We are languishing in 10th, 8 points behind ‘struggling’ Man United. Defense is leaking goals, attack is largely misfiring and players are losing discipline.

The mentality has also become like that of a mid-table team. Nothing in and around the club screams world class at the moment.

I just don’t find many differences between Chelsea and say, Crystal Palace (apart from the wages and all). As fans, should we also have a mid-table mindset? Satisfied with draws against the big boys and finishing the season with 45-50 points?

    If you could somehow be 10.5^th then you’d truly be in the middle.

    Chelsea aren’t “midtable,” they are “underperforming wealthy club.” The difference between Palace and Chelsea is that Chelsea can hope to regain their previous heights whereas Palace probably can’t compete to win the PL or the CL in the near future.
