pamcode:The manager getting one signing does not mean he should be satisfied. There may be 3 or 4 other positions where they asked him to make do with scraps, besides Morata was a young boy you might want for squad position knowing you have Mandzukic to carry the main load. Conte did not get a single first choice signing at Chelsea except Kante. City fans like to bark on about Pep spending was to replace Sagna, Clichy, Zabaleta as if Chelsea did not need to replace Terry, Ivanovic, Cahill and even Baba Rahman in the last 3 years. You ask for Alex Sandro, VVD and Walker to replace them, ask you to manage Alonso, Luiz, Zappacosta. Despite this you still won the league yet they keep giving you scraps. Take City net spend of £380m and Chelsea net spend of £210 and tell me whether the difference is not money talking that would get you VVD, Walker, Alex Sandro. Now imagine that £60m of Chelseas £210m net spend is for Pulisic who will only play next season, and that money will be offset by selling your top talent Hazard bringing your net spend down to around £130m vs City £380m. Who said the difference is not money, when that difference will allow you to point and kill everywhere with VVD, Sandro, Walker and co. |
raumdeuter:Temporary alliance cos Emenalo was playing power politics with Marina and looking for allies. More a case of the enemy of my enemy is my friend - which also made Emenalos position untenable. |
thorrvik55:I would say the man has delivered on expectations and should be kept, but apparently the board say he is powerless in the dressing room since that Kepa incident hence they want a change, and the opportunity to earn some money from other clubs for him. Overall though, I'm not convinced he is capable of blending in the youth given his track record of only coaching and using the same 11 players so he might not be the man needed for transfer ban season. |
larride, that your guy has rounded up his Accounting degree with Oxford Brookes via ACCA route
|
thorrvik55:They won't sack him. They'll tell him he can leave if another club are willing to buy out his contract. I heard talk of $15m which is about what we paid Napoli for him. He did not come to us on free transfer, so we can't let him go on free transfer |
raumdeuter:If he wants he can be janitor as long as his friends are CEO and Technical director
|
On the argument of Chelsea managers input into signings, lets make no mistake, Chelsea removed the position of manager after Mourinho left. Chelsea only appoint first team coach not manager. Conte was the first time we appointed a first team coach. The first team coach is expected to have limited role in signings - although the board will grant him some signings. The reason they gave for downgrading the position is because they want the manager to be less involved in transfers. All Chelsea fans know Chelsea board approach. They want to make the signings and throw the manager a few crumbs. Even as of yesterday we were linked with Javi Gracia for the reason "he is a manager who gets on with his job without asking for signings". That is even the same reason they gave for appointing Sarri. Chelsea fans know all of these and try to follow the news on who signed who - whether its a manager signing or club signing eg Sarri says he knew nothing about Pulisic signing but we know Sarri definitely signed Jorginho. This is why Conte came out in press conference and said he knows nothing about signings.

