It must hurt Martin Keown's tremendously large ego that the best Arsenal team in 20 years won the same amount of trophies as the worst Chelsea team in the same period of time!

So, Chelsea buying Mudryk is a bad transfer which is a huge fault of the owners but Chelsea getting rescued by also-newly-bought Palmer is just down to luck. Hmm...

Martin worrying about Chelsea when the best Arsenal team in 20 years have just gone a 4th consecutive season without a trophy lol 😂

Why is Martin worrying about Chelsea when Arsenal ain’t winning 💩

My word Keown is full of nonsense. No Chelsea fan thought we were going for the title this season. We would’ve been happy with top 4. We got Europe which is acceptable under the circumstances. Yes we spent a lot but with new owners, a whole bunch of players going and new ones coming in then by all metrics this young team has done ok. Why wasn’t he waffling this a couple seasons ago when his team kept finishing 8th?

"We haven't got money to waste at arsenal football club" Spent 700 million with arteta and have won less than Chelsea lmaoo

Simon Jordan simply doesn’t lose these debates, love him 😂

There isn’t one Chelsea supporter in the country thought Chelsea were going for the title this season. Very few thought Chelsea could finish higher than 6th after the carnage Boehly caused in 2022-23.

Did Chelsea have a good season? - went to a cup final - went to a cup semi-final - finished 6 places above from where they were last season. - bought a completely new sqaud and still better than Man U - only 3 points behind spurs - in 2024 accumulated 4 most points.

This is gonna be the biggest bit of cinema if Chelsea can complete a rebuild and win the league again before arsenal 😂

Boehly and co have had to replace Kante, Kovacic, Jorginho, Mount - the entire UCL winning midfield, Azpi, Alonso, Rudiger, Christensen - their UCL winning back 4, Pulisic, Havertz, Werner, Ziyech - all their UCL winning forwards, Kepa, Mendy - all their UCL GKs. Some were getting old, some were out of contract, some were not consistent enough. Not to mention having to replace CHO, RLC, Emerson, Gilmour, Batshuayi and other squad players too. It is important to keep in mind the context while talking about the 1 billion spend. They did not add to the UCL squad but completely overhauled it!

Arsenal won the participation trophy 🏆

CLOWN KEOWN 😂😂 his words 'im confident arsenal will win the title" did they ??😂😂

Martin Keown finished his career as a footballer & became a clown. Every Chelsea fan didn't expect to ein titles this season. A team of youngsters put together in same season? No chance. Qualifying for European football is a good start. Getting to 2 domestic cup semifinals is a good start. This Chelsea team will likely win another league & European title before arsenal, yet again.

Champions of Europe, you'll never sing that. Sit down shut up keown 😂😂😂🎉🎉🎉

Martin Keown expect so much of Chelsea, but always find excuses for Arsenal who haven't won the league in 20 years, or any european trophy ever. What a joker

They won the champions league your absolutely right. Something Arsenal has not done 🤣🤣🤣

Please never get Mr Arsenal to talk about Chelsea 😭. Simon cooked

I don’t want to hear from Arsenal fans about Chelsea Two seasons of bottling the league and coming close doesn’t erase the fact that the last 20 years where Arsenal have been drowning in mediocrity, Chelsea have been winning trophies left and right and not just participating like Arsenal were Pipe it down Gooners, Pipe it down

Finish midtable for one season and the whole club is doomed 🤦‍♂️😂😂 we’ve only been out of Europe for ONE season and now we’re already back in. New owners, new players, lots of injuries and we finished 6th. Not bad, must do better though. If Chelsea are failures for not being instantly successful then what are United?

Martin forgets Arsenal went 7 years without being in the Champions League. Very short memory

Somewhere along the line a lot of people, including these pundits, appear to have forgotten Chelsea finished 12th last season with only 44 points. Chelsea not only finished with 63 points, a 19 point improvement over last season but also finished 6th and are literally the youngest side in the entire EPL. Finally, these pundits mocked Poch for previously bringing up the fact Chelsea are actually 4th in xG this season. The reality is points won and only points won matter at the end of the day. But Chelsea have literally won the 4th most points in the league since the start of January. What has happened is Chelsea’s young talented side is not only coming together but they are actually finishing their chances. Because Chelsea have actually dominated and outshot the vast majority of their opponents, even in matches they drew and lost. They have actually been playing to their exact xG for the second half of the season. Poch should definitely stay and anybody who objectively watches Chelsea know they have a ton of talent and have massively improved this season.

I can never understand poch. No idea what he said / meant there

Marton Keown has no clue what he on about half the time.

you cant compare anything the team has done this year with anything under potter or tuchel its a completley new set of players and totally different scenario.

We were always going to have a tumultuous couple of seasons with new ownership and a completely new squad. Martin Keown should worry about how Arteta has only won one FA Cup in his multi year tenure. Arsenal might be doing well but you don't get a trophy for coming in second. Also, Keown saying Palmer carried Chelsea is only part true let's not forget even Nico Jackson has 14 league goals on his debut more than 70 million Havertz. Arsenal have spent 700 million and have one trophy. Same as Ten Hag.

