Yes he was.

Gusto swiftly ran in front of Mitoma before the ball landed and he couldn't gain possession of the it. Calculative.

Gusto is a small man

Because Kante can run across a man in full physical contact to steal ball without censure from referee doesn't mean Matic can do the same thing.

you said they won't even see 30 now you are saying 100 won't get them anywhere. you are all over the place. they are expected to flip 114 seats as labour continues to sink their chances increase. lets not forget labour will also lose seats to other parties. So tell me if the chance for them to lose power is not highly possible

I am using your numbers to show you the unlikelihood even if we use your numbers.

UKIP (Nigel Farages previous party) polled 18% in a previous election and came up with one seat.

All that happens is their vote will be like 10-30% across many seats but not enough to take the seat.

What they do is dilute Conservative numbers and allow Labour a victory.

All it takes is to change Kemi to an old boy Conservative and they'll abandon Reform and come back.


100 seats is not enough for you to be given mandate to seek partners to form Government. The party with most seats will be given that mandate which should be around 270 plus seats. Now the only party that will agree to partner Reform is Conservatives. But if Reform has 100 plus seats, guaranteed they took so many of them from Conservatives that Conservatives won't be the ones with 270 plus seats and the mandate to form a Government. That means if would likely be Labour, and every party except Conservatives and Reform will agree to form Govt with Labour. This includes Scottish National Party, Liberal Democrats., Welsh Party, Greens etc.

Mind you I don't mind Reform as they are not a nasty party like American Republicans. They regularly sack party members caught making racist comments unlike Republicans and you could see during the riots that Farage was not down with the racists that made Apartheid Boy Elon Musk call for his ouster.

I made mention earlier that most of our players don't make use of their bodies and arms to full effect to get an edge. If i get the image or video of same situation involving Gusto and Mitoma minutes later, i will post it to make it easier to grasp. Gusto didn't allow him to control the ball and he gained possession. Mitoma was unruffled as Chalobah failed to do the needful without causing incursion.

Was Gusto last man?

Every excuse Ibime makes, he makes for Nwa Jesus.

Colwil does not get that level of understanding. 😢

Nwa Jesus has been exposed to more shaky midfield and never crumbled weekly like Colwill does.

Mind you, you don't judge a Centre back when his midfield is non existent. You can see how Akanji, Dias and co are fumbling this year and how VVD fumbled after Fabinho lost his legs before the coming of Gravenberch

bemeruca:
So polls cannot show how good reform is doing and if they are going to secure more seats?
you don start oh

Reform is on track to win more than 100 seats. they just past 200k members.
the party has the momentum and we may see partnership with conservative

100 seats out of 650 will not get you anywhere near Westminster even if those come true

airmark:
This one is different from Chalobah's.

Look at the ball on air encircled in red and the closeness between Chalobah and Mitoma and he still got the ball ahead of him. This is shitty defending at this level bro.

Nothing shitty about it. They are both running backwards meaning a header is out of the question. If you are suggesting Chalobah stick out a leg to clear the ball while running alongside Mitomas whose body is in-between the ball, then you have never played centre back before. Any attempt to make a first time clearance here is running high risk of clattering Mitoma and red card. Every sensible centre back will let him attempt the control and then gobble up the loose ball out of play, but nobody expects his touch to kill the ball dead and switch the odds in his favour

Jamiuokolaa:
I agree with the bolded...

Mitoma's touch was top notch, no doubt but the fact that Chalobah got so hypnotised to the extent that he did virtually NOTHING to prevent the eventually shot (the likely/obvious outcome in this context), is the crux of the matter here...

Mitoma fit dress ball from now till kingdom come but like you said, the likely outcome was always going to be a shot on goal and Chalobah DID VERY LITTLE to block the shot, or atleast put Mitoma off..

That feeble/non existent attempt to prevent the eventual shot that resulted in the goal is unacceptable.

Nope the touch took the ball away from Chalobahs centre of gravity. His body can't adjust to switching to his left that quickly. Anyone that's played football knows this

What will happen 99 times out of ten there is Mitomas touch will bounce a little bit from him, about 5 yards, and Chalobah will just eat it up with a clearance

The fact he killed the ball dead means Chalobahs bodyweight is already geared to pick up the loose ball in front of him, but the touch allows him to cut inside away from Chalobahs centre of gravity without a reaction

For some reason you think the polls are only for London and those countries are not involved

Which polls?

We talking proportional representation you talking polls

airmark:
Maresca would be seeing players making the same mistakes and he wouldn't correct them.

Colwill was too casual on the ball such that he easily becomes a target by opponents. These guys don't use their bodies and arms to shrug off opponents to gain full control of ball possession. An eye-sore, what the team have become under this kindergarten coach.

He said the club did all needed to be done in the window without getting a striker. Absurd.

That Colwill softer than a baby's bottom

airmark:
Chalobah was a sissy there.

Gusto was in a similar situation with Mitoma minutes later, and he swiftly got the ball ahead of him and shrugged him off. Chalobah is usually jittery in crucial moments when he is on 1 v 1 against a daring attacker.

Nothing like that. That touch gave him no time to react. Defenders are trained on probabilities, they defend against likely outcomes and don't try to anticipate someone doing something out of the ordinary. If you position to defend an unlikely move, you will get suckered by a basic one.

