Disgaree with this. Kyle Walker was twice in the PFA team of the year. This clearly shows He was the Best RB in the league at some point.

well CAHILK and LUIZ have also appeared in pfa team of the year more than once and i dont remember any of them being that good in defence

atheist5:
did you predict a Chelsea that finish 10th would win the league that season regardless of European football?just two out of 40 pundits tipped Chelsea for the title that season

it was commendable but nothing new


did you predict a that a relegation threatened leciester that finished 14th with a -9 goal difference would win the league but does it change the fact that raniere is now in nantes

like i said ealier chelsea,city and united are top epl clubs and all are in europe this season so i will compare by the end of the season

dopeJemi:
Pep will stroll to the league title if he had just the EPL to contest for

even raniere won the league with 10 points without ucl and when he started playing in ucl he became nantes coach

a club of chelsea's stature and quality focusing on the league should be better placed in the league than other title contenders with european commitment.innasmuch as i give him credit,i see nothing extraodinary in what he did since raniere did the same with a significantly less talented squad

so i will start my comparism this season that the playing ground is level

VargasVee:
He's a top coach no doubt, but he's not the only Manager to have turned things around.

Then again he has funds at disposal to sign whatever player he wants.

Well every top manager has turned things around at some point

every top coach in epl has funds to buy the players they want whether the player or their club agrees is another thing

lemar refused to play for wenger even after monaco agreed to sell for £90M

lukaku

danilo

laurente

chamberlain

sandro

ross barkley

van dyjk

all refused to play for conte and chelsea and money was never the issue on any of these cases

so there is no such thing as lack of funds just that almost every footballer dead or alive will chose pep over conte...he is that good

VargasVee:
He has the most expensive starting line up and Most expensive bench

What are you on about?

well to put that into perspective

chelsea squad is more expensive than .........

barca

real madrid

bayern munich


juventus

ROMA

etc

so you see it is not always about money and prior to last summer,i believe man u had the most expensive squad but were still playing shit so give honour to whom honour is due
pep is the best tactician in the league

atheist5:
luiz is not a starter,na was for you oh,of course pep is superior to conte am just saying pep will not outperform him in a less talented squad, Bernardo Silva a bench player for city will start at chelsea

in a mourinho setup.....
ederson,stones,kompany,otamendi,fenandiho,fabian delph,sterling even jesus will most likely not be starters
and mourinho might even bench one of kdb or silva for pogba

and some of them will still be bench players at chelsea so it comes down to choice and tactics


and saying pep will not perform with this chelsea squad and that conte will overperform with city squad is based on assumptions and no tangible conclusion can be reached on assumptions (raniere could not win the league with a talented chelsea side but he did it with leicester) ...so i rather stick with the obvious which is that pep,conte and mou all spent Lots of money and built their team in their image and at the moment pep is better than both of them.

atheist5:
conte and mourihno will still win trophies with this city squad but it wont be this flashy,am not talking about first 11,name a squad in england better than city?
Learn chelsea politics,our coach is give zero freedom in transfer issues,mourihno and pep on the other hand

first of all david luiz is a starter just injured(knee inflamation)..rudiger is conte's choice whether he is starting or not is not the point(what of the other cfc players i named) same way bernado and danilo are always on the bench

and the fact that danilo rejected conte to play for pep atest to his superiority

and it is not politics that made lukaku,danilo,sandro,van dijk,ross barkley,chamberlain pass up the chance to play for conte

kante MIGHT be better than fenandiho but not to someone like pep whose ideal DM is someone like busquets

i repeat pep is making the most out of ederson, jesus,sane,delph,fenandiho,kdb even sterling it does not mean he has the best squad

atheist5:
pep is a great coach no doubt but I have noticed that he doesn't "dominate" a league without having the best squad in the land,

money was made available to other coaches as well and they chose to buy shiit how is that peps fault

every coach is responsible for assembling a team that suit his philosophy

give conte and mourinho this city squad and they will still not utilise their capability effectively

we all know jose will always choose lukaku over jesus,matic over fenandiho,rashford over sterling,pogba over kdb and silva,baily over ottamendi or injury kompany

