Scrapping of away goals rule seems to be working in all ties

Xavi over Poch? Lol rather have Allardyce than that useless Barca khunt

Maatsen scoring in the CL quarters
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Adding value, very good profit coming our way
----------------------------------------------------------------------

That £35m release clause looks like a steal at the moment.

Maatsen's goal was excellent. Still baffled why he's not playing for us right now but there it is.

Experience

Cobham grads are seen as cash cows by Clearlake. They are as good if not better than most of owners purchases. Players sold for financial rather than football reasons won’t end well

Seriously what was the point of spending double the Maatsen fee on Cucu

Maatsen’s sale doesn’t even cover the price of one inferior expensive flop

Ian Maatsen:

"No, it was a surprise [to be in the position I am now]. I was always of the belief to play for #Chelsea as well. Unfortunately, for some reasons, it didn't work out how it should. Now I'm here, I'm very grateful. I'm very proud of myself."

5-0 up, let’s bring on two defenders and a tall midfielder instead of the two actual elite academy talents we have on the bench

Won a game 6-0 let's find something to complain about anyway

Won one game let’s pretend everything is rosy

Tbf though, prior to our transfer ban, it was the same under Roman

Yeah we sold Guehi in that summer when Lukaku was bought

As a club we're so often guilty of thinking the grass is greener on the other side. I'm sick of it, we do this more than any other club that I can see.

The likes of Guehi and Tomori should still be here but for reasons known only to the club they're not. Now it's Maatsen to add to that list.

Stat - Cole Palmers 'perfect' hat trick was the quickest in Premier League history at 29 minutes
----------------------------------------------------------------------
He missed the easiest chance in between those too - it could have been 4 in 29 mins
----------------------------------------------------------------------
what chance? All I can remember is the cross behind him. He had no chance with that. Am i missing another?
----------------------------------------------------------------------
The 1v1 when Mudryk played him in.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
ah yes of course, good shout

I'll never be convinced that Cucu, Disasi and Bads are better than Maatsen, Guehi and Tomori. We've downgraded there and it's cost us a fortune to do so.

🚨 Enzo Fernandez is thinking about surgery for a hernia issue. He has been taking injections for the pain but it has not gone away. Surgery would mean 3 weeks out.
He is currently taking an injection before every game.

I said at the time, when I had this injury it sorted all issues out however I wasn't fully back ready for atleast 6 weeks

Tbh we didn't exactly miss him in the last game. He should just do the op and get it over and done with. Hernias only get worse.

Then he can come back reborn for preseason, no need to rush him back this season.

Maatsen definitely could have had more playng time given our options at LB this season. Seems like, Pocn had a real concern on height at the back, but given how we defend anyhow, almost irrelevant <😃.

It will be interesting to see how Maatsen's career goes.

cucurella a bit of a midget too as well no?

Just because he has more hair than you BigBoy !

This famous Chelsea YouTuber died last night, I remember one of his videos

Poch's use of Maatsen was very strange, played him everywhere but LB.

Constantly used Colwill there instead of him.

Not surprised he's doing well for Dortmund

No one other than Poch to blame for the Maatsen situation, just another one of his many fk ups

He was here for 6 months and never got a single chance to play his actual position, even when the other two LBs were both injured at the same time. Instead he chose to play Colwill there and make him look worse than he is

Not sure what the owners were expected to do given his contract was ending this summer but of course they once again get the blame
