It's all in your head!

if you read my post well you will notice i didn't say anything about his height. we have good defenders like Puyo cannavaro etc who were good defenders despites their height.
azpilicueta is more aggressive and weight about 7 Kg more than kounde
reece james weight about 12kg more and chalobah who is of the same age also weigh more. There are more to these things than height

yeah i have watched fofana far more than i have watched him, but i have watched him play enough to decide

I never call him flop. i just don't rate him. simple
end of discussion

So Kounde lightweight like this? Antonio bullied him wella in Europa sha. The only place I saw Kounde at Chelsea was in a back 3, or right back. EPL has too many physical duels

marti198:
. Chairmo when u look at the market for €20m+ you cannot get any player as good technically and as versatile as depay. Forget say na Man U reject, he has improved tremendously since his Man U stint. He was Barca’s highest goal scorer and best player before injury. If u are going by rejects klopp for no sign salah and man city for no sign de bruyne.



Depay is Netherlands best attacker easily. Bro is good at dribbling, scoring, set pieces and chance creation. For that low price he definitely will improve our attack.

Depay is not a bad idea if we are selling Broja

See Ramires chip wey Fran Kirby score just now

Singapore1:
Fofana would be a fantastic addition! But he spent most of last season being injured so i don't know

Don't trust signing players immediately after an ACL injury. At least give them one year to check they haven't lost speed

lateefGRDT:
boss the guy is actually a good defender, not just good going forward

That kind of gamble on an unproven player in a new position is for free transfer, not £40m

Sportsweb:
Aaron Wan-Bissaka?

Do you want Chelsea to move forward or backward?

£35-£40m on an experiment in a position he has never played before

benalvino3:
So why did you say if they are in recession she would have said it? She is hoping for a miracle. People who have seen the data is calling it. She is hoping the data will change and now they are changing definitions

When trump tried to give confidence about covid he was attacked.

Now they are changing the definition of recession.

Businesses, especially the tech industry have me making changes and adjustment because they know they are in recession already. It will only be announced this week.


Recession, coupled with inflation = stagflation. Biden. Messes everything up.

Irony about this is that Brian Deese, Biden's top economist... Director of the National Economic Council isn't actually an economist. He's a lawyer who worked in politics.

You can type what you want. If 2nd quarter comes in negative, every news channel will broadcast it as recession. That is what the market recognises and will tank in reaction. If Yellen has seen the GDP number, what she said indicates we will see a small increase in GDP, probably less than one percent. That's if she knows the GDP number.

benalvino3:
Hmm... It's not something sweet so why will she say the obvious when their message from time has been the opposite? The fact that you are still relying on those people are have been wrong at every turn is why I am calling you closed minded and voltron. You must defend

That job is not a basket mouth job. Their first job is to give confidence to the markets. Know this and know peace

benalvino3:
That's the problem. Cling to a definition of something. Wait for official announcement that's you.

Me: I see the state of the country, predict what will be announced long before it is because people are already experiencing the effect. The effect of recession will not suddenly manifest because of someone says so on a podium with a mic.

If recession is there, people will experience it before it is announced.

So stick to your definition. The economy is in the gutter, wait for the announcement that the economy is in the gutter. People are already experiencing economy that is in the gutter

Like I said, you are nothing but a fool regurgitating what you read from political standpoint on Twitter. GDP print is on Thursday. If Yellen announce today that we are in a recession, that means she knows the GDP number for Thursday and will tank the markets by 20% instantly. This is what markets watch for and adjust their position accordingly. You think that job is a basket mouth job cos you are a layman. The market is looking for the textbook definition, not your feelings. And even if we go on feelings, employment numbers do not corroborate feelings at this stage, not that they won't in future months when the impact of rate rises start to slow growth

benalvino3:
You can cling to their definition and nuance. While those of us with sense are saying it has started. Wait for official result... You will only realised it when something that is inevitable, I mean something that is the case as we speak right now is announced.

You don't have sense. You are a fool masquerading as someone with any knowledge. None of my economic outlook differs from yours except for the fact that you don't know simple definitions and the impact of those definitions being met. If recession is announced today, equity markets will tank 20% in one hour, and that's the difference between someone with money in the market who looks for official definitions as a consequence of having money in the market, and a layman just parroting political talk.

