Drag am No pity am at all..

Tear all him cloth wen you dey drag am

iamoyindamola:
Drag am like tiger generator

I go too drag am ehh. Make the 6months elapse first

iamoyindamola:
Accept the L first speak later

leave am make him dey shalaye

Spy360:
The calmness Saliba brings to the defense is unseen. It also actually makes other defenders calm around him. If he can add voice to his game, he would be hugely exceptional.

I haven't watched him tho cos I don't watch preseason but the reviews I'm hearing about him ehh, e too positive. Plus Arteta to break that Gabriel-White pair to Gabriel-Saliba pairing in all our strong matches really sent a message.

Spy360:
You have to wait for exactly six months to issue me the L if not that would be considered breach of contract

But, he can still be better while on loan, or e nor follow?

"Give him six months and he'll join Saka in our first team"

The above quotes from you means loan or sell no follow at all. No worry, since you said your L taking will reach 6 months, I go drag you pass wetin I suppose drag you be that. So be expecting

mostob:
Inasmuch as Saliba is taking everything by storm, I think it is a bit unripe to just place him ahead of White. White is more important to our tactic and the way we play generally. Hopefully,we will get it right.
BTW, this will be a real headache for Arteta especially when Tomi is back

How do you know he's more important?

From reviews I've read, he's more aggressive,calm, have speed and he's hardly beaten by any attacker. Coupled with the fact that he has a good passing range like White too. If na you be the boss, who will you choose?

This season is one that Arteta would want to use his best team since the pressure is on and I won't be surprised it'll be Gabriel-Saliba pairing it'll be all season (all things being equal). Though sometimes we might switch to 3 at the back to accommodate White

MorataFC:
Chai, see how this one dey drag his team's best coach

I no drag am. I just need pointers to tell Man u fans say na Wenger be the best coach in England during his time

Spy360:
I wonder whether Arteta wants to play with two strikers this season. Nevertheless it will be a good opportunity for him. I like France, its a good league for youths.
Let's see how he will improve this season.

But he definitely has the skill set. Perhaps Arteta wants him to develop fully like Saliba

All these ones na another talk na wey we go discuss later

Are you taking your L on this or make e don first??

iamoyindamola:
See them celebrating
If na arsenal it's a friendly
Awon hypocrite werey

FirstbornWds:
Lol, you have way worse of those in your arsenal Chelsea. You parade Havertz, Pulisic, and Miss Werner in your attack, remember? Don't forget you just added another sitter misser... Raheem

Fixed.!!

I understand wetin you mean, but if you know, you know

Spy360:
You're too fast to conclude even though you were against Arsenal for keeping Saliba on loan for two years.

One year is enough for Balogun. That's what it takes to blow.

Good morning Sir Spy

Is the bolded a concession for your would-be L(attached is a screenshot) or should we wait for the L to done well well?

Capaldi:
What attacking midfielders does Conte and Klopp use in their respective midfield? Creativity comes from the wing backs and attackers in Tuchel current set up. We have useless attackers who cannot create, very inconsistent, cannot beat their player or even score goals.

You've a point here too.

kingBolton:
We will have to move away from the 3-4-3 formation. Few times we play other formations last season, we were are actually good. But I don't think tuchel trusts our current defensive mildfild options enough to go to a back 4

That's what I thought too and I felt that's what he'll work on this transfer window together with the attack but then...

FBS:
I'm probably the only one talking about this but its strange even others can see it but not the so called pundits and Chelsea faithfuls.
We struggle to create and score goals and unless our wingbacks are high up, mostly nothing dey happen.
We simply need someone to link our attack and the closest we have is Kovacic. I'd would very much like for Tuchel to reduce his defensive work and get someone else to partner slowJoghs.
I don't even care what formation, just get the team to create goals via multiple channels.

Exactly and I hardly see one. I think that's one of the big reasons why you guys hardly score goals through counter

Ellexy:
I mean this guy was balling in the Champions League against European finests

Tbh, I didn't notice him sha. Mostly because I didn't watch their games that season in UCL. The only person I noticed very well when I watched their game against Madrid was Tadic.

Roland17:
Why you dey help them identify and problem solve?

For all we know, plantain Boehly bole and Tuchel may be reading this thread

We need any competitive advantage we can get.

Lol... No worry comrade. I don seal my mouth henceforth

andrewbaba44:


Hensbrain sha ,very funny guy

Lol. Very funny somebody

Ellexy:
Boggles the mind how he was performing at a high level in Ajax but can't seem to do the basics here.

Lol, maybe his confidence have waned. Maybe he's not used to the type of fastness EPL is known for, so he'll need to adjust his game..
But one thing I know for sure, Dutch league is somehow a poor league compared to EPL esp the intensity..

Vdb will need to adjust his game sha to have any hope

Leyqute:
Lol.

I was referring to 2011 Barcelona.

And the 2009 Barca you guys were touting as weak spent most of their time on the table in the second position.

