With the Blues preferring to have a three-man defence and wing-backs, there is room for just two central midfielders, who as a result have a higher physical workload.

That perhaps explains why metronomic playmaker Jorginho - Best FIFA Men's Player and UEFA Player of the Year in 2021 after inspiring Chelsea to the Champions League and Italy to the Euro 2020 title - at times looks ill-suited to the style of play, forced into 'grunt work' rather than manipulating the ball and keeping things ticking over.

It's fans preference, name any other proven quality attacker with low transfer fees & wages that can fit our team.

The point is, it is just an effort in futility because those at the helms of recruitment does not hear nor sees it

Sarr, alonso to follow suit. Hearing rumours about Odoi, e better be true...Barkley & batshuayi agents are dulling us.
I'd let Rlc for this season,At least a squad player for Rwb/ cdm.. Depay & Frankie can be very good additions. I hope ampadu stays

Fans keep linking Depay to Chelsea when no outfit has reported such.

Mount too is not creative nor possessive, he can only square play, run, play corner or shoot one thousand times inside crowd. These guys don’t understand what Tuchel is going through with this half players.

Much pleasing to hear this.

We need to come to the reality and acknowledge Mount is not serving us what he ought serve us in midfield activities.

He is as well a culprit.

The problem is Jorg, he is not existence, mostly against an intense opposition, he can’t do his primary duty of possessing and progressing the play nor can he protect the defense when we are being attacked. He is thin and easily dominated by any half decent midfielder.

In as much as he is one of the holders of the position, midfield where we are finding this fault, i agree he is a culprit.

However, we need to come with equity and say the same of Kante. As many faults and weaknesses we can identify in Jorginho, we should not exonerate Kante; too many misplaced passes, and his decision making in the final third is below par.

I don't know what is actually responsible for the less action we do witness in our midfield while the bulk of it is seen on the flank.

Quite unimaginable that Iwobi drafted into a new position entirely had much of the ball and action in the midfield yesterday.

Is it the combo of Jorginho/Kante or the none involvement of Mount or the 3-4-3 formation?

I don't know actually.

All these players are corpse that are no strangers to burial sites. How on earth should we put our hopes in them.

Though, among them, i have soft spot for Armando Broja. Hoping he will be given the chance.

Apart from Bissouma, Perisic is almost 34 years old, I don't think he will be an upgrade over Cucurella, and I googled his wage; rumour is that he is around 210,000 per week. Wage structure also matters.

The market is already inflated, and we are at that time where Defenders are more expensive than forwards. No one is ready to let go of their defender except we are going to South America to gamble on players from Flamingo.

This is not to absolve tuchel of any wrongdoings, he is obviously very bad at signing. I don't think he has been entrusted with signing players since he began his coaching career

He also confessed to hate participation in transfer activities. Not his calling. We should absolve him of any wrongdoing considering trying to do his best in what circumstances has thrown at him.

Let us wish him best in his choices and be optimistic of the players hitting the ground running.

The.players he is chasing for £50m are not quality, just expensive quantity. What's £50m about Ake and Dumbfries and how in any way are they more proven in quality than Perisic and Bissouma.

I hope you know Matteo Darmian was benching Dumbfries for a good portion of last season. Yes, the useless Man Utd flop Matteo Darmian!

Well, frankly speaking, i detest the choice of Dumfries and Ake. Going back for our former players is always a no for me.

In addition, Perisic and Bisouma transfer came too early; when we were still battling with Granovskia and administrative structure. So, i will implore you to take that away from your lips.

However, i strongly belief Cucurela is a quality player and addition for us.

Frenkie De Jong as well, he is a complete midfielder. Someone capable of bringing smooth transition in our play and neutralise midfield pressure. He is an expert in your usual phrase 'press resistant'.

Gvardiol, i cannot say much, but to a certain extent, a suitable addition.

