This 19 year old Kees Smit from AZ Alkmaar that we are linked with is such an excellent CM/AM. He's got everything from work ethic, passing, dribbling and delivery

You saw this right. I have not seen such balance of every attribute in a 19yo CM/AM. The boy is already complete.

airmark:
Nothing is 100 percent correct as everyone has seen clearly how destructive your adopted boy, Jackson, is to our club. The striker position was immediately hacked after he disgraced himself in the Conference league final. Now we have Delap and Joao Pedro who claimed that he is more comfortable playing as a striker. If you think there wasn't conversation with him regarding his best position before we paid, then you must be clowning. Jackson has been subtly informed to leave or prefer to warm the bench next season.



Why we no kuku go and sign a striker from Niger Tornadoes for 50k, if we only need to rate players based on price tag?. This weird small-club mentality doesn't belong to Chelsea but to small teams like Sheffield utd, Norwich that can tolerate such mediocre performances. Which of Barca, Madrid, PSG, Bayern Munich will buy your jakujaku Jackson as their no. 1 striker?

Thank God the board members were in the stadium for that final and saw the terrible play that prompted them to quickly grab Delap, who is not afraid to shoot.



Your position was that in as many years Jackson is the only striker Chelsea bought. that scored more goals in his first season, so we didn't need a replacement. I'm not sure you are still standing by this poisonous view after a terrible season he gave us.

Man's not got time really.

airmark:


The energy you used to hype him at the beginning of the season is no more there. I remember how you put him above Guirassy, and asking me about his goals. Like I told you, season doesn't end in September or October.

Anyways, what's left for your boy after Joao Pedro said he would prefer to strike for us?

Guy, the energy I had even then was defending a position that is still 100% correct.

That firstly, Support cast is the most important thing. We've brought in 4 players for this. Gittens, Estavao, Pedro, and

And secondly, for 30m, Jackson outperformed his price tag.

I have not softened this position, neither have I walked away from it. Because I am not near every minute repeating everything I have said does not mean I stopped. It's like my view on Maresca as well.

airmark:

Even Egbon Nateevs don abandon the Jakujaku Jackson and Timbros can't remember the spelling of his name. He will be singing Akon's lonely, every night now.

Who abandoned Jackson? Why you speaking for me?

Griffon:
I love the way we’re moving in the transfer market this time.

You needed new attacking options after losing Sancho and Mudryk and you moved for Joao and Gittens, younger players with lot of potentials.

No be those years we dey pack condiments here and there, every signing of late has been a huge hit. We are now well stacked upfield, make we see what the season holds.

The support cast is finally coming into place.

Griffon:
I have read things about Ishe but haven’t seen his game. We need someone to come in for Cucu though. Man is getting overused.

I thought some mates were praising that CB from Stragbourg the other day. We are yet to see him in action. DM? When we have like three already.

I believe the goals will come from everywhere and everyone. No be we forward four past Benfica with four different scorers?

I will say Ishe is little bit behind. It's most likely to be Jorrel Hato coming in.

popizaino:
Hazard debut.

Played from the right, got and assist and worked a penalty.

That's how you introduce wingers. You don't placed right in left and left in right. It makes them automatically lazy.

https://www.facebook.com/share/r/1C2nL5rFLz/

Popizaino, the defender of extreme data. Never mind 90% of the goals Hazard went on to score for Chelsea came from the left. Let's just stick with 10% data accuracy and extrapolate.

Ibime:
So what should be done?

Thin line between life and death at this point. It all depends on the speed. Anything over 90mph, and you are going to flip for sure

Hold the steering wheel firmly. No weaves, no brakes.

This happened to me down the M4 coming from Windsor to London many years ago. I was doing only 85mph. I panicked and touched the brakes, skidded and did 360 twice from fast lane to the barrier in secs, then flipped twice over the hard shoulder.


But bruh..... where you bin dey do 176kph? The M6?

Oh man! RIP Jota.

