European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: EPL Chatroom - All Discussions by Griffon: 8:58am On Aug 22
Will not blame the girl, I’ll blame those bingos who imported those white cooperate nonsense to our land.

Nearly all African traditions have been lost through European colonialism, missionary activity, and Western cultural influence. In our bid, to behave like the whites, we are now seen normalizing the whites’ first name culture even amongst our elders. Our young people dressing naked publicly as part of Western clothing and beauty standards indoctrination. Some are even actively hawking their bodies just to acquire hair attachments.

Colonial languages becoming dominant in administration and education, sometimes at the expense of our indigenous languages. Dating and marriages practices, religious beliefs, traditional medicine, architecture, food systems and to even African philosophy of communal responsibility, concepts expressed through ideas such as Ubuntu - the belief that one’s humanity is connected to that of others. These are all facing competition from increasingly individualistic economic and social values which the whiteman cultures promotes.

I no go just blame the girl at all.

You think if Maresca had won the community shield against Arsenal these people will not be in my mention telling how they always said so?

The only fact constant about Maresca is that he is a fraud.

Winning Conference league with a caliber of Chelsea is not what i will rate him for.
Except that many aren't as serious as you are.

I am a Chelsea fan, whatever Maresca does or does not do at City is none of my business..

Winning Conference league, Club world cup and qualifying for the Champions league made him the best coach since Blueco took over. Shouting Maresca is a fraud one million times won't change the fact that he outperformed all other coaches (that are not frauds to have coached Chelsea under Blueco)

Let me repeat one more time, whatever Maresca does or does not do at City is not my business as I am a Chelsea fan. . He already etched his name in history as the first coach to win trophies under Blueco (something all the previous coaches under Blueco that are not frauds failed to achieve)
Will he even understand?

Abi BlueCo don craze.

🚨🚨BREAKING: Pedro Neto valued at close to £100m. [@JacobsBen]
When the interest is coming from the Arabians, it’s normal to inflate the valuation.

Al Hilal have talks scheduled with Chelsea this week to discuss Pedro Neto and Neto has already received personal terms proposal from the Saudi Club.

I believe Bodashile already set to join Napoli. Tosin and Disasi will not be in the team, even if they don't find moves away this window.
Good enough. The trio have no business being here in the first place.

No one will ever notice if these ninjas left.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Griffon: 7:34pm On Aug 16
Chelsea new numbers in the squad:

#2 - Marco Palestra (previously: Disasi)
#3 - Wesley Fofana (previously: Cucurella)
#4 - Valentin Barco (previously: Tosin)
#5 - Max Lacroix (previously: Badiashile)
#16 - Dario Essugo (previously: Ugochukwu)
#17 - Morgan Rogers (previously: Andrey Santos)
#23 - Geovany Quenda (previously: Chalobah)
#29 - Pep Chavarria (previously: Fofana)
#39 - Mike Penders (previously: Mathis Amougou)

Can we comfortably say Tosin, Disaster & Badboyshile are history?

Defenders deemed good enough for the club by our Ikotun pundit.

We can negotiate that. Arteta has little faith in youngsters as he’s poised to win by all means.

He shouldn’t have issues cashing on MLS.

Caicedobets:
The team is the most balanced in terms of age and quality since Clearlake took over
The minimum we should finish is second given Pep is no more and most of the big six are similarly in transition
Kimbeast:
We are all in agreement the team is stacked. No excuses or kini kon when the season starts. League or bust.
Guardiola's first season at City was full of unfulfilled expectations. Arteta needed five full seasons before winning the EPL.

Not to build defenses for Alonso but I believe with the tactical evolution I’ve seen at the Pre-season and the squad depth at his disposal, this squad will need some time to blend and get firing.

For all I know, we’re yet to have a defined approach and style of play. That’s not something you actualize and win with in a matter of weeks, more so in a league as the EPL where there are no rooms for experiments.

I’ll say in this particular order:

Defined Style Of Play
Top 3 League Finish
1 Domestic Cup.

We can build on these next season.

So Enzo received mixed reactions from the fans yesterday at the Bridge.

Heard that some sections of the fans booed him while some sang his name.

IMO, dude wasn’t asking for so much when he demanded that the club compete for trophies, Champions league football and make big name signings. It takes a winner to feel that way and voice out loud such concerns.

As much as Im not a big fan of his poor work ethic on the pitch, I believe his concerns are valid and he doesn’t deserve to be booed.

The only issue here is that he allowed his agent to run his mouth on his behalf. The flirting with Madrid and City shouldn’t have happened, he should have found a way to muzzle his dog.

Griffon:
TBH, I’m still trying to wrap my head around Alonso’s style of play.

Is he working with a possession based strategy, counterattacks or playing the channels?

Nothing is quite defined so far.
nateevs:
As far as I know, he wants his teams to do all 3. It might be the reason why it all looks very incoherent at the moment. It's a lot to master in only 4 weeks.
Well nateevs, shortly after the Milan game, Alonso made your point and prove my suspicions right that he actually intends setting us up looking unpredictable.

His speech was built on tactical versatility and unpredictability. Hence the incoherent styles of play at our friendlies.

Who is that 16 year old boy in Chelsea midfield

They should ship out Essugo to clear space for him

We can't be having a zero prospect like Essugo collecting dead minutes that could go to the lad
Mahdi Nicoll-Jazuli.

He is among the club's scholars for the 2026-27 season and will transition from a scholarship to a professional contract in January when he turns 17. He holds the record as the club's youngest starter in the UEFA Youth League, with his first start in the competition coming as a 15-year-old last season.

Colwill, Palmer and some other senior players have been publicly endorsing him for the first team because of his talent.

There is movement around Tosin Adarabioyo. He has a lot of interest according to reports but not yet disclosed.

Crystal Palace have submitted a loan offer including a mandatory option to buy for Axel Disasi. Negotiations between Crystal Palace and Chelsea are ongoing.

Badiashile is also leaving. There is interest from Napoli.
