Even for 20million he should get lost. 12 straight game with zero goal and assist. Good riddance
Who are you recommending as his replacement?

@JacobSteinberg

‼️ Nicolas Jackson’s future will be up in the air if two strikers arrive.

It is understood Chelsea are open to offers for Noni Madueke.

Chelsea would listen to offers for Sanchez, Petrovic, Veiga, Chillwell, Disasi, Fofana, Dewsbury Hall, Chukwuemeka, Ugochukwu and Sterling.

One is using real age and may improve, one already has deformed legs using football age. If you are in doubt, let his online daddy, Nateevs, counters me.

Madueke can be sold provided we are replacing him with a better winger. If I may ask, who are you recommending ?
😂😂😂😂😂😂


To be fair, the winger (and striker, to an extent) market is a seller's market.

For context, Doku, Grealish and Savinho scored a combined 5 goals last season from a combined 78 apps.

I pointed it out many times, with a striker that can score 20+ goals we will challenge for the title as other players will contribute their bits to the goals needed. The last time City won the league, none of their wingers scored 5+ goals.

If we have those wingers with goals in them, bring them. Not Nico Williams that ghosted against United and only got 5 league goals this season.

I am opened to upgrading our attack as always, so who are we replacing our wingers with, assuring us of 10+ goals?

Prediction and actual reality were always going to be different nau lol.

If people think(predict) Madrid were going to win the UCL with the greatest coach in UCL history, best player in the world Mbape, best English midfielder since Lampard in Belingham with Balodor favourite Vini, why change that prediction in the middle of the season during arguments and call them the worst Madrid side in the last 10 years Lmao. Madrid wey strong.

Real Madrid were the outright favourite and quite rightly so. I also predicted them to not only win laliga but dominate and at least reach the UCL final. I'm actually disappointed in what they were able to achieve this season.

On Xavi, what does it mean to compete financially with top teams? Isn't it funds to sign the best players in order to be able to compete?

Xavi spent the whole 2023/2024 season complaining about DM when Casado was already there after Busquet refused to stay. Flick came and used same Casado to flog Bayern, flog Madrid 4:0. The young lad even gave a wonderful assist in that game. He eventually lost his place to Dejong and later got injured.

Xavi had the tools, but complained too much.

Between Xavi and Flick, who will you recommend to coach Chelsea if you were the director of football here?
flick had yamal and xavi took a falling apart barca to win the league with the same point flick just won it by. I won't deny that xavi brought in more players but those same players helped flick win the league. Xavi would have still won the league in place of flick, and xavi had right to complain because he didn't have a dm, none was brought in apart from some freebie cm to play dm roles.

Xavi promoted that yamal, casado, gavi not sure if he was the one that promoted Pedri but he literally built the current barca squad.

Instead of buying Gittens I'd rather give the chance to Tyrique George and sign Sancho and Ekitike. Gittens is a power dribbler he's one injury away from losing his explosiveness
stop that, instead of buying gittens we give the chance to tyrique george and paez, which yeye sancho.

gittens is the type of player you give one more year in bundesliga, he is still a better option than garnacho and same risk with nico william but you want us to spend 25m on Sancho instead of 50m on gittens?

Napoli won the league with a single point on the final day of the season in a game they had to win, not a game they had to keep a clean sheet.

If Napoli had drawn 0-0, they would have lost the title. This was also a season where they won because everybody else under performed.

That's why Napoli's 59 goals are the lowest scored by a serie A champion in the last 20 years. Napoli had the 5th highest goal scored this season Meanwhile 8 of the last 10 serie A winners finished in top 3 from Goals scored.

Napoli were lucky this season. It was a one-off in the same ilk of the likes of Atletico Madrid. Historically even in the league that gave us Cattenacio, what Napoli did this year is far from the norm.

You think you cooked, but you really just showed yourself to be an ironman illiterate - it's Stark.
lol ironically tony stark-ironman is the most brilliant mind in marvel on par with reed richard.

1. What is the bone of contention, like what's this discussion about from the moment it commenced? If you can answer this question then you'll understand the direction of your argument. You'll also understand that you're making my own point when you answer this question. However, if you can't then no problem as I'll help educate you on the whole process including excerpts from the same post you quoted.

2. Between Xavi and Flick who will you recommend as a coach as a sporting director of Chelsea.

right now not xavi, I would pick flick.

Your statement "Xavi had the tools, but complained too much." is unfair he had every right to complain.

1. That you didn't choose Xavi clearly made my whole point. It clearly shows that Flick is the superior coach.

2. Xavi had the tools, and thank God you mentioned some of the tools; yamal, Pedri, Gavi, Ralph Kounde etc but was busy complaining. A superior coach came, used same players(tools) won the double, defeated a strong real Madrid with the greatest coach in UCL history, best player in the world Mbape and was 70secs away from UCL final.

Same team Xavi relegated to Europa league with and couldn't even win lol.

As a coach, Xavi got work to do. He's average abeg.

I'll like to end the back and forth here.
t for tenks ✌️

There is nothing you will write about poch that will make me believe he was the right man.

Even Popizaino his staunch supporter who wanted him, when we were frowning. Surrendered after game week 3.
You're a CFC fan so your standards for your club should obviously be higher than mine for it. The contention was whether all CFCs problems were Poch's or external. I argued they were mostly external. Squad injuries, almost no input in recruitment plus imbalance in depth and quantity. Nobody has convinced me that your major problems were tactical. The same Maresca out chants still rang throughout this thread as well. In fact, any criticisms Poch faced at CFC, even worse could be levied at EM. The only difference is, Newcastle, Villa & Nottingham Forest derailed at an expedient time for CFC so ...UCL qualification.

As a non CFC fan, I'll say, I'm happy EM is your manager. I only have Slot to worry about this season in the EPL.

Ait Nouri moving to City

Finally a club befitting of the maverick leftback

But I hope Pep won't dull his dribbling ability like he did to Grealish

Performed miracles with Pedri, Olmo, Ferran, Yamal, Curbasi, Fermin, Garcia that won the Euros and Olympic last summer plus having kounde, Balde, Lewandowski etc Performed miracles with Madrid having only rudiger as their senior center back fit this season plus losing Carvajal to an Acl with vibes and inshallah as coach. If Flick performed miracles then there are no words to describe what Conte and Slot did this season.
Were those players not there when RM won La Liga with like 10 games to spare last season? The Spain squad that won Euros & Olympics didn't have RM players that Ancelotti should've coached to win & play like Flick?

You're capable of making stronger arguments than this.

Congratulations to the team for winning the conference league, not our regular competition but it's where we found ourselves. Great character from the players.
Congratulations to PSG too. It occurred to me that we've not had both teams score in the UCL final since the turn of the decade.

On a lighter note, by timeline, how do you think these events would occur:
Chelsea winning 3rd UCL
City winning 2nd UCL
ManU winning 4th UCL
Arsenal winning first UCL😂

Come down from that your EPL dick riding first,then you'll see clearly and we'll flow better.

PSG had almost everything over Liverpool.
why did they need penalties to beat Liverpool?
Why didn't they wipe them 5-0 like they did to Inter.
The same PSG you people are worshipping almost lost to Aston Villa.I wonder anything special in the PSG team...
Well I blame that bastard Inter Milan for all of this
