oldgit Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 It seems old habits die hard at Palace. Even with a new manager, they sat on the half way line and allowed our back three the easiest afternoon's work they'll have this season. Jorginho's confidence is in the stratosphere at the moment and, with Kovacic, completely bossed the midfield. What happens when Kante is back? Gawd knows, we'll be impregnable! We're purring along now with our passing game. Great reaction from the team when young Chalobah planted one in the bottom corner. Thiago's got a fight on his hands to get his place back! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrbojangles Posted August 15, 2021 Share Posted August 15, 2021 Serious question Chelsea fans. Do you mind being called rent boys or do you take it as banter? Liverpool have issued a public apology for some of their fans calling Norwich on loan from Chelsea player Gilmour a rent boy. They have apologised for homophobic chants and say it will not be tolerated. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I'm just a fan and it's said about Chelsea fans when aimed at me or my team not me personally like Gilmour for example. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldgit Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Another excellent team performance, against a bogey team that always seems to find another leg against us. Lukaku did well on his first start but, much tougher tests are guaranteed to come. Even I would look good against a couple of donkeys like Mari and Holding. My man of the man was Havertz. Everything he does oozes class. How he managed to get that ball to Alonso in the lead up to James's goal, Christ knows. Arsenal's midfield and attack made it difficult for us, especially Jorginho, with their pace and trickery, but we gradually got control of that. Our passing game remains top notch. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithsimmonds Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Did n,t really have to bust a gutt to get all 3 points. Lukaku.......does exactly what it says on the tin. Still got at least 8 players to get rid of and if that happens before the window closes then maybe we might sign someone else...who knows. The lad we sold to Southampton got rave reviews but where he plays he wasn't going to usurp Dave or Reece or Chalobah...cant remember if a buy -back clause was inserted into his sale....still we cant keep them all. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oldgit Posted August 23, 2021 Share Posted August 23, 2021 Just finished watching Brian Moore on the Big Match ITV4 (1974). The main game was Chelsea v Arsenal at Stamford Bridge which finished 0 - 0. After the recording, Jimmy Rimmer and Charlie Cooke were in the studio, answering questions from him. What struck me was the interviewing technique of Brian Moore. No leading questions to massage their egos, no gushing and giggling and no cobblers rhetoric like "How does it feel to be European Champions...( he asked knowingly). Just straight talking, in some cases hard hitting, intelligent questioning which demanded intelligent replies. If this technique was used today, they would be left flabbergasted and on the phone pronto, to their elocution teacher. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

keithsimmonds Posted August 25, 2021 Share Posted August 25, 2021 (edited) Another one bits the dust...this time its Ike Ugbo on a permanent transfer to Genk...yep definitely cant keep them all. Guess our next and possibly last transfer target cant be far away especially if Kurt goes to W Ham. I think Pulisic is going to be the main beneficiary from the signing of big Rom...tap-ins galore for that little fella imho.
