Godx:
Where have you seen Foden taking penalties.

Penalty is not easy as you think. Foden shooting technique on pk is poor. The fact that Palmer do it easily doesn’t mean it is easy, it takes a lot of techniques.

Godx:
You are a joker.

According to the article he was forced to use it due to injury for some games but didn’t believe in it until conte used it to win the league.

Godx:
Mr man penalties has an Xg of 0.8 which means they are a usually a guaranteed goal. Stop arguing and learn. Palmer had a brilliant season boosted by lot of penalties yet he didn't come close to Foden.

But Foden is not good at it, how come.

Godx:
Penalties has an Xg of 0.8 so yes they are easy to score.

No they are not, if they are then every other aspect of the game is easy. Palmer beast Foden this past season, he won epl best because his team won the league.

Godx:
Tell me the season Pep city played 3-4-3 or 3-5-2.

He started playing three at the back after seeing Conte used it to win the league. Pep didn’t play three at the back while at Barca and Bayern. Why are you arguing what happened yesterday here.

Godx:
Palmer season was boosted by the amount of ridiculous penalties he took. Admitting that won't change anything. Foden was head and shoulders above Palmer.

But is penalty easy to score? Foden has being tested to play it and missed. Taking penalty is not for everyone, Foden is not good at it.

Godx:
Pep has never played 3 at the back that resembles anything like conte own at City. Pep has only used a variation of 3 at the back last season a whooping 5 years after Conte left Chelsea.

He started using in Conte’s second season for Chelsea, he had to go even buy players suited for it. Mr you are not being truthful here.

Godx:
Foden has 19goals and 8 assists with zero penalties.

Palmer had 22goals and 11assists with 9 penalties. This notion that Palmer was even close to Foden in terms of performance should die a natural death.

Foden isn’t good at penalty so wasn’t trusted for it, it’s not Palmer fault that he is good at it. England lost euro due to penalty miss. You are saying it like taking penalty is not part of skill players should posses.

Godx:
Pep has been playing a variation of 3 at the back right from his Barcelona days. Stop this forced agenda that he copied Chelsea Conte.

Lies. Pep played three at the back in epl as formation after Conte used it to dominate that season.

Jude for me, he is the most overrated here. Real madrid tax, couldn’t win German league with Dortmund, even with Halaand as striker. Most talented and gifted here is Palmer then Foden, Saka next before Jude.

We are coming, we helped pep play three at the back before so it’s nothing new.

oliverano:


More like Pep Guardiola and Co

Meanwhile, have you noticed that every Chelsea player is always better than other players when compared individually but not great as a collective or when it's time to show winnings.

For instance, Palmer is better than Foden, Fofafa is better than Ake, James is better than Walker. Yet in another argument, Sterling is a world class player helping Pep to dominate EPL. Same world class Sterling came to Chelsea and became the most hated and top class flop.

Then they claimed the players at city are doing well because of the system created by Pep, yet Pep is a fraud #Fraudiola!

Competing against teams like Chelsea and Man U having management problem for sometime now is not a flex. Arteta new to the game while Klopp didnt have the resources to compete against pep.

BlueAngel444:
apart from "copying" or "mirroring" some online claims that Chelsea have a squad that fit Enzo better than the other options and RDZ personality didn't fit at this "new" Chelsea.

Anyway considering how Enzo plays, what are chances would you give, he makes top four next season or wins a trophy.

Top 4 is sure

Vischy:
Every club must hire a bald head now or a pep assistant because pep is now the standards.

Imao this is hilarious....

Its not about Pep it is the trajectory of how life work. Conte used 3 at the back to win epl, even Pep started using 3 at the back at some point.

Tesenak20:
7 PLAYERS CHELSEA NEED FOR THE 2024/25 SEASON

1.ALEXANDER SCHLAGER(GOALKEEPEER)
2.RICCARDO CALAFIORI(DEFENDER)
3.KRISTOFFER AJER(DEFENDER)
4.VITALY JANELT(MIDFIELDER)
5.GIOVANNI FABBIAN(MIDFIELDER)
6.ARNAUT DANJUMA(MIDFIELDER)
7.SEBASTIAN HALLER(ATTACKER)

Wetin be this? 😂

Vischy:
Ikenna did a better job to me than Enzo Maresca with Ipswich town but it's well..

We hope for the best.....

Ikenna’s tactical acumen doesn’t really suit technical players which we have in abundant. It’s just like getting Potter all over again. You guys don’t really pay attention to this things.

