The two major things Pochettino did well in the attack yesterday that gave us the win, he benched your Sterling and brought in Chukwuemeka and Madueke to boost the attack. This is a temporary fix until summer when we do a permanent surgical operation on the attack by chasing your useless Sterling away, and get Jackson's upgrade to bang in goals.

For the umpteenth time, you win matches by outscoring your opponents. Kudos to Palmer, Madueke, Chukwuemeka, Mudryk and Pochettino for shaming you, despite the disasters at the back.


Pochettino benched Sterling against Burnley. What happened?

Players like Carrick, Busquet, Jorginho are not always rated highly by fans but by their team mates and managers.

Jorginho has declined no doubt but he was a world class player by all metric. You don't win Euros, UCL, UEFA best player and finish 3rd in balondor by luck, never!!!

I think Pep wanted him to be his DM at a point but that's not really where I'm driving at...

My point is this, the fact that those playing with him, coaching him and the UEFA technical team suggest he was the best at a point, then he did alot right.

Is he currently world class? No. Was he world class definitely yes!!!

You don't get all those accolades by luck at this level!

Hmm I'll beg to differ on Jorginho.

At best he was a very good player. A single stellar season does not make you world class. Even in the so-called stellar season, no one who watched Jorgi during the Chelsea UCL and Italy Euro campaign thought in real time that they were watching a potential world best player. It was more of an afterthought at season end that wait a minute, Jorginho is a common factor in both winning campaigns so he must be so, so and so. And after that season, he never truly won fans hearts with his displays both in club and country.

For context, Victor Osimhen is not considered world class despite a stellar last season. David Beckham despite ending up on the world best podium on 2 occasions was considered not world-class by Fergie (though I disagree personally cos Beckham was one of the most impactful midfielders in the world between 98/99 to March 2002 when that Deportivo player broke his leg) but this is just to illustrate that just being very good doesnt automatically make you world class.

To be world class is to show consistently high levels of quality both on the easy and toughest stages over a long time regardless of trophies (although they are an added advantage). This is why Harry Kane and Son are considered World class.

We have world class talents from young ages though, like Owen, Rooney, Pato, Robinho, Bellingham, Neymar, Mbappe, Rice, Mikel Obi. Not all of them went on to seal their world class status though. Foden has world class talent, however time will tell whether he progresses this into a bona-fide world beater. Personally, I think he's almost there and by next season if he replicates this level, his world class status will not be in doubt.

Saka is still not yet world class. Same as Palmer and Rodrygo. They are just very good players.

8 mentions from Popizaino and they are all incoherent. I wonder how all those meaningless mentions negates what I said.

A player who plays for a competitive club capable of challenging for major trophies must show consistent high performance and win trophies for his team.

Kane has shown consistent level of high performance for more than 10 years and can be excused for not winning trophies due to not playing for a big team. Obviously, if he played for a big team all these years, he would have had enough trophies.

Same Ballack who has won multiple trophies with Bayern and also won the EPL with Chelsea? Is that not a testament to my claim that world class players win trophies with their competitive teams?

And against Burnley, your useless Sterling later came to waste the biggest chance to win it at 2-2, to Palmer's dismay. Boy had to voice out.

The introduction of Madueke and Chukwuemeka yesterday completed the job as it created overload on Scummies and they cracked.

Pochettino did what we asked for temporarily and our attack outscored United despite our disasters at the back. By summer, we should sack your Sterling permanently.

Don't worry, we will fix our attack permanently by summer and start scoring better goals, maybe it will take your pains away.

I don't understand how this isn't clear.

Highest goal scorer- Palmer
Highest assister - Palmer
Highest big chances created - Palmer
Highest shots per game - Palmer
Highest shot accuracy per game - Palmer.
Highest throughball per game - Palmer

How is one man both the only finisher and only creator in the same team, when we're not Kane Era Tottenham?

We are Palmer fc.

The prayer is for Palmer not to get injured. Injured, that's when they will understand that without Palmer our attack is not better than Sheffield's.

Keep that respect, i don't need your confirmation on what i know about myself. So carry along are also worldclass player by virtue of being fortunate to be in a winning team right?

Maybe the last time Assnal had a worldclass player is when they last won the golden epl according to your nauseating logic.

What trophy did Ballack win prior to being named the uefa midfielder of the year in 2002?


Where is Harry kane's trophy to be classified as a world class and don't give me your own cock and bull excuse of not so big team because that's why there is europa,FA cup....if big teams are to win the major ones before we can categorise their players as world class then small teams also need to win the minor ones like europa and Fa Cup. Thus where is Harry Kane's trophy with spurs?

Defence failure and organisation.

You guys were up 2-nil and guys here were already saying the defence will concede, yet they didn't just concede one but 3.

Who even gave that backpass to Garnacho?
Was it not Caicedo (a DM) if I'm not mistaken?

Since Silva wasn't available, you guys have been conceding goals like water. I believe it wouldn't have been this worse if he's present


Forget all these ones that's saying defenders shouldn't point? Na wetin dey cause all these kind goals yet you'll find out not one Defender is at fault (yet goals go dey enter)

Like guy, no single communication between those two central defenders. They will have you think one is Serbian and the other one from from south America not knowing both of them are french but they can't even communicate with one and other.

Only you and his critics think this.

We have had the extensive argument on here sometime back, you can go back and check the thread.

They tried to give the Italy accolade to Verratti, the argument was torn apart, Ditto, Kante.

No need rewriting history.

Thunder go fire you for this statement in bold

Is there any Chelsea fan that doesn't know Kante was far and above the player of our UCL run. His MOTM in every game confirms it

Nobody gave Verratti the most accolade. italy won by penalties in semi and final and the accolade rightly went to their goalkeeper. Donnaruma was player of the tournament confirmed by UEFA while Kante was player of the tournament for UCL.

What is leader in defence? Did Arsenal sign Gabriel or Saliba because of leadership conference they got first class in? For all you care Gabriel and Saliba might not even speak English when they first got to Arsenal but we immediately saw the improvement

Defence is a doing act not by point.

Its show not tell

Gabriel is a natural leader

In Arsenal, Odegaard is the captain but Gabriel lead all the team talks

You haven't asked me any question.

You said, and I quote



Which I literally did.

Last season our top 5 goal scorers in the league scored a combined 23 EPL goals.

This season, when you remove Palmer's goals, the combined next top 5 scorers in the league have produced a combined 25 EPL goals.

Nicolas Jackson, the next highest goal scorer in our team has 9 goals. Cole Palmer assisted 4 of those. Not only is Ice Cold carrying the goal burden for this club, he is also responsible for spoon feeding half of the next guy's goal output.

If there's a point you're trying to make, I think you should take a facts based, stats based position, and then make your argument.

Attempting to socialise Big Brr's contribution this season is a foul. Ice Cold is carrying this team solo.

If you remove Palmer's G+A, this team is in a relegation battle ...facts.

BTW, we scored 38 goals last season. We have 53 goals this season. That's a 15 goal margin...that's a Cole sized gap.
You still haven't answered my question.

How many goals did we concede last season and how many have we conceded this season?

Palmer this and that like say no be e work e dey do
