We are languishing in 10th, 8 points behind ‘struggling’ Man United. Defense is leaking goals, attack is largely misfiring and players are losing discipline.
The mentality has also become like that of a mid-table team. Nothing in and around the club screams world class at the moment.
I just don’t find many differences between Chelsea and say, Crystal Palace (apart from the wages and all). As fans, should we also have a mid-table mindset? Satisfied with draws against the big boys and finishing the season with 45-50 points?
On current form sure, but they’re not too dissimilar to us. There are a lot of games that could go either way, in United’s case we’ve been unlucky to lose some and very lucky to win others. Chelsea have had some decent enough chances and just not clicked, in saying that they have a newish manager and a young team so I’d not be that worried about this season.
