You're right. For some reasons, I thought we're on 11 points already. Anyway, if Zambia fails to win tomorrow then we'd just need to win or draw against Zambia to qualify. I like our chances


O pari

wealthywiseman:
Not so. If they are lucky to beat Algeria, they would be on 7 points while we remain on 10. A draw against Zambia at home would suffice. The head to head rule will decide regardless of the outcomes of our last matches and scoreline.

chimatruth:
WHAT IF ZAMBIA BEAT ALGERIA TOMORROW? WHAT IS OUR FATE

cassyrooy:
Should Zambia win tomorrow, they'll be on 7pts. If we draw them we will be on 11pts while they on 8pts.


If we lose our last game and they win with high goal margin, we're out.


Therefore, #OperationFinishZambia

BluntBoy:
A win for Algeria tommorow and we would need just one point from our remaining 2 matches.

hoopLA:
Lol bro you've already planned out the scenario.
I don't see Zambia getting a win in Algeria though.
It's very difficult to see that happening as bad as Algeria has been lately.
I just hope we don't lose tomorrow(or is it Tuesday?) because that could throw the group wide open.

Plus I read somewhere that key members are a card away from suspension. If that is true then we need to be a bit worried given what happened vs South Africa.

eph12:
so you don't know that godstraight is the same person as hensben?

hoopLA:
Agreed.
But with the euphoria of Friday's good win I think anything other than a win will be a disappointment to the largely unreasonable fan base of the Eagles.
You need to hear call in radio stations. All the fans are talking about how far we can go in Russia.
So it will be hard to digest a draw given that expectations are sky high at the moment.

For me I'm not carried away. The eagles are still deficient in a number of areas: goalkeeping, both full backs and probably the wings though it doesn't look like we go that route anymore (I.e wing play). The Cameroon side is piss poor and how they won the CAN is beyond me. But the eagles are a in a lot better shape than they've been in recent memory, the only surprise is how easy it's been thus far against sides that are ranked higher than we are.

I'm pretty sure Algeria makes Zambia drop points too. Zambia has a shocking record in North Africa but the Algerians have been mediocre too.

Either way we need to gets draw in Cameroon and beat Zambia here to be sure of qualification. The rest of the group appears to be cancelling each other out thus far.

Godstraight:
my god why can't you folks read?, how many competition did zlatan play for united?,how many points did his goals win?

Godstraight:
costa was the most valuable in epl last season he won 15 points nit scoring useless goals like oga old man,put costa in ligue 1 he will score 70 goals,zlatan played more games than oga last season so it is logical,even man united fanbase will not chose present zlatan over costa.
I never said morata was better what am telling you is lukaku is not better than morata,he doesn't play often but now my guy dey Chelsea,we will resolve who is better this season,local champion like lukaku,morata seft scored 27 goals last season for Madrid,he has come to a new country and he is already scoring,my guy has played and scored in the highest level not local champions like lukaku.baba calamity cahill is still better than all your defenders[except baily],which of your defenders reach him caliber,nor be smalling,jones,etc una get,inconsequal bunch

dopeJemi:
in the past two years

Ibrahimovic-50 goals at psg, 28 goals at man united

Give me Costa's numbers

Lukaku at age 23, 120+ goals
Morata at 23, 40+ goals

e show well well, Morata is better


Same calamity cahill y'all are glad is riding the bench? abi which Cahill?

abeg I dey go sleep

Godstraight:
baba the guy just dey new dey come na ,you just tire me,costa didn't score more than 22 goals in one season

ToyinDipo:
Has Morata ever scored brace before sef

BlueAngel444:
common positions they both share. CB, CM, wingers/attacking players and strikers (won't compare full backs and wing backs)

In cb Chelsea has Luiz, Cahill, Azpilicueta, Rudiger and Andreas

ManU's best CB is bailly right the others Chris, Or Jones, Rojo, Victor (5players)

Andreas is easily equal if not better than all 5


In CM manU have Pogba, Matic, Herrera, Fellani, Carrick (5 players, quantity)