and if pep is given the opportuinity he will never by bakayoko,batshuayi,zapacosta,matic etc

conte will always choose to go for courtois over ederson ,kante azpi,hazard,rudiger,luis,morata over dia city counterparts

so is not dat pep has the best squad in the land cos he doesn't

but he has assembled a team that buys into his ideas.Same as other coaches just with less efficiency

pep is good

Yahoo1:
i agree with all part of the post except the part where Dybala is better than Hazard bro. He'll probably be better than Hazard eventually but right now Hazards performance is not all about goals though he needs those to put himself in a better position. It's just like we tell people here,Remove Messis goals and you will still see the best player in the world...i should think the same applies to Hazard except the goals part(not trying to compare Hazard to Messi,far from it.)



p.s : sad losing Alcacer veey early in the Match....making do with Deulofeu in the Clasico sucks.

well i get your point

and it is not like paco would have featured cause EV would most likely go with 4-4-2 since it is away to RM

let just get this clasico over with so we can start next year with dembouz,rafinha,mascherano and umtiti

Yahoo1:
Dybala better than Hazard? Hazard is better than Dybala. The only thing Hazard has failed to do is add more goals to his outputs.


Nawa for una o.

i enjoy watching hazard,he is a wretched man's rightfooted messi(without the plenty goals and assist)

but inconsistency is his biggest issue and the mark of greatness is being able to reach the top and stay there.......

Hazard will be 27 in few weeks time and he is still mostly reffered to as having potentials to be a world beater (is just that he needs to add this and that to his game)

i dont really know hazard's role in chelsea if it is to get goals and assisted then he is not exceptional at it

but if it is to drible and put on a show then he is doing great

dyabala might not be better than hazard but he is definitely not worse everything considered.
We are still waiting for hazard to up his output


i still think dyabala is better


my 2 cents though.

jpmoriarti:
Griezmann is not a top 9. He's not to be a replacement for Suarez. He'll compliment our attack.

well,griezman can play as an inverted winger having played wide in his real sociedad days and with dembouz on the left wing...Messi can go back to being a false 9

suarez can be a super sub if he wishes or he can simply fvck off

snowstormm:
hazard and dybala comparison is debatable...but someone said dybala is among top6 players in the world,that is why I disagreed with then


And dybala isn't that young...neymar is 25,hazard is 26years soon to be 27 and dybala is 24

i never said he is too young but he is younger than the aforementioned two

neymar is almost 26 and hazard is almost 27 and dyabala just turned 24 and...2 to 3 years in football is alot


i just think dyabala is more productive than hazard,hence better.

snowstormm:
Just a reminder for some people who said dybala is among the top 6 players in the world and how is he is better than neymar,hazard and co....your nigga is now choping bench in juve and am sure he hasn't scored more than 3 goals in his last 10 matches


Dybala is an overhyped player

everybody knows neymar is better than dyabala but hazard is definitely not better IMO

the only thing hazard got on dyabala is age

hensben:
Who is John Stone? It’s just like me saying drinkwater was injured. Chelsea lost Hazard and Kante to injury these are key players to the team. Let man city lost either De Bruyne or Fernandinho to injury then you will understand what I mean by key players.

john stones is a starter at city...You should compare drinkwater to gundogan

and dont forget Aguero, mendy and kompany all starters

atheist5:
I don't consider his time in Bayern as a success,if he could not win the champions league with that Bayern squad then he should f*ck off

well moaninghoe could not win ucl with mighty madrid and he also could not do it with chelsea in two spell inspite of player quality and finances at his disposal

and conte?...I'm not even sure if he has made it past the QF stage before

so by your definition moaninghoe was a failure throughout his time at chelsea and madrid

and conte has been a failure ......all his life and is still a failure

airmark:
One manager had a rift with his club management as regards transfers, and missed out on a number of targets. The other one was on an unhindered spending spree, with no issue with his management on transfers.

it is double standard to say that £217.3M is an unhindered spending spree but £202M is not ..Just 15.3M difference not much IMO

and it is not like one did not miss out on top targets like dani alves,alexis sanchez ,even bonucci

and conte having issues with management after spending almost the same as city makes me wonder how much he wanted to spend £1billion perharps

since you guys are implying that pep is buying 1st position, i also expect conte to buy 2nd position now that chelsea is playing in UCL if he fails to do that then he is a fraud or at best raniere2.0 and should be shipped to OGC NICE

and by the way,your coach is a champions league fraud i sugest you guys ditch him before it is too late.

peace

hensben:
Couple of injuries to key players affected Chelsea season unlike man city. Conte enjoyed injury free last season

please i would really love to know all the key players that were injured

airmark:
Only that one achieved that in his first attempt.