Check the price on all these players. When you spend big money on a car, you must know the complaints on the car. Did they ban Chelsea from signing £13m Malacia, free Perisic or £28m Bissouma? Would complaints arise if a player is bought for £15m? One G man wants to spend £1 billion on defence alone, for players that are not International regulars and you expect us not to complain?

Those players are your own picks and nothing to substantiate they will come better.

Yes, there will be complain from various quarters if we go low as recommended by you. We will chastise Tuchel for not matching other big spenders and want to compete favourably. The narrative will be, is it his money, why the reluctance to spend?

I am as well surprised you wish for us another season long agony by suggesting staying put with tested failures Kennedy, Emerson and the likes.

Why have you chosen quantity over quality? Why?

Nobody is protecting Jorginho. A lie becomes truth when told repeatedly..

I have never come across any player with no deficiency, why Jorginho has been continually criticised for his beats imagination.

He is not world class, to be fair to him, he is far above an average player. Decent to a satisfactory level.

Well, the situation is just like an elected officer, cry foul till tomorrow, he will complete his tenure. Irrespective of lamentation on Jorginho, he is sure starter and will seen out his contract.

Islam for Muslims / Yaomal Arafah! A Day Of Leveling And Comprehensive Togetherness Incomprehensible by amodu(m): 9:12am On Jul 08, 2022
Is there any mount as mountainous as 'Mount Arafah' with its SPECIALITY and SPIRITUALITY?

Have you seen a gathering as gigantic as the gathering of Yaomal Arafah with its PURITY and POPULARITY?

In the whole history of the world and creations, has it ever recorded a unification as unifying and as unique as day of Arafah, with the entirety of humans adorning singular attire and the whole voices chanting only one statement?

Labbaik, Allahumma labbaik, labbaika la shareeka laka labbaik, innal hamda wanne'matah laka wal mulk, la shareeka laka. (Here I am, O Allah! Here I am; Here I am, there is no partner unto You, Here I am; all praise and favours and sovereignty belongs to You, there is no partner unto You.)

Can you point to me a singular intention as well as attention focus of millions of people ever other than the day of Arafah?

I have never seen nor heard of a social function that gives no regard for socioeconomic status of men as the day of Arafah.

A day that is not class-conscious or status conscious.

A rare day that does not discriminate or distinct status confirming that the best among beings are the most pious ones.

A realistic day and a day of consequence as well as reflection that will associate the pigeons and the hens.

YAOMAL ARAFAH! A DAY OF COMPREHENSIVE TOGETHERNESS INCOMPREHENSIBLE.

OH ALLAH, HEARKEN TO OUR SUPPLICATIONS, GRANT OUR DESIRES, ACCEPT OUR WORSHIP AND GRANT US THE MERCY TO WITNESS MANY MORE DAYS OF ARAFAH.

OH ALLAH, COUNT US AMONG YOUR SERVANTS WHO WILL HEARKEN TO YOUR CALL AND WORSHIP YOU ON THIS MOUNT, JABAL AL-RAHMAH ���

Don't be foolish .the northern governors made sure that Tinubu win the primary because the know he will lose general election to northerner. Muslims Muslims ticket won't sell . Muslims Christian ticket won't sell also. Tinubu is doomed.

The south south/south east delegates allow north to win because that's the only option to take power away from APC . Tinubu can easily beat any southern PDP candidate before 9am election day. ATiku will appoint SE and SS to key positions unlike APC. So we have to chose the lesser evil (PDP) , instead of wicked evil (APC).

Chosing ATiku will force Tinubu to make mistakes in his VP selection.which is a win win for Peter Obi too . The whole south will turn against Tinubu once he chose Muslim vp. CAN will start screaming Islamization of Nigeria. Every church in North and South will start screaming Islamization of Nigeria. The battle will no longer be between Igbo and north. It will be the entire Christian in Nigeria supporting the only Christian candidate Peter Obi against Muslims Tinubu

�️�️�️
Recent concluded primary elections of the two leading political party in the country amplify how these two regions are shooting themselves in the leg.