Keown is angry and bitter that Chelsea are on the up while Arsenal are not improving- going from 2nd to 2nd. Nothing objective about anything he's saying. He's worried that the normal balance of power in the london clubs is soon to be restored.

"this will carry on during the break" ... we still want to hear 😂

Simon massive respect to you

Chelsea are experiencing something similar to Ac Milan when their Millionaire Owner had to sell the Club with Scandal around him.

Chelsea went up 6 places from Last season. More improvement than any other team in the prem. Let Poch cook.

So much chest from Arsenal fans, they still haven't won anything since that FA cup, Martin needs to hush hush

Martin's head looks like it needs some chalk. Looks like a cue tip 😂

Did Arsenal experience a massive fall from grace when they came 8th twice, Martin?

Chelsea have the youngest team in the EPL and 2nd youngest team in Europe combined! I also love the fact that the club’s wage bill has significantly reduced to being 4th on that list after Arsenal. If they make it to Europa, it would be a great step in the right direction from 12th to 6th, a final against Liverpool and 3rd place finish in the FA Cup all while battling with the highest number of injuries in the league and a constant barrage of gossip and toxic energy from the fanbase. Well done POCH, get a clinical finisher and an solid CB to challenge for top 4 next season and win any of the cup trophies. Progress!

That Pepe comment😂😂😂

Sir Simon = Top LAD Proper Clobber 💯 Facts

Clown, Arteta took 5 years to win 2nd, they operated in 8th for 2 years while Poch took Chelsea from 12th to 6th in 1 year

Keown is such a drip

Martin Keown doesn't even make an arguement he grabs whatever he reads in the headlines and just spits them out without any context for that whole time.

Keown, The Chelsea and Arsenal deal for mudryk were 'identical', don't take my word for it, look up shaktar direct general Serhii Palkin's comments on the deal. Do your homework.

You did it with boy Pepe 😅😂

Martin is so deluded

Kelly Brook has put on weight...

I don’t know if it’s stupidity or ignorance that makes arsenal fans think they are doing better than Chelsea. You’ve won nothing at the best seasons in 21yrs. Talk about getting used to shame smh

Just open opinions and nonsense to think Poch will be leaving

It’s funny how Chelsea is broken and Pochettino needs time to fix it, but Manchester United need to sack Ten Hag because it’s a disgrace. Pundits are jokers

Lol..Keown had to mention we got thumped by Arsenal. But the truth is in our worst even season, we still did better than his beloved Bottlersernal

Keown taking out on everyone and every club after his club bottled the league...

Keown needs to decide … either Chelsea have been a disaster or else Chelsea have been good enough to warrant keeping Poch

I think Martin is hurt and totally agree with Simon if Poch will be there next season Chelsea will be top 3 as Liverpool without Klopp maybe be not same

Arsenal have been in 19 out of 22 seasons in champions league. And they got smacked in about 17 of them...and have never been in the running to win it.....

"This'll carry on during the break" 😂

What is the point of the conference league

That was great Martin you really showed your footballing intelligence on that one

All footballing loyalties aside, objectively speaking, Keown who rarely gets it right, I think had valid points. Chelsea were a top team and the owners unnecessarily dismantled it. I think this is just undeniable. Simon couldn't deny it. They disassembled it because of their vision of having a young crop of players on long contracts to maximize the capital of their assets, slow the acceleration of the asset depreciation and ostensibly to win a league. The billion spent easily could have, should have, been used better, no question, with far better results than what's been seen. The process Simon is talking about to trust, was a self imposed process. They were already a top club. Hopefully the recruitment gets it right and the positive results Chelsea has experienced recently continue into next season. It's a big job for their Directors this summer as they're losing 3 significant pieces largely responsible for their recent uptick in results, that being Gallagher, Chalobah and Thiago Silva.

Oh Martin lay off, arsenal haven’t won the PL in over 20 years. Chelsea don’t need your ‘concern’.

Arsenal holds the record for being top off the league the most times at Christmas and not winning the league 😂 we talk about Spursy, but when are we going to talk about ARSEY.

Keown speaking with understanding context. Chelsea have had the most injuries in the league and had their first choice centreback pairing (Chalobah and Thiago Silva on the bench. Gusto was injured so Gilchrist an inexperienced centre back by trade played on the right. It was a patchwork defence and a team missing its best player that day. Theres no way a close to full strength Chelsea team would've lost scandalously.

Our aspirations to win the league with a group of 21 year olds was never in the clubs plans for this year, this is a 3 year plan which is a sensible approach given the long term policy! Simon is 💯 correct, watch this space Arsenal 💙

Listening to Keown I kind of understand why they want to ban headers....

Chelsea are supposed to have had a bad season. Only finished 5 points of a champ league spot.

Since boxing day 2023 Chelsea would have finished 3rd in terms of points, that's how good 2024 has been for the club. Defiently an improvement on last season, players will be more experienced and settled next season. Honestly I can see Chelsea pushing top 4 if they get a decent striker.

Well done Martin well said

Arsenal got Rice to improve they failed 😅

You tell him Martin.