If job numbers come in way below expectation, equity markets also tank 5% instantly. Therefore those of us with money in the markets who know the definition of a recession as two quarters of negative GDP growth know exactly what Janet Yellen is saying cos if she told you there is a recession, stock markets will react instantly by 20%, and a deep recession defined by massive unemployment in addition to two quarters of GDP decline is nowhere evident in the numbers. America is at near record employment as we speak and there are more job openings than being filled. Below is US unemployment rate since 2002 showing that. You can see it reached 10% during the last recession in 2009. If the reverse was the case, I will increase my shorts. Yes, I have been shorting the market steadily in line with my gloomy economic outlook which is no different than yours, just that you don't know your definitions and the impact of these definitions on trading positions.

benalvino3:
Quit embarrassing yourself. U are now clinging to they are employing. You employ one or two, their pay means a lot less because of inflation, they are not spending because times are hard, their is less economic activities. That's a recession. We are seeing all that.

You are just too closed minded to realize.

Like I said, those of us with sense sease it, and we said it. You are waiting for the date the recession will be announced officially despite it being the case for months. Stick to your definition, we wey see am call am before it was announced.

What did you call? You foolish man who does not know simple definitions. Janet Yellen gave a simple definition and you are busy yarning megedefegede out of ignorance.

What is closed minded about me, or you forgot how my discussion with PrideofLincoln last year on the economic outlook? You are just a layman yarning your emotions, those of us with money in the markets are following the numbers and taking the appropriate steps. We are not in recession, full stop. GDP figures will be out tomorrow. We will know whether we are in recession then. And chances are 60-40 it comes out positive. If it comes out positive, we won't see recession till 2023 January at the earliest

benalvino3:
There are professors saying truth is offensive. There are doctors who cannot define what a woman is. Ibime is an economist that is biased.

What's the point of waiting? Does know sees what's going on. Actual economists running institutes are saying it. You can wait for when it's officially announced. Those of us who have sense knows it has started.

Even yelling says the economy is slowing down, even from the last negative report and she is blaming transition. Again, Voltron, the defender of the Biden-verse

Employment is growing he says.

Stats only please not megedefegede. Bring the employment stats. I have already said what the economic outlook is below but you are too stupid or caught up in politics to understand. I am trading thousands of dollars on official stats, not dem say, dem say, and the stats are what move the market.

Ibime:
Bear market usually lasts 18 months to two years from peak to bottom. November was peak so by my calculation, it won't be till late 2023 before we truly bottom out in the equity markets. I think we will hit official recession in Jan 2023, although there's a small chance we hit later this month, though consencus is that Q2 GDP will be slightly positive, meaning we then need Q3 and Q4 negative to enter official recession which I think interest rate rises will cause enough slowdown for that to happen. That should lead to a black swan event upon that result being announced which would also be a good entry point if you don't want to wait till late 2023.

benalvino3:
Ibime is out of touch with reality.

Ibime. Explain the transition and Putin that is the goto explanation for everything.

No, you are foolish. Ibime is an economist and knows the definition of recession as defined by two consecutive quarters of GDP decline.

And a deep recession defined by two quarters of GDP decline and job losses. Employment is growing

benalvino3:
TREASURY SEC. JANET YELLEN:

where is Voltron ibime, come and defend your people.

Foolish man. USA is not in recession

Abacha must be funding these guys with stolen loot from the grave. Let's give it up. These guys have money

Been long o. I remember 1992 Olympics where we had 2 finalists in the men 100M. Now we dont even qualify for heats anymore

Na 1992 Olympics I was referring to when Ohbritannia blamed Buhari for us not doing well. I just weak

Even FGC in Abuja is no longer safe. Na wa oh. Abuja done cast

FBS:
Hahahaha.
No sir. The mistake wasn't his in that match, go watch it again...
Plus I said he would be a good addition to our squad to which you replied he was rubbish. But now for whatever reason he is an upgrade. It's all good.
We all want Chelsea to be strong.

The mistake was his for sure as he was caught under the cross for Koman. He looked like a decent CB playing RB and he was targeted by Coman all night for 1v1 dribbles. He's not got the full skillet of a RB but will be just fine as an RCB

BlueAngel444:
funny thing be say na Tuchel bring them enter PSG and yet him dey ask for Kimpembe

Not sure why he hasn't considered them since Kounde and Kimpembe bids are failing. They are good players, just squeezed out by too much competition at PSG, same with Wijnaldum who will upgrade most teams CM position. It's not everytime you must chase players that are wanted. Some unwanted players also represent good upgrade at very cheap price, like Spurs did with Kulusevski and Bentacur who were also squeezed out by Juve overstocking in their positions.

FBS:
Wonders shall never end. Ibime for your mouth? Wetin lastma no go see for go slow! The same Thilo I mentioned some season ago and you were yarning opaks that he is a downgrade? Blaming him for the loss against.... Who was it sef, Bayern? All of a sudden he is now the best thing after slice bread? Lol.
Wetin elder dey see sitting under iroko tree....

