The other thing about the Chelsea-Tottenham game. (self.reddevils)

signed7Schneiderlin が 投稿

Chelsea is now at 9th place, 48 points with 3 matches to go. The maximum points this season they can get is 57.

6th place is West Ham with 59 points and 7th is Southampton with 57 points with better GD.

This means that they are confirmed to equal and pretty much confirmed* to beat Moyes's "record" with the worst Premier League title defense to date!

*the only way they can be 7th and not beat our record is if Chelsea win all games and both Soton/Liverpool win none from this point, and cover 6 GD difference with Soton.

I don't think comparing Chelsea's shitty title defense with our slightly-less shitty title defense is anything to be proud of lol

Yeah but it feels good to be relieved of the "record"

Moyes did set a lot of them lol

At least we didn't celebrate drawing spurs in our shittest season like we had won the league. Last night showed how small time Chelsea are as a club and how bad their dressing room is. Some guy rang Talksport today and said that was nearly as good as winning the Champions League. Pathetic.

It's cause for concern when we're likely hiring the man responsible for their shitty title defence.

[–]dchuntHerrera 3ポイント4ポイント  (0子コメント)

Well the man responsible also won the title with them, a few times lol. I don't think a bad half of a season undos everything else he's won

Yes but they have a much better set of squad players than us and will get a young, motivated manager in Antonio Conte next season. Plus they will spend big in the summer on strengthen.

They will probably be at equal odds to us next season to win the league.

They are very good at hitting the ground running after sacking a manager whereas we still haven't recovered from Sir Alex Ferguson's retirement (makes us look so incompetent when you mention it).

I just find it amazing how their youth squads can win so much yet none of their youngsters get a chance. This is where we are miles better.

So overall if you asked me objectively who will have a better squad between us and them, I would say they have a better squad.

The youth squads being so good but none of the players getting a chance is probably Mourinho.

The players from the first youth cup win 3 years ago should have been blooded last year and fighting for a place this year.

But Mourinho is Mourinho. Great at many things, but not working with young players. It's his biggest failing, a seeming inability to get the best out of or to trust young players.

Of course, but remind me of the last time when Chelsea replaced a manager who had been there for 26 years... Alright, I'm being too demanding. How about 10 years?

[–]scotty1987 5ポイント6ポイント  (0子コメント)

We were preparing it since his 2001 u-turn. We were caught with our pants down with that and it was said it wouldn't happen again.

Fast forward 12 years...

Yeah but what United were supposed to have been preparing for this since 2001. In my opinion the club has botched things up here badly.

It should not be this hard.

Well to be fair, SAF didn't give that much heads up either

[–]HaveItUWotM8David Beckham 5ポイント6ポイント  (2子コメント)

He was 70+ that's plenty of heads up for me. Maybe the board thought he's Gandalf or something.

[–]black_squireMartial 4ポイント5ポイント  (0子コメント)

Hey I feel your point. But let's not pretend if SAF wanted to manage until he died no one would have objected. Lol

I think he announced it way too late and put the club in a stalemate position.

[–]scotty1987 2ポイント3ポイント  (0子コメント)

I'd say his age and hip replacement were enough signs...

[–]svtomHerrera -1ポイント0ポイント  (0子コメント)

If we don't change manager they have better odds imo

[–]RiemsMUFC 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

no one will talk about it because Chelsea is a tin-pot club.

[–]Shadowbanned24601Formerly /u/colmshan1990 0ポイント1ポイント  (1子コメント)

Moyes didn't have the record in the first place, Blackburn were worse (by 3 points).

[–]JGQuintelMata 0ポイント1ポイント  (0子コメント)

I think they're judging it on the final placing, rather than points tally. Considering the context of different seasons I think that's the right way to compare them too.