After this, they reached the semi final of the UEFA champions league (defeated by Man Utd) and the semi final of the Copa Del Rey (Defeated by Valencia).

Is that the weak team that someone fine tuned and turned into an unbeatable team?

Even if you agree with that last controversial bit, is it the same thing as winning the UCL wirh Porto?

They lost Dinho, Deco, van bommel, Marquez. This are core players and are people off head I can remember. Messi was also injury prone (just like Fati presently).

Then you talk about a coach who hasn't any experience even as an assistant coach to pilot that same team to a treble the very next season. Haba, na!!!

It's just like saying Xavi won a treble last season with Barca after losing Messi and we'll start hearing "afterall they finished 3rd the previous season and won a Copa del Rey"

kingBolton:
Gabriel Jesus is a striker that will thrive in our current set up, Chelsea needs a striker that can drag defenders out wide, come deep to collect the ball and link our attacks. This is something Gabriel Jesus is very good at because of his high technical ability. In our match against udinese, tuchel used sterling to try to do this. The traditional striker is fading away in football now.

Zinchenko is better than both Emerson and Alonso, and will do well in our set up. During our best run last season, we played with inverted wing backs( Chilwell and James ) and we saw the drop in quality when Chilwell got injured.

I might be wrong but another thing you guys lack is a creative Am. You guys really need one badly

FirstbornWds:
Na recency bias day worry all of them. Them day forget say na Pep revamp Barca to become wetin e become.

Lol... Dem still dey look the Barca of 2009 with 2006 eyes

Ellexy:
Please any DVD apologists still in the house?

All Dvd apologist have been converted to Eriksen apologists

Dem decamp the way PDP being decamp to APC

Leyqute:
So, in your head winning UCL wirh prime Barcelona and underdogs like Porto is the same thing?

Odiegwu.

And if you hold this fallacious belief, why first talk about SAF?

You don chop L like 3 different occasions now. It’s better to keep quiet on this matter and stop disgracing your clan.

Lol, this is one big misconception I don't understand sha. How people still thought that 2009 treble winning Barca was a prime one. .

The coach..... Rookie
Squad ... Not prime
This is a squad that narrowly finished in top 4 the previous season while most of the key players were gone including the oracle Dinho

Guardiola deserves all the hype and credit for the achievements he did that year even overcoming real Madrid Galaticos along the way

kingBolton:
Gabriel Jesus, positionless?
Sure you have watched him?
And what are you on about tuchel playing him as a left back?
If you have watched Chelsea under tuchel and how he likes his strikers to be involved in the game and not just camp in the box, then you won't write what you wrote up there.

You guys really needed a Jesus and Zinchenko sha as they'll be massive upgrade to your team but even some of your fans here think your players are very very much better than them

I mean, one here says Emerson is better than Zinchenko while Gabriel Jesus wouldn't want to drag the CF spot with generational talent

CAPdan21:
Suffer never tire u...U get havertz you dey find G.jesus the positionless player, when tuchel go start to play am as left back you go hear say him play lb for youth team before...
CC: Jod.era

Lol... Make dem leave my positionless striker G.Jesus and positionless defender Zinchenko alone ooo

CAPdan21:
Jump off the bus....even if person wey set the criteria come beg us say na drunkenness induced criteria we nor go still gree...

CAPdan21:
Omoh this your point nor bad Sha but you dey follow the wrong criteria...the only rule accepted on this board na
1CL>>>>>>>1 million league titles
Nor dey blaspheme against doctrine of apari...

.

So make I disembark be that na

hensben:
I don’t use nostalgia mentality when saying things that are fact.
Klopp won epl and ucl already when will pep win ucl for city. Klopp lost epl the last day, went to ucl final and won two domestic trophies.

Oh, okay. According to your pix, the ranking changes every season abi?

So year season you want to tell me that the best coach was Pep? No?

hensben:
If you don’t know that Klopp is the best coach in England then you must be deluded.

Two coaches manages the two best club In England at the same time

Coach A wins 4 titles in 6 seasons
Coach B wins 1 title in 6 seasons

But somehow, we are to believe that coach B is better than coach A in England?



I need to employ you abeg. I go need you make we go Man u thread tell them say Wenger is the best coach in England over SAF during their time. I believe say anything wey you wan use defend klopp suppose dey valid for Wenger

Leyqute:
Not really.

The only reason you didn’t hear pim was because it’s an established fact that he’s buying the league.

Pep won the league- without using his most expensive signing. It only means that he’s got a really robust team of fantastic players.

And spending that much money on someone who won’t feature prominently in your plan looks bad on you.

Imagine if it was Klopp who bought a 100m well sought after player last season and didn’t win the league nor achieve anything tangible.

The drag no go be for here.

Lol... You have a valid point about him having a robust Squad sha, but another thing is that he shuts all these press/journalist down with results.

Same thing with klopp. If he(Pep) wasn't dominating league, question will surely be asked why grealish is bought with such amount if he can't be used always. Even Saf enjoyed such privilege if I'm not mistaken and he didn't buy the league with Money. Na success be the koko
