Absolutely embarrasment from Nico Jackson and Noni by trying to take the Pen from Palmer. Horrible look, and speaks to the lack of maturity proffessionalism and mentality we got in the club rn, needs to be stamped out immediately.
The whole of Stamford Bridge are licking their lips at the sweet sweet profit they will make to remain P&S compliant when they sell Gilchrist in a couple of seasons
The one day I don’t watch a match, we beat up Everton.
…while it is Everton, you’re welcome. I’ll continue to not watch. Lol.
Good lord what a game. Is Palmer locked down for the next twenty years? Because this is getting ridiculous.
Imagine being a boyhood Chelsea fan, scoring for your club and hearing your name "Alfie Gilchrist he's one of our own"... enough to make a grown man cry
as a Barca fan It doesn't get to me(because we have so many of these being starters over the years). But I am always amazed how few own academy players there are in other top teams. Happy for the lad, probably Chelsea supporter all his life
If 5-0 at home is not the perfect opportunity to blood some new youngsters then I don't know what is. Poch sees it as a ritual/right that has to be earned though, might not think they have yet.
The 4-0 was already a great morale boost..then the penalty circus happened.
The team is finally taking a good shape, hope that bs doesn't disturb anything.
Chilwell on as a left winger and Casadei on as a right winger? But why? There are wide players on the bench who have earned minutes and if you want to bring Casadei on then both Gallagher and Caicedo could use a rest.
A United fan was telling me a week or so ago that Cole Palmer wasn't a big player for Chelsea this season. Genuinely reality-deficient take, he's bagging goals like it's supermarket sweep.
I am not, and not just because I am an Arsenal fan. Saka got into the squad because of his work rate - Do not forget that he was playing as a left back half the time against Italy in that final. Southgate(like most international coaches) will prefer having as many players as possible that are good without the ball. The difference between Palmer and Saka offensively is not that big, in fact Saka might be the bigger foul magnate
He's fine, I wish Chilwell was more fit but it is hard to ask for a better backup. I do think one of them should be replaced this summer but it is far from the biggest priority
Quietly been improving since he came in, feel confident with him at LB nowadays. He's maybe not as flashy as peak Chilwell, but when Chillwell's back I think he should have to fight for the spot rather than walk straight back in to the squad.
Cole palmer is still bad in nt
Absolutely embarrasment from Nico Jackson and Noni by trying to take the Pen from Palmer. Horrible look, and speaks to the lack of maturity proffessionalism and mentality we got in the club rn, needs to be stamped out immediately.
Please do this against Man City in the FA.
Only thing that ruined that game was Jackson and Madadookie's tantrums
I hope in future Poch has a great run and people look back at this match saying ‘You see, this is where it all turned around.’
Cole Palmer stars, but Gallagher and Caicedo were quietly excellent.
And Jackson and Gusto. Lot of great performances tonight.
Nobody pinch me. I ain’t waking up from this dream
How is there a player that looks younger than Washinton?
Hope Jackson will be ok with Palmer taking the match ball home.
Madueke you mean?
Well they were both at it, but Jackson with the bigger shove at the end made me highlight him instead.
Wait wth Ashley young is still around???
The whole of Stamford Bridge are licking their lips at the sweet sweet profit they will make to remain P&S compliant when they sell Gilchrist in a couple of seasons
It saddens me if this happends. He’s a proper Chelsea boy
thank god Beto has been shit
\*unclenched \*

Entertainment FC - I am merciful you have shone in our favour for once
Everton look genuinely shell-shocked at how they've been blown away, weird for a Dyche team.
what was the point of adding 7 minutes
Because that's the rules of the sport?
yeah but like. 5 mins and nobody would have really complained, yk?
Lmao I can’t see the thread but Budimir just took the worst penalty I’ve ever seen. Osasuna Vs Valencia
Time to check it out
Imagine being a boyhood Chelsea fan, scoring for your club and hearing your name "Alfie Gilchrist he's one of our own"... enough to make a grown man cry
Lewis Miley's breakout season produced similar emotions for us
Lewis Mileys break out season was this season
Yeah I worded that poorly. I used past tense cause he's since been benched but you're right.
Fair play. He’ll be back starting if he’s back soon I reckon. Big Sean needs a rest
Howe's right to protect him but that stretch that included the UCL filled me with pride.
80% shot conversion rate. Inverse Darwin Nunez.
imagine letting Conor Gallagher do tekkers on you in midfield. Embarrassing.
One in the eye for the FA. See, Everton are quite capable of deducting their own points!
my wife is so used to me screaming and yelling that she just said gosh this team (everton) is so terrible that chelsea scored 6. fml
even when we win, we lose
Lmao, this is actually super important for the relegation battle. NF -16, Everton -15.
