Identified and signed are two different terms mugu. cheesy

We both know Conte has no time to be identifying players upanddan.The koko is whether Emenalo signed that boy for Conte. The article you just posted does not indicate that this is the case.
If Conte fully bought into that process, he would have cut the boy some slack.

The way Conte is treating Michy, you sef go know there is something personal involved, grin grin grin

on your first paragraph, credit should go to emenalo for sanctioning deals to sell out Ramirez and Mikel. CU's he did what he always does, which is getting who ever the coach, scouts identified and selling who the club thinks are not needed in their plans again.

On your second paragraph. All the players you mentioned were identified by either conte, abramovic. Emenalo just steps in to seal deals.. These are two different things. Emenalo operates what ever player the club gives him, his duty is always to fly ,talk with these agents for possible deal.

In the Chelsea hierarchy any transfer that goes south should be blamed on either from the coach, scouts or the ones Mr abramovic love to have in his team. Mr emenalo is there to seal deals not look for players..

Left back not recommended by conte? Who really did it?. Nwanne free papers and their rubbish they write to generate crowd on their site.
From experience I know arguing with you is frustrating

I will just forget it

Although I like Michy (I'm not faulting Emenalo for signing Michy BTW), there is reason why Conte won't give Michy the time of day

that is a lie..

I asked you before a season start, " is it safe to say that all transfer this season was identified and signed by conte. You answered " that all transfer done this season was done by conte, and that emenalo have not seen his time to start his mischievous dealing again".

Reason why I asked you that was that I know someday again you will blaim emenalo if one of these transfers are not performing...

I followed Chelsea transfers and I can say that most of Conte's first target didn't come because of two reasons:

1. The club refusing to sell

2. The price been quoted is too much that conte doesn't see the price right.

I can remember reading his interview where he said " he doesn't want to sign just because a club wants to sign, but to sign players who suits his plans for appropriate fees. That aside.

Assuming it was only kante that turned good out of the four transfers Chelsea had, can you also blaim emenalo for signing liuz, Alonso and batshuayi if these three players turned to be bad deals.

How can conte sign Luis, kante and Alonso and then allowed emenalo to sign Batshuayi ??
Leave it out bruv.

Ain't got time to discuss Emenalo again. I'm happy as long as Mikel and Ramires are out of my club. If Emenalo decisions give me headache again, I will come for him. . . . but right now I'm content.

Can you quote me where I said Emenalo did not sign any player? I said Conte has more power being a new manager coming in and can make demands, does not mean Emenalo is powerless. And from what we are reading recently, he clearly is not powerless. I even clearly said that Batsuayi is an Emenalo signing but that I rate Batshuayi and am happy with his signing. I also stated Luiz is an Abramovic signing but I'm happy that Conte got his midfield reinforcement in Kante.

So stop lying on my name and attributing false quotes to me. I am responsible for what I write, not what you understand.

So there's zero possibility terry would be getting a stand.
For me, he would need to do something in management or in the boardroom to get a stand. His playing career is not enough.

Only likes of Messi can get a stand off playing career alone.

Fans are calling for a stand at the new Stamford Bridge stadium to be named after John Terry, in honour of his great service to the club.

Breathe Chelsea | #breathechelsea
Nah, he gets a statue at best.

Stand is for long-life legends and is something you give to old men who spent a whole lifetime increasing the fortunes of the club eg Bobby Charlton and Sir Alex.

You need to be sure that that person will end up among the top 4 legends in your clubs future history, as there are only 4 stands in a stadium.

Conte has almost complete freedom of the city. Emenalo just does the negotiations. He speaks directly to the people he wants.

Then Emenalo does the logistics.

I thank God say na conte dey sign. He will sign what he thinks is best for his team.
Don't be sure of that. Emenalo is a powerful man.

As I understand it, the Lukaku vs Morata argument is a tussle between Emenalo and Conte.

Michy was also signed for Emenalo which is why Conte has been sidelining him.

Technically he is just meh. Who do you see us getting in the summer?

That midfield really needs enforcement. I have lost sight on Bazoer, he was one lad I could have gone for but I don't know what's up with him ever since he moved to Wolfsburg.

Teilemans have always been on my lips for ages. Young, ruthless and creative. I believe Anderlecht needs the cash.
Tiellemans is good, but I'm even fine with Ake, Chalobah and Pasalic and Van Ginkel sef

Griffon:
Before he receives the ball, he doesn't have his head up. He is always looking at the ball and as result of this, he fails to analyze the field quickly.
This is the part that gets me. Everytime you pass him the ball, he has to look at it to trap it, wasting vital time and potentially in danger of being dispossessed. I have never seen a professional footballer that needs to look at the ball when trapping it. My man literally stares at the ball, knowing his ball control is too suspect. Even I stopped looking at the ball from the age of 10.

This dude is hardly better than an amateur footballer technically.

If Juve play 3 at the back then Madrid is in trouble

BBC will easily handle those crosses and Alves and Sandro should be able to handle Marcelo and Carvajal

If Madrid want to win the UCL they will have to do better than crosses
Yeah, could be 50:50 but we go see.

