Surprising Luke Shaw didn't attempt a right footer from there.

Leyqute:
England suffocated.

Southgate should've started at least one or two attackers that run in behind. He hasn't done that since the start of the tournament, so...

Gordon for Shaw. Saka at LB.

England can't even keep the ball. Nawa.

Joezinho:
Spain for the win.

That's all the world needs rn..

Because?

We have waited a long time for this. Spain can win the next one. Football's coming home this time.

Ballzproblem2:
Liverpool are closing in on deal to sign Rio Ngumoha (2008) as he’s leaving Chelsea Academy.

Liverpool are set to break historical wage structure for Academy to sign Rio.

~ @FabrizioRomano

Chelsea wants him to sign new contract so them go use as pure profit, I'm glad he didn't, good luck.

And this is what will happen eventually with all this pure profit nonsense currently going on. One day, there will be no quality left to sell for pure profit.

Italy really poor

Gucciboy:

1st - duels won (67)
1st - fouls suffered (17)

In how many games? Just like Afrodoc earlier, for a guy hyped on Neymar level talent, 33 dribbles completed even in 10 games, will be an average of 3 per game.

That's a paltry average.

Ballzproblemm:
they doing well but na the coaching department them dey gba

They've made a few terrible decisions but let's wait and see with the new man.

Ballzproblemm:
JUST IN: Marc Guiu is about to leave Barcelona to join Chelsea. Advanced between player and Chelsea. Chelsea will pay the 6m clause. (@gerardromero) #CFC


wow this came out of nowhere

Yes please. Yes please. This is the profile of young players we should be signing. Got the my eye on this one.

With all these talents we picking left right and centre, it might take a little while for it to come together, but we are on the verge on something really remarkable.

The new owners are doing very well in my opinion.

raumdeuter:
What could be wrong with him? Are you thinking what I am thinking? Has someone on this board recently hyped him?

Am I thinking what you are thinking? Surely there can't be something wrong with THAT GUY.

andrewbaba44:
You saw that he is being played out of position ,but continue

Southgate should get his formations right

Against Denmark almost none of the guys where outstanding

How's he going to do that? He's tactically inept.

Bluelines69:
He’s hot now, don’t know if he’d be interested in our project as he’d have more safer options….his clause is just 58m euros

That release clause is going north now after he signs a new contract. We should have signed him up when we had a chance.

Cucu.

See Italy. Back to keeper from direct free kick.

Unlimited22:
Inverting into midfield sef

Inverter General. The guy sabi the role well.

See as Nico bring ball down.

Italy is just flat out inferior to Spain. It's a surprise It's still only 1-0.

Own goal.

Grown men these days dey wear pink boots.

drisham:
Southgate bringing bowen ahead of Palmer


Dem no rate my boy Shaa😔🥲

The guy dey substitute based on seniority.

Shocking display. Rubbish Manager.

Rice looks a shadow of himself.

Average Manager. See how this guy just dey vex me. A team full of talented players just dey do nonsense like this.

Anyways, I no dey always expect anything with Southgate in charge.

andrewbaba44:
50M for a player with 9 senior career goals and these fools are rejecting ?

Chai

Is this the Omo oro Saamu that Airmark was asking me about? Who be the guy? When did we bid three times for this dude?

airmark:
@Nateevs, what do you think about Samu Omorodion sir?

Tani Samu Omo oro?

Never heard of him.

Capaldi:
It's a shame Gundogan won't get the reputation and hype his talent level and performance deserves. He can literally play anywhere in that midfield and drop 7/10 on an average day.

Aswerigad. One of my favourites of all times.

What a game!

Vischy:
Check conversion rate ,tells you he will score more in this Chelsea team

It doesn't. If he's too slow and weak for the PL, he will not. He will not be the first guy who scores bucket loads in weak leagues, then lands in the PL with the promise of coverting all the chances created by the superior team, and said striker is found wanting.

A 27 year old who's never played at the pace of the PL, chances are he burns out in 15 games.

airmark:
In lesser number of minutes played, compared to our wasteful Jackson. The gap in conversion rate is enough to flog Jackson out for him.

Sir... This ninjah is 27 in a few days. He's 5 years ahead in his career. Jackson is still an U23. If the dude's conversion rate is not higher than Jackson's, there's a big problem. There is no prize for that.

By the way, in the 3 previous seasons, this ninjah averaged 14 goals per season.

JAMB. How many of those were penalties?

BlueAngel444:
£100m transfer budget

Olise £60
Duran £40m

or should Chelsea buy a CF that's worth £70m and CB to solidify the defence?

The former...... on the basis that there's no proper CF on the market for £70m. You would have to shell out more.

Also, the former guarantees you better squad. There's no need for a new CB, unless on a one-in, one-out basis. We have enough cover.

airmark:
Vischy will like this.

Hehehe. So all the noise about this ninjah.... he scored only 17 non-penalty goals?

airmark:
I didn't go on a tangent, you even claimed that "Mbappe scored 20 non-penalty goals last season. That's only 6 more than Jackson", just to show that Jackson did well last season and even an Mbappe would have marginally performed better. I had to destroy that point before the likes of Lordfalcao and Timbros start to echo it - Mbappe's 11 non-pk's goals in 16 matches as CF, is what you should compare with Jackson's 14 goals in 35 league matches.





You kept on hammering on 100m as if my main choice - Dobvik is 100m. And Dobvik is not as wasteful as Jackson and will not give poverty numbers as he will bury most big chances unlike Jackson that hasn't even scored a goal for Senegal in like 14 matches.



Dovbyk is not £120m, you are arguing based on wrong information that I wonder where it came from. Probably, your love for Jackson jacked the striker's price up astronomically.

Sir, this is not a matter of opinion. I am telling simple FACTS with empirical evidence. Jackson did so well. I am not making it up.

Nicolas Jackson scored more goals in his debut season at Chelsea, than every other striker in recent history. And this stretches back to include JFH and TAF that preceded the Abramovic era. The only striker that beat him is Diego Costa, with only 6 more goals in his debut season.

This sort of analysis goes unspoken about, because we are more interested in making memes and pushing an agenda.

The question is can he be coached into being better and less profligate? Can the team structure itself and play better to allow him better these numbers?

This is the story of stuff we should be talking about, not asking us to buy Vlahovic for £80m.

The comparison with other players, is to put his debut season performance into perspective. I don't care if others played CF or not. Jackson also played in midfield, left wing, right wing, and defence many times, helping the team.

And yes, if we ever mentioned we want to buy Gyokeres and Dovbyk, they will quote us £100m.
