Rüdiger definitely has a mental illness. Look at how Guardiola goes to every single Madrid player and shakes their hand in a very sportsmanship-like behaviour, until Rüdiger enters the scene and starts his usual stuff. Demented person.
JK’s Fanbite of the embarrassing 8-2 defeat v PSG. We were hoping for an early goal. Well there was one. For PSG! Is the whole season falling apart? Is Rosenior the man to make us ‘the best team in the world?’ Are the owners stupid? @chelseafanbite@Jonathankydd#chelseafc
Spurs got 86 points in 2016-17 - very high for a non-champion
A Chelsea propelled by these payments beat them
That changed history could have transformed Spurs’ present - which is all too relevant now

@Dannythefink Still waiting for a reply from Saturday - 2-8 (eight) embarrassing.
How about asking the owners on why they are proverbially mugging the fans every week?
@SJohnsonSport Let’s hope for a better Straight Out of Cobham podcast - not enough criticism on it. It needs to be said that Rosenoir is out of his depth, lost the fan base - where is the club actually heading for.
Boos at the final whistle from #CFC fans, although Not many left in the stadium to do so. A terrible night for the club, humbled by PSG 8-2 on aggregate.
In the 50 years I’ve been going to bridge never seen so many walk out at HT including me. There was talk of doing it in a game later on but today’s performance brought it forward ..
Clocked Rosenior from the first interview, I’ve come across guy like him in my life loads, nice guy, talks a good game but ultimately he’s full of shit, it’s all buzz words in the hope that gullible people eat it up.
None of it matters if you’re not good enough
@SOCobhamPod Script for wed: So after the loss against PSG- we turn to the Everton match where Chelsea have an atrocious record. However I can see Chelsea getting a win there, Delap will score a couple and Chelsea will be back into the CL contention.
At that point, I switch off.
🚨Chelsea are entering a decisive phase of the season, with growing concern internally that failure to secure a top-four finish could trigger major consequences both on the pitch and on the touchline.
Senior figures at Chelsea F.C. reportedly believe qualification for the UEFA Champions League is non-negotiable this season. Champions League football is seen as critical not only for finances but also for maintaining the long-term sporting project built around a young squad.
There is a genuine fear within the club hierarchy that missing out on the top four could make it significantly harder to keep several key players satisfied. Champions League football remains a major expectation for elite talent, and sources suggest the club are wary of potential interest from rival European sides if that objective is not met.
The pressure also extends to the dugout. Head coach Liam Rosenior is understood to be under close evaluation heading into the final stretch of the campaign. While the club continue to publicly back the manager, internally the expectation is clear: a top-four finish is the benchmark.
Should Chelsea fall short of that target, the club’s ownership group led by Todd Boehly and the Clearlake consortium are expected to review Rosenior’s position at the end of the season before making a final decision on whether he remains in charge for the next campaign.
With the season approaching its final months, the message inside Stamford Bridge is simple: Champions League qualification is mandatory both to stabilise the project and to avoid difficult decisions this summer.
JK’s Fanbite of the turgid Newcastle game. Who thought Rosenior would know how to deal with a low block. Whoever did was wrong. He’s as clueless as Maresca. & hoping Delap would be the answer was deluded. Conference league here we come. @Jonathankydd@chelseafanbite#chelseafc
Liam Rosenior:
"We've seen big comebacks before in [the Champions League] and in this stadium, and we will give absolutely everything to try and turn it around on Tuesday."

#CFC not punished by #LFC for yesterday’s poor result. Aston Villa also lost again. Looks like whoever finishes fourth and fifth will stumble over the line rather than being genuinely good.
