The fact that Poch isn’t even being considered to get sacked after drawing against Burnley (19th) and Sheffield (20th) in the span of three games just shows how low the standards at the club have dropped since Abramovich left. There is absolutely no chance Abramovich would have let Poch stick around this long 27 points off top spot.

Sterling always needed 5 chances for 1 goal, he always needs 1 more touch.

Chelsea are not even the biggest club in London. Whats the big deal? It was an Oligarch's plaything for 16 years thats all.

Enzo regressed under Poch and was world class when playing under potter. All down to management.

Rory you should have mentioned that gusto has also flourished this year with palmer

The trouble with Sterling wasn't that he wasn't scoring for City. It was the amount of chances he missed. That was why he was let go at City. And with Chelsea he looks terrible because he isn't getting 10 chances per game he was getting for city. Haaland has shown, put somebody who can finish on that City team and they will get 30+ goals even in a bad season. So saying sterling was scoring 20 + goals for City isn't that great, especially at the end of his City career where he was used as the main replacement for Aguero.

I saw the words mental and ridiculous and assumed Rory was doing a self-analysis again

Chelsea are not a “behemoth”. If they were, people would care about their plight but the truth is..nobody does

Agree with them. KTBFFH!. The manager is terrible. The pundits are to blame, too. Caceido and Pochettino were praised by them.

You cant think of a giamt club that fell off? Really? Ummmm reallllyyyyy

If the manager is average, the players definately will be average as well.

Egbali is the biggest issue at Chelsea

Chelsea under Roman were a winning machine, most successful club of the 21st century

sterling was definitely the pep effect

People who call Rory a pessimistic fan either must have not been around when we were class or have dropped their standards to mid table mediocrity. Rory is bang on

I GENERALLY wasn’t surprised we drew against Sheffield

The main reason these players aren’t all flourishing like Cole palmer is because they are young and have potential. To fulfil that potential most young players need to be brought in with experienced players around them to build alongside them and eventually take over from them in time depending on what their potential is. When you buy 20 players under the age of 25 they have no experienced player to look up to or to guide them when the s**t hits the fan, when you look back at the league cup final all those kids klopp trusted had VVD, endo, macalister and even though he's still a kid but Elliot there to guide them and lift them up. Chelsea had none of that they had inexperience everywhere and no leaders or experience to prop them up and make them feel more confidence. I’ve played semi-pro rugby and felt that lift knowing there’s an older more knowledgeable player next to me to guide me when the adrenaline is pumping or you’re knackered, just somebody offering that encouragement and advice is priceless. Chelsea are sorely lacking this and need to bring that to the squad if they want to see the best of these potential stars.

Enzo Caicedo are getting battered because of their price tags, Klopp wanted caicedo fact, and he would having playing much better, this is on Poch, even Badiashile was decent last season.

With how well palmer is playing for this abysmal Chelsea side, just imagine how he would be at a decent side in the prem

Trying to talk about palmer wanting to leave your own team after he’s only just got there is a bit of a weird take

The nerve of that ref to not gift Chelsea a penalty 😢

Poch has proven himself to be a quality prem manager. Either Chelsea is a bad fit for him or Chelsea’s squad is unworkable. 🤷‍♂️

Poch is extremely fortunate that United fell apart in extra time. Because dropping points to both Burnley and Sheffield United in a span of three games is inexcusable. Poch’s job should be on the line if Ten Hag’s job is on the line. Injuries are not an excuse for Chelsea. United have had more injuries than both Chelsea and Newcastle yet are ahead of both teams. Getting tired of the double standards being used by pundits to cover sides even tho I don’t support Man Utd.

Change takes time, turning things around will take 3 seasons. Standards or not. Go look at all the major rebuilds through out Europe. These players are not good enough

This guy would give an aspirin a headache

hopefully the owners are smart enough to get Rúben Amorim.

Enzo was Jorginho's perfect replacement. But you don't immediately sell Jorginho. You keep them both and while one declines, the other fits straight into the role. The team needed just a few changes. Chelsea were 2 individual mistakes away from beating RM two years in a row, and now can't even dream to get into the CL to touch a team like RM. Ridiculous.

The ‘behemoth’ is returning to what they are. A poxy mid-table club that nobody is interested in. The Abramovich era was a ridiculous exception to the rule.

I love Bramall Lane, it’s the only Premier League stadium you can smoke in

As a Chelsea fan myself, i agree...there's only so much patience that a player like Palmer can have. Eventually he'll see that even when he gives his best, hes surrounded by mediocre players so winning games is far fetched. hell just upgrade to a better club where his performances are fruitful and yield results. hence why i think its better to sacrifice managers than players imo

Rory gets a lot of stick, but I could listen to him all day - completely unique voice. "At what point do you have to redefine who you are?" was a gem of a quote.

Just go and find another oligarch to solve all the clubs problems with money. It’s basically the only history chelsea have.

Some fans: " certain clubs buy the league. This manager is a cheque book manager" Same fans: "these players are overpriced. The same players would be doing better under better managers and other clubs" Make up your mind 😒

Poch is the single problem! I liked him - now I hate the Tottenham plant!!!

