Why will he be a goner? You people say he has the worst squad so he is doing wonders keeping the team in the top 4 abi?
the Chelsea squad is more than capable of getting top 4,the the problem is they are not capable of competing in the two major completions at the same time(UCL&EPL),at the same time, so fatigue ,lack of motivation,injuries means they have to lose occasionally to the likes of westham,crystal palace,etc,na conte the board go use as scapegoat if we font win jack this season

Someone wants us to believe Pep inherited rubbish squad from Rijkaard with Spain's Euro-winning midfield of Xavi, Iniesta with Lionel Messi, Samuel Eto, Yaya Toure, Thierry Henry, Puyol, Abidal on deck. I just named 8 players that could arguably walk into a World 11.

Only thunder will fire Rijkaard for using this team to concede title to Capello with Guti, Jose Antonio Reyes, Julio Baptista, Emerson, Robinho and co.

Same with Man City, Pellegrini has always been a soft-spoken underachiever, a coach who grossly underachieved, and was actually a 3 year placeholder for Pep and had no power. Pellegrini severely underachieved just like Rijkaard. I am not saying this now, I have been saying it for years.

Pep has never inherited an underdog team. Anytime he is underdog, they whip him 5-0.
Unfortunately Raumdeuters goons have firmly bought into the Pep inherited a team filled with washed up players propaganda.....

That's not the point. The point is that every top team in the league have good players, with similar quality. If there is any difference, it's very marginal and inconsequential

Don't get swayed my specious arguments.

You want to compare RM team of 06/07 to Barca team of 07/08. Who does that?

RM team of 07/08 had Higuain, RVNistelrooy, Raul, Pepe, Sergio Ramos, Sneijder, Robben, Cannavaro, Guti, Marcelo etc and they played like a united front.

You hear "Euro winning midfield" for Ini and Xavi but don't realize they had finished 3rd 10 points behind 2nd place Villareal.

Nobody mentions that Ini was barely getting starts initially till Yaya got injured and Rijkaard changed formation.

Nobody mentions that Xavi played RM not CM as he became renowned for.

Nobody mentions that that team had Dinho and Deco who were starters. They have conveniently left them out to push their false narrative.

What about Leo? Might shock you to know, he barely outperformed...wait for it...Bojan Krkic that season (scoring only 4 more than him).

The team was in total disarray; lacked identity, could not run, with egos scattered all over the place.

Pep was announced May 2008 as Barca's next manager. He announced that Deco, Ronnie and Etoo won't feature in his plans. That Xavi and Ini (who were barely ever used together in midfield) will form the heart of his. That Sergio "Unknown" Busquets will play DM over Yaya or Edmilson (whom he showed the door to).

He brought Piqué back from United (a Piqué SAF preferred Jonny Evans over). Bought Dani to play RB/RWB.

Then, did the unthinkable: built his team around (16 goals the previous season in 40-some games) Messi.

Even if anyone wants to claim, they are Nostradamus and saw the star power in this ensemble, no fvcking person can tell me they saw a sextuple in this team.

Well, no other person but...Josep "Pepe dem" Guardiola.

Mata and Matic were deemed surplus, can we say same about Hazard? Mata and Matic were unhappy and wanted to move to United, unless you can tell me that Hazard is unhappy and wants to move.
Unless it's the agent that is offering the player, United won't join the race.

A top 5 finish is good enough IMO.Winning title(s) is like a 'booster' for your chances and not absolutely requisite.

Aubemayang was the top scorer above Lewy
Mane was in the TOTY in EPL
Salah was fantastic for Roma and Egypt
Aboubakar was phenomenal for Cameroon at the AFCON and Besiktas
Naby Keita was in the Bundelisga TOTY
Nigeria didn't even participate in AFCON.

Transfer window is fast approaching and Conte says Chelsea is (re)building, well City and United can claim that as well but compared to them Chelsea hasn't done a great job.


Since 2015, the past 5 transfer windows:


City have 13 players in the first team bought for 490m pounds over that period of time, average age of 25years and atleast 8 in their national team.


Man U have 8 players bought for 360m pounds with av. age of 25yrs and if not all atleast 6 in their national team.


Chelsea bought 11 players for 333m in that same period with av. age of 26yrs and just about 4 (highest 7) are in their national team.

Man of the match by Chelsea fans but the awardee is chosen by National Team captains and Coaches.

The BBC APOTY voted by fans he failed to win that.
2, as a defender, chelsea kept most clean sheet last season and won motm in couple of matches as a right back ahead of top players at chelsea, but somehow, he wasn't good enough?
He was only a piece in the puzzle. Thibaut, Alonso, Kante,Liuz,Azpi etc were also part of the back line.You can make your case more genuine if he had the most interceptions, most tackles,most aerial duels won and let's not talk about his bad crosses
3, if it's enough, why is ronaldo wining all the tittles while a messi with best individual perfromance bitting his boot?
How can you equate this scenario with that of Moses and the other attackers.How did you even ranked messi as the best individual performer?


but somehow moses wasnt fantastic for chelsea right?

