Torres scored 9 in 22 before he moved to Chelsea in Jan. He had sustained that injury and further aggravated it at the WC. He was never the same when he came(barring the brace he scored against Chelsea). Ask any Liverpool fan they'll tell you the same thing.
Why wouldn't he cope under Sarri? Are you aware Mertens turned into a goal machine under him?
He'd cope under Conte as a back up to Costa.
Falcao was washed for two seasons straight. He was no where close to his peak at Chelsea
How come he scored double digit goals in Spain after he left Chelsea if he was washed up?

Is Mertens better than Hazard? Why didn't he turn him to goal machine?

We saw what happened after Costa left. Gabriel will struggle.


Hahahaha! Now it was for two seasons. grin okay

I disagree. He can get back to his size by reducing the weights and the Carbs.

Ejide did not look this big before.
Please show me his pictures when he was younger.

Morata mostly played as an SS at Juve when he was with Conte. Didn't really convince as a CF at Madrid (he scored 20 goals yes but still)

Falcao was washed. He had just come back from that injury and was well short of confidence after his spell at Manure. Only God knows how he regained a bit of form at Monaco

Higuain is washed. Dude was flopping at Milan before Sarri foolishly asked for him. Milan were more than happy to let him go and easily replaced him with Piatek.

Torres?? Lol seriously?? Everyone knows Torres was finished before he signed for you guys. Liverpool played a sharp one on you.
Jesus would do well in Conte and Sarri's sides (maybe even Ancelotti). Not with Mou for obvious reasons.
Morata was bought after his exploits as a Striker at Real Madrid.

Falcao returned from long injury but that doesn't tantamount to washed up. You can say he was out of form.

If Torres went to AM straight from Liverpool, he would had competed for the la Liga's top goal scorer. Someone who still scored double digit goals in Spain after he left Chelsea.

Torres scored 22 goals in all competitions the previous season before he was bought. How can we call that washed up?

Under Conte? grin Gabriel will look average under him because he can never bench Costa or play like him. grin

Sarri? Hehehehehehe! I don't think so.

Minus Lukaku(young) and Morata(more of a SS THEN), The other guys you mentioned were already washed up due to injuries or something else.
Anyway it depends on the season sha. If we're talking when Cesc was in super form with Hazard - then G Jesus would do ok.
Jesus off the ball movement is miles better than that of Tammy imo
No! Morata was Chelsea main target man then. Falcao washed up? grin

He went to Ligue 1 afterwards and helped Monaco to win the league and reached the Semi finals of UEFA Champions League. grin

Is Huguian washed up? grin

Torres still went to La Liga and shined. He was not washed up. grin

Jesus will struggle at Chelsea. He is not better than all those players that struggled.

If he looks like this and claims to be playing professional football in any league, am sorry I can't take that league serious. When it isn't for a novelty match. We know what he looked like before and that's not muscle, it's fat eod.
His reflex matters.

That's the same league Enyeama played before he went to France.

Just because of you and komekn ways of thinking

Abraham will be glued on the bench if he doesn't score in the next match.

Why will higuain not struggle when you where not playing good football, nobody to even lay a better pass, higuain didnt even settle self, he even still scored 5 goals in 14 games

Lukaku didnt have game time, so do falcao because he only played 10 games, so you want them to score in the whole of the 10 games with few minutes abi? falcao that was almost injured all his time at chelsea, you for kukuma add pato nah, morata did his best, he is average

The only player that flopped in Chelsea that you mentioned was Torres, please remove the rest from your list, none of those player even played 15 games apart from torres

No talk say weda jesus better pass them or not, if we are to compare we cant do it such way

Deigo costa is not a better striker than higuain but according to you higuain flopped which i dont even agree with you , oya why didn't costa flopped?
Chelsea didn't play good football last season!? grin

I didn't say flop. I said struggled. Gabriel Jesus can't fit into Chelsea's style of play.

The strikers that succeeded in Chelsea are strong and bully types. Costa didn't struggle in Chelsea. Na dat Conte make us loose him.

Bro you self know nah

Jesus and tammy no be the same level

Jesus will do better at chelsea, trust me

If gabriel jesus dey your team your striking problem don solve for the next 6 years

The best man for that job now is batshuayi , but i doubt lampard want to even use him
Is Jesus better than Torres, Moratta, Lukaku, Falcoa and Higuian that all struggled at Chelsea?

