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?
I love how people just ignore injury crises when it’s United that’s affected. When Liverpool have an injury crisis it’s on the News at Ten and people are holding vigils calling them heroes for not getting relegated.
To be fair, most of the teams in the league have an injury crisis at the moment. The scheduling last year really did a number on a lot of players.
