Chelsea have enough quality players to make CL semis at least. Monaco made it last yr they are not better than Chelsea

There are some frauds in the team like Luiz, like Hidden Hazard especially
can you tell us the players in the first eleven in every of those seasons that were quality enough to reach the semis. Make sure they are not the same players you have called fraud at one time or the other. You can also go ahead to tell us where they are now and how they are doing.

I hope you are not going to shameless name a 38 years old lampard and a tired ashley cole.

I don't know if you deliberately missed were I mentioned in my first post that he is presently our most celebrated player in cfc.

Instead of searching history books.....do you mind to tell me why we always have to make excuses and defend our star player almost every season? Why his talent is still in question after several years of playing professional football?

Would you say he has delivered based on the hype around him, his fat weekly salary and bonuses and status in the club?
you are getting worked up for no reason. I told you that I was not arguing with you. I just asked you a simple question from the post you made.

From your post you said hazard is the most celebrated player at chelsea and you still told us that he has done nothing for us except his dribbles. Now, i asked a simple question, are the chelsea fans celebrating him over these years just because of dribbles?

Now let me added this ones.
Where did he get the hype that you are talking about, is it at chelsea or his former club? The hype he has now, did he get it before coming to chelsea or in Chelsea? When he came to first came to chelsea, did he immediately start receiving fat salaries and bonuses or did get increased for him because of his dribbles?

What is there or left to defend in 2018 hazard? All these many excuses to exonerate a player who have chosen to settle at his age? A player who lacks the mental stamina or character to constantly elevate is game without us having to defend him, year in...year out....

For me....Hazard with all is talent have proven to be a huge disappointment to the world of football in general. If he should continue with his rubbish game......the summary of his career and talent may end up being hidden for good, when names are being mentioned in football.

I can see how some people are deliberately trying to shift the blame from the mental midget to his team mates....sighting one time pass and all...una doh oh! Una go dey alright last last cheesy cheesy maybe it is one time passes that have made him disappear when we needed him most this season or stopped him from attempting to score whenever he gets the chance?

Hazard being one of the oldest players and most celebrated player in cfc as at today have not done shyttee apart from useless take-ons. If we had a player like him and useless fernadud forming star boys in the team....by now will won't have the CL people like old lampard, old drogba,mikel,ramirez,betrand etc suffered to give us.

He and cvntois can fvck off come end of the season.....
not attacking your post o.
Is it that the large Chelsea fan base have celebrated hazard (according to you) all these years just because of his take ons?

I just want an answer. No argument.

In 2010 was it not the effort of rookies like Muller Boateng Neuer Ozil that took Germany to the 3rd place before they improved it one step to make the final and win?

Great players make history not wait for someone to carry them like a cripple

In Hazard time , Chelsea had Costa a very good striker, Mata, Lampard, Kante Azpilicueta Cortouis Alonso, Luiz Christensen Terry, Fabregas Matic who many of you have called top class talents and players

So you are telling us these players are not good enough to carry Hazard, he needs to go to a team where the players have struggled to win world cup in the past before Hazard can perform
that is the problem with your argument. How many of this players played together at a time. Someone who does know will think all these players were all together in one team at their prime and failed to win anything. Why didn't you include Drogba?

The Hazard you know is different from the one that plays week in week out

Willian has been Chelsea best player in the last few months and actually dominated a top team like Barcelona but he is not good enough for Hazard
mata and lamps that i mentioned is about players that are good in one touch football and not about being good enough. Don't change the subject.

We had 14 shots to Tottenham’s 12, but the visitors mustered seven on target compared to four of our efforts, all of which came in the first half.
Willian and Marcos Alonso had a joint game-high three attempts for us.
We had a 48.7 per cent share of possession and completed 384 of our 494 passes. No player made more successful ones for us than
N’Golo Kante ’s 51. Antonio Rudiger was next with 47. Mousa Dembele and Eric Dier, with 56 each, made the most overall.
When it came to key passes, Eden Hazard’s six was three times more than anyone else on the pitch. The Belgian also completed a game-high four dribbles.
The teams were evenly matched aerially, winning 13 duels apiece. Alvaro Morata and Dele Alli topped that list with four each.
Kante made seven successful tackles, with
Antonio Rudiger winning five and Cesar Azpilicueta four. Kante ’s six interceptions was also a game-high figure.
It is the first time we have lost a home game having taken the lead since 1 April 2017, exactly a year before.

That is what we call small pikin football. Running with the ball. First thing they teach you in an academy is pass moves faster than human.

Any player who likes to run with the ball after more than 4yrs in football is a useless player nd simply lacks the talent.

Its obvious that the results are very different when you pass and move vs when you run, if you simply refuse to see it or use it its either you are born to be a loser or dont have the talents to do it

Anyone can finish with aplomb randomly, or even do one spectacular thing one or two times, Doing it consistently is what proves you
i don't know the point you are trying to make with this post. The hazard i know is also very good in one touch football, something that he has stated that he enjoys doing after that match against Brighton that he combined with bats and willian for the Willian goal. The question is, does Chelsea have players that like to play one touch?
The last two players that played like for Chelsea are mata and lamps. You can see the number of assists and chances hazard created then.

Aside that, hazard still ranks high in key passes in the league every season even without setpiece. So, your argument of whether he is dribbling with the ball or passing it does not hold water.

To be fair, Hazard doesnt actually make that many runs. I think Ibime was calling him out on this a long time ago.

