After the complete faack up today and of the last month, we are thoroughly gutted in general. But look, there is a silver lining however thin and difficult it is to see tonight. We qualified for the CL, and surely after getting totally hammered today by a 10 player relegated team, Levy and Poch will strengthen our weak squad over the summer with 4 or more players. We have been fortunate this season that we had few injuries (thank goodness Kane wasn't out for weeks). Our strongest 11 is a decent side, but very over hyped by us and the football media. Our subs and squad players are weaker than most other top 4 sides benches. We must strengthen for next season and today's inept performance and spanking just may be a silver lining. To me anyway, I couldn't really care after we lost title to Leicester after our Chelsea rugby match whether we ended 2nd or 3rd. It's of little consequence to finish above or below Arsenal as the main trophy eluded us in shocking style at the end of the season. We need a decent striker, new pacy winger, attacking midfielder, defensive midfielder, and competition or replacement for Walker in my view.

i agree with a lot of these points and you just beat me to it with your article as I've said similar along the lines of these last few results may encourage the board to improve the squad as looking past our first 11 we are bang average.

The squad needs 2 x centre forward, one of which can also play out wide, 3 x centre midfield players.... a DM, a powerhouse and a midfield magician, and maybe another CB.
Get rid of Fazio, Carroll, Mason, Yedlin and maybe Chadli

You forgot about a competant manager instead of that wannabe who is punching above his weight this year.

Our first eleven then Trippier, Wimmer and son are good enough after that you are right we are so average its untrue.
A month ago i said we needed two, three players tops to mount another title bid, but now I'm sure we need 4 possibly 5.
These players NEED to go -
Mason - Not good enough
Bentaleb - Awful attitude
Chadli - Too lethargic
Caroll - Too lightweight
Id give Clinton the benefit of doubt because he has had an injury plagued first season.
Onomah needs a first team loan, he is too raw at the moment.
We need to buy -
CF
DM and CM (at least one of them experienced)
AM
GK to push Lloris

The sliver lining is that the rest of the members on here are in fits of giggles!

I know, Chelsea`s entire season and 10th place finish was truly laughable.