Salah also qualified Egypt by scoring 5 goals and 2 assists,they only scored 7 goals FYI.

Aboubakar won AFCON and 12 goals in 27 matches for Besiktas to win the Super Lig

Auba finished highest goalscorers and won DFB pokal with Dortmund

Mane 13goals and 7 assists with < 25 starts

You talk too much negro.

Lets compare:

Striker - Eto vs RVN - clear win for Barca

Wingers - Messi and Henry vs Robben and Robinho - clear win for Barca

Central midfield - Xavi, Iniesta and Toure vs Emerson, Diarra and Guti - Unanimous win for Barca

And you used your lying fingers to type Sneijders name when Sneijder was going through depression and was overweight at Madrid, and not even in first team. Stop it.

Central defence - Puyol and Abidal vs Pepe and Cannavaro - marginal

Fullbacks - Marcelo and Ramos vs Beletti and Sylvinho - This is the only win for Madrid.

You think you can come here and lie. Only thunder will fire Rijkaard for losing to Madrid with this Barca team. They were not even close.

The same Sane that terrorized Madrid in the UCL as a teenager is the one some folks want us to believe is only playing well because of Pep...
Sterling on the other hand was one of the best players in Liverpool and after Suarez left, he was their go to man but some folks want us to believe he is only playing well cos of Pep...
Same Otamendi Man United tried to sign but was beaten to his signature is now an average defender cos people want to praise Pep.
Walker isn't as good as Valencia because it's an argument, I must not lose. When to be honest they are both brainless, often depending on pace and power rather than footballing IQ, even at that, Walker, scores more and assist more.
How on earth is current Ibra better than Aguero if not that it's an argument and as far as nairaland is concerned, it's an abomination to admit superior opinion in an argument. At this point in time, I'd love to see a coach who will even take Ibra over Jesus, very unlikely but folks look at United's bench and want to convince us that Ibra there is akin to the one that ruled series A when in all honesty he is past it.


To see how ridiculous this whole thing is, they want us to believe Mendy and Kompany are out injured and shouldn't be considered when comparing both teams or doing a combined 11 but they are talking about Bailly who is injured, Shaw and Ibra who have barely played this season...Kompany that walks straight to the starting 11 anytime he feels slightly comfortable to play is the one they want us to believe isn't good enough when in all honesty he is better than anything Manchester United have to offer. Or is Stones who is not better than Smalling? Last season, people castigated Stones because of his price tag (Same excuse most Man Utd fans make for Pogba) and a bid to get to Pep for his preference for ball playing CBs.
My guy spare me abegi. On that una very same Man Utd thread, you guys will use your hands and type stuffs like "Bailly >>> Otamendi", "Rashford >>> Kelechi", "Martial >>> Jesus", "De Gea >>> Courtois", "Pogba >>> Fernandinho". Then come back and start wailing that you do not have the best players. Isn't hindsight a bi.ac=tch!?

The other day, some United fans posted a fictional starting 11 list combo of Manchester United / Tottenham Hotspurs players. Guess how many Spurs players were in the list ------ 2 out of 11; and if I take silence to be consent, over half your fans on that thread agreed to that list!!! Only 2 Spurs were "deemed good enough" to displace Manchester United players if they were all up for selection on the same team.

Granted, there will always be bias as long as the team you support is involved but do not come afterwards and start claiming otherwise. In the name of loyalty to club, una go mes-kafon anyhow, then come back to wan begin dey from sensimilia wen hand don touch una!

you must be talking about balon d'or.
what is the criteria used in choosing the best player in africa? im pretty sure caf dont even know themselves? they just go with the hype.

The BBC APOTY voted by fans he failed to win that.
whose fault is it that egyptians voted more than nigerians.
why didnt mane win ahead of salah?
He was only a piece in the puzzle. Thibaut, Alonso, Kante,Liuz,Azpi etc were also part of the back line.You can make your case more genuine if he had the most interceptions, most tackles,most aerial duels won and let's not talk about his bad crosses
How can you equate this scenario with that of Moses and the other attackers.How did you even ranked messi as the best individual performer?
do you really want to turn it to a stat thing? cos i know couple of players with better stats than the players you posted, yet these players are not considered to be the best in the league.


Salah also qualified Egypt by scoring 5 goals and 2 assists,they only scored 7 goals FYI.

Aboubakar won AFCON and 12 goals in 27 matches for Besiktas to win the Super Lig

Auba finished highest goalscorers and won DFB pokal with Dortmund

Mane 13goals and 7 assists with < 25 starts
i never said moses deserves to win, i said he deserves the final cut.
ahead of salah atleast. salah might deserve to win everything after this season, but based on last season, moses deserves that position more.

seriously though, how is qualifying someone for a tournament (not that he won the tournament) become a thing you use in judging a player? what next, tell me erikson is the best player in europe because he qualified denmark for world cup and scoring most goals.
