’m still very much 50/50 on Alonso. We got lucky last week. He’s hampered by injuries but still. Today we shd be taking a step forward not 2 back. My guess is 2-0 Sunderland.

Minor problem for Josh prob means weeks out in Chelsea speak. Our squad is made of Candy floss for the most part. Very frustrating.

Sunderland a huge banana skin today. This will be a physical game & without Caicedo we’ve been below par. Vital we avoid defeat going into the international break. Expecting a close game. Hopefully no start for Gusto. Fofana needs to up his game.

I hate Dirty Leeds but I am happy they have put a pin in the stupid Spurs bubble.

Chelsea manager Xabi Alonso says Moises Caicedo is a DOUBT for Sunday against Sunderland with a "discomfort". That means he’s probably out until the hew year.

Roma you wankers.

Anyone who uses the expression “oh my days” should be slapped. Esp if over 8 years old. Just putting it out there.

BTW the ref had an unobstructed view of Martinez pen so how he never gave it himself is staggering but we all know why he didn’t give it.

Lavia excellent today.

2nd half better but greatly helped by the sending off. Main thing is the 3pts.

Random thoughts. A poor 1st half. We could have been 4-2 down. Levi & Lavia only 2 who played well. Josh poor, Fofana awful. No CF limited us.

Hoping for the best. Expecting the worse. Don’t let us down boys. Up the Chels.
