Rotation ain't selection. @sonofchelsea.bsky.social explains how the Blues' woes are caused by the latter, not the former. And uses much better grammar.

Reflections on a frustrating and anti-climactic opening day for Chelsea.
But why there isn’t need to panic against a very impressive Palace side

Hi BlueSky, long time.
Probably longest review of a Chelsea game I’ve ever recorded.
Spoke about how much this means, brilliance of Palmer, credit for Maresca, Caicedo, Lavia, Madueke, Trev and Cucurella.
Easiest job in world talking about Chelsea after a win like that youtu.be/xgZ7cnom4nM?...

Chelsea could be accused in recent years of lacking seriousness.
The emotion of Sunday proved that this shit matters to the players, their coach and it reflected in a big win.
Hopefully this was the turning point the club needed.

There is this weird perception that simply passing the ball a lot makes you a good football team. It doesn't and Enzo Maresca's Chelsea prove it. therationalperspective.substack.com/p/the-underl...
The Underlying Metrics of Mediocrity
Varying from toxic positivity to blaming supporters, Chelsea have become a sad shell of a once competitive football team.

I really dislike everything about Chelsea right now. It’s so unserious, it’s so shallow, it’s so insulting and lacking anything to be proud of.

There comes a point where incompetent players are not to blame as much as the coaches that keep playing him.
How anyone can look at current Chelsea with Robert Sanchez as their first choice and not conclude you are being insulted must enjoy being gaslit

Also these signings bare no relevance to my judgement on current situation. How can I? I can’t see them impact squad till 2026
Yep. Don’t know enough about em, don’t doubt they very talented but expectations being placed on them don’t seem healthy & think many are setting themselves up for disappointment. Also think those hyping up will be first to turn & call em not gd enough when really we shouldn’t expect much at start.

Good we are signing players for….2026/27 - anything to improve next season? GK, CB, CM, ST?
Or is the new strategy just to keep buying for some theoretical future. Don’t worry it will better, in the potential future.
