    All is clearly not well at Chelsea. I took an early dislike to Tuchel just from his manner he has the appearance of a toxic personality to me. Ziyech scores a belter and reacts like someone pee'd on his cornflakes. Lukaku is pining for last seasons team and they are bickering and niggling each other constantly. Doesn't look anything like a harmonious, league winning team.

    Out of interest what suggestions are there that he has a toxic personality? I don’t like him and can’t put my finger on why

    And what do you mean “pining for last season’s team”? Did they play significantly differently ?

    I was refering to Lukaku's comments about returning to SerieA. Def not the words of someone who is enjoying the environment.

    95% of a football club happens away from the matchday pitch and I feel like Tuchel has created an unpleasant environment for the players. The early thing for me was his subbing of Hudson Odoi for no good reason after bringing him on for 15 minutes (cant remember the specifics.). Its not the fault of the player if the demands havent been communicated properly. Expectations should be high with all their quality but if there's no enjoyment of the sport and the game then there is a big problem ie, scoring and taking the lead but nobody on the pitch is pleased.

    A perfect fit, St Jabbo. It is where all Man Utd failiures go to finish their careers.

    It's funny that it took the postponement of one of the biggest game's in the English football calendar to get people all worked up about the issue that's been going on for weeks.

    Spurs pay the price for not taking their chances.

    Was it his poor pass that started the move for Spurs’ goal?

    Yep, under no pressure his pass was easily intercepted leaving him in no mans land and Kane in on goal.

    Looks a farcry from the player we saw last season - especially his passing.

    £45m-£50m for Vestergaard & Ings looks better every week
