    At the end of the day, Newcastle showed more fight and intensity despite 3 games a week and an injury crisis than we did. Their distinct gameplan was to attack our left back, to play long balls over the top. It was also to disrupt our shape and solidity and it worked in part due to the extreme lack of discipline shown by our players. We made it far too easy for them. That was one of the worst 2nd halves I can remember us playing and we were lucky to only have one player sent off. So much stupidity on our part everywhere you looked.

    Btw, our former Academy POTY right back playing extremely well out of position at LB whilst our £64 million LB had another shameful performance was especially noticeable and depressing.

    Thank you for Tino, He is a gift at the price and hopefully can be Trippiers replacement and world class for a decade.

    You forgot Chelsea are the real winners of that deal since its pure profit for FFP purposes, which is all that matters Ive heard

    Same with Lewis Hall, him and Tino could genuinely be our starting full backs for a decade as well as Englands, think they’ll look back on those two deals with regret but if they kept them they wouldn’t have been able to hoard foreign talent for Clearlake

    To be fair, I don't think they wanted to sell Hall this summer. He'd even extended this contract. But he's a boyhood Newcastle fan and seems like he pushed for the move, and fair play to Chelsea for not standing in his way.

    As an avid academy watcher over the years, these are two of the most talented players I have seen to come from Cobham and I was genuinely outraged that we let them both go. Never seen two more obvious successes in my life.

    They both won academy player of the year while in Cobham as well no? Strange you would offload them but from a FFP perspective it does make some sense

    They did, the sale of Tino makes no sense in terms of FFP because we lost him for very little (and before this ownership was in place). Lewis was better in terms of finances, but still not good at all considering he was outperforming both of our left backs as a teenager playing in his second position.

    I don't understand how Todd boehly was smart enough to make his money in other areas but decided to be a degenerate gambler when it comes to football lol

    Chelsea are closer to Luton Town than they are to the UCL spots. Proper rebuild.

    Clearly Bruno and Joelinton play better under Mister Bonesaw than Leftie Lula

    If I were Chelsea, I would’ve simply played more pragmatically and defensively the second they went down to 10 men to avoid losing 4-1.

    God, I forgot jokes aren’t allowed on this sub.

    But since you brought it up, the situations were different. Chelsea had already capitulated before the sending off, where Spurs almost took something from the game down to 9.

    Yeah they lost 4-1 but did they play a passionate high line while down to 10 men?

    A win, 2 draws, and a loss is still a lot better than I expected when vs Arsenal, Spurs, City, and Newcastle. In fact since the start of the season I'd say this is the first game where the opposition was 100% the better side. We looked disorganized, lacking ideas, could be the international break. First half was a lot better. This is the type of game where Chilwell would have shined, Cucurella is so bad at attacking the left side is barely used. I've noticed Reece's mental isn't really the best either, feels like he gets a pointless yellow every 2 games. A lot to learn from this game and hopefully Poch scalds the players for a lot of the errors today, looked amateur at points. If Newcastle play like this every week they'll finish top 3, really impressed by them in spite of the injuries

    I’ll give Reece a chance since he’s been injured for so long but I agree with your other points. Our defence was clearly lacking today and I think the two consecutive goals in the second half killed off their confidence

    I was in the Leazes end and first time I've seen Cucurella in the flesh since I saw him play against us for Brighton a couple of years back where he looked decent.

    He was shocking today. Everything came through our right hand side. Howe seemed to have positioned Miley between LB and CB and it threw Cucurella. He wasn't sure where to cover.

    Mate I'm honestly still in disbelief of the transfer. I'll never get over it, not for a second was I convinced. 72m on a leftback after buying Chilwell for 50m, and with 2 promising left backs in Maatsen and Hall coming up. 72m is most teams best fucking player and we spent it on Cucurella, who we didn't even need. Any other position bar right back would have been better and made more sense. His best game for us unironically was probably against Brighton this season in the cup, he played right back and Brighton was resting some players I believe. I mean theres a decent player there, for 20-30m.

    Hows Lewis Hall been? I saw all his minutes for Chelsea and I don't mean to fit into the overhyping stereotype but he was really one of our top players when played, including having 3 great games against Manchester City. He really deserved some assists in those games too, I would have really liked to see him stay and even play in midfield if needed, I think he has the skill set and physicality for it.

    Hall is still finding his feet for us. Had 2 or 3 starts. Looked between ok and very good without being exceptional. Clear he's got the quality to go all the way to the top though.

    I wonder if the brexit mystic Paul Merson saw this one coming.
