Someone said Jackson didn’t start his football career from academy is the reason for his low iq in front of goal. Did Weah, Drogba, eto, a Pele, etc start their career from academy?

Against Bournemouth, he held the ball in a tight space and scored. Sth jack cannot do
That’s how because it’s inside the box that it require two touch before shooting unlike outside the box that he will be expected to pass which is not really good at.

nkunku is a sub ten that operates primarily in the 18 yard box
Sub 10 kor sub zero ni. Nkunku don’t even possess number ten quality and can only be effective in two set up which is 442 or 352 formation. He is a second striker that is why it is expected of him to shine as lone striker too and not number 10. For Nkunku to play you need solid number 6 and 8 with height behind him to make the team remain offensive and possessive because he is a liability without the ball. Even with the ball he is not a great ball holder in tight space. Jackson is playing ahead of him because of this reason.

City don sign like 2 players already. Possibly gonna sell Walker to AC Milan too. We are unable to sell a spoon or get a plate yet.....damn United is fuckẹd!
Seriously you guys are bleeped. Your players are unattractive except you sell or loan for cheap which will not be enough to balance book. Hoping you guys don’t go the way of Leeds. Selling part of the club to a British man is another f up, Americans are even more better if they refused Arab money. Just pray.

All these ones you are saying are stories. We all saw him during pre season and how well he played as a number 10, even the manager said it that it's just unfortunate that there is a better player at the number 10 role.
pre season? How about the season so far where has he played most so far. Nkunku is not any number 10, Felix is even more of number 10 than him. He played as supporting striker for his former club in 352 formation. He is not 10 like Palmer or Odegaard or Bruno.

Why can't Reece James just stay fit?

Why?

We're being robbed of an all timer.
As in, it’s just so hurtful. He is an X factor type of player.

LMAO, this is wrong about Nkunku. Nkunku has never been a number 9. The only reason he is on the bench is because we have a better player in the number 10 role and maresca only plays with one number 10.
He is not even a number 10, he is a supporting striker at best and should be able to play as Striker if not that he lack that tenacity and ground covering upfront.

German league is more like friendly games, it is the reason most players from there flop in epl, they can’t keep up with the intensity if not I don’t see why Nkunku will be on the bench for Jackson with his poor scoring ability.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by hensben(m): 10:59am On Jan 21, 2025
Maresca should play Felix as inverted LWF since Cucurella can bump forward too. Felix deser be to start and be taking dribbling risk from that side instead as number 10

The only issue with Lavia is his injuries. Chelsea plays better with him on the pitch. How is Lavia short for a DM? It seems you love Gidigbo so much that you forget that although important, football doesn't revolve around height and power. At 5'11 Lavia is tall for a DM. I mean Fernandinho who won multiple epl is 5'10. There's Enzo who won the world cup as a CDM at 5'10.

The best DM in seria A for the past 3 seasons or thereabout is 5 ft 6. If Chelsea were to play Napoli today, he'll dominate and break lots of play despite his height.

At 5'11, Lavia is tall enough and good. Injury is the p. There's also Caicedo who's good enough unless you're looking for a Jorghnho type of DM.
I like Lavia but…..

Your own is just to agree on everything your master says.... Just weeks ago, Caicedo was hailed as one of the best DMs in the league and now, he is not what Chelsea needs.

Caicedo has the perfect combo of what it takes to be the best DM in the world.
Who is my master? You Dey craze for that talk. I’ve being saying here that Caceido is not a CDM but box to box that is good in tackles. I even went further to say if Lavia can stay fit we will have a good season.

Caicedo is not a competent DM by the way, he's a good 2nd midfielder

But no better than Kovacic as a 2nd midfielder
we just need that CDM in the mode of Xabi Alonso or Rodri if we plan to be solid and dominating offensively. Lavia is good but seems to lack some stuff yet and short too for a CDM.

I’m jealous of Newcastle’s midfield, that’s how I want my midfield. With the trio defense and attack don’t have much problem to deal with.

They underrated Gallagher
Even if we think English players sometimes are overrated they understand the league better, it is strength, pace and aggressiveness with a touch of technicality. Nkunku was bought to be first choice but unable to adapt due to the reasons above. Enzo run with the ball is like someone running in the dream when he fold his leg before sleeping. Felix will even be more useful in that role if Maresca know what he is doing.

Enzo is the reason we are losing. Since he came back into the team, every match is a loss or draw. I don't give a Bleep what anyone thinks he is playing, he is not doing midfield work. Too many gaps when he plays
Gallagher was interpreting that role better but because they want to balance the book with an academy player he was sold.
European Football (EPL, UEFA, La Liga) › Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by hensben(m): 10:01pm On Jan 14, 2025
Enzo is not interpreting his role well. Nkunku was bought to be first eleven but it doesn’t fit into this formation. No agility and determination to play. SMH

If not for ph00loshness.... no way we push out players like Guehi, Tomori, chalobah and co... Just to sign retards like Disaster, Fofana and co. By the way, Ice Cold Palmer is working well for you, no? In recent past, the likes of John Terry, Joe Cole, Ashley Cole and Frank Lampard... have all worked well for you or not?
Well, you are not wrong.

This is what you get by benching Marc Guiu.

Lazy 27 year old Nkunku is matured and ready for eplgrin grin grin grin grin grin

If delap and Hutchinson were at Chelsea,they will be wasting on bench.
Nkunku is even afraid to put his body on the line. In epl, talent is not enough, you have to be aggressive and strong, it is the reason most German players flop in epl.

This is why i acknowledged your football knowledge. Some of this guys are not seeing what we are seeing. While we were winning I wasn’t carried away and still called out Jackson’s inability to shoot and lack of sense. If the coach can trust Guiu that area will experience improvement. There is a reason I don’t like half brain footballers like Sterling, Jackson and co, their uselessness shows in every game they feature in.

Just listen to yourself,
So, are you saying Pep needs the best players before he can claim to be the best coach? Isn't that exactly what we've been saying all along, that Pep cannot succeed without a high-budget squad, which is why he’s often referred to as a "chequebook coach"?

You mentioned he needs his players back. Are those players he fielded from Leicester City or Ipswich Town?
Abi did he play those games with only 8 players against 11?
Or are you implying that the teams that defeated him had better players than the ones Pep fielded?
He won just 1 game out of 13, yet the value of the players he fielded was worth twice as much as those he faced. This clearly shows that, despite still having a better team on paper, he couldn't deliver results. How much worse would it be if he had a small-budget squad?

During Lampard's era at Chelsea, we had seven injuries to our regular starting XI, that’s more than half of the team on the injury list, yet Lampard didn’t play 13 games and win only one.

Below are the same posts claiming that Pep is the game-changer, the mastermind behind Manchester City's success, not the players, and he's the only one in that team capable of turning water into wine.

P.S. I will bring out more receipts tomorrow.
We have being vindicated finally. I’ve said it here that I like pep’s tactics but his achievement is overrated due to the resources and lack of challenge he has faced. Any time he wants to face real challenge he opt out. Next bus stop will definitely be PSG.
