View submission: Thoughts on last few games?

View parent comment

I feel the same. The number 1 concerning aspect is how lethargic it looks. I actually didn't mind the loses when it seemed like there was a drive. But losing while dragging their feet and completing about 10000000 back passes and not a single good ball over the top, is so hard to watch. I find myself checking my phone constantly the last few have because it's so slow and predictable. I usually don't look at my phone except halftime.

Only a month or so ago this team was electric, and I know that can come back. But I'm a bit worried at how long that might take. Another conference league year is a bit sad for a team like Chelsea.

Exactly! There have been some performances as of late where it feels futile to expect them to awake from their slumber on the pitch. I thought the West Ham game was going to be a spark with the second half adjustments, but to see it followed up with whatever that languid nonsense was yesterday was disappointing. I hope we can improve and would expect us to at least play in the UEL next year, but the tease and prospect of the UCL not so long ago is what’s so frustrating. Growing pains though…or so I hope!
