A huge game at both ends of the table today. Can Chelsea overcome their shaky recent form and move closer to a top four finish? Can Cardiff get anything from their two games in hand, neither of which they are expected to get a point from? Team news soon!
Those color coordination is a hate crime against humanity.
William Walker
The most damning thing about this lineup is that Alonso is somehow still starting important games.
This motherfucker should be shipped back off to Sunderland or Bolton, he's looked abysmal all throughout the second half of the season except for the game against Dynamo Kiev.
Jack Nelson
>its a barkley, willian, alonso and higuain statpad against league shitters so sarri feels more justified selecting them in the future episode >its a jorginho has a comfortable game because the opposition are too shit to even think about marking him out, giving him the opportunity to make 2000 meme passes episode >its a kovacic doesn't really need to do much offensively because we're already 5-0 up episode >its a azpi doesn't need to do much offensively because we're already 5-0 up episode >its a rudiger picks a fight with the opposition striker despite being 5-0 up episode >its a luiz brainfart episode >its a kepa longshot save that comes in the 88th minute when the game was long done and dusted but it doesn't matter because that's one more highlight to his saves to really prove he is worth being the most expensive goalkeeper in the world
0 interest in league games desu. It's like, why does it even matter, fourth or fifth is the same. I don't even get my kicks from HIguain flopping, it's not the same if you know the striker won't haunt you year after year.
Nolan Powell
>tfw you will never see EBJT play for chelsea ever again
The ban means Chelsea won't sign players in any case. Then, it's finishing third in the cl group and playing in the el anyway.
Adam James
Now that Courtois is gone, who is Chelsea's most hated/disliked player?
Sebastian Campbell
This is pretty much the case every game now. Goals only seem to come out of the blue from set pieces or a player getting frustrated and shooting outside the box.
Jaxson Gomez
Have you ever heard of a tournament known as the League of Champions, think of it as the League of Europas big brother
Jace Thompson
Fucking Townsend thinking it's a red, what a knob.
If that's Andy Townsend he said the Jorginho yellow was lucky not to be red.
Thomas Williams
Yeah but Chelsea being there or not won't change much. This team is top 16 at best.
Jeremiah Rogers
jorginho
Christian Adams
based on form probably alonso
Carson Clark
It was.
Chelsea are playing their usual frustrating shit but everything out of his mouth about Chelsea is negative, pisses you off.
William Perez
I hate Alonso.
Hudson Young
Interesting, I thought Luiz and Willian were getting a lot flack from most anons but I can see the hate towards Alonso and Jorginho.
Amazes me how Chelsea accumulated a squad with such unlikable cunts
Kayden Ortiz
willian for me, i seethe so much when i see him given the captains armband in a cup game
Tt's a shame, because there are likeable players on the team, like kante and azpilicueta and when the team is winning and willian/luiz/alonso are playing well, they all get along and look like they're having fun and are exciting to watch but they've been shit for a while now, and there's better replacements on the bench: CHO, christensen, emerson. it's not their fault sarri keeps picking them barkley and kovacic have been underwhelming too
Zachary Jackson
>70% possession and no shot on goal so this is the dreaded sarriball...
You'd spunk your pants if she as much as touched your arm
Alexander King
proper thinning of paint , good job user
Justin Ward
James, Da Silva and Castillo all look really promising.
Jayden Russell
Took me a week, these guys start as grey plastic you need to glue into shape then paint.
Play as well, Warhammer 40k is probably the most popular tabletop wargame right now.
Gabriel Rodriguez
No, I said it was hilarious too
Aiden Jackson
>more youth players the english media have to hype up because they're eligible for multiple national teams
Adrian Price
It has a lot of startup cost but once you have your tools and a bit of a paint collection, the minis aren't as horribly expensive as they seem now. There are a lot of Start Collecting boxes that are really good value in comparison
Anthony Scott
Play with friends. Split a starter box with 1.
Alexander Martin
just saying her tattoos are vulgar and make my erection a tad softer, relax lad
Aiden Richardson
Not him but CHO has shown nothing really, special. I get tired of "potential" being some uber stat. Chelsea have had insanely strong under-21s and it's not really produced much other than players who gradually slide down the league table and spend the last 5 years of their career in the championship.
Nolan Lewis
Kante and RLC are the only mids worth keeping at the club. Barkley, Kovacic and Jorginho are wank.
Isaac Davis
i stick to videos games on the warhammer universe , mostly because of how fucking expensives the figures are
Xavier Martinez
>Chelsea lose >Angry rantman makes a based video I cant wait bros
Baka was a better signing than Jorginho, he at least had 2 stand out games I can remember, even if the rest was bad. Played great against Man U to win the FA cup.
Logan Johnson
You mean that poo in the loo?
Carter Butler
How do you know each nation/race to start with though ? There seems to be so many
Bakayoko was beyond terrible you saw players actually stop passing to him in games. He couldn't keep the ball, he couldn't tackle, he couldn't pass, he offered nothing and when he lost the ball, the opposition had clear runs to the Chelsea goal.
Camden King
Chelsea sucks in the final third. Buy Icardi
Jaxon Wilson
Bake only issue was that he didn't know what to do. All he needed was someone to explain him what movements to do and when.