Pojomojo:Teams actually want Sarri like Roma, Inter, Juve possibly. Our next season manager should be someone that is ready to blend the youth due to transfer ban. Sarris historical record is using just 12 or 13 senior players to prosecute his season. I don't see Sarri being the best fit for a season in the wilderness, rather what you will see is contract extensions for deadwood like Luiz, Willian etc that we will find hard to shift later. That is happening already. |
lalaboi:No we can't loan new players. The ban says we cannot register new players. Higuain and Kovacic are already registered to us and don't need new registration. So we can sign them both, but why would we want to sign Higuain? Kovacic will definitely join permanently as long as Madrid don't Jack up the price knowing our desperate situation. |
gustav25:After the tikitaka, play the blues/ (the blues, the blues) We been dey laugh as Pep dey lose/ (dey lose, dey lose) Now him dey win, we no confuse/ (confuse, confuse) Na Sheikh money wey him dey use/ (dey use, dey use) Wetin we talk don comfam/ (confam, comfam) Without money, Pep na scam/ (na scam, na scam) Until him players dem better/ (better, better) Dem go dey chop am like ekpa/ (ekpa, ekpa) Local sturvs no consign us/ (sign us, sign us) For UCL, na still minus/ (minus, minus) Leave local tinz for Conte dem/ (Tay dem, Tay dem) Na wetin Apari dey yern/ (dey yern, dey yern) . |
raumdeuter:We said Pep will struggle while the playing field is more even and only start making noise after the Sheik has turned City into the PSG of EPL and that's exactly what happened. |
raumdeuter:Mourinho is hailed for what he did at Porto and Inter not what he did at Chelsea which is the expected. Pep has always delivered the expected and disgraced himself when playing field is not in his favour. |
raumdeuter:We celebrate the unexpected on Nairaland, not the expected. Every anti-Pep member has said that Pep would win when enough money is thrown at his project. You have taken so many Ls this season, you want to force W where there is none. |
raumdeuter:No we spent pages saying Pep cannot do it with equal teams or lesser. It's only when he has better teams that he becomes "a genius." That was proven at Bayern in UCL, and proven in first season, and now proven subsequently when he was allowed to spend his way to a better team. Stop flooding this thread with the same nonsense everyday for local competitions best left for Ranieri and Conte. I am warning you to let people discuss their club on here, and don't become a daily nuisance, otherwise we will take action |
chelseabmw:Oga please close the thread or ban Raumdeuter for few weeks. How many pages must we scroll through to read the same arguments |
ManBeast:Dayo is becoming a real nuisance on this forum and ruining the Nairaland experience for those who want to catch up on their team. ChelseaBMW please take note. How will an old man be arguing the same peurile and asinine points everyday for hours on end. Today it's one thing, tomorrow it's when did someone win a league with 2 CL finalists. I'm getting headache clicking on this thread these days. Handshake has passed elbow oh. You guys should caution Dayo to respect his age. If it will take Airmark to post his father and mother picture to get him banned for a few weeks to allow this thread breathe like last time, I'm in support of it. |
raumdeuter:They will give him special Premier league trophy for winning EPL during season when 2 EPL teams made UCL final. Anumanu. |
Eruditor:No. It's stupid. |
Eruditor:Isn't that a stupid question to ask? How often do we have 2 finalists from the same league? |
raumdeuter:Are you dumb or forgetful? Fergie won the league in 2007 when Liverpool were in CL final Also in 2008 when Chelsea were in UCL final. |
Melvyn11:So the entire City was not built around Keke na Pep. To where his friends Bergiristan and Soriano were poached 2 years before him to run the club in anticipation of his joining |
airmark:Meaning Giroud and Tammy next year with Michy sold |
popizaino:Only you would remember such nonsense as you are a Barca fan. |
raumdeuter:No, Messi did, and gave to Pep at the same time. |
Emaprince:You have said it all. Goodnight. |
raumdeuter:Mourinho has given CL to Benni McCarthy, Goran Pandev, Carlos Alberto, Alenichev, Cambiasso, Walter Samuel and co. He has even given Europa league to Porto which is a great achievement for them. When will Pep give anyone UCL rather than just receiving from Messi like Luis Enrique did. |
TLona1:Pep destroyed them. Before Pep, they reached 3 UCL finals in 4 years. Pep came in and wasted their golden generation that won World Cup, never reaching UCL final again. |
raumdeuter:Cancer patient won LaLiga with Barca from New York hospital bed. How is that an achievement? Since Mourinho left, Madrid only won LaLiga once in 6 years, to show you that Messi gifts LaLiga title to any Barca manager, even those on deathbed, and those that can lose 3 goal deficit in UCL twice in a row. |
TLona1:And exactly 1 year later, Pep took Bayern team that had beat Barca 7-0 the previous year and lost disgracefully by 3-0 to the same Barca. Then repeated 5 goal disgrace against Madrid. |
raumdeuter:What Fergie did with Blomqvist, Solskjaer and Sheringham, Pep find impossible without Messi. |