Madrid no dey struggle with teams we would find difficult because they have more variations to their play. They are a counterattacking team that can also control possession with Kroos and Modric if need be. They can also get goals from defence if game is tight. Any style of play, they are decently equipped.

Bakayoko is horrible on the ball especially with passes. He lacks ball technique and seems insecure when he has to make a pass past one player.
Please go and tell GeniusDavid abi Davidgenius who came here boldly to tell us Bakayoko is a passmaster because he read that Bakayoko has 80+% passing success. He thought it's JAMB score, not knowing all midfielders have 80+% pass success.

How can you make only 40 passes per game, and all your passes are 5 yard passes to defenders.

The scout wey scout this guy for Chelsea should be shot. If it is Conte that wants this guy, I will happily call Conte a fool despite everything.

Your boy Bakayoko has done it again. He just caused Juve 2nd goal due to his dithering ball control.

I did not mention the first goal where he was tracking Higuain.

Juventus clearly stole Pjanic for his release clause of 25m Euros. Highway robbery things.

Meanwhile we have this dithering fool Bakayoko who takes 2 seconds to trap the ball. The ninja never reach Chelsea yet and he's already giving me more HBP than Ramires used to.

I meant best foreign player in Italy the equivalent you showed us Figo won in Spain.

That 2001 wpoty was a compensation not that anyone wad outstanding that year. Was that not the year Michael Owen was balon dor.

There is no similarity between Figo and Dinho. Dinho was more skillful and a bigger goal threat.

Figo was the old school winger mostly in a 442. Like Amunike. I'm on mobile and can't check his goals scoring record but I'm sure if we remove penalties it will be mediocre.

Vidigal won't be much worse than Deschamps of 2000 who could barely turn

Rui Costa, Sergio Conceicao, Fernando Couto, Joao Pinto, Jorge Costa, Vitor Bahia talent for talent can match the best in Europe that time

After Euro 2000 Blanc and Deschamps went into retirement

Figo cant be compared to Ronaldo type winger at all, Figo highest was 2002/03 10 league goals a season 5 of which were penalties
next was 04/05 where he scored 8 league goals of which 6 were penalties

So how can Figo be the proto-type to Ronaldo winger the scoring wingers? Figo was strictly a winger for 442
Figo of course played 4-3-3 at Barca and 4-2-3-1 at Madrid often.

Figo birthed Ronaldo pre-2008, that whole stepover style. If Amuneke does stepover, he will break his ankle. Mind you the 14 goals back to back Figo posted those two seasons was unheard of for a winger those days.

How can Portugal match anyone talent for talent. Joao Pinto that never left Portugal and only made double figures twice in a league where Jardel was touching 40 goals? Jorge Costa the fat local champion only made it out of Portugal to Charlton. Vitor Baja was a basket. The only player with any status there is Rui Costa, and he was even exposed when he moved from Fiorentina to Milan.

If we talk about France, we talk about Lizarazu, Thuram, Vieira, Petit, Candela, Desailly, Pires, Henry, Anelka, Trezeguet not mentioning niggas that couldn't make it like Makelele. France should walk that game blindfolded. Not more that two Portuguese players can make a combined 11. Infact I doubt you can do a combined 11 with any Portuguese player but Figo, so how does Zidane scoring a dodgy penalty in extra-time make him WPOTY over Figo that year?

Serie A player of the year 2000 was Sheva who was the comparable talent to Figo. Not Zidane. You cant see Zidane and figo on the field in 2000 and not see the difference

Its like seeing Ribery and Messi on the field, while Ribery will be hustling to make things happen, Messi will do the same with a cigar in his mouth

That France vs Portugal go check the overhead control, Zidane did and laid the pass to Henry/Anelka. Ball control only Zidane murders Figo

Euro 2000 semi and world cup 2006 quarter are 2 of the best Zidane games I have ever seen he shat on the entire midfield
Serial A player of the year 2000 was Totti.

Figo is not on Shevas level. Figo is a WPOTY himself in 2001. He was the prototype that sprung the modern Ronaldo-type winger, before that most wingers were run and cross.

World Cup 2006 quarterfinal is the best game I've ever seen Zidane play. 2000 semi, he was facing Vidigal and co. That one na midfield?

Have you started skipping your meds again

Zidane was in Juvetus in 2000, So how will Zidane from Italy be in contention for the best foreign player in La Liga or better still let me counter with this Figo was unable to win Serie A best foreign player while playing for Barcelona shows Zidane is better cheesy cheesy grin

Zidane was carrying geriatrics quater to retirememnent like Blanc Deschamps and Dessailly with big game wastemen like Henry
OK, you got that. Now name the Serie A player of the year, let's see if Zidane was even in the running for his own league. Also name the France11 Vs the Portugal 11, make we see say shoe get size. In 2000, Figo was head and shoulders above Zidane. In those days, we used to refer to World Soccer POTY as well after FIFA award, and Figo won that as well as the Balon Dor. It's not by telling us he beasted with a dodgy penalty in the Euro semi that would make me rate Zidane over Figo that year.