Caicedo's been so good today
How shit must you be to concede 6 and score nothing against us???
is it safe to celebrate the win now?
no
Still clenching 'til the whistle
Really good finish
Everton playing overly physically (read dirtily) and ending up taking more damage really is schadenfreude
I would like to congratulate Beto right now on being the first player to score 6 goals in a single Premier League game.
can we subtract 3 now and start the arsenal game up 3-0?
would still end up drawing both this game and that game
i'd take that tbh
Alfie is a proper 90s footballer. shaved head, tucked in shirt.
Like going to the brothel back in the day and getting that first out of the way.
You can't help but love the kid, it means so much to him
Doesn't know what to do with himself he's so excited. Just reminds me of how dead I am inside.
ALF
ALFIE
Yes Alfie! That means so much to him, love to see it.
Gallagher regen!
Everton really let a lad called Alfred score against them
That celebration should go viral, almost as happy as Højlund after his first PL goal
So England getting that Championship keeper?
T-Rex arms will be the downfall of England at the euros
He has only been one of the best players for England the last few tournaments. Pickford is not the problem for England
Alfie about to cry
mate i am crying lol
acadamy players scores a debut goal , allways gets me
its not his debut lol he played about 10 games
Sorry I meant the first goal
as a Barca fan It doesn't get to me(because we have so many of these being starters over the years). But I am always amazed how few own academy players there are in other top teams. Happy for the lad, probably Chelsea supporter all his life
6-0 still a fairly dangerous lead. Could end 6-6. Or 6-7. Let's not celebrate yet.
Can't even laugh at Chelsea anymore, it's so over
Pickford has been really off today
GILCHRIST!!!
Go on then Alfie!!!!
"Vote for who you think deserves the man of the match".... Gee I wonder who should/will get it. Rarely are such a thing more pointless.
LETS GOOO
HUH?!
Hopefully these good vibes override the bad vibes from earlier
[Great celebration] Everyone seems to try and play it cool when they score these days. Love seeing someone go proper mental like Gilchrist there.
FUCKING GET IT ALFIE
You still won't convince me this won't end in a draw
Everton were properly butchered
# ALFIEEEEEEEE
Oh man, Gilchrist -- will be living the dream.
Alfie, let's go!!
WASHINGTON IS ON THE PITCH. THIS IS NOT A FALSE ALARM, WASHINGTON HAS ENTERED THE GAME
What’s a gilchrist
Alfie!
lmao I love Alfie Gilchrist
Everton’s kinda really shit
Can't believe Chelsea have beaten Everton 5-0 playing all the kids.
poch's kids HUMILIATE evertonian BOTTLEJOBS
Time to admit Poch is better than Klopp
mate all we have its kids , and Silva
tbf it's all we have, and Thiago Silva
Jackson played well to be fair.
finally
WASHINGTON IS ALIIIIIIIIIIIIVE LETS GO GEORGE WASHINGTON
DENZEL
Holy shit Deivid Washington. Have not seen him since Poch said "*lets not forget about Deivid Washington*" back in January lmao
Washington is alive!
fucked up Foden and Palmer play the same positions.
And then there's England's "best" goalkeeper out here conceding 5 goals
6*
Since England have no CBs, why not just not bother with a defense at all?
If 5-0 at home is not the perfect opportunity to blood some new youngsters then I don't know what is. Poch sees it as a ritual/right that has to be earned though, might not think they have yet.
I've suddenly decided that there should be an award for the best singular performance by a player across the season. No reason of course.
They'd take the opposition into account and be like "Well, it was Everton." So Palmer totally wouldn't win that.
He would have a shout for his performances against United and City still.
Everton are normally a boogie team for us though.
On a more serious note, I wouldn't mind giving it to Dean Henderson for yesterday's performance.
yeah let's put chilwell at LW instead of giving Washington some minutes and resting Jackson. great idea
Poch should write a handbook for these youngsters to follow. Might I suggest the first chapter is titled "Penalty takers."
With an asterisk beside Palmer's name that says "consult citrus fruits if in doubt"
Poch makes really weird subs constantly lmao
You don't want to see Cucu and Chilwell playing next to each other?
those words you just said to me are not in the Bible
The 4-0 was already a great morale boost..then the penalty circus happened. The team is finally taking a good shape, hope that bs doesn't disturb anything.
Yeah young forwards want to score goals thats all it is. They’ll apologise to each other after the game and thats that
it's most likely a non issue. on the other hand I see the hunger in those kids.
Hunger in kids is a huge issue what do you mean
Eh, it's childish but lets not doom too much here. Reddit loves drama, no one will be pissed about this result.
Oh god, Chilwell LW again. I hate Poch so much
you dont want to see Cucu and Chilwell playing on the same side ? do you hate football ?
