andrewbaba44:😂 The problem is James was not even Chelsea's best player that year and I doubt he was even in the UCL team of the tournament. So you can't but wonder why he keeps insisting that version of James is better than Hakimi. The fact is James had a lot of potentials to become what Emaprice thought he was, but the reality is different. |

I have never seen a goalkeeper as injury prone as Allison. |

One of the worst decisions I've ever seen from VAR. Goal disallowed for a handball when it came off Iheanacho's head. How the decision was not overturned is beyond me

Emaprince:Most people here don't have retentive memory, that's why a so-called Chelsea fan, Timbros, didn't remember that Lavia played 6 consecutive matches last season and how he improved our midfield play. Injury really dealt with Reecy and recency bias is a thing. |

popizaino:You just describe our styles of play and maresca's tactic in one sentence but I don’t like to be the type that calls for managers to be sacked at every struggle, especially young and upcoming coaches who are trying to build a name for themselves, every coach starts out as a rookie before becoming the veterans we celebrate today. If no one gave them a chance, we wouldn’t have the great managers we look up to now. But when we analyze things honestly, we need to admit that many of the trophies being used to defend Maresca were largely decided by individual brilliance rather than tactical input from the coach. Take the Conference Cup, for example. We were already on the verge of losing it until Cole Palmer produced his magic which resulted to two quick goals. Without that moment of individual brilliance, that trophy was gone. Then in the Club World Cup, yes, we showed signs of dominance in the first 10 minutes, but again, it was Palmer who made the decisive difference. That game could have gone either way too, if not for him. So, while many are praising Maresca because of those 2 trophies yes he deserves it, but the reality is those victories rested more on some individual players like Palmer and others, whose individual quality gave us the needed 3 goals. That’s why I fully support the statement highlighted above 💯 . |

Capaldi:Mr capper, you are making sense. These guys don’t know that there are some coaches who perform better in mid clubs. There are coaches whose philosophy is not to dominate the game, they prefer to Concede possession to opponents and glasner is on of it. Chelsea biggest mistake is to get Oliver glasner because he will take us 5-6 years back. He is a mid level manager. |

airmark:You nailed it. Na recency bias dey qorry them. Put reece in this PSG team. Even in this unfit state, he will still boss games. But why you bring in Timbros? you don turn to Reno omkri that will insert Peter Obi in matters between him and his estranged wife. |

I like Reece James. In 2022, City tried to lure him to be Kyle's replacement. His potential was very high no doubts. If he stayed fit & played for Pep, who knows what he becomes? But he's not Hakimi. Don't even waste your time blowing smokey arguments that will only murky people's views but have no lasting impression. A good player is tactically adaptable but a great player becomes the tactics. That's Hakimi when compared to Reece. Seems people don't see how Enrique uses him as ST, RW, CM, DM, RWB, RB in the same game. Whats more? He's like at least 8/10 in all those roles. Come on. Strength, pace, crosses, short passes, line breaking passes, diagonals, pull outs, being press-resistant and most importantly being fit; name it & Hakimi can claim it. Don't get me wrong, Reece has shown similar traits. But he's a 9 as a RB, 8 as a RWB & at best, 6 in the other attributes. There's no world where they are comparable today & even if we time-traveled back to when Reece was supposed to be at his peak, the output doesn't match the hype. Reece is good in many systems but Hakimi is a system on his own. The end. |

He dey give us positions Hakimi played in...as if Reece havent been used in a lot of positions and he cane out well. And unfit Reece even bossed the almighty PSG midfield. And he is just a rightback. Make una take several seats. |

popizaino:More than half of Crystal Palace team are born again Christians from their captain Joel Ward who just retired to Lacroix their Pastor, to Richards to Munoz to Jefferson Lerma to Nketiah to Guehi to Eze. These are good boys that fellowship together and give their all. Make Glasner come try am with the wereys we get for Chelsea like Garnacho and co. Even Jehovahs son Chalobah won't save him here. |

Always talking emotional nonsense as usual. You can win a game without dominating it. Scoring 3 goals doesn't mean you dominated. You won fair and square. You executed better. That's all.
