When would we have got that though ? Probably next season and more than likely 6

I reckon they'd have waited until the last game to see if it would be enough to send us down...

Still think we would have at least 10 more points if we had Enzo and kept KDH

Dunno hopefully we wouldn’t have spunked 30 million on Ayew and Skipp

It's interesting to see the similarities to us last season. When it works its brilliant, but once there's enough video evidence, teams seem to all do the same against Enzoball and figure out how to play against it quickly.

 

Wonder if the players just get a bit bored of the system killing their freedom?

Not really appropriate thoughts on Valentine's day, but I'm starting to think I could have a lot more fun with the club 20 mins down the road than I'm currently having with the one I've been faithful to for getting on for 50 years.  Maybe I can just keep Brighton as a bit on the side.   (I know I can't do this - because when they meet there's only one club who's side I'm on - no matter how old, tired and past their best they are).

Shock horror, Enzo learned absolutely nothing from his mistakes here. It's amazing that people still think he is the messiah. Good coach, cheque book manager, still has a long way to go to prove to me he is going to be considered amongst the elite, he spent 250m at a club absolutely brimming with talent, and still wanted more to spend. Hopefully he's still there in the summer to take Mads off of us for an obscene fee should we go down.

Unbelievable how much people talked him up anyway considering we had the best squad in the league, perhaps the biggest budget too, and only won the league by a point and not even making 100 points.

You reckon we’d do better next season with near enough the same players?

Amazing how a manager with so much attacking talent can allow a game pass by with no shots on target...

Yep, I can give him full credit for rapidly turning around the doom feeling around the club in the summer when we went down, and the first half of the season whilst visually quite a boring watch for me, produced some good football, but we did spend £40m and had a squad full of players that were quite clearly light years ahead of that level like Vardy, Fatawu, Hermansen, Ndidi, KDH, Winks, Mavididi, Vesty, and Pereira. So he has to take credit for the quick turnaround in feeling, and the immediate success on the pitch, but some of his in game management was questionable, and that run in the 2nd half was some of the most lifeless football i've seen in a long while (until this season) completely devoid of any freedom and just allowing teams 3 working days to organise themselves into a deep block whilst we aimlessly pass it sideway. Our sheer gulf in talent got us over the line in the end when we went far more attacking in the final run of games, but I distinctly remember Enzo on the sideline for one of the games where we were bombing forward and it looked to me like he was screaming them to pass the ball backwards and slow it down. 

Enzo is better than the level we've seen this season, and I think the players would have been fighting more if he'd stayed, but his job at Chelsea so far has been pretty average, absolutely no doubt Poch could have done the same.

Yep, they have so much attacking talent Enzo came out about a month ago to say how hard it was to have 3 top class players who all play the same position and how hard it was to leave any of them out (Palmer, Nkunku and Neto). 
I did say I had a feeling Enzo would be gone by Christmas so he's proved me wrong on that, but I can't see him getting past the summer if he continues to be so stubborn, this is Chelsea football club, 700+ passes and 0 shots on target. 
Ultimately I can thank Enzo for getting us up and taking KDH off of our hands to save us from points deductions though.

Chelsea fans sounding a lot like some of us this time last year. Once hes figured out hes easy to counter is Maresca. If managers in the Championship were doing it then it was a matter of time before Premier League managers sussed him out.

 

That being said i think we’d be in a better position if he was still our manager.

We could’ve battered the league with 442

just going for it quickly every week.