The enzo and caidedo debate annoys me cos poch cannot set up a midfield if they both held and stayed central and we had structure it would work but they don’t. I went Sheffield utd away and they are all over the place Gallagher left wing. Poch is a disgrace and the quicker he’s gone the better

Nonsense!…..since when were Chelsea the best team in the world??……..get a grip!

Macallister Trossard Ben White

Quite an exaggeration of Sterlings goal return at Citeh

I love Todd Boely

Enzo is better than caicedo. I didn’t want him when they overpaid for caicedo to start with.

With all the signings Chelsea made at the beginning of this season...I really thought they'd be a contender....as time has gone by I saw a team with huge potential but not gelling...i posted many times that they needed time and would gel...mist say I'm surprised that's not happened ! ...from a Liverpool supporter 🤔

Im so worried. Look at the state of man united just 2 decades after a historic treble..look how long it took Liverpool to get back to any degree of success, and even that success has a caveat. Chelsea could be looking at 15-20 years of mid table mediocrity. I look at that team and see nothing to build a spine upon, its like we've got all the filler before we buy the foundations and structural.

And people say chelsea are same as united 😂😂😂

Rory needs to pipe it down a notch !

There's nothing wrong with Chelsea. They are a full 3 points clear of Bournemouth in the league table

You only have to look at their fanbase to know that is true

They held liverpool away till 76 mins just saying

everton are in a way bigger mess than chelsea.

it's the first time I see Rory talking about Chelsea in a voice that doesn't die and without tears in his eyes. everything he says should be divided by 10. a clown who hypes Chelsea. he doesn't care about the club. the worse the club, the more views

So why people will want to move to this “club”? No sense…

Is so strange to hear Rory waffling on about Chelsea, he never does this……….

Forest pretty close behind them, a propee joke nffc is

on the bright side, Chelsea haven't lost in the league since February

Typical ungrateful, spoiled representative of Chelsea fanbase. Most fanbase of other football club could only dream of what the new owners of Chelsea have spent on player recruitment.

Rory, you too negative, one day you praise, next day you blame.

Rory is the most ridiculous person

Bad coaching bad recruitment. Simple. Sterling was never this bad at city & wth has mudryk, caicedo and fernandes, and others brought in have done at club level to be worth what they paid and play for Chelsea 😂

Our first ever FA Cup final 1915 Old Trafford … Sheffield Utd 3 Chelsea 0! Oh yes before I forget the club owners, directors manager and players are an utter shambles. Bloody hopeless!

Nobody last year was predicting Chelsea to win the league 😂😂😂😂😂, so arrogant

Rory blaming the foreigners and not Chalobah and Gallagher who had stinkers 😂😂😂😂. Classic Rory

Attention students, U do NOT have to be a Winner to be a Chelsea manager. U can be as bad as this guy nd still get to keep your Job.

Chelsea are a small club that just got lucky with Roman who just wanted to get famous so he would not get assassinated

Bet billionaire is gutted that former easterners extra Rory slates him

They are big club in the last 20 years because of a sugar daddy who ruined the football landscape. They were nothing before that. It’s just back to the norm and it’s excellent

Not even close for ridiculous and being mental . That award goes to ''Glasgow'' Celtic . Yesterday they were told they would soon be having to pay millions to 20, yes 20 former youth players who were sexually abused at Celtic . What do they do ? Take ownership ? Issue an apology and assure they will deal with this for the victims ??? No - No they write to the SPFL asking for ''clarification'' on a penalty VAR awarded on Sunday . Add into that they sing about the IRA every week and have a weird , weird obsession with wanting to be associated with palestine . Despite having ZERO to do with anything or anyone connected . Infact ..... thats not true - they recently abused and bullied one of their ''star players'' Liel Abada and forced him out of their club . His crime ? Being Israeli . So yeah , Chelsea don't even come close and thats just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to ''Glasgow'' Celtic.

This is exactly how Chelsea were before corrupt Roman came in. All very normal and those in their 20s will understand the hard way

Chelsea are getting what they deserve. There are bigger clubs in the Championship. Awful club.

Create a system for Cole Palmer... This guy is just a joke

Palmer gonna win golden boot? No mate

Chelsea will be a different team next year

Only God knows what's wrong with this team.

There was a time when these people were a breath of fresh air … but I personally think it’s run its course. Lovely people but why do I want to hear their opinions…

Don't ever forget how Chelsea fans were jumping with joy for spending most in the transfer window. You deserve to be where you are.

Blows my mind that talksport give helmets like him and goldbridge airtime. So out of touch with reality. Chelsea have spent a billion pound it’s really not that bad. There are owners out there that have literally ran clubs into non-existence and crippled them with debt to the point they can’t even afford to sign a player on a free. Give your head a wobble

No no np, it's Nottingham forest mate, we do what u do , but where u buy young talent ww buy unknowns and proven flops, the fans claim we should be top half or europe, weve doubled our fans since promotion amd have you met our owner hahaha its forest im afriad

Chelsea has a world class manager, excellent players and the people upstairs have started to figure things out, so it is onwards and upwards for Chelsea, remember a lot of people expected Chelsea to fold after Roman Abramovitch left.

He's like a Chelsea Ben Shapiro, loads of jibber jabber, likes the sound of his own voice but in the end nothing.

This one is a watermelon...when chelsea wins he jumps on the train, when they lose he also jumps on the train...Boring pundit

Boehly out

Enzo is a great player

What a clown rory is
