if you understood Tuchel's tactics this post would have been worded differently.


Besides a 3-4-3 can turn to a 4-3-3 with one defender moving to DM or CM position. or become 3-5-2 or 4-4-2 with an attacking midfielder dropping to midfield, or a 3-2-4-1 with the wing backs as actually wingers, now if you had such flexibility would you change it?
I wonder why he didn't need all this in PSG or Dortmund. Maybe because he had DM that can do the job.

the club can easily look for a DM. To replace jorginho yet they are going for cm
That means they have accepted protecting him all season without the flexibility to go on the front foot consistently

And you think if getting a proper DM will make Tuchel play his preferred tactics instead of "accommodating a liability", we wouldn't have signed a DM since?

We badly needed a focal point man, we wasted no time in landing Lukaku. Don't you think that if Jorginho was spoiling Tuchel's tactics, we wouldn't have made DM a top priority in the market?
Has Tuchel played this formation consistently before?

This formation was only for one reason - lack of a functional DM, so required another defender to cover the runs from midfield.

Tuchel could sneak through tournament football but we haven't forgotten how Aston Villa, West Brom, Leicester, West Ham and co were peppering us and dominating us too regularly for our liking.

First priority is striker, that's a £100m spend. We can manage the system for now to prioritise a striker signing.

Protecting a liability and benching him, which one is easier?
Chelsea does not have another specialist DM except him. Kante maybe but he is too useful in the CM.

It's obvious jorginho wasnt even among best 6 at Chelsea cus I will still put kante among those 5 you mentioned but someone people thinks jorginho is worthy enough for the Men's player of the year award for reason best known to them alone .
Last season Mount, Kante and Mendy were miles ahead of Jorgiboy without question and Azpi, Silva, Rudiger arguably so. Others would be ahead of him if not for injuries or changes of system.

Lampard first full season, every starting player was ahead of Jorginho except Kepa and Rudiger

Sarri season, again Hazard, Willian, Kante, Kovacic, Azpi were undoubtedly ahead and he was one of the worst players.

I don't mind celebrating any Chelsea player winning laurels but not one I consider detrimental to the future of my team

When Mikel won UCL and deservedly so being one of our best players in that UCL, Chelsea gave him 5 year contract knowing he can't form base for an attacking team. He spent the next 5 years clogging our bench.

What Jorginho did in UCL is not even half of what Mikel did in 2012 UCL sef.

if Jorginho is not important they can simply bench him. And use kovacic and kante..

Chelsea will sign Saul yet Jorginho will be priority in mildfield
Kovacic is not a DM and neither really is Kante who is too important in CM

Who want lie to themselves should keep lying to themselves that Jorginho improved.

If you ask what aspect of his game improved, they will start stuttering.

Nothing improved in his game, they just found a deep lying system where he doesn't have to chase opposition. We can only get so far doing that. Nigga is just lucky to be part of Kante and Donnarumas world in the same season they carried their teams to trophies.

I stand my ground that Jorginho is the same player. Same way Sarri parked bus to draw 0-0 with Man City in Carabao Cup final, the week after getting hammered 6-0 by the same Man City when he tried to play an attacking set-up with the same Jorginho.

Jorginho hasn't improved one iota. Infact his passing game disappeared in order for us to park the bus to protect him.

The season is long and demands consistency, not bus parking, and those weaknesses will be called out as we go along. We die here.

Walahi juju is real,let's assume in a school of about 120 students in jss2 with 40 students in each arm of jss2 A, jss2 B, Jss3 C, jss 2 D. [/b]Take jorginho to be in [b]jss2 D. He came 6th position among the 40 students in his own class and when it was time to compute the overall result the 6th position from jss2 D became the 1st overall among the 120 students. Tell me no be juju be that?
You hit the nail on the head buddy

Nobody can place Jorginho in the top 5 players in Chelsea throughout his spell, so supporting him to win UEFA best is a no-no.

What you will have is a carryalong commanding prestige and wages and continuing to fit the team to his pattern of play going forward when actually that's a position we should be looking to upgrade to be consistently successful.

I don't know whether your tactical preference when it comes to Jorginho is better than seasoned coaches who saw it fit "to protect him" just to make sure he is in the pitch. Multiple coaches at that.

