The mind boggles

Spanish preference? Maresca will learn soon hopefully. Sooner than Poch anyways.

Poch had the potential benefit of looking on this thread to see what he should have done as well, and never did...I wonder if maresca will make that error... Have we had any new posters lately...

Teams are out

The team is
Sanchez
Gusto, Forfana, Colwill, Cucurella
Lavia, Caicedo
Palmer, Enzo, Nkunku
Jackson

Like that starting XI.

Sanchez doesn’t fill me with confidence, the rest iof the line should be able to perform.

Playing Sanchez is the equivalent of playing with the other team having a 1 goal handicap

BBC -

Raheem Sterling's representatives have released a statement about him being left out of Chelsea's matchday squad today - in an unusual twist.

"Raheem Sterling is contracted to Chelsea Football Club for the next three years," it reads.

"He returned to England two weeks early to conduct individual training, and has had a positive pre-season under the new coach, who he has developed a good working relationship with.

"He is committed, as ever, to delivering at the highest level for Chelsea FC and the fans, who he holds in high regard, and given his inclusion in official club pre-match material this week, our expectation was that Raheem would be involved in this weekend’s fixture in some capacity.

"As a camp, we have always had positive dialogue with, and assurance from, Chelsea FC in relation to Raheem’s future at the club, so we look forward to gaining clarity on the situation.

"Until then, we will continue to support Raheem’s desire to start the new season positively."

I didnt notice Sterling wasn’t on the bench.

Lol - that is so unprofessional, you can be pizzed off about not playing but surely you do that behind closed doors?

Sterling

Reward for racism? Captaincy

A bit uncomfortable with Enzo being captain and brushing him singing a racist song aside so easily.

I don't think he should be sacked for it, but I did expect the club to make more of a disciplinary matter out of it than they have.

I agree. I don't think his twitter apology was enough nor the club's statements. Although ultimately its an issue for the Argentinian FA and FIFA

Chilwell not on bench either

Defo gone too. He’ll be a good signing for someone

This guy starts Sanchez and captains the racist

I already have lost what little faith was left in him and the season hasn’t even started ffs

Get him out

Well that's all the pundits are going to talk about now

Big bad chelsea dare drop a player or sell a player

Are not aloud to make mistakes or should we just label people and cancel people for the rest of their lives?
