They have sold off a massive crew of younger players who they thought weren't good enough like Guehi, Tomori, Abraham, Havertz, Mount, Pulisic and Gilmour... pay over the odds for replacements and let their veteran leadership like Kovacic, Jorginho, Kante, Rudiger and Christensen walk for little or no money at the same time. It's a masterclass in how not to rebuild and waste a ton of money doing it. Can't believe there is talk of them losing Gallagher now too... I could honestly see them being in the relegation scrap next year without him
This is important. I know they're leaning hard on guys like Silva and Gallagher, but watch that first half...they are becoming unhinged.

4 yellows in the first half alone.

1 shot on target and that was from like 40 yards...Alisson had time to take a sip of water before collecting that.

Liverpool with the missed penalty...okay, that happens, it was Darwin afterall.

But Chelsea are just a shambles. They are all over the damned place, theres no structure, they're getting worked in midfield. Poch better make some changes or this isnt going to get better.

You'd definitely expect more from such an expensive team.
