Currently, both Chelsea and Manchester United are dealing with internal issues affecting their gameplay, despite having quality players on their squads. In the case of Erik ten Hag, player confidence has been shaken due to some questionable decisions regarding player selection. As for Mauricio Pochettino, he hasn't yet figured out the right gameplay for Chelsea. If this situation doesn't improve soon, both teams might find themselves struggling in the relegation battle.
I agree with you on this point. Chelsea is lacking experienced players who can serve as true leaders, guiding the team's style of play. It seems like all of Chelsea's players are somewhat lost and unable to fully utilize their strengths at the moment.

Who knows the injured players are the right player for them, but still I belive in does players that if they return they will make a different. Even though it not an excuse for them but their performance is really very poor, and must of new player will gradually be adapting with style of playing.

Nobody wants to be in the poor state that they are because of circumstances that must have been considered to bring about that situation.  In a difficult competitive atmosphere, everyone does their hardest to be in a better position than their competitors. They simply need to put in more effort to improve the quality of their play in order to compete with the other teams in the league.

Chelsea are currently in such awful form that it's difficult to pinpoint the source of the problem. Is it the players' fault or the manager's fault now? I've seen a lot of effort from all sides to rebuild this squad and continue working. But their efforts have yet to bear fruit; perhaps we should all give them more time to improve.

I forgot the injury factor of the players thanks remind you friend because some Chelsea players as we know some players have to be in the treatment room a little longer like Nkunku, Fofana, Broja or Badiashile indeed it is annoying but on the other hand even if some of their players are in the treatment room but linking it to the overall poor performance this time it still makes no sense because until today Chelsea is bad with the excuse of player injuries actually it is too exaggerated because in fact their own performance is bad and cannot blame the injured players with their current performance.

Honestly, I am also confused about this Chelsea, what happened to them, right in the middle of other clubs performing better and gradually rising from the standings by being able to give a pretty good performance, but Chelsea is still far from expectations, they are even worse and almost at the bottom of the bottom order. Obviously this is even worse than last season, it is only natural that Blues fans are disappointed with their performance, in fact the huge money Todd has spent means nothing and there is even no progress at all from this club.

In my opinion there is absolutely no benefit gained by Todd except for deep disappointment, I understand Pochettino is a pretty good coach and he has enough experience handling English league clubs, but why and what is wrong with Chelsea. Are they really having problems in terms of adaptation of all their new players? I don't know but I say this has been going on for a long time and there should be a little progress from them. I hope Pochettino will really be able to handle the problems at his club.

MANCHESTER UNITED AND CHELSEA FC, which is better or which will have a better season?

We all saw and understood how last season was among the worst season of Chelsea Football Club in the recent time. After the change of management and successive change of coaches, they were unable to end above the top 10 in last season's English Premier League. For the fact that they bought many new talents, we expected them to perform better this season but to my surprise Chelsea is still struggling to play good football.
In the other hand, Manchester United my club did very well under their coach Eric who was new then. Everyone expected that they will consolidate their performance this season,  but this season is trying to be a different story for them.

Between Manchester United and Chelsea, who do you think will have a better season?

It seems there are several problems that make Chelsea performance so poor. First, the transition to change ownership to Todd Boehly has changed the club principles. Even though Boehly is not stingy with money, maybe even a little more profligate than Roman Abramovich, his ideas are different and his philosophy is different. Second, Chelsea is bringing in too many young players. As a measure of competency in the Premier League, clubs need experienced players to be able to perform optimally and be able to compete to win the title. Third, the absence of veteran players at the club makes it difficult for young players to find role models. From a technical perspective, they also don't understand each other. However, if you look at the individual quality of Chelsea young players, they are not that bad. However, the chemistry has not yet been achieved.