I don't think so. Gabriel is no target man. He can't play in Chelsea.


Batshuayi is part of the team. He will definitely play.

Veteran Nigerian goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama fails to get Dijon deal after trials at French club


08/05/2019 | PULSE NIGERIA | STEVE DEDE
Tell your friends

Enyeama still believes he can compete at the biggest level after impressing on trial at the club.


Vincent Enyeama and Dijon could not agree on a contract after he trained at the club (bienpublic)
Veteran Nigerian goalkeeper Vincent Enyeama has failed to get Dijon deal after he had trials with the French club.

Enyeama who has not played competitive football since April 2017 trained with Gijon who wanted to watch him closely ahead of a deal.


According to BBC Sport, a deal could not be reached due to disagreement over the structure of the deal.

Vincent Enyeama says he was well received at the club during the trial (bienpublic) bienpublic

Despite failing to get a deal with Dijon, the 36-year-old took to his Twitter to thank the club for their ‘reception’.



"I want to thank the people of DFCO @dfco_officiel for the warm and excellent reception and the opportunity they gave me to train with their first team," Enyeama wrote on Instagram.

"I have only good words and memories of you guys. I wish you all the best for the season. Go and show the championship what a great family you are. Good luck."

BBC Sport also report that the former Super Eagles captain and goalkeeper impressed during his trials at the club.


"It was a wonderful period that made me realise that I can still play football at the highest level," he also said on Instagram.

"That I can still win matches and trainings for my side. The [Dijon] players, coaches and medical staff were very wonderful."

Vincent Enyeama is still optimistic that he can compete at the big stage (bienpublic) bienpublic

Enyeama, Pulse Sports understand prefers to remain in France where he and his family are settled.

Enyeama moved to France to join Lille from Israeli side Hapoel Tel Aviv in June 2011 and made 164 appearances for the French club.

The 2013/2014 season was his best season at the club after he got 17 clean sheets from 35 league games to become the French Ligue 1 African Player of the Season.

No they won't sir.

They are still playing at the highest level of club football, unlike our own old men.

Enyeama retired from the national team, if not, we won't even know about Uzoho by now, and he would still be manning the goal post for us. so what's your point. Let Enyeama come back from retirement, and see if he won't get a call up.
They will not play at the highest level of club football if they are Nigerians. The problem is our mentality against anything old.

Why are u trying so hard to absolve Rohr of the blame for Alampasu's exclusion from the team? There's no where that the goalkeeper trainer has power over the head coach in selecting goalkeepers for the team...his job is to train them..the coach makes the final decision...
I want Alampasu called up too but stop accusing Alloy Agu of whatever you are accusing him of. his problem is just that he is lazy!

I am in no way comparing their abilities to those great men. Their age is what is being talked about. We shouldn't disqualify them based on age alone. Keepers have more longevity than outfield players. What should disqualify them should be their abilities when benchmarked against the current younger keepers we have.
Exactly!

Stop comparing Aiyenugba and Èjìdé with those world class goalies. They were never at one point in their careers half as good as those world class guys
If those goalkeepers were Nigerians, they would have become history by now because of their age.

if Enyeama gets game time, do you want him in the team?

Is dele Aiyenugba also in the Israeli league? If both Ejide and Aiyenugba are still playing active football with the keeper crisis we have I don't see why we can't give them invites and if they are past it, drop them finish. Edwin Van Der Saar came out of retirement and was still top class. Peter Shilton retired in his 40s, David seaman was around for a long time, we all still see Buffon so we shouldn't discriminate on those two based on their age. If they still have ir, could even be a good opportunity for the upcoming to learn from them in person.
Aiyegbeni is clubless.

However, you are right on point. We should not discriminate based on age. The SIU measurement for selection should be based on performance in club. That was what that goalkeeper coach used against Alampasu to drop him from the team.

What stops the double standard fellow from dropping Ezenwa, Akpeyi and Uzoho the bench warmers?

Austin Ejide stats is better than all the goalkeepers we have.

He played throughout last season. Why did our goalkeeper coach ignore him for Akpeyi and Ezenwa despite playing in a better league?

With Ejide we could have won the AFCON.

Lol where did u read "score" in the post u quoted? The post asked how many shots on goal and on target. But that said, what's his primary assignment as a striker, if not to score goals? How many minutes did it take Mount a midfielder to score today? In three matches so far for Chelsea, how many shots on target has Abraham Registered again?
