Chelsea Booed Heavily At Stamford Bridge After Another Dreadful Loss
Full time. 1-0 Southampton. Chelsea have lost to a team in last place, without a manager.
It’s a new low for this manager, a new low for the club under this ownership, and perhaps a new low over 25 year horizon. We’re not sure on the stats, but it feels a long time since we were this hopeless.
As you’d expect, the mutterings of discontent at half time were followed by a monster chorus at boos at full time, and the players trudged off. You can’t say those fans haven’t been patient. They are watching this rubbish week after week.
If anything, the concern over the health of Cesar Azpilicueta and the 12 minute delay while he was treated on the pitch saved Potter from worse, with the rising anger in the stadium delayed and then diluted by concern for the captain.
Regardless, the venom reached a new level today, and that was clearly audible at full time.
