Good day, guys.

There was a heated debate this afternoon on the sports segment of Fresh FM Ibadan about our team. The anchor asked: Between Tuchel’s team that won the UEFA Champions League against Manchester City and the current squad that won the Club World Cup against PSG, which squad is better?

The question split the opinions of the co-analysts into two. One group believes the 2021 UCL-winning squad is better, while the other argues that the current squad is more balanced, though there was unanimous agreement that Tuchel’s defence was stronger than the current one.
But when it came to deciding which overall team is better, the analysts and listeners who called in remained clearly divided.

Now, to my fellow Chelsea fans here, which team do you think is better, the 2021 UCL-winning squad or the current one?
Better squad is 2024/25 squad

speaking of comparing them, would be nice if maresca gives chilwell a chance to be cucurella's sub, he can be a better sub than gusto

2021 will edge it. But there some similarities

Timo Werner = Jackson.
Kante - Caicedo
Cucurella - Chilwell
Mendy saved us a lot, same as Sanchez

Very predictable.

Reason why I posted this earlier.

John Terry must be useless in 2012. He was a glory thief.
We all saw Terry's contributions in the tournament, but the memorable thing about Jackson was his stupid red card that was the final nail to his coffin as a starter at Chelsea. grin

The current squad is better, no debate at all.

In my opinion, the 2021 squad over achieved. People say the 2021 squad was balanced but the attack was just average (and the midfield was carried solely by General Ngolo) . We won majorly cos of defensive solidity. Mason Mount was the best attacking player in that squad (goes to show how poor that attack was)

I got my information from FIFA not Wikipedia.

FIFA made the announcement since Chelsea won the CWC trophy.

Yet after I corrected that day, you agreed with me that you did some research and agreed that I was in fact correct. This official news isn't up to an hour though

Anyways, this is good news for CFC. Nothing to go back and forth. grin grin

Honestly, when you look back at our 2021 team, the only real top-quality players were Kante,Thiago Silva, Reece James, and Mount. The rest were decent but nothing special just well-drilled under Tuchel’s elite tactics. Let’s not forget we still lost the FA Cup final that year. In terms of raw talent and balance, I think our current squad is stronger and still will achieve more in the future.

I agree. This team looks better but while Silva is the bigger name, Rudiger was better than him in 2021. So if you mention Silva, also mention Rudiger. Rudiger in 2021 is better than all our current CBs. Also Mr reliable Azpi.

Also don't forget Jorginho(UEFA best player/ bdor top3) wink

See how you omitted Rudiger despite his performance for your team that year

@ MorataFC
In my opinion, I believe this current squad will edge the 2021 team. The only department where I think the 2021 side had an advantage is the defence, the likes of Rüdiger, Thiago Silva, and Mendy were more solid and reliable than the options we have now.

@ MorataFC
2021 squad was far superior than this young team.

1. James better than Gusto in rb
2. Tiago and Rudiger better than Cowil and Cholabah at CB
3. Alonzo better than Cucurella at LB
4. Kante better than Caceido at CM
5. Mendy better than Sanchez


That's more than half of the team.

Chelsea's Nusken (scorer of the equalizer) misses! Omo the penalties in this tournament have been poor in general

Spain missed two in regulation time yesterday

Everybody must drop their FIFA Club World Cup on the table before the qualify to argue with a Chelsea fan henceforth.

Only Chelsea have officially won the CWC..not even Real Madrid.

I ain't arguing with fanbase that doesn't have club World Cup in their cabinet

It's crystal clear that Android dude is just a big hater hiding under the guise of 'fair analysis' to spread his agenda. This guy would have been here to gloat and even dig up posts to tell us how palmer is not 'that guy' had it been his embarrassing prediction came to pass.

I was expecting to even caution him that his apology be as loud as his disrespect but baba no even show face lol. Banter aside, that is a very weak character, weak mentality. You cannot be forming logical, painting your lopsided takes to be without bias and yet when you're proven wrong, you cannot even stand for yourself. Big shame!

Respect to every rival fan who was a good enough sport to acknowledge what we did on Sunday.

Sanchez was mendy plus creativity, so Sanchez edges it, chilwell was good in that game both offensive and defensive but cucurella stopped two or more clear psg goals, and for me neither James or gusto, cesar there's a reason that back three didn't concede against city in that game so I will go for three of them plus cucurella, since I am not using an attacking james or gusto playing rw, Cesar for RB.

I told you not to twerk for this PSG but you and your boy A40, didn't let me rest. If they sign a striker against next season you are in a bigger trouble. grin
When regular season starts let's see what happens. Shebi Cole Palmer that scored twice na striker. Okrimo

They comfortably won a treble while you're here jizzing your shorts over a glorified friendly.

When season starts garri will find it's level

She was so good at penalties while she was with us.

Sandy Baltimore and Oriane Jean Francois have had good tournaments too

Yeah, Berger was fantastic today, in regulation and in the shootout. France will be really disappointed, they should've won before it got to this point.
