These are players that have started for Chelsea for years and years and years.

And they've done a really good job at balancing their exit and kind of teasing it out and getting ready for that to happen, bringing in the players over the last couple of seasons.

Last season, most of these players weren't even starting other than Sam Kerr.

So I think there's a lot to say and a lot of meat on the bone to maybe argue we're bad at handling transition.

And again, that comes...

maybe it's not the manager.

I think that comes on the back rooms where it's like, we didn't know if we were giving Katie McCabe or Beth made a new contract until very late on in the season.

And then the managers left in a position where it's like, those are my starting players.

Now I have to kind of implement these, this fresh blood into the team because I've been given no option to have any sort of transition period because

And that falls on the recruitment team, the indecisiveness, it's lackluster, it's lazy.

And I do think that that is then the managers and the playing groups problem when it could, business just needs to be done earlier.

This needs to be a plan.

You need to look ahead 18 months and say, okay, what is this team going to look like in 18 months and which of these players are going to play a role in it?

So that's frustrating.

So I think that you can give the playing group a little bit of time, but these performances against two pretty poor sides, I think are unforgivable when you have so many stars.

So yeah, I'm kind of lying in the middle, but also more angry than forgiving.

Thank you, guys.

Thank you, everyone.

Thank you, Tim, for sticking with

bad week.
