    So Farke and another manager do the job part time one for the championship and the other for the prem, alternate years?

    Today this doesn't matter. But in a tight game, it might. Yet another problem 'small teams' face, as if the massive difference in wealth wasn't enough.

    Where do we go from here? Two goals scored and 22? conceded. At this rate we will score 8 - 10 goals and accumulate 8 - 10 points easily a EPL record for the wrong reason. Has DF lost the dressing room or are we just simply awful?

    well played Chelsea. We were dreadful. Possibly the most inept performance since vs Colchester. Can we nick Tuchel?

    I suspect Farke is conflicted about how to approach this league. After last time, he doubts that the attractive passing style will work, but he doesn't really buy into the more defensive style he's trying to play now, and that conflict within him is feeding into the players who don't know quite what they are meant to do.

    Just a suggestion.

    The ref has really enjoyed himself today we were bad but he punished us for anything he could surprised he didn't send off Krul for saving the penalty

    At the end of the day this isn’t the type of game that will define whether we stay up or not, but the players and manager have to take this as a kick up the arse and do something this season. It’s not too late but needs to be a big reaction next week.

    But he’s bought better players now to play our system so surely that’s what he should be doing

    Me too, I think we are just all thankful it’s over.

    Chelsea are top of the Premier League for a reason and we are bottom for a reason.

    Let’s not overthink this though. Southampton lost 9-0 at home to Leicester and still stayed up.

    But he's not playing them. Can you imagine the Farke we see in the Championship ignoring a player who he described as 'potentially world class' and keeping him on the bench? He's lost belief in his own style of play and that's feeding through to the players.

    Watching the yank coverage with Robbie Earl Tim Howard and some retired ref , they said it's unacceptable that we keep going up and don't show enough ambition in the transfer market .

    More clueless morons