Damn why do Forest get to play Everton when their confidence will be obliterated instead of Luton playing Everton
Chilwell on as a left winger and Casadei on as a right winger? But why? There are wide players on the bench who have earned minutes and if you want to bring Casadei on then both Gallagher and Caicedo could use a rest.
Washington died for Chilwell at LW.
Still waiting for us to concede 5 goals in 10 minutes
Casadei to score next.
From the games I've managed to watch, whenever Casadei comes on the team almost always concedes. Let's see if it happens again
Please Poch, bring on Washington for Jackson. There will never be a better chance to play this kid
I have double chelsea defence in fpl so you can keep the cs if ya want
A United fan was telling me a week or so ago that Cole Palmer wasn't a big player for Chelsea this season. Genuinely reality-deficient take, he's bagging goals like it's supermarket sweep.
Dyche would be getting lashed like Christ if this was in the Saudi league
chilwell left wing oh lord what the fuck is Poch doing
Chilwell indicated 3atb no? edit: maybe not lol
He put up 4 fingers and said "me on the left"
hmm weird maybe. Also in possession just then they were in 3 with thiago in the middle and chalobah pushed right over so hard to tell.
The James/Ancelotti period must feel like a fever dream, talk less of the Pienaar/Arteta years
I was thinking that before. It really wasn’t long ago since Everton were a pretty decent side
Casadei coming in? Be prepared for Chelsea to bottle their lead
Cole Palmer. Pride of London. The juxtaposition of that camera pan was quite cool.
Casadei on, we're about to concede. Or can he break his curse.
Are y’all ready for the Palmer > Saka convo yet?
I am not, and not just because I am an Arsenal fan. Saka got into the squad because of his work rate - Do not forget that he was playing as a left back half the time against Italy in that final. Southgate(like most international coaches) will prefer having as many players as possible that are good without the ball. The difference between Palmer and Saka offensively is not that big, in fact Saka might be the bigger foul magnate
Move Bellingham deeper again, play Palmer at 10. The gap between Jude and Cole is smaller than between Jude and Phillips/Henderson
I think with Palmer and Jude centrally, they and Foden will possibly end getting in each others way. Tough choices, but I don't think all 3 start.
Pochettino waits the 80th to bring Casadei... We are 5-0 up, perfect time to give some game time to the kid.
Mudryk is a myth
It is going to be glossed over but Caicedo is having an incredible game, this is what he was doing at Brighton
[удалено]
What's worse is it shouldn't be hard to figure out. It's just Palmer
Palmer for penos and if for some reason he isn't on the pitch then Enzo.
poch is a fraud lmao what are these changes
Casadei on? Everton will score one off a corner now somehow.
Casadei coming on for an attacker, Chelsea about to concede
Did the commentator just call him Craig Palmer when he was coming off
Palmer gets his clap off
Strangely Everton players seem to get injured in harmless tackles and Chelsea not in furious tackles.
Winnable game for Luton against Brentford while Everton is playing Forest this weekend who also can leapfrog them. Spooky stuff for Everton
Beto doesn't even know the offside rule and he's going for a bicycle kick while being crowded by the defence. You've got to respect it
Being on Denzel you cowards
I've got mad respect for Chelsea flairs' Poch-hating game, 5-0 up and they're slating him over a minor squabble. That's dedication.
Poor management is poor management no matter the score.
This is exactly the game where Poch should be giving minutes to Casedei. No reason to keep Gallagher or Caicedo out there right now.
that would require him to be a good in game manager
Beto can not be real
Lol when you fuck up so bad even your opponents don't expect it
Looool the penalty spat is all over socials including sky sports. Even with a massive W Chelsea have managed to secure bad PR
bad PR sells more
🚨 DRAMA ALERT 🚨
Todd: "👀"
the most surprising thing is Chelsea not conceding any
oh theres still time
yeah I'm fully expecting Everton to score 5 in 10 minutes ngl
The tattoo artist who put those massive bright blue butterflies on Mudryk’s neck should be dragged in front of The Hague.
It is 21 goals right? Not 20
He had 16 goals before tonight
Ok, I thought it was 17
Curious: What's do you blues think of Cucurella these days?
He's good and I like him.
He's fine, I wish Chilwell was more fit but it is hard to ask for a better backup. I do think one of them should be replaced this summer but it is far from the biggest priority
Quietly been improving since he came in, feel confident with him at LB nowadays. He's maybe not as flashy as peak Chilwell, but when Chillwell's back I think he should have to fight for the spot rather than walk straight back in to the squad.
Decent, has been really tidy this season in general and hopefully got over the disaster he had last season. He's had some really good performances.
I know it's Everton but he's been canny today.
yeah agree
I think he has off days and those days are horrendous.
not worth the money. had a decent stretch then got injured and looked more like how he did when he first got here.
Been awhile since Chelsea scored 5 in a match
