Another defeat, another dreadful performance, another round of interviews trying to explain the chaos at Stamford Bridge. This time it was Brentford, but it could have been anyone.
A look at the Premier League tells you everything you need to know – Chelsea are 11th and sinking like a stone. In a way, it feels incredible we’re not lower.
We’ve scored 30 goals in 32 games. Leicester, Leeds, Bournemouth, West Ham, and Crystal Palace are all bottom 10 teams who have scored more goals than us.
Last night we played a formation with no attackers and didn’t look like scoring, then changed to a formation full of attackers, and didn’t look much more like scoring.
The painful part is there are still 7 games to go – we could yet end up with the fewest goals scored in the whole division. Everton are bottom with 24 – one big game from them and we could find ourselves the worst in the division.
