That means he settled for less

His next move should have been to an A grade team

Sure..but he's not like he had a lot of options bar staying another season at Nott forest
Liverpool, Man city and Arsenal are stocked with midfielders, Man UTD has no European football and probably does not have the finance for midfielders...Chelsea has a lot of midfielders right now so it's not a priority position leaving Spurs...

Sportsweb:
‼️ Chelsea have sold Mathis Amougou to Strasbourg, and the 19-year-old midfielder will sign a 5-year deal, 6 months after joining Chelsea for €15m.

~ @lequipe

Looks like he was always destined for Strasbourg from day one hence Maresca never bothered to give him game time even in walkover Conference League games

Maybe Blueco didn't want Strasbourg to approach St Etienne direct

So, Nedved was best player in Europe without the Ucl. When was your kponkpon defender the best player in Europe?

Where was Thiago Silvas best player award and where is the multiple CL won on the field or world cup

Thing about signing for Spurs at his age is he will finish his best days there. At 25 turning 26, he should have been making his big move that will fill his trophy cabinet. Looks like his will be a career unfulfilled. I think City were sniffing round him earlier before the Cherki deal so he is a candidate for the top clubs, just that his timing is off. If I were him I'd wait one more year than move to Spurs. Moving to Spurs is a death sentence for a player hitting the prime of their career. Levi go lock you down there and frustrate you. Who will remember Son career?

There is no point in Maresca asking our attackers to be pressing their CB.

Our attackers should help our midfielders press their their midfielders.

Neto should drop deep and stop Hakim from bumping forward and the same should be applied in the opposite side.

We need more men in the midfield. No slick passes.No passing out from the back. Just direct
and forward passes only.

As you said the timing is wrong with most top team stacked with midfielders...Another thing to consider is that this is a world cup year, Nott forest over performed last season, with more teams strengthening and Forest losing some of their best players along with European commitments, there's nothing to guarantee they're not dragged into another relegation battle which will do his world cup chances no good..Spurs can offer CL football meaning increased visibility in a world cup year

Like other great defenders like Cannavaro, Nesta, Terry, Vidic, Ramos, VVD, he made Fifa best 11 more than once. Your kponkpon defender couldn't reach that level and your other calamitous Boathand couldn't even make it once.

Sanchez

James Chalobah Colwil Cucu

Caceido Santos/Lavia

Palmer

Neto Delap JP


We can outscore them with this.

Cannavaro World cup win
Nesta CL and world cup win
Vidic CL win on the field
Boateng CL wins on the field world cup win on the field
Terry CL win not on the field, world cup embarrassment

Spot the odd one out

Ibime:
Miechonu dia, stop trying to mention Enzo with Vitinha. Vitinha is everywhere controlling the game while Enzo is absent, only thing he does is run into the box and take 5 mins to get back into midfield

so you will just sit down and set timer to know it takes 5 mins to get back to midfield, no wonder you don't know what happens in the game

chalobah won't start ahead of tosin and neither would a missing lavia nor santos who is supposed to be enzo's sub start instead of enzo

what kind of negative mindset do you have self, instead of expecting chelsea to play their best, you want the forwards to drop deep out of fear and play midfield so who will score, who will they play the direct pass to

lol una just dey disrespect Enzo Fernandez. no be una fault

There's a reason for every inclusion and omission.

Because of pace I will start Chalobah ahead of Tosin.

To ensure defensive solidity I will start Caceido and Santos/Lavia. Palmer's creativity in the hole for swift transmission, turning defence to attack, is needed. Enzo can come in the 2nd half, when the tempo is a bit down.

you realize using 2dms would also mean maresca pushes cucurella into attack more often, so while you have caicedo and santos in dm roles you have santos and colwill face off doue in case of counter attack

Then for chalobah having more speed, don't you think maresca would be silly to play a high line against PSG of all clubs, by the way isn't tosin a better central defense than chalobah

Because I said Chalobah has more speed doesn't mean we play high line. There will be moments our defenders will be caught out of position and your pace will help you cover up. Didn't Jakujaku Jackson play a wrong pass in the middle and Fluminense nearly scored?

You play conservative football yet very threatening with swift attacks. It's based on instructions.

All these predictions, premonition, line ups, chalobah with speed only to collect 3:0 first half. This thread won't contain us on Sunday 😂😂

Even if you play 4DM, 10 Centerbacks and two goalkeepers, Psg will still flog you wotowoto.

Sportsweb already tell una say nor hope against Psg yet Enzo and others still dey drop line up, predictions and premonition. One said they will outscore Psg

The only way we can win on Sunday

Even if you bring back prime makelele and lampard to your midfield on Sunday, you will still lose. There's no way you can win anything.

It won't stop you from getting flogged by Psg. The earlier you realize you will get disgraced, the better for you .

Fear is when you drop deep and begin to pass back.

drisham:
Psg will harm us from the wing

I doubt we can cope with Kvara/hakimi press

Mendez doue press

Plus Sanchez will be pressed by dembele


If we manage to survive the first half

We might stand a chance

Absolutely spot on. Surviving the first half against PSG is more than just weathering the storm, it’s literally the key to tame them.

Why? Because PSG often throws everything at you in the opening 45 minutes. That’s when they press the hardest, stretch the field the widest, and try to kill your rhythm early. If they don’t break you then, their intensity usually drops in the second half and then the teams with tactical discipline can punish them.

Styles make fights.

We need strength and ball winners in that middle and swift transition to catch them unawares at the back. Enzo should come in the 2nd half to finish up and shame you as usual.