The great Ayala is not stupid for Bergkamp doing the same thing to him

I don’t know about the UK but that’s what people thought about Trump too in his first time. “Surely that many people won’t vote for the well known New York City con man over a more qualified candidate just because the other candidate is a woman?” And sure the did. Even while he lost the popular vote then, it was astonishing to see how many people couldn’t get past we don’t want a woman president mindset.

We often underestimate how people’s biases can erode their reason. I’ve heard it being called the normalcy bias. As a person you don’t want to cause yourself distress by thinking that there could possibly be that many racist or prejudiced people around you. So you dismiss it by saying surely that can’t happen. And then it happens and leaves you confused as to why such a huge number of people still harbor presumably archaic biases even to the point where they’ll vote against themselves to hold up those biases.

I saw the videos of the attacks on black people in the UK. Would I be surprised if some of the same black people who possibly feared for their lives at that time still vote for the party behind the ideology that caused the attacks? No I wouldn’t be.

GloriousGbola:
we are in the disinformation age

we saw how people were hoodwinked into voting for brexit

in the aftermath it was clear a large amount of people had no idea what the vote was actually about, what the outcomes were - o even teh truth about the nonsense farage posted on buses





you are assuming people will think rationally when all that will happen is someone will push their buttons.

right in front of us, trained auditors are defending this doge bs and elon musks outbursts. something that will get an entry level auditor sacked - broadcasting unverified information that will impact on their employers reputation as a competent organization

lol una no Sabi UK.

There are 650 seats in UK.

107 are already off the table for Reform (Scotland, Wales and Northern Ireland) who always vote for their National Independence parties or Labour.

73 are off the table in London

Add Liverpool (die hard Labour), Manchester, Birmingham, Bristol, Leeds, Leicester, Derby, Nottingham and half the seats are gone. As in no chance of picking up even 20% of the vote in any parliamentary seat in these Cities.

We've not come to many other towns yet

Then of the half the seats that's left we have die hard Labour and die hard Conservative towns. Even if they take Conservative votes there, they are going nowhere.

Reform is dead on arrival. If they take more than 10 seats at the next election, it's been a great election. With Kemi leading the Conservatives, they could possibly do better and go up to 15. 30 is a number I will put my house on.

Pochettino was sacked for telling those eediots upstairs that Caicedo and Enzo can't play together in midfield, e go clear for their eye

Griffon:
I highlighted this last season. He’s the short one in that midfield, he only showboats leaving the chunk of midfield duties for the over labored Caicedo.

Maresca in his uselessness should have spotted this and reverted to a 3-man midfield.

Even 3 man midfield can't save that eediot

We clearly saw last year once the eediot was dropped for Gallagher that can't even take care of the ball, we had the 2nd best points record from January till season end

Only an absolute FOOL will see evidence upon evidence for 3 years and not agree that Enzo is the BIGGEST problem in this team

Even this season we were winning when Lavia replaced him, within 2 to 3 weeks of his return, we're back to square one

Next time Nateevs tries to defend Maresca here ehn

God will forever punish Maresca for requesting replacement of Petrovic as his first action

AirBere:
This is the same doughnut formation Ten Zag used yahg got him sacked. No midfield coordination just pure vibes. He's gone

How will your midfield not be doughnut with that fake Argentinian who is always a day late and a dollar short to every press

Brighton should score 7. We need a good hammering for this Maresca eediot to sober up.

I swear it's better to play KDH than that training cone Enzo

Jamiuokolaa:
Black Weghorst?

Weghorst can't cover ground

Wrong thread

We are seeing how much pressure Jackson takes off the midfield with his hold up, link up and pressing.

Griffon:
This midfield is a joke.

Well, I’ll blame Jackson.

No Enzo is not the problem. Just let him throw one or two long passes. Useless Argentinian fraud!

We all know we are finishing 8th to 10th this season.

Useless coach!

Every Nkunku duel is a loss

Unlimited22:
Na him dey play all the 11 wings?

When has Chelsea ever overran any team in midfield in 3 years Enzo has been with us

We are always the ones being overran

See the way Elliot Anderson overran this Brighton midfield just 2 weeks ago, you will be ashamed for Chelsea midfield

Ilekokonit:
It baffles me too to be honest.

I've lived in the UK for decades and if you told me years ago that we could have thousands of white people old and young attacking mosques, burning hotels housing immigrants and attacking black people in the streets like happened in August last year during the Anti immigrant riots, I would have said this was not possible but alas it happened and it has made me rethink my safety and continued stay in the UK.

Even my Oyinbo neighbour who is married to an African woman seems happy with the anti immigrant riots based on some of his utterances around that time. I kukuma have now learnt to no longer see him as an open minded friend and I only interact with him only if necessary.

And it's going to get worse in the UK as the televised anti immigrant riots last year has let the racist genie out of the closet and Brits are now proud to wear the badge of honor of being called racist in public 'cos for the past 2 years the UK populace have been egged on by the racist rhetoric of the last conservative government and currently that of the crafty Kemi Badenoch who will sell her grandmother to become Prime Minister and Nigel Farage (Trump and Elon Musk's friend) of the racist Reform party who will probably become the next UK Prime Minister going by how toxic the racism in UK society and politics has become.

But what do you hear from black people and immigrants in the UK Deafening silence.

Calm down. Reform.wont even win 30 seats at next election talkless of Farage becoming Prime Minister

Unlimited22:
No be Enzo fault again? 😂

Enzo no dey pitch?

What kind of lazy pass was that from Enzo?

Maresca out!

Coach I will be going into match with Brighton knowing we already lost is a NO NO

Is that not offside from Welbeck?

So VAR no even review am?