Chelsea Kante (POTY) Fabregas (only Pogba can match his passes and attacking threat) Bakayoko (easily better than Fellani and carrick, in defence and attack) Drinkwater (isn't a DM but has better defensive stats than Matic, great passer)

Wingers/attacking players

ManU have martial, mata, lingard, micki (he is ur best in this field)

Chelsea have Pedro, willian, Hazard and musonda

Let me be fair and compare the least attackers in both teams, that's lingard and musonda (even you know lingard isn't worth his salary, you begin to wonder why him and not januza) lingard isn't more talented than musonda he just has more EPL experience (of course he is older)

Ur best attacking player isn't better than willian

Now strikers

Lukaku is better than Morata

But

Batshuayi is better than Rashford


And maybe


Costa is better than Ibrahimovic
(2017 era)

patrickmuf:
So Conte out spent Mou but some weeks back, some Shekpites claimed Conte doesn't have the financial resources available to Mou and Pep...Canopy analyst everywhere...

sinizia:
Today is the day I gave up on Hensben. No offence to him, but I've never seen anyone with a poor understanding of footie than him.

dopeJemi:
except last season you were Champions, bookies don't win the league

EOD

Godstraight:
and so?,so we must sell fabregas,hazard first before generating income

dopeJemi:
ask them to name the players that they sold, then will start calling Oscar, person wey no join team wey win league, Terry wey sit down for bench tire, matic wey dey say slow like snail and termed a reject, chalobah wey no see shirt for first team, Ake wey I fit count the number of matches he play for Chelsea with only one hand

dopeJemi:
this is not about buying or selling or how much spent

was Oscar part of the team that won the league last season? is it the matic that y'all said was slow and couldn't play to save his life? or is it Terry that sat on the bench more times than he saw playing time?

like I said, this is not about buying or selling


Morata
bakayoko
Rudiger
drinkwater
zappacosta

these are the new additions to a title winning team, so why shouldn't Chelsea win the league?

SetrakusRa:
Matic had direct impact? Same Matic that almost all Chelsea fans would cream their pànts if he was missing in their starting XI and prefered FabrePass.. Remember, he's a chelsea reject.

Kante was the engine room of that midfield.. They've replace their weak-links (Matic, Ivanovic, Costa) with "upgrades" (Bakayoko, Zappacosta, Morata).

They must win the league and more!

diggz:
You are trolling bro

hensben:
So you are replacing players that are still in your team but Chelsea don't have the right to replace players that left. Just listen to yourself.

Godstraight:
and we sold 100million,it seems you love forgetting that part

diggz:
What is your definition of massive upgrade?

SetrakusRa:
The point is.. Chelsea UPGRADED their team, ManUtd FIXED theirs..

The champions that upgraded their team are favourites, than 6th team that fixed their shortcomings of last season.. Chelsea must win the league and FA Cup this season, with atleast a QFinal finish in UCL.

BTW, i think netspend is irrelevant in the current transfer market.

BlueAngel444:
conte v mou expenses in pounds: 2016 chelsea spent: 120m sold: 96m 2017 chelsea spent: 188m sold: 100m 2016 manu spent: 150m sold: 44m 2017 manu spent: 145m sold: frankly below 10m. neglecting income chelsea has spent more in purchases by 13m on transfers, manu generates more income than chelsea (per shirt sales as thats the value of a player to a team) but manu's other expenses like salaries, agent fees are double what chelsea spend like in the case of lukaku, rooney, pogba. chelsea make a ton from loans this year alone 33 players are out on loan (70m probably generated)

Chelseafan1:
Who lifted Chelsea from 10th to 1st? I want to know how World class the person(s) is/are.

SetrakusRa:
ManUtd transers = £140m+
Chelsea transfers = £180m+

na una win this transfer window, una must win the league!

Chelseafan1:
Rojo and 36yo Ibra didn't get sold.

Matic, Terry have been sold.

Costa has not been with us, he myt not even play for us.

Chelseafan1:
What is Fellaini's natural position.?
