More U-17s fail age testing enforced by Eto'o

This is wild (although I hope the tests are accurate because if not this is a scandal of its own)

 

Ha

 

Fuchs has officially retired. He was a good captain for our inaugural season but he declined as the season went on. Probably the right call to call it quits.

 

Southampton also brought in City's academy director/chief youth scout as their head of senior recruitment who then got poached by Chelsea like 3 months later. Hard to keep an identity in your recruitment strategy when shit like that happens.

 

Chelsea using underhanded tactics? Well I never!

 

"decided" is an interesting way to say "was told to"

 

What Chelsea has done is kinda gross. Players I totally get with the movement but to do that to a staff is not a good look. (But I’m also not saying those coaches should t go get their paycheck)

 

It's extra gross to me because its not even like that guy had been there a year, I think he was only in that position for like 3 months for Southampton. You make it through one transfer window before you are starting fresh from a position that helps set the tone for your whole senior team and what your goals/strategy are going to be.

 

I hope this happens just for the slight chance that Pulisic becomes available and Spurs get him. But I’m just dreaming.

 

Mount injured in training yesterday, now Sterling and Pulisic injured in the first 16 minutes.

Chelsea might legit be cursed.

 

I’m sorry but it KDB sick or something? He’s done everything wrong every time this half

 

KDB and Foden bad today

 

He's been oddly off and on this season, Pep called him out earlier in the season and he picked it up a bit but it seems like last match it started bubbling up again.

 

Foden has been on Pep's shit list so this performance is not helping him in the least there.

 

This is Pep admitting he overthought this gameplan

 

Cucurella has been so bad this season

 

He’ll probably score an equaliser now but I genuinely can’t believe how terrible Cucurella has been since joining Celtic.

 

Pep has become self aware

 

whoa he joined Celtic?!

 

I have no idea how that happened

 

Woah. I didn’t even know he was ill. Rip.

 

Signing of the season.

 

Sad news. He helped Everton out massively one time when his Chelsea team beat Bolton despite it only being a dead rubber game for Chelsea. I believe Chelsea fans booed their own players for trying that day, too. It's clear to see where the integrity lies here. RIP.
