‘Don’t mention the VAR!’ Chelsea FanCast #517
Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd, Dean Mears and Dayne Whittle to look back at Chelsea's defeat to Bayern Munich in the Champions' League to draw the curtain on the 2019/20 season at last.
On the show tonight, we discuss defensive errors costing us again; VAR ruining football again; Tammy getting on the scoresheet and who else came out of it with any credit?
In part two we muse on the fact that it was a good effort in a tough situation with Bayern perhaps the standard to which we should aspire. But how? Is it as simple as replacing the defence? We need goals from midfield and a spine in the team with leaders surely?
In part three, we round up by saying obrigado Willian e adeus as the number 10 with the braziliant afro finally announces his departure after 7 years and we discuss our final thoughts on the season.
In part four we wrap up with your emails.
