He Ten Hag'd us.
Pochettino | Agrees to be US National Team Coach
- Thread starter Bastian
- Start date
Palmer should be our 10. Would also prefer Mudryk there at this point over Gallagher.
I don't disagree that Gallagher could be an effective player but any team with genuine aspirations shouldn't be playing him as a 10. He's still too technically limited and his poor decision-making gets exacerbated against low blocks.
At this point I think Palmer is better drifting out wide and coming into space. Second half he was in centrally and too many moves were breaking down with him making over ambitious passes. Long term yeah he could be an option just like so many of your squad not quite now.
The plan I assume was for Nkunku to be drifting around that central area so you'll have to wait until next season to see if that works on a weekly basis in the Premier league.
First of all, congratulations to Chelsea fans on the win, crazy game and even crazier ending to it.
On Poch: been his fan for a decade now (not as big as Amadaeus obviously). But based on his time at Southampton and Spurs, I over-rated him. Or at least he has stagnated/regressed since. He'll be delighted to have won tonight like everyone at Chelsea but just looking at the performance it's poor. The way Chelsea played after 2-0, making it too easy for us to come back into the game. Then second half was probably worse, especially after Garnacho's goal where United players kept that lead comfortably for half an hour. Of course in the end Chelsea won but it was more of a self-destruction from United.
Don't know if majority fans want Pochettino to get another season or not and, like with United, there aren't elite managers available on the market so will be interesting to see what happens at the end of the season. Chelsea's problems surely run deeper than Poch, though? Russian aggresion on Ukraine and Roman having to sell really damaged the club. Roman set high standards and made club successful. Now it all seems to be a mess like United are. Different mess, but a mess.

Thought the problem 2nd half wasn't Palmer's positioning but rather that Gusto was spent and not getting forward as regularly. He was a doubt before the game with injury; without him as a space-creating overlapper Palmer wasn't as effective. Gilchrist offers genuinely nothing as an outlet as well.
Typically when chasing games Poch has taken a midfielder off and moved Palmer centrally - it's usually worked quite well. Certainly I'd prefer to give that a try than to continue with Gallagher as a 10.
What a unique problem no one else is facing in the league.
.
like pochettino mentioned, he need’s experience players. The scoreline was deceptive. Two of chelsea goals conceded was by blunder because of inexperience Players. Now he is 6 games unbeaten and first chelsea manger to beat United since 2018. Not to mention all the injuries he has to deal with and the inexperienced players.
what he is doing is remarkable with what he is giving. Palmer going straight to pochettino is clear message to everyone that doesn’t understand football that Palmer stick with him and knows pochettino is the one that will make him a superstar.
Like I mentioned... nobody gives a feck you troll
He’s awful. We’re probably the worst coached team in the league. We are an absolute eye sore to watch both in the way we attack and defend. Feck Poch. I can’t wait till we’re free of him.

You are beyond shameless.
The audacity 
feck sake the cnut is back
Harsh on @Plant0x84
Touché
I thought the mods finally had the sense to ban him? gone missing since November and now gloating with his troll nonsense after a poxy win for that maestro Poch.
I feel feel sorry for him if above the age of 12.
No he just did a Glaston while Chelsea were shite. And he's a man utd fan apparently. He was always a bit insufferable but this is taking the piss.
Is it just me, or does this read like it was written by Gollum? Seriously, read it in his voice and tell me it doesn’t work.

Pochettino…. My precious!
I feel sorry for the sex doll with Poch's face taped to it that's been mouldering in his closet for months
Eewww
Chelsea are in just as much trouble as us if not more. In extra time they were barely trying. Poch is done.
Eewww
In for a rough one tonight I'm afraid...
Glaston was just a little stupid and would go ASAP after some embarrassing posts.
I'm more likely to become Pope than that Poch lover is a United supporter. A plain troll and not even a good one at that.
Puncture repair kit on standby…
Yeah Glaston wasn't a troll so much but could be bloody combative and annoying.
It looks like Amadaeus is gone now, thank feck. United fan my arse
Puncture repair kit on standby…
I've obviously brought this on myself but what a horrible time to possess an imagination
One good thing to come out of a bad night.
Who band him? @golden_blunder this your work?
Ol’ Poch was very happy with that win.
I remember back in the day when I was a wee-ro he would just suddenly appear and ban the shit out of everything in sight.
Will be a really fun FA cup final if both teams get there. One for the ages.
I wasn't around back then but he has been responsible for some of the funniest bannings I've seen on here.
Yeah. Would be confident facing them at a neutral ground.
Well, if nothing, glad we never got him in. He's done a horrible coaching job for years.
Eh. Technically xPts has them 7 points worse than they should beIt's also pretty funny that he is basically saying that they are seven league positions and about 18 points off, where they ought to be. After 30 league games. I could maybe get on board with a team being a handful of points of their 'true' position, but this is such a massive leap
Honestly haven't followed them enough to comment
I will say that reading this thread I'm not entirely surprised by the comments on Pochettino. Nor by Pochettino's comments. That squad is a mess, there's no genuine world class players, and no leaders, other than grampa Silva. Not suprised they fall apart so often
Not one to police celebrations but that was hilarious to watch This is Poch's Everest at Chelsea.
This is Poch's Everest at Chelsea.+1 He is garbage. Even Ole did a better job at United, for most of his tenure, with much worse players than the ones Poch has at Chelsea, and Ole was probably the least qualified manager we've had since Sir Alex
Harsh on Sir Alex.
Ha! Touche! You know what I meant
"since Sir Alex's time"Didn't say it was, did I?
A comment was made about Chelsea's lack of squad depth and I replied to it with some added context. Was in no way implying nobody else was facing similar problems with injuries.
Yeah, to be honest that was petty by me being sore from last night's result. Apologies.
