Buy Trev back 💙

Not great result just yet they will come back stronger than ever after the international games definitely

Let's just look at basics. 1) Never change a winning team 2) If it works don't fix it 3) Don't allow your 'best players' to go to your rivals 4) Madness is when you repeat the same action repeatedly. All that has happened constantly since the takeover. Constant poor recruitment and continually moving players on has put us where we are.

After all the telk you must chenge the formation will need 4,2,3,1 standing

danieldannyg922w ago

What is man have to do is that they should stop using back three number three is not good for Chelsea this Premier League for God's sake this is not Bundesliga let it just try back for is going to be okay than Back three and we don't have defenders at all this defenders are worster than before Defender they should try and buy Defender

We are shite, and like other comments I don't get fofana, he's not a chelsea player get him out!!!!

kyle.dimond2w ago

Think Brentford were excellent but even still, games like this always seemed like a possibility due to the style of play and quality of the side. When it clicks, dynamite, but there’s going to be a fair few games where this happens across the season

Pretty awful, but I do think Brentford deserve a lot of credit. They’re a decent side.

No depth in the squad Estevao needs to have a start we accomadate other players so we can do the same for him How can we no defend set pieces just challenge for the ball, the new set piece coach is doing a grand job, ha Colwill overrated Palmer and rogers both had a bad night, we need to Dust off mourinhos rusty ol buses and park them up

cliffsparks2w ago

Colwill over rated Palmer strolls around and pings the ball around I can do that all day long but if there’s no end result Neto runs his socks off Again we let Jackson or Delap go too soon And as for the set piece twerp, we’ve conceded more than when he came

george.patten2w ago

I just think they’re not quite there without a full strength team. Get Caicedo and Pedro in and that’s a different game

oluranti05072w ago

Continue my comment, we need Fermino/ Scott, Kone and Camara. Man city bought brown new three midfielders. See revolutionary shape of their team. Defence gets steady with functioning midfield.

Can I have Coach/ Manager Alonso's mobile number please?

biggercreations2w ago

Alonso,Alonso,Alonso. You're to blame- Wrong selection.Sooner than later you will be sacked. I could not watch any longer after the 2nd goal. I suggested before that James should be returned to the right back position. Yours sincerely do not understand what he sees in WESLEY FOFANA.

philchristie19552w ago

Still shaky at the back which started off as probably our best defensive performance. Forgot Wellbeck and Rogers were on the pitch. Still not sure about Fofana

lewiswilson3912w ago

I am not liking our new Goalie to be honest. He is rated quite high, yet he keeps letting goals go past him.

patricklawless52w ago

Absolutely rubbish performance from Chelsea last night the players should give the supporters the admission that the fans paid to watch them.

matteo358912w ago

Chelsea is the same as Everton now, Xabi Alonso and David Moyes are facing the same problem.

james.brooke2w ago

Deary me. It was always going to take time for the structure to work, but you can’t be losing 3-0 at Brentford, you just can’t. Alonso has a lot of work to do, really needs to show he can adapt

mmaphalu2w ago

1. Central midfield pairing The absence of Caicedo and Reece James was very noticeable and Brentford exploited that effectively. 2. Central defense There's lack of cohesion in that area, either with regards to the 3-man defensive system and the pairing thereof, leaving the goalkeeper frequently exposed.

dongorgan12w ago

Chelsea fans cannot be surprised by this result we sold our better defenders the defence is worse than ever and the manager is looking out of his depth. Tenth in the league is best we can achieve

lrandall12102w ago

The defensive side of things is seriously worrying

antonymmartin842w ago

Appalling, totally toothless. I struggle to see how 3-4-3 will ever work in the modern game. Sure, they’re missing Caicedo, but they always get out numbered in the middle of the pitch. Alonso has to adapt or he will go the same way as Amorim at Man United

jordan.harris2w ago

Who knew Henderson wouldnt be good enough against a half decent team in 2026?

pranav.shahaney2w ago

Serious questions need to be asked of the recruitment team. How can a team that should be challenging for the title have a starting midfield duo of Henderson and Barco? Alonso needs to adapt as well. What worked at Leverkusen and Real against considerably weaker teams is not going to cut it in the Premier League

shamanth.jayaram2w ago

Really poor second half, changes were too late, and just felt there was no real fight. Massive credit to Brentford and the job Andrews is doing there though. They’ll win a lot games at the Gtech this season

berny1911ae2w ago

Mentality needs to change. They left Alonso short in the midfield and defenders

chillout2w ago

Xabi not the savior, methinks. No-one will be able to restore the club to former glories. It peaked year’s ago.

dantowen819512w ago

It can happen. Brentford have officially now beaten all the big boys at their own ground. But at the moment Alonso’s tactics look naive and self-defeating. A big international break ahead for Xabi

alexmarkou02w ago

Set piece coach very average.12 corners not good

amirmir2w ago

The shit Rosenior got as well 😂😂😂 Chelsea will still probs get UCL, but without the ball they are useless. Caicedo needed. Enzo a miss. Another mid needed. Even CB. Alonso got tax because of his name but this is a lot worse than I thought!

lgonz874952w ago

New goalkeeper, same results. I always said that Sanchez wasn't the problem, but the lack of physicality at the defensive end. They don't play defense as a team. Alonso needs to hire an assistant that could teach this current roster how to play defense because Xabi can't coach defense. That's why he was fired by Real Madrid last season.

dancoombs2w ago

Honestly just forget it and move on. United lost 3-1 at Brentford this time last year and still finished third. Chelsea are a team in development and there will always be games like this. Learn the lessons and onto the next

jameslloyd14.jl2w ago

Basketball hoops 🥶

briansfmurphy2w ago

Brutal second half effort. Too long in making changes as well.

freddie2w ago

Just wow… can’t say Brentford didn’t deserve that

trapperj5002w ago

What a load rubbish don't have any back line whatsoever
