'Ain't No Love in the Heart of the City' Chelsea FanCast #451

Stamford Chidge is joined by Jonathan Kydd and Liam Twomey, ESPN's Chelsea correspondent to look back at a very disappointing and somewhat mutinous night at Stamford Bridge where Man Utd knocked Chelsea out of the FA Cup.


On the show tonight we discuss the nightmare at Stamford Bridge, Sarri’s shortcomings, the substitutions and the increasing toxicity and vitriol aimed at the manager by the supporters who he seems to have lost.

 

In part two we ask does Sarri have to go now? Is his position untenable? Is the situation worse than it was with Rafa, AVB and Scolari? What must happen to limit the damage and what potential replacements are there longer term. Zidane and Laurent Blanc have been mentioned in dispatches but what about Frank Lampard?

 

In parts three and four, as you can imagine we have had loads of emails with Chelsea supporters venting their spleen at what’s going on with the club so we have dedicated two parts to read them all out! It's all part of the therapy!

He also learns to referee himself, experiencing first-hand the speed and scrutiny that come with every call.Through defining matches and controversial decisions, he examines the influence of VAR, how referees judge fouls, and the excruciatingly fine margins between control and chaos.And he looks into the issues between Chelsea and Anthony Taylor with a little help from Chidge, JK and Dan Silver!You can purchase the book on Amazon here
