Ibime:
That's the only reason Jogginghoe still has a place in the team. The minute we buy a specialist, that belle-face joggers days are over.

Both Kante and Kovacic do their CM role twice as good as Jogginghoe does his DM role.

The minute Kante and Kova are out the team, we can see how much of the upward pressure and work they are carrying for the jogger.

When Jorginho become aged...

nihilistjnr:
Does he though?

That's really the question.

In the absence of Kovacic and Kante, we can really examine Jorginho quota to team play without the influence of of best two midfielders bailing him out.

We saw him against Manyoo. Tuchel had to make one funny excuse that the Floodlights confused Jorginho. We saw him against Watford - Tuchel came out and said we stole 3 points.

We saw Jorginho again against Westham. Tuchel actually came out and said Jorginho should not have put Mendy under pressure with that stüpid pass. Now again, we see him again against Leeds where we needed Rudiger cüntish antics to win 2 PKs, one in the 94th minute for God's sake. Again Tuchel felt the need to single out Jorginho for excuses, telling us the man is playing through injury because he knows Kova and Kante are out

I can accept that Jorginho is the best of an at-all at-all situation, but when the manager literally has to placate fans for Jorginho in particular for consecutive league games, I won't accept a revisionist agenda that Jorginho is integral to this team, or that he brings other qualities that Kante or Kova don't...

It's simply not true.

Balance the equation, measure the contribution of either Kante or Kovacic in the absence of Jorginho.

We have seen the shame of Kante and Kovacic pairings in few games, the less said, the better. Why not wait for either of the two to be paired with immature RLC and good for nothing Saul before concluding.

That said, football is a team sport, why measure Jorginho's ability individually and not collectively as a team? Do not because you want to underestimate him rubbish the scope of team game.

He has worked with many coaches and none has felt the need to replace him, apparently, he is in a class of his own judging by the reality on ground.

I just hope you will not be shocked if Tuchel do the same.

donjazet:
Thank much. Exactly my point.
People who hate jorginho do exactly that, HATE.

As it stands, no one can replace Jorginho in our team; not even Kante or Kovacic because they are wired differently.

Our attention should even be on our attackers' ineffectiveness. Our defenders are the ones raking up the stats and any off day for them, we struggle.

Ordinary Watford, their 3 attackers owns 90% of their goals not to talk of Liverpool and Manchester City.

donjazet:
Both of us know this isn't true. Anybody can score pk, but how many can do it well on a consistent basis. There are few, because of the mentality involved. Did we not lose a super cup, fa cup and community shield because our strikers lost their pks. From morata against arsenal, to Tammy against Liverpool plus mount missing a handful.

Again, I'm not rating one above the other. I'm strongly against doing that. I love them both equally. They both bring something unique to our team. We shouldn't raise one above the other. Kante and jorginho are very essential to us winning this league and our 3rd champions league.

The point you're trying to make is very clear and there is no iota of favouritism for Jorginho to down play Kante's uniqueness to our team in all of your submissions.

However, those countering you are doing so to downplay Jorginho's effort, as if he doesn't contribute a meaningful quota to our team play.

There is no being without a flaw, Jorginho's flaw shouldn't be used as a measure to rubbish his contributions.

But wait ooo

What did Ranieri gave this Watford players to drink?

The strength, press, relentlessness and compactness was from where? All of those were absent some weeks back.

Now I know the meaning of his message towards the end of first half, stand firm.

Watford's outing today is unexpected and worthy of applause.

nateevs:
You have to calm down mate. I am a big Mount fan but this is nonsense really.

Total nonsense I must say.

Many are afraid of the match situation; the threat pose by Watford, increasing injury to our players, losing of points, succumbing the number position on the log and many others, he is there praise singing a player who has been epileptic in his performances.

Tuchel is handicapped with many injuries and still thriving, obvious to all he deserves commendation, he chose to rain curse on him.

Ibime!!! Do you see this? You know nothing about jorginho's role in our team. The boy keeps shaming you.
The Hallmark of a man is knowing when to accept defeat, to fight another day.
You consistently denigrate our vice captain who has played an instrumental role in keeping us where we are.

So you know more than tuchel who is always starting him? Na wa for you.

Only God can deliver Ibime from Jorginho's obsession.