If Arsenal were in the same situation, Keown would be praising them. If you want fall from grace look at United

Had to listen to what Martin said at 40 seconds about 5 times until I realised he didn’t say something not suitable for air time lmao

3 points behind Spurs, 5 behind Villa, shocking start to the season, huge injury list, yes they should have done better, but in terms of what people were saying in December where Chelsea would finish? They would have taken 6th

Jordan is proper Chels 💙

He is not a chequebook manager because he spends more than anyone else, that would just make him stupid, he is a chequebook manager because he gets his ideal choices all the time , which is impossible in an organic environment, he has never worked with a side which never knew how to win a title akin to Jose at Chelsea. No one is questioning Guardiola's process as a manager, his trophy cabinet is testament to that, however he has never faced a scenario where he has to settle for a second choice in my opinion, City is basically a lab experiment of how an ideal club would operate, zero financial risk, and a perfect operational and executive teams.

yeah, but Arsenal in last 20 years didn't have the budget to send 1 billion down the drain in 2 transfer windows :D:D

Martin is a bore how’s he even got a job as a “pundit”

Simon humbled Martin.

Man utd has fallen so low 🔅 one of the most well known club in the world. Fans are living in the past success. The player and the manager they have is completely rubbish.

Won champions league 2 years ago, made Europa again. Have the youngest roster in Europe. Signed the most promising upcoming talent. And “fall from grace” 😂

Tucel also narrowly lost two cup finals didnt he lol

have to laugh when everyone says the scottish league is rubbish and just a two horse race and the epl is brilliant when the epl is just a one horse race and german league 1 horse race spanish league 2 horse race same with french and dutch leagues

Do they ever agree?

the narrative the narrative the narrative the narrative - change the record FFS

They are talking about Chelsea. I'm not sure why Simon has to take pot shots at Arsenal.

That Martin Keon guy do not sound particularly healthy most times mentally! How he contradicted himself so quickly here, behaved like he was against Simon & agreed with him almost immediately in a yet combative manner amazes me!

Don't worry Martin our times coming

Chelsea’s worst season in decades & they won the same amount of trophies as Arsenal 😐

Arsenal are spurs in red, Chelsea have had there worst two seasons in 20 years, arsenal have had their best in 20 years Yet they’ve won the same amount in that time

Man city have done a good job of allowing us all to forget who the first imposter club was

What would you prefer? A couple of poor seasons post winning the champions league and thumping Arsenal 4-1 in a european final OR 'qualified for the champions league trophy' for 20 years?😂

So short sited these days are pundits next week they will say it takes time to build new squad just a room full of contradictions and egos at talksport

Nice one Simon i agree

Nothing wrong with people having strong opinions lol Do not watch football anymore, but one would assume thiago silver is going to be hard for chelsea to replace. Class player Chelsea will never move into the bracket of a top team, roman had them for years, won everything, and they still could not get to a point where they get that place among the best teams. Chelsea today are in no better position then before i stopped watching epl, and i stopped in 2002. How did chelsea do with that time at the top, in terms of roman making them a top team, they never achieved it, despite winning everything with roman as an owner. Personally i think chelsea have not moved into the top teams league, and are still at the level before moruinho Some teams come and go, they have a brief time at top, and cannot estabilish themselves as a top team, so when that period of winning ends, they go back to what they were before. When you see liverpool, could be rubbish, and they would still keep there world wide fans. Roman brought success to chelsea, but did not make them into a tier 1 team, proving how hard that is, as chelsea won everything in those years. Arsenal really shot themselves in the foot leaving highbury. There new stadium is not highbury

Give keown an award for yapping. Never heard someone talk some much and say so little.

Whats the argument here.. chelsea were UEFA Champions League Winners 2021 and World Champions 2022. Being invited to the inaugural FIFA Confederations Clubs World Cup. ELITE TEAMS ONLY. Where is arsenal ? What have you got tp show... the fact that you spent 600 mil doesnt mean you are better. Chelsea have Major Trophies in same 4 years to show for what spent

Simons logic:: chelsea is great football team because chelsea owner is damn rich.. 😂😂😂😂😂.. Hypocrisy at its best

Heyy Simone my guy henceforth

Does Martin know the club's owner was sanctioned by the UK Government, club striped from him and the entire club tossed on its head? He is acting like we won the Champions League and just fell of form for no reason.

United failed to qualify for the Champions league but luckily dont get into the europa or conference. We can actually concentrate on the league next season. If win the FA cup and get into the Europa league that wil be the most Spursy thing ever.

IF CHELSEA does not play CL minimum,it is like an ASTON MARTIN without an engine.

Martin 😂😂😂

Like how Keown say's of Chelsea, "five win's from last six games" actually it was five win's from last 5 games, the loss to Arsenal was not relevant to the sequence, but pratt that he is he had to mention it, loser mentality, typical of Arsenal.

Chelsea won a few games against clubs like West Ham, Nottingham Forest, and Bournemouth, and all of the sudden people are acting as if all their problems are solved and they are on the fast track to title contention lol. Did we not see Arsenal bop them off the park just a month ago?
