    You had a good head start by having about 3 squad worth out on loan to pick from.

    A lot of people talk down Chelsea, but in the past 5 years you have won the league twice, europa league and a FA cup I believe. Hardly starting from scratch either.

    So I dont buy the remarkable story of Frank doing wonders with a squad of sh!t.

    Having said that I would like to see Abraham and Mount start for England over some other big name wasters.

    You’d like to think someone will get picked over Dele for England, seeing as he ain’t in the squad...

    We never said the squad was ****, some on here did though. Also considering we were going to morph into QPR when Hazard left, again according to some experts on here, then Frank is doing a great job. I get your point though.

    Probably true. Mane played a ****’s trick and bought the penalty, but that’s the modern game. ****ishness is expected from the players of today.

    I kept saying you'd be a better team without Hazard. I was getting **** from a few on our board for it too.

    We look so much better as an attacking force. Far more fluent.

    Disappointing rap tbh, just a grimed up limerick really. Like all grime mcees, nursery rhyme flows.

    Tracks a banger though

    Because you're no longer reliant in one guy making you less predictable. Nor are you carrying a passenger when out of possession. Better team > star player

    In all honesty the serious issue behind this has been lost.

    Police and charities along with schools and child helplines are reporting a worrying rise in verbal abuse, "jokes" and even physical attacks aimed at disabled people.

    If he had mocked a player for being gay or non white I think that it wouldn't have been seen as a joke.

    I think that the player was ignorant (I don't mean that as an insult but as in had no idea ) of the offence he caused and hopefully will genuinely change his views.

    Mocking people for appearing disabled is as offensive and no different from saying things like "I would rather be Asian or Gay than support City" as someone did last season.

    The FA **** up a lot but I think that they have handled this well in some ways. The player ain't be hung out to dry but has been appropriately sanctioned.

    This ain't a dig at anyone on here.

    I agree, the kid strikes me as a bit of a d!ck. He is a kid though, so hopefully the likes of Henderson and Milner set him straight.

    It will be interesting to see what Silvs gets for his racist comment following this