The red card issue actually destabilized the entire game plan for Chelsea, from the replay of that tackle, and if it were to be some referee they might have considered that tackle as not a red card offense but should have been decided as a yellow card offense rather, the tackle in my opinion was not that intentional as they offender went for the ball first before matching on the opponents leg.  Anyways, performance was bad and Chelsea did have ample opportunity to have gotten a goal but they couldn't utilize any.

Anyone will definitely be annoyed with Chelsea's performance this season, because as a big club their existence is increasingly far from what they previously showed in the Premier League. Losing to Aston Villa continued to make matters worse, and I saw several clips of Chelsea fans expressing their emotions in front of the media.

But how will Todd Beohly react to his club? just focused on calculating what profits he could gain from a club that was starting to collapse. As a result, who is now experiencing great pressure? The coach and all Chelsea players were bombarded with criticism from fans. We are not yet sure that Chelsea will be fine, a very drastic setback at the start of the season has left them in the position they deserve to be in.

Answer me, which the good players that should be played on the field?

In goalkeeper position, they don't have any choice aside David Raya.

In defender positions, they do have many players, but as good as defenders are playing, it has less relation to score a goal or prevent from get scored by opponent.

In midfielder positions, they have Enzo, Gallagher, Caicedo, Ugochukwu, and Palmer, all of them are similar.

In striker positions, they have Sterling, Jackson, Mudryk, Broja and de Souza, two good players and three bad players.

A red card in the game between Chelsea Aston villa was very much avoidable but it was sad Chelsea got the card regardless, I don't know if to blame it on the player or anyone but one thing I think for sure was that it was very unnecessary at that point, there are other big team they will get a red card against and I will see it as worth it to an extent but not for a team like Aston villa.

I can't stop expressing my disappointment towards Chelsea on that game as everything about that particular got me really sick, this is because they were my favorite for that game and I was very optimistic about them because I felt having had so many loss earlier they would want to make up for it with that game but they did not only losses the game they as well played very poorly.

Some persons are of the opinion that the coach could not have been playing the players in their rightfull position but then I don't think it is as almost same thing can be seen in real Madrid where they don't have good strikers at the moment but other are trying their possible best to fit in and they are getting desired results enough to keep the team going and hopefully to get better so I don't think that should be excuse enough with Chelsea they are just not good at the moment and needs every improvement necessary.

  I think both clubs didn't come out from the Championship league prepared because they should had known by now that the EPL is not one of those farmers league, over there the competition is very tough, and you'll need to be fierce against other teams to survive,and that's why Fulham, Wolverhampton and Bournemouth have survived so far, these are smaller teams compared to the EPL big 6 but are capable of causing problems to bigger teams when they underestimated them.

 However Burnley are more better than luton, they play good football buy don't have quality attackers for good finishing and that's why they've been unable to score goals in their matches, I  feel Burnley might manage to escape relegation this season but Luton Town are not prepared for the EPL and needs to go back to the championship league.

Chelsea mainly lacks the experience of the players on the field which the coach fails to fill. However, in most of the games that have been held at the beginning of this season, Chelsea have been forced to lose due to the lack of strikers and defensive players. Because the team's performance at the beginning of the season is very poor, so of course, despite spending a lot of money, the players have not improved. So again the players should be trained by a good experienced coach then the Chelsea team players will regain their strength and the Chelsea team will roar again this season.

I also said this in my previous comment. There are at least two teams that they could beat in the battle for relegation.

They've conceded a lot of goals against City and Spurs so that's understandable. I agree on working or their defense more because that will also build confidence for players and they can go from there.

Joao Felix did not under perform, I am forced to agree with you that it has to be the environment and the bad results dropping the mentality and results of these players off and on the field.
He was the fastest player to adapt to Chelsea last season. He also gave his best on his debut only to be red carded due to his own recklessness.
Chelsea sold big players they had last season. They are the only club in the premier league with the best deal during the transfer period.
They have brought in players but will take some number of years to blend into Chelsea's long term goals.