I love pep's team, another confirmation that money can buy love.

and the one that achieved that in his first season was not playing in europe same as claudio raniere,we all know what happened to leciester city when they started playing in europe .

and chelsea also spent lots of LEAVES in the summer yet most chelsea fans are not happy with their position and performance in the league this season

dont you think it is another confirmation that money cant realy buy happiness ?

pamcode:
He took him a season to understand the EPL true but we saw how he settled quicker in the other leagues winning them in his first season.

And bro am not surprised to see you dashing out Ls after all you are the L-Ohim of this section. Otunba Copy and Paste.

FUNKE!!!!!!!!!!

guy why na,
which one is L-SHADAI and L-OHIM??

someone cannot play with you again??

lana1:
U must be the stupíd one if u think i was one of those who ever said "If he knew the squad was not good why did he not change the players" coz i dont understand why u would generalise

Mehn miss me with the búllshit motherfucker and stop throwing subtle shots my way if cant argue with sense

you've been typing stupid sh1t all day and every one is trying to tolerate your stupidity yet when someone takes his time make a logical case you take to insults because you have nothing reasonable to counter with

f*ck off this thread if you have nothing sensible to say

if you are looking for a platform to advertise your stupidity then contact seun osewa because you are not useful here

and according to your stupid logic conte and chelsea spent the 2nd highest amount in the league so why is he not 2nd in the league now he is in european competition

SMH

when you think you have seen it all

well i guess is endtime stupidity

dmcdad:
Guy you dey fall your hand walai... You get sense pass like this na... I just dey read your lines of argument and honestly, they're whacked.

I dey tell you

KingTom:
I swear that EPL no be league, yeye teams full there, see how La Liga boys carry them shine. Real Madrid spank Tottenham 10-0 even Atletico use Chelsea clean yansh. Nonsense EPL

so because shakter donesk won napoli it means ukranian league is better than italian league abi


why dont you post where roma trashed the epl champions or where basel won united

ogbeni if you want to compare leagues why dont you check who wins the most CONTINENTAL AND INTERNATIONAL TROPHIES

like UCL

CLUB WORLD CUP and

European super cup


u can also check where the best players are and where the best players of each league usually move to.

tesppidd:
lol. why not 3 months? i just want to know how you came about the 4 months duration. why not 3 months or 5 months? i just wanna know.

DEMBOUZ

which kain foolishness una dey display for this thread .I dont undestand how people would want footballers and their families involved in a fatal plane crash and another hoping that someone he has not met before does not make it in life just because of a mere football match

immature kids that do not understand the santity of life and the pain death bring both to the dying ones and the living.

SMH

i dont fancy tapnaldo at all but the WORST thing i can wish him is 4 month hamstring injury,
i wouldn't even want $nakemar injured.

there is more to life than football and STUPID COMENTS.

Criis:
^ Can this guy just stfu already?

just ignore him,every sensible person does

kelvinze:
As in with the way things are going plus this is Epl

kushercain:
don't forget your table manners when you eat your words

no sh1t bro,i aint going nowhere

BlueAngel444:
Yap, the two major trophies are what's important, League title and UCL, this season any team that wins any other nonsense are deceiving themselves as to what a successful season is.

What's your club?

FC BARCELONA

city wining the league

fcb knocking you out of R16

so trophyless season becoming more and more likely.

cheers mate.

KinzyeWriter:
Bro, another troll is waiting for Messi if neymar wins bdor, if you know that I mean.

billions more will be waiting if tapnaldo wins it again so neymar anyday
