Why have they not won a game yet? Is there something wrong with the coaching? Are players playing injured? What is wrong with them right now?

Some bad breaks. Some crappy finishing. Some injuries. Some lack of leadership.
All rolled into one, that is the start we have gotten.
But remember, last year, we got off to a miserable start as well. Got soem players back from injury and went on a nice run. I think we will see a positive result at Chelsea. Maybe not a win or a draw, but something positive that we can take into the next match.

Thanks for reminding that here is a light at the end of the tunnel.
F' Chelsea.

That should clear my head for a little while. Thanks for answering my question. Let's just hope the light is a bright light.

After Chelsea, come Birmingham City, Sunderland, Fulham and Everton. All winnable. Need to make up some points with these four matches.

Maybe its the crack I just smoked, but I think Chelsea is winnable.

West Brom should have been winnable too.

About the crack smoking or about the win?
Not to pat ourselves too much on the back, pething, but did we not kinda sorta call this one?
3-2 Hammers! And one of Chelsea's goals was a pk, which are always dubious to me as they do not reflect the nature of the game, although yes, they do contribute to the score.
I think I may grab a beer and jump over to the Chelsea forum and talk some smack!

About the win.
Nah, I dont think I called a win. I figured something positive would come out of it, maybe a tie or a hard fought loss but I really was not expecting much more than that.