Lincoln Turner
Knickers?
Chase Hall
one player cant transform this current chelsea. Squad needs a proper overhaul, too many rotten apples who simply don't care
Dylan Miller
What are >we Chelsea even trying to do at this point?
Christian Gomez
Orks, easy to paint and you can get away with a rougher finish. Plus they have the best banter.
Bakayoko is the worst signing of the Abramovich era. He's not even a footballer, he has absolutely no intelliegence or awareness on the pitch, the touch of a rapist, can't pass a ball to save his life, can't tackle, and literally produced the worst performance I have ever seen in a Chelsea shirt in 20 years of supporting (Watford away).

This guy gets it I remember Hazard started dropping into Bakayoko's position to collect the ball and do his job for him, because Bakayoko was scared of the ball and his teammates wanted him nowhere near it.
Also >Chelshit
Charles Clark
>le chainsmoking Italian man
Tyler Phillips
Sack him Ancelotti style.
The mans an absolute fraud
Nathaniel Anderson
Amazing defending on that set piece by the way, I am sure Sarri told them to not mark someone in the box.
Not saying I wouldn't but I feel like she's butters without makeup
Jeremiah Scott
cardiff are really bad what are chelsea doing?
William Johnson
Who's this hazard guy then
Juan Brown
And the thing that angers me the most is that people will blame Sarriball when the truth is this the opposite, there is almost no player doing short quick passes in this team.
I didn't mean the chick, I was implying that Indians aren't people
Samuel Ward
City has orange socks as well. What is this meme?
Justin Lee
he said kanté & hazard were tired from internationals, wanted to give em a rest
Camden Martin
kek absolute state
Nolan Ramirez
modern football jersey producers have gotten lazy.
Brandon Jones
Baka’s problem is his being literally more mentally fragile than Higuaín. Needs to feel appreciated/important. Right now at Milan he still can’t complete simple passes but has become a Chad destroyer in Milan’s midfield
His system cannot work in a league where half the teams play defensive counter attacking football. You can't pass around 8 players in the box and if you commit players forward too much you get raped on the counter.
Levi Butler
My favourite part is when he complains about the mentality of the players and then keeps playing them. But I guess the cheeky answer would be >implying he selects those players
Jacob Jackson
can always buy fantasy models , while it isnt updated anymore lots of peoples still play it , just stay away from Age of Shitmar
Juan Kelly
Best scenario is Cardiff is saved and Southampton goes down
Landon Robinson
Post arse.
Henry Diaz
I'd do the same desu
John Foster
Sarriball.
Kayden Harris
Imagine being bonafide world class players like Hazard and Kante and having to be part of this shitshow
Ryan Watson
Post it
Isaac Barnes
They're both gone to Madrid guaranteed
Chelsea will be in shambles next season.
Matthew Young
>Willian
Luis Jenkins
Just tasted goat milk for the first time. Not so bad but you keep a weird taste in mouth after
Not even sure why, we've legitimately sold out pretty much every home game. I guess people just thought we'd get bollocked and stayed home?
Isaiah Flores
They're due to play Chelsea in the semis if they both get through
Hudson Cooper
What happens to the extra champions league spot if the EL winner is already qualified to the CL from the domestic league?
William Flores
visit malaysia
Justin Rodriguez
Griezmann. Although with the transfer ban it'll be Batshuayi.
Brody Kelly
Just makes me think of the French and Italian leagues as joke leagues. To think he was one of the players of the season at Monaco, fuck me. Never seen a player more off the pace in the PL.
I have this theory, which I read on Italian twitter and I agree fully with it.
Essentially, fans see the players as animals/tools and the manager as human. As such, they like when the players work hard, they like to see a hardworking mule. But with managers they don't want to see that, it makes them feel bad because they see someone else working hard and achieving things. They want their manager to be passionate, with some mystical power, instinct, all things they can like while feeling good about themselves because "I just don't have what it takes". This is why people are so triggered by managers like Pep and Sarri, whyn they want their team to play some cinematic defensive football to win 1 0 from a corner and all that.
The media and the fans can't say shit to Pep. So they vent their frustrations on Sarri.
Delve into the lore. Once you realize how important faith in the emperor is, you won’t worry about petty things like money and you’ll be more than happy to destroy heretic slime like that dude in this thread who painted all those chaos marines.
Sarri is just a poor mans Pep. He's been exposed in the PL.
Brandon Fisher
"no"
David Brown
God Chelsea’s current side is so pathetic
Ayden Sanchez
Teams Cardiff Have Beaten This Season: >Fulham >Brighton >Wolves >Southampton >Leicester >Bournemouth >West Ham So don't feel too bad Chelsea fans, you're playing some real giant-killers.
Sebastian Gutierrez
disgusting
Ryan Wood
Leicester have won the league more recently that Arsenal, United, and Liverpool.
Justin Jenkins
Tfw furthest I've ever gone in UK is Liverpool. Was shit.
I used to hate Warnock but I've grown to like him this season.
He's a lifelong troll, and that takes dedication. Hope they stay up
Jacob Perry
A good chunk of the hate Sarri is getting is because he came after Conte. Fans love Conte for some reason, even at Juve they were hating Allegri until very recently despite all he achieved.