Context is everything oga. You had him as an upgrade to James in RB. I disagreed. Now we are talking about RCB in a back 3. You dig the difference?

Yes he was good in that match but also made the error for the goal.

BlueMann:
E don tay small wey she dey around...I don't think we can lose her

The Qataris will pieces her with money oh. Might cost like $5m to keep her

It's been long since we enjoyed this in Athletics. I hope Govt will take care of her and not lose her to Qatar or some other country

BlueMann:
But this report is a bit somehow...PSG have agreed a £13m deal to sign him...does it mean we value Werner at less than £13m?

And why not add Werner to sign Gvardiol instead? This report no clear

With subsidisation of wages, Werner may be worth that amount. Leipzig won't really pay him more than £150k per week, so there is a £100k gap per week to fill over the remaining 3 years of his contract which is £15m for Leipzig to subsidise, ontop of that £13m transfer fee

BlueMann:
Chelsea are trying to steal Mukiele deal after full verbal agreement being agreed with PSG, Chelsea wants to include Werner in the deal. PSG remains confident and aims to have player to be part of the group on Wednesday. #CFC #PSG

I say again, we need a sporting director asap because na breeze dey blow us so.

This looks haphazard and Inshallah. What are the chances of Leipzig being able to afford Werner wages?

popizaino:
You never saw anything,if anything what you are seeing is definitely bullshit. Is it not you selling this mediocre chalobah as a good player ? That's beside the point.


At what age should Fabregas be throwing in tackles like a deranged fool when he is not a DMF? Fabregas has paid his dues,whoever started benching him yesterday today or forever will need a lifetime active football to match is records. Facts only.

Argue with Fabregas record. When your one eye only sees him throwing passes and fails to see the numerous times he can't keep the ball under pressure or can't follow a man, someone with two eyes will warn you that the road seems clear from your one eye but if you cross it, you will get jammed by a trailer.

Fabregas remains the only Chelsea midfielder to fail to qualify for UCL twice, was totally uncompetitive in UCL, was thrown away by those with two eyes like Conte, Sarri and several Monaco managers back to back in order to ensure their teams stay competitive after he dragged them down to levels unseen.

PSG transfer listed 11 players. It may interest Tuchel to look at Abdou Diallo and Thilo Kehrer than be disturbing Boehlys pocket upandan for mega millions on centrebacks.

Abdou Diallo has 2 years left on contract, is Koulibalys partner for Senegal and Edouard Mendy's best friend. He is also left footed and can play LCB and also LB

Thilo Kehrer has 1 year left on contract, and can play RCB and RB

Both are strong, quick, and a good upgrade and combined won't cost Boehly more than £40m. Tuchel should stop blowing Daddy Billy money in unnecessary positions for Yeomen and rest with these two signings.

EmmanuelScott1:
What's your say on Douglas Luiz as a DM.

Don't rate him. Even Nakamba improved Villas midfield last season when he returned from injury much more than Luiz. And I had Nakamba down as a flop from the season before

FBS:
I'm not sure you would recognise the essence and power of a creative player even if its right next to you. Your hatred is your problem.
Of what use is the base if you can't unlock your opponents defence and your strikers are not firing? Must you always depend on wing backs? or is this another cross and nod session? Did you forget that football is a team sport and every single player has a role to play?
We've been lacking in the attacking 3rd for 3 seasons straight. I will leave it to you to find out why.

Any kindergartener can see who makes the unlock pass but it takes footie knowledge to notice when such a player leaves so many gaps, they are practically a -1. And that's why the useless Fabregas got benched and sent to Timbuktu by every successive manager who agreed with what I saw.

Same reason why the KDB I warned as being a great player when Chelsea chased him away is a great player today. I'm sure you remember how Chelsea fans used to lambast me for maintaining that KDB is better than Hazard

If you only see from one eye, can never know how useless Fabregas was. I'm glad every manager agreed with me from Conte to Sarri to Monaco guys. The only player to fail to qualify Chelsea to UCL twice in Roman era as a starter. Spits.

Raheem Sterling to Thomas Tuchel in the table tennis room - "I promise you, no one here can beat me"

It's like these Jamaicans are like Nigerians that play table tennis and football a lot in childhood

BlueAngel444:
yes like you would have known Suarez would be great and that selling players like Salah and KDB while hiring Mourinho back would bite the club back


Who were the ones who wanted Emenalo sacked and celebrated it

You are always doing "had I known" just like with Bakayoko. Nobody who watched 2010 World Cup would sign that washed up Torres over Suarez

Man like Elon
