"Happy 118th birthday Chelsea Football Club 🎉🔹 •On this day in 1905• Chelsea was founded at the Rising Sun Pub, Fulham. • Just a year before that, businessman Gus Mears had purchased the Stamford Bridge athletics complex and was looking to turn it in to a football ground. Mears offered the ground to Fulham FC, which was founded in 1879, but the club refused his offer. • Undeterred, Mears decided to form his own club and debated calling it Stamford Bridge FC, London FC, or Kensington FC but eventually decided on Chelsea FC, naming the club after the borough adjacent to Fulham. • Chelsea spent much of the next century experiencing success primarily in cup competitions with their only top flight league championship before 2005 coming in 1955. • The club became known for signing big name players but never consistently experiencing big time success. • In 2002-03, Chelsea qualified for the Champions League by beating Liverpool on the last day of the season to finish fourth in the league. Many believe that had Chelsea not qualified that day, Roman Abramovich would not have purchased the club. Since Abramovich took over, the club has reached new heights and is firmly established as one of the elite clubs in world football. Happy 118th anniversary to Chelsea Football Club ! We've won it all! 💙" Where's poto poto in the picture?

My only problem with Osimhen is Nigerian age factor and price There are only 3 strikers in my time watching football that terrify defenders with brute strength. You will see defenders literally trembling anytime ball is played into the box, and any long ball that comes in sticks around in the box. Defender is never able to clear any aerial ball with these strikers around, either they will be pinned back, or the striker will bring the ball down, flick it on or nod it toward goal. You will see defenders literally shaking when the ball comes in. These 3 strikers are Christian Vieiri, Didier Drogba and Victor Osimhen |

Ibime:Which top team in modern football still play that type of football? If you fail to identify these teams, then your problem with Osimhen shouldn't just be Nigerian age factor but exactly what Havertz10 said about him. |

swiz123:Did I tell you that's the only style of football available to those strikers? How many goals did Drogba score under Ancelotti ultra-attacking style of football? I am describing a physical prowess that still counts under any style, same reason for almost half of Haalands goals this season, physically bullying niggas inside Pep system |

Ibime:Even though I only caught the tail end of his career and I was young, I could tell that Vieri was a terror. |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m): 6:27pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
Unlimited22:First match I ever watched live in stadium featured Vieiri, that was the Cup Winners Cup final of 1999. You could see defenders trembling at any ball into the final third, whether on the ground, in the air or a footrace. |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by A001: 6:31pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
Ibime:It might be easier to make this kind of inference in live games. |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by swiz123(m): 6:32pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
Ibime:Drogba had his biggest goal return and even that of a Chelsea player in a single season during that Ancelotti ultra attacking football style. The same system Haaland and Osimhen is benefitting from now. With the kind of shitty football we play, what exactly do you think Osimhen will achieve at Chelsea? Not even Haaland will do shitt here. |

swiz123:Many top strikers will struggle in the current Chelsea team primarily because of Potter's inexperience and cluelessness. |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m): 6:39pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
swiz123:Those strikers stil perform when the going is tough, as Drogba did. Not like your soft boys like Felix and Havertz that turn to eunuchs unless everything stew |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by swiz123(m): 6:41pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
Ibime:I saw how your Elephant performed when everything was tough. |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Ibime(m): 6:46pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
swiz123:With the few minutes he played, he still delivered 15 goals as against your Havertz with 7 goals playing almost every minute this season Besides Lukaku is not an aerial striker despite his height |

See the struggling Haaland topping the chart below. Where's Havertz that's not struggling in the league in the chart?

Verratti Pogba or Thiago who had the better career till date |

raumdeuter:None of them played in the greatest club in the world for 14 years, like your bag of beans that couldn't do what even Higuain did in a short spell in Madrid. You defended a bag of beans that had only one spectacular league season out of 20 seasons of his career. You are no different from those people attracted to defensive strikers, useless in front of goal. 😄😄😄 |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by airmark(m): 8:38pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
A001:We will not see Raumdeuter's shakabula Benzema here. 😄 |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by raumdeuter: 8:42pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
airmark:All the strikers that played for all the attacking teams in epl how many have scored more than 30 goals is it Aguero or Henry Ronaldo Lima, Nistelrooy, Raul all played as striker for Madrid how many times did they score more than 30 league goals |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by raumdeuter: 8:43pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
airmark:Check players who win the CL scoring over 12 goals in the CL season |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by drisham(m): 8:54pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
andrewbaba44:Some people just choose to be mad.. outside goals the mofo should tell me what football is about..if Chelsea were scoring goals will they be tenth ? So people just dey make me shame to support Chelsea with their nonsense take |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by Mikechinos(m): 8:57pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
raumdeuter:Pogba by a long mile. Thiago is slightly better than verratti career wise |

raumdeuter:When will your Benzema score 30 league goals in a season? Henry, Nistelrooy, Van Persie, Salah, Ronaldo, Etoo, Suarez, did before they retired. This is your Benzema's last chance in over 20 seasons. 😄 |
| Re: Official Chelsea Fan Thread: Club World Cup Champions 2025-2029 by raumdeuter: 9:05pm On Mar 10, 2023 |
airmark:Which season did Drogba score 30 league goals? How many of these scored 15 CL goals to lead their teams to CL glory |

OVA200:Which correction do you want me to acknowledge? I didn't ask you to list names of strikers for me. I simply asked what else you want from Halaand apart from goals? Clean sheets? |