The earlier you leave him to it the better as he is known to be adamant; tí igbin e ba ti tẹnu mo igi bayi, o má gùn sha ni

hensben:
Chilwell will be back against Man U or the next game.

You cannot be sure.

His is even serious than Kante judging from what we saw.

I am perturbed at how our players are picking up injuries in the UCL.

Lukaku and Werner against Malmo.

Now, Kante and Chilwel against Juventus.

It is disturbing.

Hoping same thing happen next weekend as Liverpool play Westham United and Manchester City play Manchester United both away from home.

When is the Carabao Cup draw taking place?

If you have N’Golo, you have something that everybody is looking for. You have everything that you need in midfield - work-rate, intensity, ball wins, skikful play, off the ball and with the ball, and even a goal today!

drisham:
Why don't these guys pass to lukaku??

Tuchel should better address this issue before it gets out of hand

I agree with you totally.

None of our attacking has recorded an assist for him yet.

Also, I wonder why Lukaku did not released the passed for that last chance for like three players in better position than him?

This kind of wrong decisions and selfishness will cost us if not addressed.

Reece James assisted Lukaku's first goal against Arsenal, James scored in that same match.

Mateo Kovacic assisted Lukaku's second goal against Aston Villa, Kovacic scored in that match.

The rush to assist Romelu Lukaku is on. Assist him and you're assured of a goal.

The Big Rom!

Deal collapse kwa?

Referring to Saul deal?

Saul Niguez deal might be hampered according to skysports.

ATM is yet to upload the signed papers.

We can beat our chest now in the committee of elite clubs.

Today, we are not only champions but possessor of best players in their positions and individual honour winners.

All thanks to Tuchel for bettering the lot of these players and giving us something to be proud of.

Thank you Tuchel for your good work, help in changing the narrative and raising the bar.

Havertz10:
I don't like this draw, that pot 2 na wa, well I hope we get psg, it will be interesting cause tuchel will be super motivated and that will boost our brand clout, if we beat them

What are you actually wishing for?

Without PSG, our morale is high and deem a good brand as reigning champion.

Our cocunut contains water.

Ibime:
Who want lie to themselves should keep lying to themselves that Jorginho improved.

If you ask what aspect of his game improved, they will start stuttering.

Nothing improved in his game, they just found a deep lying system where he doesn't have to chase opposition. We can only get so far doing that. Nigga is just lucky to be part of Kante and Donnarumas world in the same season they carried their teams to trophies.

I stand my ground that Jorginho is the same player. Same way Sarri parked bus to draw 0-0 with Man City in Carabao Cup final, the week after getting hammered 6-0 by the same Man City when he tried to play an attacking set-up with the same Jorginho.

Jorginho hasn't improved one iota. Infact his passing game disappeared in order for us to park the bus to protect him.

The season is long and demands consistency, not bus parking, and those weaknesses will be called out as we go along. We die here.

Then ask yourself, why are they adopting a system to accommodate him?

The money is there, why didn't they replace him with a better DM?

Lukaku was signed without accommodating the duo of Giroud and Abraham.

Mendy was signed without continuing with the ineptitude of Kepa.

So you need to ask yourself why are coaches not using that lifeline and make him rot on the bench.

OJURONGBE1:
Westham are foot dragging on his wages (£125k)
They are getting an EPL & Champions league winner for just £25m yet they do not want to pay him. Is he not better than the Sebastian Haller & Felipe Andersen they paid £40m & £35m?

Perhaps because they're aware of his surplus to requirement predicament.

He should please not slowdown the process, transfer window will be closing soon and there are many other businesses to be done.

What is wrong with Kurt Zouma?

Why is he stylishly blocking his transfer?

OJURONGBE1:
I sincerely hope he break the jinx on that shirt.
Tammy tried his best. Only Hasselbaink & Vialli proved their mettles donning that shirt.
He should have taken No 18. Double 9

Torres, Morata, Chris sutton , Kezman, Crespo , Falcao, Higuain ( didn't play many games) ,
Di Santo ( not given much chance) Bouhlarouz
( defender) flopped massively in that shirt.

I was surprised when it breaks that he opted for that shirt number.

Hoping Tammy Abraham has drained the jinx with his not bad showings in that shirt.

And perhaps, Lukaku himself might have returned with a voodoo to cleanse it

He has taken the number 9 shirt

No Lukaku medical again today?
