Kieran Gill: Have noticed how Chelsea’s players have started performing their pre-KO huddle slap bang in the middle of the centre circle rather than in their own half. It’s one of a few ideas conjured up by Willie Isa in conjunction with the squad’s leadership group incl Reece James

feels like a monty Python sketch
Willie Isa doesn’t even feel like a real name
dumb idea
Brilliant!
Stop doing it because we only lose now.
I sincerely hope that took about 20 seconds and they’ve been spending time worrying about pressing, scoring and marking. Could be wrong.
Have we actually won a game since we started doing this? Did we do it against Villa?
Doing it against Villa and putting in a great performance was fine. Doing it against psg and not doing too badly till the final 20 was also not that bad. Doing it vs a Newcastle team with no midfield and their best players out and not even scoring a goal at home is embarrassing.
Huddles ain’t gonna make shit players good
What’s the point?
If you split the word, Hud- and -dle, you get the meaning and…
yeah I’ve got nothing
People need to just stop talking.
Has anyone figured out what Willie actually does? I’ve read he’s a support role for players (whatever that mean) ranging to being some motivational / leader role?
Honestly who cares a eff , we lost today and this is not even in my mind
At this point were just looking like fucking pussies, if we did it and stomped all over opposition we would look like assholes, there’s a big difference!

Can we win a fucking game
Utter woke shite, feels like some cringe shit Arsenal would do
Embarrassing and doesn’t actually do anything. See also Rosenior handing out paper notes to players
Projects failing. Nothing changed from 3 seasons ago, awful recruitment with inexperienced managers and players…new are going nowhere
….and we are talking about where they do the fuckin huddles.
Main issue with this now, is that its pissing off the refs. We should not be annoying refs, especially at the beginning of the game – theyre naturally going make shitty decisions against us because they dont like us. Just stop doing it
The huddle is a bit dumb but harmless, the reaction to it is ludicrous
I can see an opposition player standing on the centre circle to disrupt this
Although harmless, it does feel performative and why does it need to be in the centre circle, does doing it else where decrease player unity.
This is one of those things that’s great when we’re winning but look absolutely foolish when we’re wank.
It’s fucking cringe
Since they started doing that has anything good happened?
The huddle is fucking cringe , we don’t see proper teams doing that
