    That's a bit harsh on RLC. He doesn't have to start, he can be a good player in the squad right now. What is sad, as you say, is that he's our best player.

    RLC with some range-findres if we're giving him the benefit of the doubt... some misses if we're not.

    He's looking dangerous, anyway, even if it's only to the people in row 'Z'

    Exactly, that's the issue.

    Atleast he shows impetuous. His runs are dangerous. His positioning has been good. In a season where so many haven't shown determination, it's nice to see an Academy grad have it.

    Fecking done and dusted. Defensively we are so shit. Just awful. It starts in the middle. We have no backbone. Right up the middle there is virtually no quality.

    Aguero gets another :(

    Didn't at all mean to be harsh on RLC. He's a good player already. Future Chelsea regular, I think, and an England international in due time.

    Azpilicueta easily done by De Bruyne to start that break. How do you go from best defending fullback in world football to a complete liability?

    Agree with you on all accounts.

    Dave is suffering from our general play in midfield and at the back. Matic's fall from grace may be the most damning thing that happened under Mourinho. He went from one of the best holding mids to a virtual nonentity. Bad teams can look okay with strong defense and midfield play. We have had none of it.

    RLC doesnt belong playing in the PL let alone for Chelsea. The fcuking kid is useless on the pitch.

    Cant wait for Conte to come in and send his ass out on loan.

    Kid runs around like he has his ankles tied together. Plays no defense and doesnt even track the ball he loses.

    Don't agree. He's taking on defenders running into space. Problem is, no one else is doing it.

    We are simply second best from back to front, in every aspect of the game, mid table really is about our level, they do say that the league never lies, Conti is going to need to overhaul the whole squad in my honest opinion

    Agree. Atleast one midfielder and CB. They both have to be of top quality as well. The hope would be that some of the other players could find some form.

    I don't think its form, they are simply not good enough, we need better players, that's the crux of it.

    As have I. Completely disagree. Take into account how ********ing poor this side is. Not sure what the ******** you expect from him.

    Great ball there. Shit quality on the end.

    RLC got into some good positions but the quality/end product just isn't there. Can't judge him though when everyone around him look like a pub team.

    Ultimately my point. He isn't bad, but why in hell would anyone expect a 20 year old to be a world beater? He's still progressing. Still improving. This attitude makes no sense to me....