Ibime you fall hand here big time.
Consistency in the league will prove whether protecting him by parking bus works consistently. Anyone can park bus to win a tournament with specific preparation and tactical instructions, but parking bus to win 30 out of 38 games is a different kettle of fish.

So far as I see, no Chelsea manager has had a different profile of DM to work with so of course they will do what they have to do with what's available.

Boss, you're really, really intelligent, and I value your opinions, and I won't presume to tell you what to do, but I just think you should pick Another hill to die on.
You tend to do this thing where you totally write off some players no matter how good they can be in spades. No matter whether there's improvement from when you first formed your opinion. No matter the strengths they have that make coaches select them. See for example your constant denigration of Ramires and Mikel.
Anyways it's a win for Chelsea if he wins. You should see it as such.
What happened to Mikel and Ramires? Did they go on to build the future of Chelsea or lead us into disasters and had to be replaced.

I don't like snail DMs. You will never get me to like snail DMs. That's like asking Mourinho to play without a big target man at no9. Everyone has their tactical preference, it's not matter of intelligence.

Jogginghoe will come back to haunt and I will be here to dig him out like I did with Mikel and Ramires. Mind you I only started digging.Mikel in 2012 AFTER the UCL final so it's not like I was digging Mikel and he proved me wrong. He proved me right infact. I was OK with Mikel when Chelsea played low block but not after we bought MaZaCar to play high block. This is not matter of accepting L. A weakness is a weakness and a tactical preference is a tactical preference. If you like parking bus to protect a snail that's up to you. I don't.

Na wa o...our own is about to win the UEFA Men's Player of the Season - the first time, too - yet we can't even be supportive. It's his own fans that are nitpicking errors and flaws in his game, not even rival fans again.

It be your own people sometimes.

Well Jorginho will win the award, and it will choke cheesy
You are looking at award and bragging rights, I am looking at the future of the club. An award for an undeserving player who is not top 5 in Chelsea players in any season he has played only comes with future traps - him getting a long term contract at a salary befitting of a UEFA Men's POTY etc, carrying a liability forward that you have to live with for the next few years and cannot shift easily to another club, just because he had a lucky summer.

So nobody to reply this even with the people i mentioned sad
People don't reply specifically to such open requests because if BTC tank and the coin tanks, people blame the person that quoted them.

We are dropping our moves here daily and rationale behind them, it's up to you to follow the rationale and pick the coin if you agree. There is no hand holding in crypto.

If I say I'm looking at a coin, all I'm looking at is probability. I may allocate 1 or 2% of my portfolio to that coin if it's a small cap or a risky pick, and cut my position within minutes if it breaches certain levels whereas someone just copying could put half their money in there, HODL and get burned. So there is no hand holding in crypto.

Nothing like "half his fans". It is a minority. An inconsequential minority. No player is ever loved 100 percent by the fans. Eg, go to barcas thread last season and see some of them complaining about Messi, saying their football was now entirely about Messi and wishing he left for their tiki taka to continue. Some even hated that the entire club bowed to Messi.
No matter how good or bad a player is, some fans will always fault and hate some of their players.
Havertz has his doubters,rudiger has his doubters,mount has his doubters,likewise kovacic, likewise Silva, Christensen, chillwell, azpi, pulisic etc.
Every single player have a section of fans unsatisfied with aspects of them and keep wishing for ultimate perfection. It is down to the wise ones to acknowledge and celebrate when any of the players have certainly improved tremendously.
You can not rubbish a reputable international award because a player you don't like has won it. You are no better than reputable footballers, journalists and panel of judges that award this.
Celebrate your own.

Jorginho is now loved more and accepted by a vast majority of the club fans who will always celebrate our players successes. Moreso,our vice captain.
For the main time, happily collect the wonderful L jorginho has served you. LLLibime. grin grin
Just lucky to get his arse saved by Kante in UCL and Donnaruma in Euros

How do you check volume ? Or rather what indices do you use to assess volume?
Just select volume on Binance

I always keep it on 15 mins on top gainers and if I see massive volume with a pump, I then check 5 mins, then 1 min to ensure it was not a flash pump.

It's not a trading strategy I use much but sometimes when I'm feeling frisky, I will throw in like 2% of my portfolio on something moving rapidly

I picked up ATA when I saw this volume spike at 1.20, before my order filled, it has already run to 1.25