Vischy:
Enzo Maresca will be getting Chelsea job because he was pep assistant, nothing else because Leicester should have won championship comfortably with their squad but they almost bottled it to the point of losing their last game against blackburn rovers.


Damn they're lucky it's championship but this is epl and the standards are ridiculously high.

Was he not the one that extend the lead with 20 points in the first place. Football nor be 1+1=2. What matters is his tactics, if it suit the enormous talent we have then we are good to go.

Vischy:
He literally struggled to win after being 20 points away from others in December.

And come on ,this is Leicester city in Championship,whoelse should win it?

That was due to fatigue as a result of shortage of players at some point. If you observe we didn’t suffer fatigue even when hit with injuries due to surplus of talent. Poch was just naive not to try new tactics until…

omotola90:
he will suprise many

I love Italian coach for one thing, they can turn nothing to something in terms of player’s improvement.

WhoDeyHause:
This Maresca even looks worse than Ikenna to me this one he almost bottled a 20 point lead in championship.
But wetin man go do we've already seen worse and it's just to hope for the new manager to do well or pray English parliament would find evidence linking Boli and Egbami to the Israel gaza war. Na apari season we dey.

There are no perfections, he won the league is what matter. Pep won the league on the last day in epl. Enzo is the best option among others. I’m 100 percent in support of his signature. He is Italian? they are always tactical which suit English football, coupled with learning work from Spaniard.

andrewbaba44:
I only complained about injuries affecting my team at the ucl last season .

We have injuries at barca this season but you won’t see me complaining,because Madrid even had more and they won the league .

Your team is not the best out there ,but you have the squad depth to make top 4 with injuries .

Look at what you played at the epl when it was already too late ,you will know your team is not that bad as you all thought

Madrid is mixed with experienced players and most of them wasn’t signed this past season like Chelsea

Ijustwantto:
Andrew just dey pepper Chelsea fans. Whodeyhause don go hide for cave. Him go still get mind come barca thread dey yarn

He is not peppering anything. Man U and Barca fans have being complaining all season. Posdigger you are needed.

andrewbaba44:
Injury is not an excuse not to make top 4

How is it not an excuse for the team when in your thread you complained of same thing at some point.

AdisaOwala:
Haha

Are you now trolling your own club?

We are already in it even if it is not our standard. We will be back to top 4 next season if the team is 80 percent free of injury at least.

andrewbaba44:
Italian league have 5 spots and not 6

Leave arsenal Newcastle and Man U alone ,even if an English team made it to the ucl final you still didn’t come 5th to take the spot ,so stop ranting .

You didn’t do your home work well ,I can list out 3 games where you should have easily gotten a win instead of a draw and with that you should have made top 4

Should we start from where you couldn’t beat a 10 man burnley who where red carded at the 40th minutes ?

Aston Villa and spurs kept dropping point but your team kept refusing to catch up

Lmao

We didn’t do our part this season due to massive injury in the team. However, it helps also if Man U and co did well in the ucl. It gave German and Italian league more spots.

Lana1:
AIT sef dey if NTA no work. Chelsea fans are covered

If you don’t know Chelsea is about to go give that trophy more value. We popularized epl and european trophies out there in Africa but myopic fans sees it as noise, it is passion and dedication for the game. The next step is to extend the passion to NPFL, it doesn’t cost anything, it will help the country’s economy.

Arsenal, Newcastle and Man U represented epl poorly in the UCL. Now Italian league has 6 spot for ucl. Chelsea will be back to raise epl in Europe again.

Lana1:

Same player that won ucl, cwc and super cup with us. Lol

Poch should be called and sacked again for lack of in-depth tactics, we would’ve finished top 4 easily if he didn’t make Caceido to sit almost throughout the season. I am not even a professional coach yet I was using it to sing here that Caceido shouldn’t be sitting as traditional CDM. With the amount he was signed he should be everywhere in the pitch which he is very good at and not tactically stationed.

drisham:
So you think we are still a top team

We need to go to the top again and a good coach is needed for that. We are still a big club, it’s not only winning trophies that make a club big.

drisham:
Why don't we hire lampard then and give him the chance to become the next pep guardiola

Since he is also young
At least we will spend 2 season battling relegation but it will finally click



We will be here next season sha

Lampard doesn't have the technical ability to evolve a top team.

This crystal palace Eze is a traditional number 10, it’s so rare to find them this days. If we can loan Chukwuemeka and sign him I won’t mind. These are the type of players Man U should be going for but unfortunately they are most times blinded by white supremacist tendency to sign players.