Enzo5:
as someone that ran long distance, I will tell you that lazy people don't have the stamina to run long distances if you run very fast over a short distance you have to catch your breath, and you can't run for long if you run very fast and you know enzo is not slow, yet he burns all that energy and still has vision of the time and level head to play those key passes, he is a central midfielder and not a defensive midfielder

I don't think he's lazy. He just looks lazy. What he is, is that he lacks the necessary pace in offensive and defensive positions, and lacks alertness required for press-resistance as a midfielder/attacker in the PL.

He's not a bad player. He's just the wrong PL fit and he's holding back our dynamism. That's why I would collect £100m for him now.

Enzo5:
Airmark this guy seems to say he was signed to play midfield, attacking midfielder.

Joao Pedro: “I am a technical player, I love to score, but also when I was younger I played midfield too, so I can give pass to my team mates, so let’s say quality, technical player”

When I told you that Pedro was prime to play in a double 8 system, you thought it was a joke. If you see Pedro's profile, and watch how he plays, you would understand he's the perfect combination of what we went looking for in Felix, Nkunku and Enzo.



---------------Caicedo--------------

-----Palmer--------------Pedro----

Kudus---------Delap-------Gittens



Thus is based on last season's tactics.

If Maresca is bold enough to drop Enzo and play like this, he will see a significant improvement in our attacking output.

That said, I watched replays of the CWC games and I see that he's trying a new system of play with one attacking FB, instead of said FB inverting into midfield, so what I have up there might not be the primary set up.

airmark:
Timbros and co wasted my time arguing nonsense for months, now they have scampered for safety because of the impending vociferous attacks.

Apart from the no 9 position, which other positions did you request upgrading over the last season?

I like the Nairaland Palmer v Foden beef, even though I love both players.

PDPGuy:
My preferred formation for next season

————————-Petrovic————————

—R. James——Chalobah—-Tosin——Cucurella—-

———————-Lavia—-Caicedo——————-

—————————Palmer———————-

——Neto—————Delap————-Gittens——

Yes, I trust Palmer to do a more dynamic job as a CAM than Enzo, as he is definitely the much pacier player

Correct sentiment about Enzo. Exactly what I said in my last post. I prefer to have Morgan deputise in that role, but it's looking like it will be Pedro now.



My instinct is telling me that Maresca will stick with double 8s and one 6 as the primary formation, due to Lavia's fitness issues. As a result, expect to see this often.

—-Caicedo——

—--------—Palmer—————Pedro——————

——Neto/Estevao——Delap————-Gittens—

Iran was defeated.
They could not even fly their fighter jets in their own country.

Clown. You don't even know what you are talking about.

Look at what these crazy psychotic idiots are discussing on TV. Yet their supporters will come out saying they were minding their own business, before shit can their way.

https://youtube.com/shorts/EruyCA024N4?si=JoAf0r-1OkKI2_7P

First, the self delusion that they defeated Iran, and now the insanity that next is Turkey

cococandy:
The end goal is for citizenship to be for only white people including white immigrants. Any other person is not considered American.

Be you the OG American like Native Americans, or descendants of enslaved people who had no choice but to be born here, or children of legal immigrants like our children who were born here, etc etc. if you’re brown or black, the end goal of all this nonsense is to make you understand that you’re not American.

The stupid immigrants supporting them here all this while because they thought they’re special since they are legal will have their eyes opened when they come for their citizenship too. I truly despise stupid people because none of us needed a prophet to tell us this was the end goal.

You truly cannot be a sensible human being and watch them stereotype brown immigrants as “illegals” and think they are not making that sweeping judgement about all brown people with an accent.

I literally couldn’t believe I was being called a fear monger when I said the plan was to come for all immigrants. It wasn’t a special prediction that one needed a crystal ball to see. It was the obvious end goal.

There was no fear-mongering. Some of could see this clearly from a mile away. They want a white America.

I hope the black men cheering this party on don't get a post-election Hispanic-style rude awakening.

Get into Uber or Taxi business.

