It hasn't just been the media lamenting a lack of quality at Chelsea this season; fans have been equally up in arms at some of the poor performances we have seen at Stamford Bridge.
Guus Hiddink has gone so far as to label Chelsea's season a "football disaster."
Reigning Premier League champions Chelsea may have been this term, but they didn't quite live up to that billing. It's meant that the successes of players who never quite made the grade at the club or were sold on too early have hit the spotlight.
For every goal a current striker missed, Chelsea fans were being reminded of a frontman they let go who was hitting the back of the net with aplomb.