This 2 regions have 8 out 14 PDP Governors, yet they couldn't wrestle the party’s Presidential ticket for the South with their advantage majority.

However, Southwest with just 5 out of 22 Progressives Governors got the APC Presidential ticket for her region with vehement support of their Northern counterpart. Beware, that support did not come freely, it was a payback of same support given to the North in 2015 & 2019.

Instead of creating alliance, they're creating enmity and rather than strengthening political structures from the grassroot, theirs is strengthening social media presence.

Embedded lessons for South East and South South is 'be steadfast with your belief and belongingness, and build bridges as well as alliance with other ethic groups'.

Both South East and South South needs to stop longing to reap from where they did not sow and cease to lament if they're not ready to make sacrifices.

Politics / Re: 2023: Pictures From Atiku's Declaration In Abuja by amodu(m): 12:12pm On Mar 24, 2022
FreeStuffsNG:
Congratulations to HE Atiku.
This event is nice, colourfful but with average attendance that seemed bored listening to what some described as the familar but muffled rhethorics by HE Atiku every 4 years .

God willing, please watch out for the official declaration by Asiwaju Tinubu.

That day Asiwaju Tinubu will officially declare to contest for the Presidency of our fatherland will be the mother of all declarations because it will not be boycotted by sitting governors like the 13 PDP governors did by ignoring and boycotting HE Atiku's declaration today.

The day that Asiwaju Tinubu will officially declare shall be a day that will be divinely ordained, there shall be no Jew or Gentile or slave but freeborns of this land, the declaration will be delivered with the focused human face Asiwaju Tinubu's signature of both humility and gratitute to God for the Gift of life and talents and to you for the opportunity to serve this great nation with your support and vote.

The message will rekindle hope and patriotism, will be epic, poignant, surreal, loud, the message will be clear and, like the balm of Gilead will soothe a throbbing heart and like a gospel, the Good news will be recieved by a yearning mass movement in attendance and the reverberation taken to all the nooks and crannies of this great nation.

Our Green and White national colours will once again come alive and truly glow invoking our national pride. Every word will be a contract to serve you and Nigeria with all his heart, intellect, mind, soul and his God-given all.

Asiwaju Tinubu is the brilliant visionary leader the job needs. Please support Asiwaju Tinubu.
Thank you.

May God bless you and may God bless Nigeria for ever.

On the mandate of Asiwaju Tinubu I stand.
Here's free book on business ideas & money sources directory for you,it's 100% free! https://www.nairaland.com/6666800/looking-business-ideas-money-fund. Cheers.

His aspiration and lifelong ambition has been made visible to the blind and audible to those with hearing impairment.

A while ago, I saw a memo by Redeemed Christian Church of God creating an 'office of directorate of politics and governance' to help coordinate the engagement of members who are willing to involve in politics and mobilise support for them when required.

The memo charged all provincial pastors to effect this and appoint a provincial officer.

Indeed!! Bro.
It's why I'm always pissed at the fools who keep over hyping our useless attackers. People who won't let somebody hear word whenever they score 1 goal after 7 matches or 1 assist in 10 games.
Imagine that, Pulisic highest goals in a season in his career is 12. That was under lampard. Ziyech has only 7 premier league goals in 50 appearances.
Odoi's highest goals in the premier league is 4.
Let's not even talk about mount and havertz with their paltry numbers. Save mounts hattrick against bottom Norwich and 5 assists from setpiece, you'll see his unproductive during games.

We have been cursed with wasteful attackers. It's not even like we are not creative. We create lots of chances but have these impotent players waste them all.

Having this crop of attackers with their stats is disgusting and prominently ugly.

James, Chilwell, Kante, Thiago, Rudiger and Co pose attacking threats than our so called attackers and as such we do miss the unavailability of our defenders more than their attacking counterparts to show how bad it is.

You know, it isn't a crime to have favourite player, however, what is not befitting is to keep praise singing such players with their unproductivity.

Well I salute your endurance in engaging them.
