I don't think anyone is celebrating "we played well". You should put things in perspective.
Yes the problems of creating chances, no win in 10 matches still dey there but this is the "best" we've played in a long time, showing heart, desire, passion and knowing the likes of Chuks, Lewis Hall are not afraid to express themselves. If no be injury, Chuks for no play and he did admirably well against a tough opposition. That is what we are "celebrating". You geddit?

That shows how bad we are currently. Under Tuchel, we were competing for trophies not celebrating how we played well.

Oasis007:


Well.... e dey sweet us.

We will see where Potter will take us to at the end of the season.

Oasis007:



We played well FC.... LMFAO! Chelsea fans that never satisfy with a top 4 position without a trophy at end of season, now celebrating we play well?!

The thing suprise me ooo. Is that not mediocre?

airmark:
Which Otamendi will make the clearance? Will he chip the ball to be hanging in the sky for minutes?

You dey whine yourself?

I wonder oò.

airmark:
Well, Muani's gif is clear enough for who is not blind to comprehend my position. Tell me how the ball didn't bounce as you claimed earlier.

Look again. Look through the eyes of Forgiveness.

Na em be agbero na

Character assassins will use every means denigrate Tinubu.

Where in that video proves Tinubu pee on his body?

Tinubu 71 years this year while Obi will be 69 years this year but the gullible youths believe Tinubu is too old while mischievously or should I say conspicuously ignoring the obvious fact Obi is just 2 years younger than Tinubu.

andrewbaba44:
Same mbappe they said carried France to the 2018 World Cup ,as if griezman pogba kante na log of wood

But they were not at this wc save Griezmann.

The coach lacks ideas. Under Tuchel, there was no way Chelsea didn't create chances. Just that chances were wasted.

TLona1:
He was carried al through.

There's a reason why he was never the MVP in any world cup tournament.

Who was the mvp in 1970 wc? Don't start your new year with lies.

swiz123:
Are you trying to say that before Pele, players didn't dribble each other? Cos those things you called tricks are just simple footballing instincts. Are you trying to say Pele invented nutmeg?

I have studied his skills and they weren't more than what I did as a boy even without watching any match on Television or learning anywhere. I am talking shot feint, sharp change of direction, accelerating past oppositions.

For comparison, Maradona's Messi-like dribbling was way more effective than Pele's. The latter more often than not bagged into players after doing his poorly performed skill.

Football is more technical and tactical now. Teams study their opposition too well and learn about their strengths due to visual aids which allows for repeated exposure. But then, the exceptional players still manage to make them look silly.

Pele was great among his peers because he was a talented dude amongst 80% amateurs. Surely, such fluke career can't be compared to Lionel Messi whose dominance shown while playing against very rich clubs who parade very talented players with excellent footballing culture.

Who were the amateurs? The irony is Pele was still the greatest. He is currently FIFA player of the century.

No matter how you try to downplay it. He is greatest of all time.

Fowl yanch don bolow open.

Hmmm!

Ibime:
Homage to the GOAT that answers all Indomie questions

https://www.skysports.com/football/news/12027/12758851/pele-dies-at-82-busting-the-myths-surrounding-the-brazilian-great

Very interesting. The goat of goats.

Arizoner:
Ibime, forgiveness, the great pele is gone to rest among the immortals. The greatest player of all time. Not even messi comes close. Pele is from another world in the celestial universe. He's an alien from asgard who travelled to earth to teach humans how football is played. Thor would be proud. A classic number 10, he showed the world his range of talents the world will never see.

His legacy on earth still remains undisputed. May his soul find rest.

Kwankwaso ti lu le.

God hve mercy.

Pulisic was arguably Chelsea's best player in 2019/2020 season despite injury.

Nevertheless, we can't criticize our players for now due to what we have gone through in the last 3 seasons.

BlueMann:
Chelsea want to sign Felix on loan in January

That boy is a potential world class player.

We already know it was fraud.

Very good.

tsephanyah:
Atiku kawai

E go shock you. Walahi!

tsephanyah:
Igbo Christians will vote obi
Yoruba will vote tinubu
Atiku will be voted by everyone

Obi will lose massively
Tinubu will be shocked in many places.

Landslide Victory for Atiku

I swear Atiku will win

All this loudmouth delusional obi supporters can yarn dust from now till kingdom comes

Dey dere dey deceive yourself. Atiku no go win shingbin NC, SS, SE and SW. NE and NW are only sure for him but expect him to have 50% vote shared in NE.

Except Buhari wants to rig the election for his kinsmen. Well, that could led to balkanization of Nigeria.

Oldboss:
did you watch Pele play?

Does that stops Pele from being goat of goats?

OriOko88:

Na wike i pity most in all of these. If Atiku wins this election which is highly possible..cos he would see more than 40% in all the 36 states. He will even drag south west with Tinubu... Then myopic Wike should kiss his political career goodbye.. He's gone for good.

"You don't fight battle recklessly,but tactically'. Bonaparte Napoleon

Atiku see 40% in the sw!?

FirstbornWds:
I don't know how anyone else can think that anybody else stands a chance to win the Ballon d'Or ahead of Messi


If Mbappe and Haaland likes, let them score 1m goals from now till the next Ballon d'Or... They will only smell 2nd and 3rd.

So, If Mbappe that was obviously the best player of 2022 wc cup scores the most goals in Ligue 1, Champions league and wins it, they will still give it to Messi, abi?

Thanks for the information in advance

No wonder Messi never won the golden foot decided by an online poll, where anyone can vote. Dude is a fraud.

BlaqFaze:
He played proper league football, has 7 balon dors and didn't win WC when they was no group matches

Do you want to cure yourself of perpetual ignorance?

See the cure below.

BlaqFaze:
He played proper league football, has 7 balon dors and didn't win WC when they was no group matches

So, Pele didn't play proper league, abi?

Where did he play that in 1968?

What is the difference between the Brazilian league of today and in Pele's days?

popizaino:
That means everyone that won 2world cups around that time is better than messi right?


Iniesta is greater than Zidane.

Did Iniesta reach 2 wc finals like Zidan?

Hear what yout Iniesta said when he was asked. "I don't agree".

raumdeuter:
Cry more for forgiveness

My sins have already been forgiven. No need for that.

raumdeuter:
They won 1962 without Pele. The quality in that Brazilian squad would have won any of 1958 and 1970 with or without Pele

Try imagine this Argentina team without Messi same with the Argentina of 1986 without Maradona

Meaning they didn't win without Pele.

Messi didn't do anything meaningful in this world cup apart from tapping in 5 penalties.

They could have won it without him too.

raumdeuter:
I don talk my own since na

I argued that Maradona was better than Pele for many years

Now Messi has surpassed Maradona.

So why will I go back and say Pele is better than Messi?

Look at the quality of teammates that Messi took to the world cup title and their pedigree in football.

Minus Messi those group might not even make it out of groupstage

While Pele was part of an all star team all his national career that they won the cup without him

Apart from 1962, which wc did they win without Pele?

Ballzproblem2:
tuchel filled ya team with Sterling, fofana, koulibaly and overpaid cucurella, telling the owners we don't need Midfielders how you no go struggling? ,keep saying we need world class players,but he couldn't bring up multiple targets, Potter came in bought fofana for £12m ,now that's a coach with vision ,he knows what he wants ,he knows the kind of players that fit his system,apart from champions league tuchel was a disaster,from his formation to his signings

Are you a Barca fan? I think you should stick with that team.