I would like to see that burnley to compete with some teams stay in the premier league like chelsea and everton. The newly promoted teams are not showing impressive performances. They were not as strong as fulham, forest or even bournemouth.
I think that luton and sheff U will be relegated again. We may able to see leicester city to come back again to the EPL next season.

It's caused by leicester is still leading the championship table. I would rather than hope ipswitch to replace luton. Luton was not able competing in EPL. The quality owned by this club is still far below EPL clubs.
Luton needs to rebuild its club again. I think that if luton and sheffield have biggest potential to back again into the championship league.

It's just the matter of time till they will be going back to the what it should be.

Yeah obviously Chelsea has a very strong players they are actually almost the same way they are when they were performing well but I don't no why they seem to be losing matches all the time, but although just like you said the season has not yet ended but they still have more time to recover, years ago Chelsea performance was like that of Manchester City now that time Chelsea can hardly lose match and there performance are very good but now they hardly win a match but perhaps could it be that Chelsea needs to sign more good strikers or work on there self, if they can figure out there loophole the team will be back again with there fighting spirit.

So should having patience mean we shouldn't be winning matches and losing against teams other top teams will be destroying. I won't have had an issue with Chelsea losing against top teams because we don't have their level of quality but when we lose against teams that are having their worst form it begins to call for concerns because it means something isn't happening right and we have to look at the manager because was hired him to get the team working great again. We got spoiled by Roman Abramovich but when he was incharge the team had a focused, we didn't just sign any players that we want as Todd Boehly is doing now. We signed players that the coach demanded for and it always worked out because they coach must have studied the player and knew he'll fit into his playing system very well but now the coaches have to find way to fit players they didn't sign into their system.


Chelsea can't even come back from a 1 goal losing position, how then can we call ourselves a big club again. We'll be losing 1 goals to a side that previously we would had beaten them without much stress and you think the fans will be happy. What would have happen if Roman Abramovich was incharge is all the coaching staffs will be sacked and a manager with proven history will be signed. He would have gone for the previous Bayern Munich coach that was out of job during the period Thomas tuchel was appointed as their new manager instead of going for Pochettino that had a failed career at Tottenham and PSG. Todd Boehly is out to destroyed our beloved club because from his decision so far, it's looking like he's mostly interested in the business side of the club instead of making us title contenders. Why is he just signing youngsters, I believe he's doing this to sell them later for profits.

Chelsea fans must remain realistic that this transition process will take quite a long time, I would not take seriously Mauricio Pochettino talk of wanting to guarantee Chelsea a start to the season. Building a club from scratch is not an easy thing, when these changes occur Mauricio Pochettino must be prepared for the risk of a bad start. At least at the end of the season, Chelsea can at least enter the top 10 for a while. Because if you want more than that, you need to realize that the current squad cannot fulfill the fans' big ambitions.

No matter how bad Chelea performance is, they will not fall into the relegation zone, let alone end up in the second caste. We will give the coach a season or 2 to develop, there are still games left that will definitely require Chelsea to develop as well as possible. I know Chelsea's condition is quite worrying, it's not clear where it's going. However, Pochettino also has to adapt to the standards of his players. So what needs to be done is to build a more harmonious relationship between players and coaches. I mean, Pochettino puts himself too far in his shoes, but sometimes he needs to build trust from awareness, not from demands.

Pochettino recently asking to the owner that he personally asked for more time to improve the team's condition because Pochettino still sure he can do more for Chelsea and the rumour is his future will be determined in the next 2 matches while Chelsea will fight against Brighton on Carabao Cup this Wednesday and against Fulham this weekend and if Pochettino unable to bringing Chelsea to gets the winning results from those matches then most likely he will be sacked and lost his job

This summer Pochettino has spend a lot of money to bought the players but Chelsea performance is very far from what is expected even they had similar issues just like last season that their attacking lines is so weak that scores 5 goals from 6 matches in Premier league is really not showing they are big team in Premier league and if we see from their current position in the standings league the target to reach top 4 seems almost near to impossible to be realized
