@Thirdworldisus @Kaysharic @Breaking57 Tub cookies are still better than Crumbl tbf

@Kaysharic @Breaking57 I feel like people who like Crumbl grew up on under baked nestle tub cookie dough cookies. They never got to experience a solid, home made from scratch cookie.

@Shhikhar3001 @iamlarrygee Boehly decided to play sporting director instead of hiring someone with experience and made many horrible big money signings, which prompted Egbahli to takeover and implement the current model. Both can get fucked

@iamlarrygee if Boehly was running the show I’m sure we would have done better, he has a good record of running sports team!

Selling to blueco was a mistake

@FrankKhalidUK “Market opportunity”

Chelsea are looking for a creative player.

@CFCMJordan I’m not going to spell out an entire plan of what they should’ve done, but they didn’t need to fire basically the entire internal staff and there were players that could’ve been kept for continuity while rebuilding in their image. Don’t act stupid, look where the club is.

@_____dig Which pieces?

In light of Bobby Fairview’s latest post criticising Behdad Eghbali for what he’s done with the club — I made this. I’d repost it, but I’m blocked. First of all, I understand the frustration. Chelsea Football Club should always be competing for the biggest honours — that’s the standard. But the moment this ownership came in and chose a full rebuild, short-term success was always going to be sacrificed for long-term sustainability. That part wasn’t hidden. That was the trade-off. What is fair criticism, however, is where we are now. Four years in, and we’ve regressed. That’s not acceptable. The club has to take accountability for the decisions that led us here. The stated goal was stability — a long-term coach, a clear direction. Instead, we’re now heading towards a fifth permanent manager in under four years. That’s the opposite of stability. The recruitment also hasn’t been good enough. Between January 2023 and summer 2024, 26 players were signed for the first team. 15 of them — 58% — have already been moved on within 24 months. 11 of those within 12 months. That’s not a sustainable hit rate. That needs to improve, full stop. That said, where I completely disagree with Bobby’s post is the idea that “Roman left a blueprint.” A blueprint for what — 2005? Football changed. PSR/FFP changed everything. The Premier League’s financial growth changed everything. You can’t just outspend everyone anymore — you have to spend smart. So what was actually left behind structurally? A sporting director with no real football pedigree. A recruitment system producing more misses than hits. Minimal use of data in scouting. A wage bill among the highest in the league without performances to match — no top-two finish in five years. Yes, we won the Champions League in 2021 — an incredible achievement. One of the best moments as a fan. But let’s be honest: that wasn’t representative of the club’s overall performance level at the time. The trajectory under Roman was already declining. The first nine years were elite: - 3 Premier League titles - 5 second-place finishes - 10 major honours in 9 years - 6 domestic cup wins from 7 finals - 6 Champions League semi-finals Then compare that to the following decade: - 2 league titles and 1 cup in the first five years - 1 cup + 1 UCL in the next five - Domestic cup record flipped — six losses and only two wins - Only 2 UCL semi-finals in ten years After the original spine — Cech, Terry, Lampard, Drogba — aged out, we never properly replaced it. That’s the reality. So no, there wasn’t some perfect “blueprint” waiting to be continued. It was outdated. A rebuild was necessary. The issue isn’t that they rebuilt — it’s how they’ve executed it. And yes, it hasn’t been good enough. But it’s also not as far off as people are making it out to be. This squad has shown its level — winning the Club World Cup in 2025, reaching a second domestic final in three years. The talent is there. The problem is consistency, leadership, mentality, standards — and enforcing those standards. That’s what should be demanded. Not “BlueCo out” — which isn’t realistic and won’t be taken seriously. 1/2

@CFCMJordan I’ll tell you 2 things that are not balanced, the squad and the club’s budget.

We’ve genuinely reached a point on here where if you try to be balanced, you get labelled a sell-out. For a certain — and growing — section of this fanbase, everything has to be negative. No nuance, no context, no willingness to acknowledge anything that’s actually working. That’s not “standards”. That’s just lazy. A balanced view isn’t blind support — it’s the baseline for any serious discussion. You look at what’s wrong, you look at what’s working, and you build solutions that actually exist in reality. Right now, the only thing that gets engagement is negativity — and the “solutions” that come with it are completely detached from how football clubs operate. Then you’ve got players like Enzo Fernandez and Marc Cucurella speaking publicly — pointing out issues, yes — but also recognising the quality that’s there and talking about building within it. Meanwhile, the response from parts of this fanbase is: “Everything is wrong. Nothing is good. Just do this” — followed by something that has zero grounding in reality. And it’s always framed as “helping the club”. It’s not. All it does is create noise, drag the narrative down, and pull against the players instead of pushing with them.

@CFCMJordan Huh? If they left some pieces in place from the Roman era, we wouldn’t be in this position.

@_____dig You can literally say the same thing now, lol.

@TheBlueDodger That team can still beat Spurs

Ahh man Spurs are gonna escape. 7 changes for Villa.

@AntiBoringCo @EaglePole_ @BasedIllinoisan When airline companies are proudly pushing DEI and standards are being lowered to achieve their goals, it’s a pretty big fucking problem, bud

@EaglePole_ @BasedIllinoisan No shit.. but it’s ridiculous to point to this as a point of pride, but put down a black pilot as only being there because of DEI and questioning if they’re qualified. Pretty sure the side questioning the pilot today would also be the side questioning those 23 people in Congress.

@Sean90432521 @shadybiev Waffle House shits on Cracker Barrel

@shadybiev Bro goto Cracker Barrel not the awful waffle

Yeah this place fucks. My god the South fucking owns us.

@dageonde @shadybiev Lived in the south my entire life and in no way does Waffle House have “gas station vibes” wtf 😂

@shadybiev Yes, I’m aware Waffle House isn’t literally a gas station. And yes, being from Atlanta, I’ve eaten there more times than I’d like to admit. That said, most locations still give off “gas station” vibes. There is, however, a halfway decent one in Avondale. Muting this post.

@AL1_Kebab @montszzz Glad you recognize that, if you win the league, you’ll be the worst team to ever do it.

Its funny fans that choose to use stats when it suits them. Also, maybe factor in that rice plays in a worse team and system under a worse coach. Rice under klopp would be much better than prime henderson. In fact, klopp football in that 19/20 midfield suits rice way more than the turgid football we play.

Been saying rice ain’t better than prime Henderson. 🤷🏾‍♂️

@BananaMarbleGod @Hockey_Is_All I mean, it’s a blind ranking. Also, chicken and waffles is HIGHLY overrated.
