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?
Funny stat I read last week. If you would end games bang on xG, Chelsea would be too if the table. So the football ain’t all that bad… give it time exactly
Yeah I remember when we were all struggling to understand how Almiron was going to fit in to Howe’s plans, and someone brought out his xG stats.
Then he went on a run of scoring absolute worldies in every game.