I think Gary Neville has missed the point with Hazard - That guy isn't interested in scoring goals. He has kuku said it himself 100 times.

Instead of attacking space and waiting for somebody to pass him the ball for a tap in, Hazard naturally wants the ball played to feet so that he can run at players.

He's a creator not a finisher. He will never be one either. I have now made my peace with this.

I think for next season if we must keep Hazard, we need to go and look for people capable of making those runs. Pedro instead of Willian. An Aguero type of sharp striker.

That's what Liverpool have with Salah. Mane plays quite similarly to Hazard. All Salah does is relentless attack the space.
true, hazard does not make many runs for a tap in, but the runs have reduced.

But, that being said, does Chelsea really play like that? Does Chelsea have an efficient attacking pattern like the way they have for defending? For the past few years, how many of our strikers goals are tap ins, talk less of wide midfielders? If hazard is to make a run for a tap in, who will make an effective cross or cut back for a tap in? I have seen many times hazard and many of our strikers have made a good run for a tap in, but the players that are supposed to cross the ball for the tap in will elect to shoot, delay to cross or not cross at all. Then, many times they end up shooting at the player in front of them. You see?

Chelsea have a fundamental problem of a playing pattern and continuity.
I can't think of a manager now that will not be sacked in Chelsea in more than three seasons.

Chelsea does not have a pattern of play. It is changing every 2 seasons and players are forced to adapt.
This is why I will continue to respect players like azpi and hazard that have shone in the team of every coach that has come to the club.

If Liverpool sack kloop today and hire Mourinho, Liverpool fans may start calling salah a fraud and one season wonder if they don't look at the issue critically to see the underlying cause.
Chelsea needs a change of mentality in the management for some of our players to stop looking like fraud to us after putting up great performances after the signing of a new coach. Performances that were inspired by new motivation of trying to impress the new boss and play in his team.

As long as Dembele has been on the pitch, Spurs have dominated us to shege. I don't know all this one you are typing. This result was a long-time coming.
i don't care if Dembele played or not, but the 3 - 0 during Mourinho's time was a complete domination for Chelsea. The 2 - 2 draw, they had the first half, we had the second. You can't be lucky for four years. Na lie.

He missed twice, Was it ALonso who stopped him the first time?
the first time, you can see that son was Quicker to poke the ball and Chris missed. The second, he was clearly impeded by alonso, and that was the only time he had a chance to clear the ball.

That Spurs win was a long time in coming. Spurs have been dominating us completely for the last 4 years but have been unlucky. It is only so long we can continue to tempt fate. I am not disappointed, I was expecting the defeat.
this is a lie. For all i can remember. Chelsea vs Tottenham have mostly been a game of 2 halves.

The season we won the league under Mourinho, we completely dominated them and won 3 - 0. The 2 - 2 draw was a game of two halves. They dominated the first, then we dominated the second. The only one you can say that is a little bit of luck is the last season 2 - 1.

There's a reason why Courtois has a lower save percentage than the likes of Jack Butland, and both Crystal Palace Keepers, despite facing almost 100 fewer shots than them.

With Courtois, we know that at least 1 in 3 goals he has conceded this season, he could have done better



If you have a goal today that is a result of Caballero's mistake, point it out, otherwise Guy shut the eff up forever
i will blame him for the first goal. He did not try to punch that ball because he has already judged that it will go over the bar. He did not just attempt by raising his hand and making sure that he has covered his goal. This is exactly one of the reasons i don't like Courtois. Laziness.

Perfect sarcasm by pep guardiola




“The secret to my success? Why it’s always managing the better team in a two team league.”
Pep Guardiola took time out from his busy schedule to tell us about how to make it as the best manager in the biz.
“Firstly you need to be hired by the biggest club in the world as your first job. Make sure the club has a once in history generation of young players already developed by your predecessors.”
“I can’t stress this enough: have the best player of all time as your number ten. It really helps get you noticed. Then add a squad of guys like Ronaldinho, iniesta, Xavi, Henry and so on. Now watch the trophies roll in while you play Words with Friends on your phone.”
“When you get sick of winning European cups, use your reputation to land a job with one of the biggest sides in the world in a two team league in Germany where you can collect any player you want from any other side like fucking pokemon cards.”
“It’s so easy you can spend most of your time preparing speeches for managerial award ceremonies. ”
“Finally, when your players are getting too old to get past Juve in the semis, just jump ship to wherever the oil money is and start playing real life fantasy football.”
“To be honest I was told England was a two team league as well but when I realised the second team was our reserves I knew I’d done it again. It really is as simple as that. I just don’t know why everyone doesn’t do it.”
“Now if you’ll excuse me I’ve a manager of the month award to accept.”
i can't believe pep said this. Do you have a link to it?

Pressed on what Dembele must do to fit the Barca mould, Xavi added: “He will have to learn to think faster, in a few thousandths of a second. This is where we will see if he has the mentality.
“He must say to himself: ‘l am a Barca player’. You have to be mentally strong, to have conviction.
“There are average players who spent 15 years at Barca, because they had character. And there are some excellent players who did not do anything because they couldn't handle pressure.
“In training, when you saw them, you would say to yourself: ‘They will break everything. They're going to be legends’. But no. As soon as they entered the pitch, their legs started shaking, they did not want the ball anymore. And you would wonder: ‘Holy f***, what's happening to them?’”
