It is reported that Al-Shaʿbī – Allāh have mercy on him – said:

Stay away from the sinful amongst the scholars and the ignorant amongst the worshippers, for these two are the calamity of everyone who would fall into fitnah.

Atletico Madrid and Diego Costa have terminated their contract, will you like to have him back at Stamford Bridge? Ibime, Airmark izzou, Unlimited22, Nihilistjnr, hensben, bikeman and Skimpledawg?

If you understand the difference between NEED and WANT, you'd understand why I said Werner and Havertz were not a necessity. They are can be important to us, but they are not necessarily needed. Positions we desperately needed personnels were: GK, CB, LB, LWF and CF...

AM and RWF in which those two now occupy wasn't a neccesity.

They are needed because of their outputs and the options they provided.

I think Lampard should play Werner in his preferred position as a striker in some games and use Kai also in his preferred position even though that may affect Mount's game time.

Abraham — though a good player — isn't reliable in crucial games.

Mount is undroppable the work he does is too important though it may not be too pleasing on the eyes but it leaves others the license to operate.
Werner's and Tammy can and should play together because they complement each other well what we to work on is our passing between the lines and quick switch of play. How many through balls did our attackers receive in recent games? Absolute mediocre numbers. Also, Reece James and Chillwell should stop bombing forward at the same time because this will create numerical superiority for our opponents since our midfielders of late have been finding it difficult to track runners and losing possession in dangerous areas.

swiz123:
When folks here were saying Werner is a winger, I just laugh at them. Werner played as a supporting striker, not as a pure winger. His strength is being diminished at that wing position.

With that said, Chelsea doesn't need his type of player for now. At the moment, he is a luxury than a necessity. The same with his brother Kai.

The neccesities needed were: a goalie, a CB, a LB, and a replacement for Willian

We needed them for tactical variations, it is left for Lampard to find the best mix that will work without team losing balance. We the squad at our disposal we should be rotating heavily and changing formations to suit our players and confuse our opponents, I see no reason why we are not using 3-4-3, 3-5-2, 4-2-3-1 and 4-4-2 often especially when we are chasing games. The like for like substitution is something I don't think is working for us so far

Leyqute:
TBH Timo Werner is just an expensive Dan James without footballing brain.

Oga this is a lie.

Ibime, Nihilistjnr, Airmark, Unlimited22, Skimpledawg, Donjazet view this thread analysing Werner's current position and how it affects his contributions.

A Comparison of this season & last season:

Points Gained after 15 games last season: 29
Points Gained after 15 games this season: 25

This has been Chelsea's 2nd worst start of a PL campaign in the Roman Abramovich era. Only in 2015-16, Chelsea had fewer points after 15 games

The loss was on Lampard and the players, our midfield was non-existent for large spell of the game yet he couldn't readjust his tactics to cope with Arsenal's overload and intensive pressing. Kovacic and Kante were poor the only player in the first half midfielders who tried was Mount. When we tried to bypass the press and launch it forward Abraham will foul an opponent instead of knocking it down. Werner was poor he wasn't even making the runs he was known for.
The bright spark was Hudson-Odoi the boy deserves a consistent run in the team for now till when Ziyech returns to full fitness.
The less said about Jorginho PK technique the better

Al-Imām Ahmad ibn Hambal [may Allāh have mercy on him] said:

“May Allāh bestow mercy upon a servant who:

‘Speaks the truth, follows the Athār [narrations]; adheres to the example and guidance of the Messenger of Allāh صَلَّى اللّٰهُ عَلَيْهِ وَسَلَّمَ and emulates the righteous [Pious
Predecessors and Successors].’”

I hope BlueAngel444 is OK. I haven't seen her around for a while.

This reminds me of how she was pointing us toward high praise of Pirlos UEFA Licence thesis where they were saying it's the best dissertation ever written in UEFA Pro licence history

Honestly his thesis is rich in content and you shouldn't fault BlueAngel for saying what she said but as you've previously written on this thread coaching in football requires more of man management than having beautiful ideas. Players won't play for you if you don't respect them and massage their egos, they will rubbish your brilliant ideas and make you look clueless.

Inter and AC Milan now holding sizeable advantages over Juve.

Still early but this is looking like the season the Old Lady will finally be dethroned.

I'm all for it.

Abul ‘Āliyyah [may Allāh have mercy on him] said:

“A time will come upon the people wherein there hearts will be devoid and derelict of the Qur’ān. They will find neither sweetness nor acquire any delight by its recitation. If they fall short of performing what they have been commanded to do, they will say: ‘Certainly, Allāh is All-Forgiving, Most Merciful.’ If they commit that which they have been forbidden from doing, they will say: ‘We shall be forgiven, we have not associated any partners unto Allāh.’ Their affairs will be based on covetousness [and false hope], possessing no truth [and no sincerity]. They will wear the skins of lambs over hearts of wolves. The best of them in his religion will be someone who compromises.”

He is in premier league now. Let him repeat the feat he attained at Bayern's liga

Don't shift the discussion from the bone of contention which is, Havertz have eyes for goals and assists vs Mount. Something I countered with the former's G/A contributions last season, you should bring Mount's G/A stats from last season. Whether he will replace his output in PL is a different story

Ibeme:
Is this an acceptable record for a striker?

Cos as far as I'm concerned, an AM in a 4-2-3-1 who just strolls and does no pressing, and allowed total freedom to do whatever is a striker in midfielders clothing.

He is not a striker and he does get involved in the pressing aspect of play, just because one is not running like Usain Bolt on the field doesn't mean he's not pressing.

Emaprince:
Eyes for goals and assist you say?

Mount is actually the one with eyes for goals.

Havertz is just a boring, lazy boy that plays football as if there is nothing at stake. He irritates me

"In his last season at Leverkusen, Havertz managed 16 goals and eight assists in all competitions". What was Mount's goals and assists contributions for Chelsea last year?
