Main positive from yesterday after the Villa game is that everyone fought together, celebrated together and bared their teeth and got stuck in to a man. That goes a hell of a long way in a relegation fight.
I heard that Bamford wasn't actually offside for the first goal. He was in line with the last defender. If you look carefully, one of the defenders 8 toes played him on!!!!
Lots of us glossing over the fact that Pukki should have equalised in the dying seconds. Apparently it hit Meslier in the face/ head but haven’t seen it back yet myself. Jeez could you imagine the mood if it’d finished in a Desmond.
Pointless talking about this firstly because Barelona would need to sell lots of players to bring in cash to buy him, because they are skint. They are already bringing in 5 freeby players, which means at least 6 players of value need selling to afford Raphinha and the wages for the freebies. Secondly what happens in the summer I cant be arsed thinking about right now as more important things like survival
Best news today is that Chelsea may be forced to close down completely. Government not in a position to change the laws and rules of football Prem and FA in time for May deadline. Sale would be too complicated as many many companies, offshore shells, and tax zones involved. Chelsea is a huge web of mystery companies and shady directorships. So will not be done this summer, so like Rangers the only fair way is to wind the club up and let it start from the bottom. This is now fav to happen
Just looked at some of the company structure of Chelsea and decided its not for me Chelsea FC Limited, Chelsea FC PLC controlled by an Abramovitch vehicle called Fordstram. Only 2 named directors and not Abramotich? Bank of Ireland involved, virgin Islands Jersey, Canada and Abramovitch not named anywhere and thats before you look into all the Chelsea Harbour, Chelsea Village, Chelsea Athleticm Chelsea Sporting and about another 20 different companies which control everything from academy players marketing, IT, TV rights, international marketing……. A web of opaque void
We'll find out tomorrow if Leeds will have to fork out 18m to RB Leipzig regarding the signing of Jean Kevin Augustin!!!!
If we have to pay the £18m do we get him back? He will probably be known to Marsch, as they were both at RB Leipzig in 2018-19
We gave up our rights for him at the same time Leipzig did. He joined Nantes as a free agent. He was recently promoted back to the first team, but now has a groin strain after four games.
Just remembered that as yesterday's game was entering it's final knockings both Joffy & Cresswell were warming up extensively. My thoughts at the time were he'll probably bring Cressy on to run down the clock. Now you could look at this 2 ways; Thank god we could still bring Joffy on after the equaliser....or We should have got Cresswell on earlier to help see out the game. Doesn't matter now as it all worked out, but still interesting how things just seemed to go for us yesterday.
