I checked this and it’s based on PL games only and players only, so doesn’t include Joao Pedro vs Benfica or Maresca vs Liverpool. But in both 01/02 and 17/18 we had 3 red cards by this stage of the season. In 17/18 we had two on the first day of the season against Burnley.

I wondered this too but apparently Chelsea have done it twice before, let alone anybody else.

Sorry that should be 3 wins in a row while having the same number of players as the opposition…

Steve Livingstone has always stuck with me. We got him in swap deal for Graeme Le Saux and I think he only ever played 30 mins for us.

I was a student when England won the Rugby World Cup in 2003. The final was at 9am or something coz it was in Australia, so a group of us said we would stay out all day and all night if England won. We got to mid afternoon and then had to go home for a nap coz we realised we weren’t gonna make it!

Completely agree with this. I think he’s trying to get his leg in front of the opponent to shield the ball, but he times it badly and ends making a terrible challenge.

Dude! Chelsea won it all last night! At least give it a couple of days before letting other things get you down…

The optics of Amesbury punching a constituent probably contribute to the impression that Labour aren’t listening, so I would be a bit pissed off with him if I were in the govt

This reminds me of the eighties when a new sponsor would randomly appear for a few games and then disappear!

They would just keep saying science is wrong. If they don’t believe we need Measles vaccines they won’t believe this!

I’m not sure to be honest, but whatever problems we have, I think they’re more about personnel and recruitment than the manager. It also feels like our chance conversion is down, so we’re less likely to go ahead (early) in games, so the oppo doesn’t get drawn out to create chances for fast breaks.

But isn’t this sort of thing also about how teams set up against us?

I think that’s fair, and there are problems, but I don’t blame Maresca for having a lack of forward options. Jackson and Palmer have been injured/out of form and nobody else has stepped up. I don’t buy the argument that Maresca has coached anything out of them.

For the record, I didn’t think Poch should have gone at the time, but I also think Maresca has had to deal with two poor transfer windows from the club and possibly has a worse squad than Poch did. And as a club I think we need some stability. There has been too much turnover under this ownership.