U.S. House of Representatives passed H.R. 875, the Jeremy and Angel Seay and Sergeant Brandon Mendoza Protect Our Communities from DUIs Act of 2025, on June 26, 2025, with a vote of 246-160.. All 160 votes against were from Democrats. This bill, introduced by Rep. Barry Moore, amends the Immigration and Nationality Act to make noncitizens convicted of or admitting to driving while intoxicated or impaired deportable and inadmissible, regardless of whether the offense is a misdemeanor or felony. It has not yet been passed by the Senate or signed into law

This bill is not in good state. Affects green card holders it seems.

Do you think this is a good thing?

Strike Set Back Iran’s Nuclear Program by Only a Few Months, U.S. Report Says
Preliminary classified findings indicate that the attack sealed off the entrances to two facilities but did not collapse their underground buildings.

Absolutely nothing accomplished. Israel now begging for seize-fire. Back to status quo. Except all tables turned.

The US and Israel lost diplomatic trust. There will/can be no good-faith negotiation, and Iran will now go on and build the bomb, knowing that nuclear deterrence is the only way forward.

In pursuing this insane strategy, Israel has allowed Iran strongly reveal to the world what many of us have thought for a while - that Israel is a weak state without the US and are only typically good at fighting farmers, militants, women and children. Moreso, they typically have no war strategy that does not include the US.

Uranium enrichment not destroyed, IAEA kicked out, they move the whole programme several hundred feet further into the ground, and Iran probably leaves the NPT altogether.

To think that before this nonsense, there was a deal in place that ensured 3% enrichment, Iran has won and Israel has egg on its face.

IMAliyu2:
Mamdani in the lead for round 1.

I'm hope pilled
New yorkers are not disappointing.

Boy will have to start wearing a vest if he wins, both the corpo dems and republicans will be against him.

In other words AIPAC against him.

I am glad he won. Not all those Israeli "my first visit will be to Israel" apologists.

Na who block that goal?

IjeBos:
Problem with MAGA.
Reality doesn't often match propaganda.

What do you think Iran would get in for selling oil.
Cash, lots of it.

I remember all the talk about giving piles of cash to Iran.

Hehehe. He let China but oil from Iran!!!!! 😀😀😀😀😀😀

Clown.

Those that support this guy need help. I swear.

bemeruca:
When you tell a mad mad that he is mad it is not an insult 😂

Russia and Ukraine usually do not sign documents, they simply just reach agreements. Iran and Israel both agreed to a ceasefire, but Iran violated it.

You are a liar. Not even Trump said Iran violated.

Konkoja:
Do you think TDS is some form of insult?😁😁😁

For your information, I wear the badge of TDS with pride - Trump is a liar, a charlatan, a fraudster and a convicted felon.

Where is the ceasefire agreement signed by both Iran and Israel? How tight was the agreement that didn't last a day - such a great deal maker 😁.

Seriously, every single one of them genuinely believes that it is an insult. The cult-like behaviour is extremely astonishing. ⁸

IjeBos:
This is an absolutely terrible decision.
The Supreme Court is broken and seems to think individuals are disposable.

Let's leave aside the message it sends to the rest of the world that the US Govt. can send people to foreign gulags.
What happens if a US citizen is "mistakenly" caught, rapidly "deported" without due process to appeal their "deportation", to a 3rd country that is mired in a civil war and dies there. Will an after the fact lawsuit going to bring that person back?
Or what happens if the person is there, the courts finally rule and say that he was mistakenly deported, yet a civil war has broken out and the US has not means to return him?

What is the balance in the rush to "deport" someone vs. the time it takes to give them due process to make sure they are not meant to be deported?
What is also the desire to visit cruel and unusual punishment on people by deporting them to dangerous places where they can be killed?
That seems inconsistent with the Constitution's ban on cruel and unusual punishment.


I grew up, maybe because of the Warren Court, believing the courts were supposed to give voice to the powerless.
That seems the opposite of what is happening now.
History is going to remember the Roberts court poorly.

This was always the plan. Nullify the powers of the court for the larger agenda - perpetual stay in office.

Watch this space. What's happening now would feel like child's play to what is coming. They will go full-on radical.

