Griffon:




Look my friend, there are folks who have been following Chelsea long before you thought of getting yourself a Chelsea Jersey.

These folks run what you call Chelsea unofficial sites, these are pages where everything Chelsea related is presented before the chopping board.

These fellas don't clutch at straws, nah, they don't second guess, nah, they work with facts that are provided to them by trusted sources who work at the club. These folks aren't just writers but years long staunch fans of Chelsea who derive a great deal of Joy writing about the club's politicking and activities.

WAGH, Vital, ChelseaDaft etc are few Chelsea unofficial sites where the truth is spilled cold-blooded.

Daily Fail, Telegraph, Mirror, The Sun etc only write what they are presented with, then their is sensationalism too. You can't read these things all your life, believing you are better of than that fan who reads different stuffs about the club.

So go and get yourself a glass.

When I express my views about the club and what I think is going down in Cobham's upper room, take your time to do some research, not to upload hogwash.
I forgive you for your first paragraph..


However it doesn't change the fact that emenalo is the one that runs the club, or influence decisions against new coaches. I don't need to read hogwash from " unofficial " sites . I have sense and always knows how a hierarchy works..

PS: the same emenalo who have always been a "scape goat" when blame of the board arises, asked to resign during the second coming of mourinho. What happened ? The whole board rejected his request. Emenalo is a valuable assets in the club, that the boards know can't be replaceable.

Where is that okemiri now? I admired that guy those years. The day i learnt he was playing with one eye, i couldnt believe it. Muri ogunbiyi was exciting too, sad he opted for benin rep.



If van dijk and sandro join, ake's chances of breaking diminish. I believe there must be a buy-back clause. I use him on pes, these days. cheesy



If we buy mahrez or insigne, then willian may force his exit. I dont think he will be happy playing sparsely. None of these guys coming will join chelsea, without assurance of regular play time.

I like insigne more..

The last time I watched Okemmiri, he was representing Nigeria in a beach soccer tournament.

TOP 10 FACTS ABOUT LACAZETTE

Top French marksman

The striker scored 28 Ligue 1 goals in 2016; the best total for a French forward in a single calendar year since Jean-Pierre Papin notched the same number in 1991. smiley

Clinical finisher

Lacazette held the highest chance conversion rate in Europe's top five leagues last season (38.9 per cent), beating RB Leipzig striker Timo Werner (34.4 per cent) and Monaco forward Radamel Falcao (33.9 per cent). shocked

European champion

He scored the winning goal in the 2010 European U19 Championship, heading home against Spain to seal a 2-1 victory for France. Current Arsenal midfielder Francis Coquelin was also in that French team. cheesy

Emirates experience

Less than 24 hours after the victory over Spain, Lacazette played in the Emirates Cup for Lyon, arriving 10 minutes before the warm-up and starting the match against Celtic.

Puel's prodigy

The France international came through the youth ranks at Lyon and was handed his debut by former Southampton manager Claude Puel.

Footballing family

His cousin Romuald Lacazette plays for 1860 Munich in Germany and his older brother played in the Swiss second division before moving into coaching.

Penalty box predator

Of his 28 Ligue 1 goals last season, just two came from outside the penalty area. grin

International goalscorer

Lacazette scored his only France goal to date in a 2-0 win over Denmark at the Stade Geoffroy-Guichard, home of Lyon's fierce rivals St Etienne.

Arsenal comparison

Lacazette scored 28 league goals last season, more than Olivier Giroud, Theo Walcott, Danny Welbeck and Lucas Perez combined. grin

In good company

Since the 2012/13 season, only nine forwards have scored more goals in Europe's top five leagues. They are Lionel Messi, Cristiano Ronaldo, Luis Suarez, Zlatan Ibrahimovic, Robert Lewandowski, Edinson Cavani, Gonzalo Higuain, Pierre-Emerick Aubameyang and Sergio Aguero. smiley


At the bolded names: as a striker if your name is not among the names listed there . lacazette is a better than you..

What efl and fa cup matches? If he is as talented as you all claim he should be replacing John Terry for _fucks sake? Is he not Eric baillys mate at 22? His mates are already doing 40 games plus a season.... Or na another hype man?

I totally agree with you bro but,we ain't Conte. He will be the one to choose his starting 11 plus substitute for each game not us so,we have zero input or influence here.

Secondly with the two additions we are hoping to make defensively it will be extremely difficult not to restrict some players to efl and fa cup matches pending when injury or suspension comes up.

I beg to differ at the bolded. You can't say emenalo is indispensable at Chelsea. What major achievement of note has he made at Chelsea?

That the board refused his resignation wasn't down to his supposed invincibility but the fact that the board had already lost 2 key board members that summer. Ron Gourlay and purslow. read below for better details.

I would just say emenalo must be a very good negotiator (sugar-coated tongue) and diplomat to have remained at the top for such a long period of time. Seriously how can you say he is indispensable? shocked

Costa just HAS to go and Batshuayi may also depart, We need a proven quality replacement for Costa but there should be room for Traore. Now we're back in Europe we'll need three strikers to compete.

We always sell players before they're given a decent chance to prove themselves with us and, largely thanks to Emanalo, they're sold at the wrong price. £16m might seem a lot but just look at some of those we've offloaded at a "good price" recently and what they're valued at today. Lukaku, De Bruyne, Bertrand, Salah, Cudrado; and all with no sell on fee or buy back clause. How about we keep Traore and let Emanalo go on a free?.......

You are right. There was one pint-sized attacker too that played like messi. He moved to sudan after shinning for a season then. I have forgotten his name. After the era of duke udi at shooting stars, enyimba was the next local team i followed, especially their continental matches. The millions kalu spent on them, pushed those guys to deliver.

Willian wouldn't be happy sitting on the bench, as we approach world cup year. Bringing another massive winger is good for the team, but a bad signal for willian. Ake, restricted to efl and fa cup, is dangerous for his development at this stage.

Back then, we'll make a lil' hole through a tomato tin, insert a broom stick through it and pull it with an elastic material like rubber..then once it's released, the stick will hit the target, and the impact is always painful. This how he lost his eye

Emenalo is a loyalist just like mikel. They can be told to go here or sit there and they obey without complain. This reason is the cause of their longevity in the team not that they are too good in what they do.

Wow. Thats gross. There was a time i learnt he couldn't get signed abroad cos of his eye problem. He played lb comfortably. Ajibade was a bit stronger, but okemiri was more sleek.

Ndidi Anumunu, Joetex Frimpong, Emeka Ezenwa, Ajibade Omolade ( Enyimba's Azpilicueta grin), the late Romanus Orjinta etc.

I remember the 2004 2nd leg of the final in Cairo (Vs Ismaili) - Ezenwa (the lone striker) defended from the front for 90mins.

Like you rightly opined, Uzor Kalu's love for the club had no bounds that time - he was even willing to buy Ismaili's Dramane Traore (hottest CF in Africa then) cheesy

Auba isn't that good on the wing. He's far better as a striker. I prefer Insigne out of the three.. His style is kind of similar to David Silva but a better scorer.
