Chelsea win trophies.

Have you been going up to now?

Let's not bother qualifying then.

The curse of Sky and the Sky generation.

Somebody went to B&Q and bought some paint for the away end.

Yes of course but choose any match and you will find what if moments. The manager doesn't give the cups the same importance as league games. This was reflected in the team selection and more significantly the performance of the players.

Nonsense. We all think the world of Pochettino but he isn't above criticism. He got it wrong.

That's called being damned with faint praise. You might have said he wastes his intelligence on kn@b jokes.

This is what I'm struggling to understand. What's the strategy. What's the objective? Beats me.

Assuming the club continues on its current path of continuos improvement, I believe that neither of today's CBs will be at the club next season.

It will be interesting to see what response to this you get from the 800 plus that made the journey up there.

Shades of Saints/Sunderland about our recent encounters with West Ham. Happy to be coming out of Upton Park with 3 points next week but it will need some leadership from the Manager and a reaction from the players.

If the Manager doesn't rate the FA Cup and doesn't like the Europa League, what are we aiming for?

I think you may have misunderstood the purpose of message boards.

You are missing the point.

Please. It's because the Manager doesn't give the cup the same importance as the league. He sets the tone and it was the to see what that was. Take another example. He doesn't do the media for cup matches. That sends a powerful signal to everyone from the players down.

Totally agree.

Sorry but that argument just doesn't stand up. The FA Cup is an end in itself which we the fans want to win. Play a weakened side in Europe if it bothers Pochettino so much.

Get fined then.

That's what I think. No idea why this match wasn't given top priority.

It's not generational. It's incomprehensible.

Pochettino doesn't rate the competition. The performance reflects that. This one's down to the manager. Very, very angry with that.

Should have enough to beat them.

Such wit. You sound like you are down to your last marble. Is Global Warming getting to you?

Your comment made me laugh. Sadly I think you may be serious.