HeHehe. You know how sideways things have gone when Trump himself is confused about WTF Israeli is doing.

Sorry Trump, but this is what we have been saying. Israel wants WAR, at all costs. Except they don't want to fight it themselves.

The problem is, like I have said many times over several posts, as far as Israel is concerned, Iran is a certified near-peer, and will not take sh1t lying down.

Israel have believed their own "perceived" invincibility for far too long. Iron Dome is on holiday.

A40:
Abeg leave all this your story for tortoise. Jews are perfectly fine in Iran so fine their population went from almost 100k under the Shah to less than 10k now.

Anyway where was this smoke for Barack O'bomber. The greatest bomber of all time whose damage in Syria, Yemen and Libya is still visible till today

TDS has made you people embrace all types of illogic. You really think a Democrat president would not side with Israel in this war as well?

And yes stop Simpin for the Mullahs. Nothing good has ever come out of it and if you think I'm lying ask the Commies in 1979 what was their lot

So you went and looked up Iranian Jews. You didn't know before. Only problem now is you are leaving an implicit reason for the population decline for plutus intentions. You are not citing anything newsworthy. Jew population around the world has not increased over time in any country outside of Israel. There's no need to make it synonymous with Iran. It's no news.

The fact remains that there are Jews in Iran. And multiple synagogues inside the country with no issues. If Iranians are so intent on shipping out Jews, where would they start from? You guys are so bent on forcing down your political lies and hate down the throats of facts.


You don't know my views on foreign policy. I am not a Dem. I side with logic. I don't care about Obama's bombing. I was anti-middle-east wars, all of them completely, as I was with Libya's. And yes, I call Joe Biden genocide Joe because of Gaza. So your TDS proclamation means nothing to me.

Ibime:
Keep hoping on a site no one has visited, and if they do, F35s will greet them

The site is dead, it will take years to reopen and if they do, bombs will revisit them again, so mission accomplished

More inclined to believe USA who built that weapon for that site and have tested it under those conditions than Iran who haven't been to the site to assess damage

Currently, no one, including the IAEA, can assess the underground damage at Fordow - IAEA

Like I said, it's possible Iran had moved Nuclear material but they can't just restart under current conditions and like Netanyahu said, they have intelligence on their location, but as for the Fordow site, it's out of action

I had your initial thoughts in quote. I see you have more information since then, and you edited it.

It's good I am not the one "buying the lies that they moved materials" like you said I would.

Now we are finding out that Russia knew about the bombings, and by extension Iran knew.

I stated earlier that anyone who worked in Intelligence for a minute knew that Trump was going to blow up the place. My theory is that Iranian intelligence would have would have had multiple informants (especially in this porous US dispensation), embedded within US intelligence and would have advised on worst- case scenarios. Iran would have acted long before. No lies.

It's now apparent that Trump is playing a game between lying to AIPAC, MAGA, the Intelligence community and the large world at the same time.

RUSSIA was informed about the impending attack, and we can imagine by extension Iran. Meanwhile y'all are having a heart attack here supporting Trump.

They knew the B2 bombers couldn't do the job. He knew. He was briefed.

The real question is, to what end?

Ibime:
Damage wetin. More like Damage control. Get your JCB ready. A lot of digging is needed

As usual you will buy their story that they moved some nuclear materials but where dem want site am now with their skies an open field for the Israelis and shortly the US.

So..... damage assessment. Like I told you about celebrating early. Where do we stand?

E be like say B2 SatNav had the wrong postcode.

Satellite imagery now showing that nothing do Furdow. IAEA reporting no radiation at site.

$350m wasted.

Guy, you said women are being hung for not wearing head cover. You repeated it multiple times. And quite frankly, it is not the first time you have said over the years. Where are the women who were hung for not wearing a hijab?

You are showing me a link that is synonymous with a US Police shooting for the wrong reasons.

You are a clown. Asking me to do my research. You think I went to Google right now, just like you, to defend my position? Where are the women that were hung for not wearing Hijabs?

Give it a go.
